of attention due to the efficient manner in which it gets to produce electricity. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is a method introduced in 1881 that employs naturally occurring temperature differences between warmer water and colder deep seawater (Thomas‚ 1993). Since its main source‚ which is water‚ is freely provided by nature. OTEC can be a feasible source of cost effective renewable energy in tropical coastal regions that have high shipping costs for fuels and goods. II. OTEC

different levels of salinity. We found out that the higher salinity in the growth medium the better the halobacterium grows. Background Information- Halobacterium is a bacteria that is found in the great salt lake. Halobacterium is an extremeophile which means it thrives in extreme environments. In this case the extreme environment is an extremely salty environment. Question- How does salinity affect the growth of halobacterium? Hypothesis- I think that the higher the salinity of the growths medium

WATER LOGGING AND SALINITY PROBLEMS AND ROLE OF NGOS M. H. Panhwar The water logging and salinity problem is highly complex‚ when it comes to actual execution in the field. In general the main factors involved in water logging and salinity control need highly to chronological efforts for the success of programme. Causes of Water Logging. Water logging is caused by rising water table and this in turn is mainly caused by irrigation. Irrigation waters invariably contain some amount of salts‚ which

differences for the density were used to calibrate the average density data for the water‚ seawater‚ methanol and the pennies. Part III. Results and Discussion: In spite of the fact that density relates two distinct sorts of measurements‚ mass and volume‚ it bears a number of the attributes of the relative connections between mass standards that were detected in the lab. The densities of the water‚ seawater‚ methanol and pennies were obtained by calculating the ratios of their mass and volume values

Countries like Australia are beginning to see the devastation of increasing salinity levels after a relatively short period of introduced European farming methods. Nature dealt reasonably successfully with salinity levels in Australia prior to European settlement. Natural vegetation‚ including deep-rooted trees‚ ensured that salts were dissolved as rainwater slowly filtered down through the soil

IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON COASTAL AGRICULTURE OF BANGLADESH Introduction Climate change (CC) is the most alarming issue facing the world today. The consequences of climate variability and climate change are potentially more significant for the poor in developing countries .The impact of climate change on agriculture will be huge and substantive. Coastal people are highly exposed to a range of natural hazards‚ from storms and cyclones to widespread flooding and coastal erosion. Table: Potential

In The Truth about Ocean “Acidification”‚ by Patrick Moore‚ the term “ocean acidification” has been fabricated‚ and people do not see the positive effects it has on marine life. In 2003‚ many articles on ocean acidification were published. Moore challenges one of the article’s hypothesis that corals will cease to grow by mid-century‚ and ocean acidification will impact fisheries worldwide. Moore emphasizes that there are five key reasons why the ocean acidification narrative is a fabrication. First

How will the winter and summer seasons affect the temperature distribution in the water column? -Coastal waters are those relatively shallow water areas that adjoin continents or island.
