The Kalahari desert is located in southwest Africa and covers 900,000 square kilometers. It receives little rainfall of 0-10 inches per year, making it very dry. Temperatures can reach 136 degrees Fahrenheit and deadly sandstorms are common. Despite the harsh conditions, many tribes such as the Bushmen have successfully lived in the Kalahari for generations by using local plants for water and building shelters from branches and grass. Humans adapting to the Kalahari develop ways to regulate body temperature and build immunity to local diseases.

Woodland caribou
This document summarizes information about woodland caribou, an endangered species in Canada. It provides details on their physical characteristics, population size, habitat, and threats such as habitat loss, climate change, poaching, and increased predator access. Reasons for their importance are discussed, including their spiritual and cultural significance to Indigenous communities. Potential solutions proposed include habitat protection, education efforts, reducing fuel and paper consumption to limit further environmental impacts.
Rainforest comparisons
The Amazon and Daintree rainforests differ in several key ways:
The Amazon rainforest, located in South America, is over 5.5 million square kilometers while the Daintree rainforest in northeastern Australia covers only 1200 square kilometers.
The rainforests face different threats - the Amazon struggles with logging while the protected Daintree rainforest contends with invasive feral pigs.
Both rainforests are home to diverse plant and animal life and are protected, with the Amazon supported by the WWF and the Daintree within the Daintree National Park.
Science - Topic 05: How animals respond to heat and cold
This document discusses how different animals survive in cold and hot climates. It explains that penguins and polar bears have adaptations like thick layers of blubber and fur to keep warm in cold places. Elephants use their large ears to radiate heat and spray water to cool off. Reptiles are cold-blooded and need to bask in the sun to become active. Desert animals like snakes and foxes have adaptations like burying in sand or having large ears to survive high heat with little water. The document compares warm-blooded and cold-blooded animals and how insulation and responding to temperature allows animals to live in various climates.
Seven wonders of the underwater world
This document summarizes several of the most biologically diverse and unique underwater ecosystems in the world, including the Palau Rock Islands, Belize Barrier Reef, Great Barrier Reef, deep-sea hydrothermal vents near volcanically active areas, the Galapagos Islands, Lake Baikal, and the Northern Red Sea. It provides details on the species found in each location and threats facing some of these ecosystems.
Climate adaptation project: Koala
Koalas are marsupials that live in eucalyptus forests in eastern Australia. They have undergone significant declines due to habitat loss and hunting. Koalas have adaptations like thick fur and claws that help them survive in hot forests and climb trees to find food. Rising temperatures due to climate change threaten koalas by reducing food quality and hydration, and increasing risks from vehicles as they search farther afield. Protecting coastal habitats is important for koala conservation as inland areas grow too hot.
Coral Reefs
Coral reefs are ecosystems located in warm, shallow ocean waters that are home to many species. They are made up of coral polyps that secrete calcium carbonate to form hard structures. Coral reefs come in several types - fringing reefs lie adjacent to shores, barrier reefs lie further offshore, and atolls form from sunken barrier reefs, enclosing lagoons. Coral reefs support a diversity of life through symbiotic relationships and provide important benefits to coastlines and economies. However, they are threatened by human activities such as pollution, overfishing, and coastal development.
Spanish Presentation
This document provides information about the flora and fauna of Almería, Spain. It discusses how plants and animals in the region have adapted to the dry, hot climate. Key points include:
- Almería is the 2nd driest city in Europe, requiring plants and animals to evolve ways to optimize water consumption and withstand high temperatures.
- Plants developed smaller leaves, water storage, hibernation, deeper roots, and being active at night.
- Animals store lipids and water, avoid water loss, use adaptive heterothermy, efficient digestion, and have stronger tissues.
- Many endemic species are endangered due to overexploitation, desertification, climate change, pollution,
Sahara Desert
The Sahara Desert has very harsh environmental conditions for life. Temperatures range from 20 to 45 degrees Celsius, and the ground can become blazing hot from the sun's direct rays. Most animal life is small, nocturnal carnivores or insects. Humans have adapted to the desert by developing dark skin to shield from the sun and tall bodies to minimize water needs. They maintain stable temperatures through sweating but must replace lost fluids to avoid dehydration, which can impact bodily systems. Loose, light clothing and head coverings help humans cope with the desert heat.

Marine mammals include whales, dolphins, seals, sea lions, walruses and otters. They belong to three orders - Cetacea, Sirenia, and Carnivora. Species diversity is highest around 40 degrees latitude in both hemispheres. Marine mammals have adaptations for aquatic living like streamlined bodies, insulation from blubber, hearing adapted for underwater sound localization. Threats include hunting, pollution, vessel strikes, noise, and effects of climate change like warming oceans. Laws like the Marine Mammal Protection Act and Endangered Species Act aim to protect these species.
Learn Australia through multimedia
Australia is located between 10-44 degrees south latitude and 112-154 degrees east longitude. It was first landed on by British navigator James Cook in 1770 and later used to exile prisoners from Britain. Australia's physical divisions include the Western Plateau, Central Lowlands, and Eastern Highlands. The Central Lowlands contain the Great Artesian Basin, which provides a large source of underground water and supports agriculture. Major rivers include the Murray River and the Great Barrier Reef extends over 2000 km along the northeast coast. Australia has a variety of climatic regions and the majority of its population are descendants of European immigrants who engage in agriculture, sheep/cattle farming, fishing, and mining.
350 Reasons We Need to Get to 350 ppm: 350 Species Threatened by Global Warming
The Center for Biological Diversity's web project, 350 Reasons We Need to Get to 350ppm, presents 350 animals and plants from across the globe that could vanish due to global warming.
If we can sufficiently curb greenhouse gas pollution, many of them will still have a chance to survive and recover — but we have to act now. And we have to act decisively, with a firm goal of cutting the carbon dioxide in our atmosphere to 350 parts per million.
Here are just some of those species…

