Review of Subduction Slabs Study: From a variety of observations Prepared by: Yang Yang September 25, 2014 Abstract Subduction zones are sites of convective downwelling of Earth’s lithosphere, which provides the dominate force of the driving force for mantle convection. It is through subducted slabs that oceanic crust and sediments, including volatile compounds are recycled back into mantle. Studying subduction slab is one of the most important parts of studying lithosphere dynamics. There have

daily life style, personal medical care, individual heredity ad lastly environmental settings (Shi, 58). Life expectancy have drastically increased in the past two decades thanks to advanced medical services. In order to enhance life expectancy and lower premature deaths in the United States, it is crucial to have medical care available and easy access to health care services The Center for Disease Control has announced that approximately 50 percent of premature deaths relate to lack of access to medical

Republic of Congo, it’s also possible to refer to the Congo as a geographical location varying as a general location, a rainforest, a river, or a river basin. The Congo River is also known as the Zaire river and the world’s deepest river and due to its depth, it gives the wildlife plenty of places to live but the main use for the Congo River was for hydro power. The Congo river, also known as the Zaire river, originates from an ancient society dubbed, “Kingdom of Kongo” where the river receives its

Introduction Of the 70 percent of Earth that is covered in water, approximately 60 percent is deep ocean, which measures a depth of about 10,000 meters. The deep ocean is characterized by a hydrostatic pressure 400x atmospheric pressure at sea level and temperatures dropping well below 4 degrees Celsius (Danovaro et al. 2014). Furthermore, the depth of light penetration is approximately 200 meters. The pelagic, or open ocean, zone constitutes an area that is neither close to the top nor the bottom

the right temperature and pressure conditions to undergo partial melting (Grotzinger and Jordan, 2010). At high temperatures and low enough pressures, rocks would reach its melting point easily. It is known for a fact that temperature increases with depth

are close to what we would expect in terms of canopy density for an Oak Savanna. This areas, like the ones in the Northwestern part of the Southwestern Grady Oak Savanna and the northern half of the Green Prairie present percentages of canopy cover lower than 50%. However, most of the area analyzed presents a percentage of canopy density bigger than 50%, with some areas presenting values ranging as high as from 86% to 99%. The southern part of the Southwestern Grady Oak Savanna is one of them. The

Sperm whales use “rapid pulse trains and creaks when they dive to great depths” (Jones 2005). The creaks, as mentioned by Jones (2005), are “associated with rapid body movements [by the whale] suggestive of pursuit of prey” (Jones 2005). These whales utilize the rapid pulses when closing in on their prey to hone in on the finer details, almost identical to the terminal phase of bats. Dolphins can produce a variety of different sounds for different purposes. Each individual sounds different, and

Key Meteorological Data: The determination of the weight of the atmosphere by Torricelli in 1643 was of course the first step in the development of meteorology to the rank of a science. The discovery of the air-thermometer by Sanctorius of Padua in 1590 laid the base of a helpful revolution in the science. Meteorology refers to the science of atmospheric phenomena and study of physical forces in the atmosphere like heat, wind and movement of air. The degree to which air pollutants discharged from
