This paper is about comparing flood policies in the United States and the Netherlands. How both countries are taking different approaches to a similar situation that both faces. Especially with the rising waters from global warming. This paper looks at what is causing these two different approaches. Is something domestic going on in the United States and the Netherlands that is leading to this result such as economics or public opinion? The research in this paper is intended to help solve this important

Effective and economical production of hydrocarbons has gained great attention worldwide due to the increasing demand for oil and the challenges oil companies face to deliver more oil from their oilfields. Water flood is generally used as an economic and effective method in secondary mode recovery after primary (natural) driving mechanisms have been depleted. Generally, water flooding still leaves behind 60-70% of the oil initially in place (OIIP) inside the reservoir and Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
The Effects of Political Using Maps Maps hold their own great power. Knowing where people, goods, and ideas are is of immeasurable value. As most powers of this magnitude are, the government has a say in it, regulating and producing them. The government’s involvement with maps is undeniable, especially our own.

University in Canada, and his colleagues almost accidentally came across the Northern Pseudoscorpion “Wyochernes asiaticus” while working on a research project. Northern pseudoscorpions reside in rocky areas along creeks and rivers such as Sheep Creek in the Yukon, where Buddle and his team collected the specimen. These areas are not only extremely cold, but they flood each spring, for two to seven days at a time. Knowing that only about four specimens had been collected previously, Buddle was determined
