Polders are lands separated from the sea by dams in order to control water levels artificially. In the Netherlands, the Dutch built dams starting in the Middle Ages to protect agricultural lands from floods and create more arable land. Initially, dams were used for protection, then windmills with pumps were used to drain water. Some famous Dutch windmills include Kinderdijk, which explains how the Dutch avoided floods, and Schiedam windmills, some of the largest in the world formerly used for grain grinding and gin production. The Beemster Polder is a UNESCO World Heritage Site where 42 windmills were built between 1607-1612 to drain the land, and some original aristocratic

The document discusses plans to develop a new neighborhood in Madrid with 26,046 housing units and amenities for 90,000 citizens. It then describes proposals for three "air trees" - self-sufficient structures that would provide environmental, social, and economic benefits to the area. The air trees are designed to promote activity, generate energy through solar panels, and create naturally ventilated outdoor spaces through passive cooling systems.
Costumes
The document describes traditional clothing, footwear, and architecture from Holland. It notes that traditional clothes and clogs made of wood were commonly worn in rural areas for their durability and protection. Windmills, which have been used in Holland for hundreds of years to harness wind power, were prominently featured in the landscape, with over 10,000 at one time.
Industrial Revolution 2
The Industrial Revolution began in Britain in the late 18th century and spread around the world, driven by new steam engine technology. The steam engine was invented to pump water out of coal mines, allowing mines to go deeper. It was later applied to factories and manufacturing. Along with the growth of the cotton industry, the steel industry also grew rapidly due to Britain's large coal reserves, which fueled industry more efficiently than wood. The effects of the Industrial Revolution transformed Western Europe and North America's economy from one based on manual labor to one dominated by machinery and industry.
Eolic energy
Wind energy has a long history of use for grinding grains and pumping water. Early Egyptian drawings from 5000 years ago depict ships using sails to move along the Nile River. In the 20th century, the invention of the internal combustion engine led sailing to be used mostly for recreation and in some coastal villages. Modern wind turbines, used in wind farms, harness wind energy to generate electricity commercially. Wind energy is a renewable resource that does not produce carbon dioxide emissions or limit other land uses but has drawbacks including an unappealing visual impact and the inability to store energy for later use.
Industrial revolution causes (empty presentation)
The document discusses factors that contributed to the Industrial Revolution happening in Britain in the 18th century. Some key factors mentioned include abundant coal deposits that could be easily mined and transported, providing a crucial energy source; navigable rivers and natural harbors that facilitated trade; colonies that supplied raw materials and demanded finished goods; and technological innovations like Thomas Newcomen's steam engine in 1712 and James Watt's improved version in the 1760s-1770s that helped pump water out of deep coal mines more efficiently and powered other new machines.
Windmills
This document discusses windmills in the Netherlands. It explains that windmills harness wind energy through rotating blades or sails to power machines. Around 1850, the Netherlands had around 10,000 windmills, of which about 1,000 still stand today, some operated commercially and some by volunteers. The Dutch developed innovative techniques using windmills and watermills to drain lakes and swamps and prevent flooding, creating new land. Famous Dutch windmill sites include Kinderdijk, with 19 mills that prevented floods, and the five largest windmills in the world at Schiedam, important for industrial uses. Zaanse Schans features over 250 years of windmill history for industrial tasks like producing oil
Polder
The document discusses land reclamation through the process of empoldering. Empoldering involves building dikes around areas of low-lying land or shallow sea and draining the water to create usable land called polders. The Netherlands has significantly expanded its land area through large-scale empoldering projects, such as blocking off the Zuider Zee with a dike to form the freshwater Lake IJssel and reclaiming land to create the province of Flevoland. Empoldering involves building dikes, draining water through canals and pumps, and transforming saturated soil into fertile land for agriculture, housing and other purposes.

