is a source of nutrients: 0.5% of composted pulp is nitrogen‚ 0.15% is phosphorus‚ and 0.5% is potassium. Therefore‚ pulp can be treated and used as organic fertiliser. The pulp is left in piles‚ and after 3 to 12 months‚ it turns into rich‚ black humus‚ and can be used for composting. Another way of composting is to mix coffee husk with cattle manure‚ and leave the mixture in pits or heaps. The use of organic fertilizer helps to improve soil properties thus increasing yield as shown through investigations

Acid Rain Acid rain is polluted rain. The pollutants go up to the atmosphere and when it rains it brings the pollution down with it. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide are the gases that form the acid rain. When these gases mix with moisture it can make rain‚ snow‚ hail‚ or even fog. The scientific term for acid rain is acid deposition which means when the acid is taken from the air and is deposited on the earth. Major industries‚ coal burning factories‚ power plants and automoble engines

water after heavy rain and minimizing flooding. Trees take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen into air‚ which is a great benefit to mankind. Forests influence local and global climate. The forest is also vital as a watershed. Because of the thick humus layer‚ loose soil‚ and soil-retaining powers of the trees’ long roots‚ forests are vitally important for preserving adequate water supplies. The wild animals and other beings get enough protection from the solar heat‚ temperature and the leaf cover

boots‚ or your white-collar misunderstandings. Do not assume meanings hidden from you: the best poems mean what they say and say it. To read poetry requires only courage enough to leap from the edge and trust. Treat a poem like dirt‚ humus rich and heavy from the garden. Later it will become the fat tomatoes and golden squash piled high upon your kitchen table. Poetry demands surrender‚ language saying what is true‚ doing holy things to the ordinary.

The American pygmy shrew has a large habitat tolerance and is located in a variety of different areas. These areas range from the Gaspe Peninsula across Canada to Alaska and south to Northeast Washington. The range also extends southward in the Appalachian Mountains toward Northern Georgia. Due to the shrews vast range‚ it can be found in a variety of different habits such as old field‚ hardwood and coniferous forest. The American Pygmy shrew is restricted to primarily mid to upper elevations within

Ecological succession is defined as a series of transitions in species composition over ecological time. The process of succession is termed primary succession when it involves establishment of a community in a newly-formed habitat where even soil does not exist‚ such as on a volcanic island or on the rubble left behind by a retreating glacier - imagine Long Island just after the last glaciers receded - the process of a community of organisms becoming established on the pile of bare rock that formed

Forests influence local and global climate. They conserve soil by preventing rapid runoff of water after heavy rains‚ thereby reducing soil erosion and minimizing floods. Forests are also vital for increasing our ground water. Because of the thick humus layer‚ loose soil‚ and soil-retaining powers of the long roots of trees‚ forests are vitally important for preserving adequate water supplies. Forests contribute substantially to the social and economic development of the country. A regular supply

nitrogen is obtained from dead organic materials such as Amino Acids. The first step in this process is nitrogen being released from the amino acid. This process is known as ammonification. Alanine is used as an organic source because it is found in humus‚ which is dead organic matter. The Alanine is decomposed into simpler compounds by soil-dwelling saprophytic bacteria and different fungi. They incorporate the nitrogen from amino acids and proteins and release the excess nitrogen in the form of
