occupying the empty spaces. This process can occur in very small spaces‚ such as within the cell wall of a plant cell. Small scale permineralization can produce very detailed fossils. For permineralization to occur‚ the organism must become covered by sediment soon after death or soon after the initial decay process. The degree to which the remains are decayed when covered determines the later details of the fossil. Some fossils consist only of skeletal remains or teeth; other fossils contain traces of

too. Many plants are being decayed and many animals are being died by the flood. These decayed plants and animal corpses are being carried by the flood water to different places‚ after the floods a new layer of sediment gets deposited on the Tonle Sap. After the floods a new layer of sediment gets deposited on the Tonle Sap‚ and with the yearly floods and poor drainage systems the surrounding areas of the lake transformed into marshlands.

The cartridges perform a variety of functions. First‚ they remove any sediment present in your incoming water supply. Also‚ they eliminate bad taste from water‚ through the use of charcoal or granulated carbon filters. Lastly‚ cartridges remove any micro-organisms present in your water.

soils develop in a warm‚ temperate‚ wet climate under deciduous forests and have thin organic and mineral layers overlying a yellowish-brown leached layer resting on red layer made of iron oxide(ferric oxide). Red soils generally form from iron-rich sediments. They are usually poor growing soils‚ low in nutrients and humus and difficult to cultivate. These soils are developed on old crystalline rocks under moderate to heavy rainfall conditions. They are deficient in phosphoric acid‚ organic matter and

The Atacama Desert forms one of the major hyper-arid deserts of the world and it is known to be the driest place on Earth. The extreme aridity of the climate and unusual mineralogy of the regolith in the Atacama region is of considerable interest because of its value as an analogue to the Martian surface. The sedimentary succession in the Atacama Desert records deposition under an arid to semiarid climate from the late Jurassic (150Ma) to the present day (Hartley‚ 2005).

Humans play a major role in water pollution in all types of bodies of water. One of our biggest impacts is the amount of trash/waste we allow to make its way into our water ways. For example‚ in my hometown‚ people are very irresponsible about the way they dispose of bigger waste items like tires‚ sheet metal and various tools and farm equipment. Most residence collect this waste in their yards or surrounding woodland‚ and when flood season comes‚ it makes its way into the creek beds and rivers.

One nurse working for the Red Cross was quoted as saying‚ "We observed in our tour of hard-hit areas that as the floodwater has receded‚ and the toxin-laced sediment and residue has dried‚ dust begins to swirl with wind or disturbance. This fine‚ toxic dust presents a serious risk to citizens if inhaled." This toxic dust which is now covering the city and surrounding areas can potentially pose severe risks

Introduction: Bangladesh is prone to a variety of natural hazards. It has witnessed the havoc of some of the worst natural disasters of the world due to tropical cyclones and storm surges. Floods and local seasonal storms are annual events which cause loss of lives and damage to housing‚ agriculture and economy. The country is also exposed to the risk of earthquakes. There are other natural hazard concerns such as coastal erosion and sea level rise due to global warming‚ which have been in the limelight
