Scientists Hunt for Acid Rain and Methane in Wetlands

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

The article discussed about research study sponsored by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration popularly known as the NASA that aims to discover the effects of acid rain with the methane gas that generates from moist lands in the United States, Sweden and England.

The Emergent and Submergent Plants Communities

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

The mangals and salt marshes belong to the marine plant community called emergent plant communities. The growth of these plants under this community takes place above the surface of the sea. They also inhabit muddy area. The mangals usually develop and grow under the warm climate. Furthermore, due to the fact that their leafy portions […]

The Role of light in Marine Primary Production

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

The needs for light enforce a basic limit on the distribution of all marine organisms that undergo photosynthesis. In order for them to go on living, these organisms must stay in the upper region of the ocean where the sun energy is abundant for photosynthesis will reach them. The deepness of the photic zone is […]

Using the Satellite in Examining Marine Production

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

For so many years, the dioxide or radioactive carbon based measurements of primary productivity or of standing crop were taking place from ships at space sampling stations. The changes in the environment as the ship steamed from one station to the next could not be evaluated, nor were the facts between the stations that were […]

The Radioactive Carbon Measurements Method

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

The procedure in radioactive carbon is the same with that in dioxide production technique. However, the radioactive carbon procedure is more sensitive when productivity is very low. In this technique, paired light and dark bottles are also used.

Plants Underwater Communities

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

Benthic marine plants, most of them in larger forms, thrive in such abundance that they rule the basic natural characteristic of their communities. This type of taking over the communities, which is not unusual to plants dwelling in the land, is a quite extraordinary scenario in the sea.
