thawing permafrost (Galloway et al. and InSAR Workshop Summary Report). Recently‚ detection of subsidence areas is determined by Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar‚ InSAR. This technique is beneficial in determining minute changes in ground topography. Furthermore‚ the case study of subsidence in the Wellington Oil Field in Long Beach‚ CA. is of great interest in the study of subsidence and remediation measures. The first cause of subsidence is aquifer system compaction‚ which is the compaction

35. What is the difference between a ’’ and a ’’? Describe what metal speciation is. How do the master variables of the environment relate to speciation? Why is speciation important in contaminant transport and in biological contexts? If you had to pick a third “master” variable‚ what would it be? Why is chemistry vital to understanding biological systems? Species refers to the form that a metal takes in the environment. This form can be a cation (ex: Fe2+) or anion form (ex: N3-)‚ or just a bonded

Breast cancer is a frightening disease. It can be fatal‚ and while two thirds of the cases occur among mature women‚ it also strikes younger females and about nine thousand males each year. The fear generated by breast cancer is intensified by the somewhat shocking reality that breast cancer has actually increased over the last fifty years. In 1940‚ a woman had a one-in-twenty chance of developing the disease‚ while today one out of every eight women will get breast cancer. According to the National

that occupy such beautiful nature. In Florida‚ there are an estimated amount of 700 springs‚ which represents the largest concentration of freshwater springs on Earth. (My Florida‚ 2009) Florida springs are formed because of the porous limestone topography. Springs are areas where water flows directly from the aquifer to the surface‚ supplying flow to a river or other water body. Springs are classified by their flow rates‚ with a first-magnitude spring producing the greatest amount of water‚ averaging