Major types of ecosystems
MAJOR TYPES OF ECOSYSTEMS
1. TERRESTRIAL ECOSYSTEMS
2. AQUATIC ECOSYSTEMS
Terrestrial ecosystems
A terrestrial ecosystem is an ecosystem found only on landforms.
Six primary terrestrial ecosystems exist:
tundra,
taiga,
temperate deciduous forest,
tropical rain forest,
grassland; and
desert.
Ocean habita powerpoint
The document summarizes key information about Earth's oceans. It describes that oceans cover most of the planet and are home to an estimated 230,000 known marine species. The deepest point is in the Mariana Trench at over 35,000 feet deep. Life in the oceans evolved billions of years before life on land. The document also outlines the major ocean zones from the surface euphotic zone down to the abyssal zone at the lowest depths.
Habitats | Science presentation for Grade 7th by M.Hassaan Anjum
This document defines what a habitat is and describes different types of habitats including grasslands, polar, desert, mountain, temperate forest, freshwater, ocean, and rainforest habitats. It provides details about the characteristics of each habitat type and examples of animals that live in each one. The document also discusses habitat destruction as a threat and the importance of habitat conservation.

This document describes the major terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. There are six primary terrestrial ecosystems: tundra, taiga, temperate deciduous forest, tropical rainforest, grassland, and desert. Aquatic ecosystems include marine ecosystems, which cover most of the Earth's surface, and freshwater ecosystems, which include lakes, rivers, and streams. Each ecosystem has distinctive characteristics and adaptations that allow organisms to thrive in their particular environment.
Reptiles
Reptiles were the first terrestrial vertebrates and dominated during the Mesozoic era. There are around 7,000 reptile species worldwide today, with the most successful group being squamates (snakes and lizards). Reptiles are characterized by scaly skin, laying amniotic eggs, and various anatomical adaptations for living on land such as efficient lungs and kidneys. The four surviving orders are squamates, crocodilians, turtles, and the tuatara; turtles are notable for their protective shells.
So You Think You Are Alone Corals
This document provides information about microbes and their role in coral reef ecosystems. It begins by discussing the size of microbes and introduces zooxanthellae, a type of symbiotic dinoflagellate microbe that lives inside coral polyps. Zooxanthellae perform photosynthesis, providing energy to the coral and allowing coral reefs to flourish in nutrient-poor tropical waters. However, environmental stress like rising water temperatures can cause coral bleaching where the zooxanthellae are expelled, leaving the coral vulnerable. The document then discusses several diseases affecting corals like black-band disease and white-band disease caused by microorganisms.
Savanna Biome
The document provides information about the savanna biome, including the types of plants and animals that live there. It describes the seasons, with a long dry season in the winter and a wet season in the summer. It notes that the savanna has grasslands, mountains, streams, and a variety of predators and prey species such as zebras, lions, and cheetahs. Life for animals is described as difficult due to predators hunting for food and the threat of families being killed.
Rainforest And Global Warming
1) The document discusses a presentation by four students on the rainforest and the effects of global warming.
2) It describes what global warming is, the location and key facts about rainforests, common rainforest plants and animals, and how global warming can negatively impact rainforests and their native species.
3) The loss of trees from increased carbon dioxide and tree death would reduce oxygen for other species and habitats in the rainforest ecosystem.
Coral reefs
Coral reefs are underwater structures made of calcium carbonate secreted by coral polyps, which are tiny colonial animals found in nutrient-poor marine waters. Coral reefs provide a diverse ecosystem and home to 25% of marine species despite occupying less than 0.1% of the ocean. Coral reefs are fragile due to their sensitivity to water temperature and are threatened by climate change, ocean acidification, overfishing, pollution, and algal growth caused by runoff.
Beauties of cyprus
Cyprus has many beautiful beaches along its coastline that are popular tourist destinations, such as Ayia Napa and Protaras. The island receives over 2 million tourists annually, ranking 6th globally in tourist arrivals relative to its local population. Some areas of natural beauty in Cyprus include the Akamas Peninsula, known for its biodiversity, and Cape Greco, which has a scenic rocky coastline and caves. Cyprus is also home to rare plants and animals, and is an important stopover for migratory birds like flamingos.
Coral Reefs
Coral bleaching is caused by stressors that cause corals to expel algae living in their tissues, called zooxanthellae. This document discusses coral bleaching in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. It describes how corals get their color from zooxanthellae and the structure of coral polyps. Mass coral bleaching has occurred in the Andaman Sea in 1998, 2002, 2005, and 2010 due to increased sea surface temperatures, with some islands seeing over 50% of corals bleached. Consequences of bleaching include coral death if the stressors are prolonged. The government of India has created policies and laws to help protect and conserve coral reefs.

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.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
