There are several reasons for increasing demand for land, including population growth, demand for housing and industries, and development of transportation networks. However, the supply of usable land is limited as much of the Earth's surface is not suitable for development. In response, governments can increase land supply through various means such as land clearance, land reclamation, and maximizing use of existing lands. They can also increase land prices and encourage conservation to manage the rising demand for land.
Soil - Types, Profile and Conservation - NCERT Solution Class 7 ScienceTakshila Learning
Soil Types, Profile and Conservation The soil is a mixture of minerals, organic matter, and organisms But broadly speaking, clay can indicate any loose residue In addition, several types of soils are distributed worldwide and are generally classified as follows
Soil is one of the most important water storage in nature.
Water content in the soil is very significant parameter of water regime of the country which significantly depends on soil area and quality of soil. Lower acreage of soil and lower soil quality lead to less water content in the country and vice versa.
Human activities (agriculture, forest management, soil sealing) are still important factors of water regimes of land.
Mainly agriculture drives the soil water regime from positive or negative points of view.
Natural resource management is a discipline in the management of natural resources such as land, water, soil, plants and animals, with a particular focus on how management affects the quality of life for both present and future generations. Soil is defined as the unconsolidated portion of the earth's crust modified through physical, chemical, and biotic processes into a medium capable of supporting plant growth. Soil properties influence the natural and the physical infrastructure of the landscape and ecosystems.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Chapter 7 land supply
1. Chapter 7 Land Supply
Reasons for land constraint
Reasons demand for land
o Population growth
Due to the rapid population growth in the last few years, more land is
needed for human activities.
o Increasing demand for housing
A growing population will lead to an increase in demand for housing.
o Growth of industries
The need to provide jobs for a growing population is an important
concern.
o Development of transport system
As a country develops, more roads and railways have to be built.
A good transport network is important for the movement of goods and
raw materials, as well as to enable workers to travel between their
homes and workplace
E.g. In some cities, over 20% of the total land area is set aside for the
transport facilities such as roads, railways, and car parks
o Increasing demand for arable land
To produce food to feed their increasing populations, countries have to
look for more arable land.
o Increasing demand for recreational spaces
With more people, more recreational spaces will have to be provided.
E.g. swimming pool, public golf courses, theatres, parks and nature
reserves
P-T.H.R.I.F.
Limited supply of land
o Though land makes up 30% of the Earth’s surfaces, not all are usable.
o Swamps, marshes and low-lying coastal areas are not usable.
o Other uses of land are needed
E.g. water catchment areas, military purposes
Responses to rising demand for land
Increasing the price of land
o Due to more users willing to pay a higher price for the available land,
hence pushing up the price of the land.
o Discourages some people from using the land, reducing demand.
2. Increasing the supply of land
o Land Clearance
Increase the amount of land available for development
Demolishing old buildings or through deforestation
May have a negative impact on the environment
o E.g. Deforestation cause many plants and animals to
die or become extinct →affecting food chain
o Land reclamation
Landfill
Creating dry land from swampy areas, marshes and shallow
parts of the sea.
These areas are drained and filled with material like sand to
from dry land.
o E.g. Singapore Boat Quay and Marina Bay Area
Empoldering
A method of reclaiming land from sea
Though Empoldering is usually carried out in low-lying
coastal areas, it can also be applied to areas that are further
inland.
Reclaiming derelict land
Usually caused by natural disasters, forest fires or human
activities
o Improper farming activities
Fertility of arable land may be lost due to
improper farming practice.
o Mining Activities
Mineral ores, vegetation and soil have to be
removed
Heaps of mining wastes are left behind deep
holes cause by mining, causing poisonous
substance to contaminate the soil.
Maximizing use of existing land
o Maximizing urban land use
o Mixed land use
High Density Building
Maximizing Agricultural land use
Terracing
Soil-less farming
Conserving Land
o As a country develops, demand for land increases for industries and housing and other
facilities.
o A country’s forests and other nature features should be protected
