Earthquakes
Most earthquakes follow plate boundaries and large quakes of magnitude 7 or greater primarily occur along convergent plate boundaries. About 50% of large quakes happen within 100 miles and 70-75% are within 200 miles of these boundaries. Seismologists use new tools like satellites to detect infrared radiation and magnetic signals to better predict earthquake locations, with the area around Crete cited as being overdue for a significant quake.
Earthquake Data Exploration
This document summarizes an exploration of earthquake data. It finds that earthquakes are most common around plate boundaries, with larger quakes occurring where plates converge. Nearly half of large quakes (over magnitude 7) happen within 100 miles of a convergent boundary, and over 70% are within 200 miles. Key factors that influence earthquake prediction are stress levels between plates, the time since the last quake, and whether the boundary is convergent or transform. Most big quakes strike around plate boundaries.
Earthquake Investigation
The document discusses earthquake investigation and prediction. It notes that earthquakes are commonly clustered along plate boundary lines, especially convergent boundaries. Approximately 50% of large earthquakes with magnitudes over 7.0 occur within 100 miles of a convergent plate boundary, and 75% are within 200 miles. The document also lists areas that are considered overdue for earthquakes, and discusses techniques like satellite monitoring that seismologists use to try and better predict quakes.

Photometric Measurement of Ground-Level
For more: http://www.extension.org/67676 Fugitive dust from confined livestock operations is a primary air quality issue associated with impaired visibility, nuisance odor, and other quality-of-life factors. Particulate matter has conventionally been measured using costly scientific instruments such as transmissometers, nephelometers, or tapered-element, oscillating microbalances (TEOMs). The use of digital imaging and automated data-acquisition systems has become a standard practice in some locations to track visibility conditions on roadways; however, the concept of using photometry to measure fugitive dust concentrations near confined livestock operations is relatively new. We have developed a photometric method to estimate path-averaged particulate matter (PM10) concentrations using digital SLR cameras and high-contrast visibility targets. Digital imaging, followed by automated image processing and interpretation, would be a plausible, cost-effective alternative for operators of confined livestock facilities to monitor on-site dust concentrations. We report on the development and ongoing evaluation of such a method for use by cattle feeders and open-lot dairy producers.

MODULE 1.pptx
The document discusses plate tectonics and provides examples of activities to help students understand the theory. It begins by introducing the three main types of plate boundaries: divergent boundaries where plates move apart, convergent boundaries where they move together, and transform boundaries where they slide past each other. Later activities illustrate how convergent boundaries between oceanic and continental plates can result in subduction and volcanic island arcs. They also explain how the Philippines' geology has been shaped by the collision and subduction of tectonic plates over millions of years.
Earthquake exploration[1]
1) Earthquakes occur along fault lines where tectonic plates meet. Scientists can rate earthquake strength on the Richter scale but predicting exact timing remains difficult.
2) Strain builds up over time at plate boundaries until suddenly releasing energy in an earthquake. Factors like past earthquake history, satellite imaging of ground changes, and seismograph readings help scientists predict general locations and timing of future quakes.
3) Major earthquakes tend to strike where tectonic plates meet, such as along western North and South America and islands off East Asia.

Earthquakes around the world
Most earthquakes occur along plate boundaries, especially where tectonic plates converge. Nearly half of major quakes happen within 100 miles of a convergent plate boundary, and over two-thirds occur within 200 miles. Many of the most earthquake-prone areas in the world are located along plate boundaries, such as Japan, California, Chile, Mexico, and Italy.
Earthquake Presentation
Earthquakes are difficult to predict due to movement deep within the Earth's crust. Scientists study past earthquake data and use technologies like satellites and seismographs to monitor ground movement and temperature changes in order to make rough predictions about earthquake risks. The most at-risk areas tend to be near tectonic plate boundaries, especially around the Pacific Ocean where many of the largest earthquakes occur.

Part 1: Magnetic Anomalies The objective of this lab is to introduce the concepts of Plate
Tectonics and how the plates move and interact with one another. One of the main things that will
be explored is the interactions at plate boundaries. Velocity is defined as the ratio of distance over
time. Mathematically: V=td Velocity is a vector, which has both direction and magnitude, meaning
that when we are exploring the velocities of these tectonic plates, we will look at both how fast the
plates are moving as well as which directions the plates move. To determine the velocities of
moving plates, we need two pieces of information: distance and time. Fortunately, volcanic rocks
can give us information about when they were created in the magnetic orientation of magnetite
crystals. These crystals align themselves with Earth's magnetic field, which will periodically switch
its polarity. We can use this information to help determine the time component of the velocity. Use
the map of Geoworld to answer the following questions. Step 1: Locate the mid-ocean ridge. The
magnetic anomalies will form a symmetric pattern moving away from the mid-ocean ridge.
Highlight the length of the ridge and label it "Hobbit Ridge", Step 2: Determine the relative rate of
movement of the spreading of the Elrond Sea. Use the scale on the map for the distance and the
ages of the magnetic reversals for the time. First determine the half spreading rate: the rate that
the continents are moving from the ridge. Then determine the full spreading rate: the rate that the
continents are moving from each other. Give your answer in mm/yr. Half Spreading Rate: Full

Earthquake Presentation
Earthquakes occur along fault lines in the Earth's crust. While they are difficult to predict precisely, scientists can determine areas that are most at risk based on historical earthquake data and monitoring of tectonic plate movements. New technologies like satellites and seismographs are helping scientists better detect subtle crust movements that may precede major quakes and improve prediction over time.
Earthquake data 1
About 47% of big earthquakes occur within 100 miles of a convergent plate boundary, which are more powerful and occur along major fault lines. Earthquakes with a magnitude of 7.0 or greater are associated with transform fault boundaries and run along plate boundaries. 71% of big earthquakes occur within 200 miles of a convergent plate boundary. Seismologists are using satellites to detect small electrical charges from rock strain to better predict earthquakes.

About 47% of big earthquakes occur within 100 miles of a convergent plate boundary, which are more powerful and occur along major fault lines. Transform fault boundaries are associated with earthquakes over 7.0 magnitude, which predominantly occur along plate boundaries. 71% of large earthquakes happen within 200 miles of a convergent plate boundary. Seismologists use satellites to detect small electrical charges from rock strain to better predict earthquakes.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation results
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
