Summarization: Black Holes and Cosmology
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Reviews two articles, one on black holes, and one article on cosmology. The review and discussion of each article are included in this paper. In the first article analysts speculate something unusual is happening at the center of the Milky Way, near Sagittarius. The theorists believe there may be one gigantic black hole taking in mass, or a set of smaller black holes. The second article points out that several scientists still firmly believe in the big bang theory despite the arguments concerning the dark-matter problem as well as the causality problem and the age problem.

The 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. It was at
5:04 P.M. on Tuesday, October 17, 1989, and more than sixty-two

commute started into its heaviest flow. It was exactly at this
time that a Richter magnitude 7.1 earthquake struck California.
It was, as some have described it, an emergency planner's
worst-case scenario. This paper considers some of the major
challenges faced during this disaster. Bibliography lists 8

The Atacama Desert
[ send me this paper ]
This 11 page paper provides an overview of the Atacam Desert. The Atacama Desert of Northern Chile is considered by some to be the driest desert in the world. The distinctness of the phy1ical characteristics of this desert come from both location and landforms, and this also determines the nature of the desert as a biome. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The Basic Principles of Physics: An Examination of the Contentions of Nineteenth Century Physicist Albert Michelson
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page examination of Michelson's contention that in regard to physics "most of the grand underlying principles have now been firmly established and that further advances are to be sought chiefly in the rigorous application of these principles to all the phenomena which come under our notice". The author contends that Michelson's contention is still applicable even today. While we continue to make "astonishing" discoveries, we have yet to conclusively demonstrate that the basic physical processes underlying those discoveries significantly deviate from the basic physical principles known by Michelson. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

The Benefits of Integrated Pest Management
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages. The purpose of integrated pest management is to utilize the management of destruction by pests to crops and other agriculture with as little damage to the environment as possible. By using a system of integration we can cut down on the harmful chemicals and poisons that often harm the ecological balance. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

The Bioaccumulation of Toxins in the Canadian Arctic
[ send me this paper ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing the bioaccumulation of toxins in the Canadian Arctic. Presence of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) which include pesticides, industrial compounds, and combustion by-products are one of the major environmental and health concerns within the Canadian Arctic regions today. Measurement of POP bioconcentration or bioaccumulation levels within the Arctic have determined that the toxic contaminants primarily do not originate within the Arctic and therefore are transported there through air or water currents or migratory animals. The contaminants are considered persistent because they are able to exist for a great length of time and can tolerate many conditions. POPs are also lipophilic in which they are concentrated in the fats of animals. Because of this, bioaccumulation levels are higher in those animals which are higher on the food chain such as humans and polar bears as the contaminants get passed on through the digestion of the fat of animals with POPs in their system and makes them an extreme health hazard.
Bibliography lists 9 sources.

The C.R.E.S.T. Warning System
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page paper discusses the C.R.E.S.T. early warning system for tsunamis and earthquakes. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

The Cumberland Gap
[ send me this paper ]
This 4 page report discusses the formation
and discovery of the Cumberland Gap. Near the point where
Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee meet, a natural passage, almost
20 miles long and 1.7 miles wide, was formed through the
Cumberland Mountains, part of the southwestern division of the
Appalachian Mountain system. Once thought to be a wind gap, the
gap was actually formed by the erosive action of a stream that
once flowed southward from present-day Middlesboro to join the
Powell River. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The Detection of Planets Using Microlensing
[ send me this paper ]
Microlensing has been described as the most suitable earthbound tool for detecting planets of low mass in distant galaxies by observing the effect their gravity has on the light of nearby stars. This 5 page paper considers the astronomical tool, how it works, some of the potential problems and the results it has yielded. The bibliography cites 11 sources.

The Ecological Regions of Texas
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages. Texas has eleven distinct ecological regions that are described in this paper. Scientific evidence shows that global warming is indeed occurring because of human activities. This paper shows the relationship between the global warming and Texas' ecological regions, and how they would be affected if a 10-degree increase in global warming were to occur. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
