Crab farming has become an integral part of aquaculture in the country. This practice began in the early seventies when some fishpond operators in Bicol‚ Visayas‚ and Southern Tagalog started to culture crab as a subsidiary crop in milk fish or bangus ponds. The crab species Scylla serrata is the biggest and most important member of the family of edible crabs in the Philippines. Mud crab‚ or alimango‚ is considered a delicacy and has become a popular fare in seafood restaurants. It is sought for

Why does Antarctica matter? In a world where so much importance and attention is focused on factors‚ which impinge directly on our day to day existence‚ be it the refugee crisis‚ the European referendum or concerns regarding global food shortages‚ it can be easy to underestimate the importance of Antarctica. Antarctica is unique. Antarctica is larger than Europe but the only continent that doesn’t have many permanent residents living within its boundaries‚ with only 1‚000 to 5‚000 people a year

141 Chapter 3 Stable Isotope Fractionation In 1913‚ Sir J.J. Thomson found that the element neon has two different kinds of atoms with atomic weights of 20 and 22‚ respectively. This was the first experimental proof of a hypothesis by F. Soddy that different atoms might occupy the same place in the Periodic Table. Soddy named these atoms isotopes‚ which in Greek means equal places (Soddy‚ 1913). For his experiments‚ Thomson used a so-called ‘positive ray apparatus’‚ a predecessor of today’s mass

Solder (/ˈsoʊldə/‚[1] /ˈsɒldə/[1] or in USA /ˈsɒdər/[2]) is a fusible metal alloy used to join together metal workpieces and having a melting point below that of the workpiece(s). Soft solder is typically thought of when solder or soldering is mentioned‚ with a typical melting range of 90 to 450 °C (190 to 840 °F).[3] It is commonly used in electronics‚ plumbing‚ and assembly of sheet metal parts. Manual soldering uses a soldering iron or soldering gun.Alloys that melt between 180 and 190 °C (360
