The Effect of Global Warming on Thermohaline Circulation Kabir Rao1 [1] Industrial activities‚ such as fossil fuel burning and other human activities such as tropical deforestation have increased greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. Increasing global temperatures are likely to have extreme effects on global climate and may result in species extinction‚ changes in agricultural production and deleterious effects on health. Studies have been conducted in recent years on the effects of

larger negative impact on the environment. The burning of coal contributes more CO2 emissions than the burning of natural gas derived from fracking. This combined with other statistics may make it seem as if this “natural” gas has little detrimental effects to nature. However‚ increasing research has brought to light various hazards of fracking for natural gas can cause.

Many psychologists have researched into the effect of day care on both aggression and peer relations in children. Day care is a form of temporary care not given by a family member or someone known to the child. It usually takes place outside of the family. There are many forms of day care but the most common ones are nursery and childminders. Some research has shown that day care has negative effects on the social development of infants‚ however most importantly several factors have been identified

The investigation into the effect of social facilitation on the performance level within the Stroop effect. Abstract The relationship between social facilitation (first discovered by Triplett in 1898) and the issue of interference within the Stroop effect were investigated. Fifty participants were recruited and took part in a repeated measures design. Participants were given a list of congruent and incongruent words in single and paired situations. The overall findings of this study suggest

Most people are not intellectually gifted at all‚ and most people strive to learn to become wiser and more informed about the world around them. Studies show that listening to classical music can have positive effects on learning and attitude. This occurrence is called the Mozart Effect‚ and it has been experimented by many scientists. Different types of music have different effects on the mind. The earliest

It was this type of research that inspired others and prompted them to conduct research of their own in this area of study‚ and that is exactly what was done for this laboratory experiment as well. The overall hypotheses for this experiment were‚ as expected‚ conclusive with the results‚ however‚ there was a discrepancy in the hypothesis of experiment two. The comprehensive hypotheses for this experiment were that in each experiment‚ there would be a significant effect in reaction

Hawthorne Effect has been described as "the rewards you reap when you pay attention to people" (Maslow‚ 2005). George Elton Mayo conducted the Hawthorne Studies with the intention of bringing about a greater understanding of the effects of working conditions on worker productivity. The results of these studies turned out to be contrary to the management theories of the times but were important in creating an understanding of motivation factors in workers. "The studies have had a profound effect on the

Quantum physics: The photoelectric effect What is the photoelectric effect? The photoelectric effect is when a clean metal surface emits electrons after light‚ especially ultraviolet‚ has been shone on at it. This happens because of a process called photoelectric emission whereby a single photon package of electromagnetic energy‚ called a quantum‚ is absorbed by metal surfaces. This energy is then transferred to one single electron which can then be released by the metal and that released electron