Het onderzoek spitst zich vervolgens toe om de vraag hoe sociale monumentaliteit van de Julianakerk (door brand verwoest) op een wijze dat Heijplaat daarvan kan profiteren? Was het van belang dat het nog niet als monument was aangemerkt door gemeente of Rijk? Was het niet een sociaal monument, door de gebeurtenissen op die plek? Een plek kan op verschillende manier waarde krijgen voor een groep mensen, een gemeenschap. De waarde kan zijn historisch, wetenschappelijk of cultureel. Hetzelfde gebouw op een andere plek zou geen waarde hoeven hebben omdat de gemeenschap het geen waarde toekent. Onderscheid wordt gemaakt in ruimtelijke en sociale monumentaliteit. Door middel van gesprekken met bewoners en stakeholders (op alle niveaus) is zij zelf ook eigenaar van het monument geworden. Het heeft een besef gegeven over de kansen en beperkingen van het herontwikkelen van leegstaand religieus erfgoed als plekken van sociale en ruimtelijke centraliteit in onze steden en buurten.

Schochland
Schokland was formerly an island in the Netherlands but lost its island status over several stages in the 19th century. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage site located within a reclaimed polder due to its exceptional cultural and natural value representing the struggle against rising sea levels. The last remaining inhabitants were evacuated in 1859 by royal decree after repeated flood disasters made living on the island too dangerous. Schokland provides insight into the history and culture of the Netherlands through its preserved remnants of former villages and landscape within the Noordoostpolder.

Windmills
The document discusses the history of windmills used for pumping water in Mallorca. It describes how different types of windmills were introduced over centuries to drain wetlands for agriculture and combat mosquitoes. By the mid-19th century, water pumping windmills became widespread across the island, enabling rich irrigated agriculture and dairy farming. However, overexploitation of aquifers from replacing mills with engines in the 1960s led to salinization of the water supply and abandonment of the countryside.

Funding for mine land reclamation is difficult to acquire and, while the environmental benefits of reclamation are fully understood, the economic benefits of reclamation are just beginning to be appreciated. Innovations in landscape design and reuse planning can attract partnerships with lenders and investors and spur the economic development associated with reuse of abandoned mine lands. Strategies like energy development, carbon sequestration, and wetland banking can address environmental concerns, but should also preserve historical and cultural legacies in order to maximize economic gain. These environmental strategies are now being encouraged by State and Federal agencies, while the cultural legacies are more universally overlooked. This presentation will discuss the ways in which environmental design of reclamation projects could benefit both economically and environmentally by the inclusion of preservation and consideration of historical and cultural legacies of the sites, while still utilizing core environmental strategies.Ancient and new Energy usage wind solar biomass
Before industrialization, communities relied on renewable energy sources like firewood, hydro, wind, and solar power which were freely available from the environment and caused little pollution. These sources harnessed energy from the sun through burning biomass, waterwheels, windmills, and passive solar techniques. The industrial revolution dramatically changed energy production by introducing widespread coal use which was a denser source of energy than renewables and available in large quantities, fueling the growth of industry in the 18th and 19th centuries and leading to the development of coal power plants in the late 19th century.
wind rurbine history
Wind power has been used for thousands of years, with the earliest recorded use in 500 BC in Persia where windmills were used to grind grain. Its use spread to Europe between 1300-1850 where traditional windmill designs were used to mill grain. In the late 19th century, windmills were used to pump water in dry areas of the United States. In the 1930s, one of the first large experimental wind turbines was built in the US, but it was not very effective due to materials limitations at the time. Wind power development accelerated in the late 20th century, especially in Denmark and other parts of Europe, due to rising oil prices and environmental concerns. Modern wind turbines use advanced technology to efficiently convert wind

The wealthy Dutch banker John Hope commissioned the construction of the first fully Dutch-designed and built steam engine in 1781 to help manage water flow on his country estate, Groenendaal. The steam engine was needed to supplement an existing windmill pump, as maintaining sufficient water for the estate's ponds, streams and fountains presented a challenge due to the low water table. While initially seen as a local tourist attraction, the steam engine was an important early example that linked ongoing interests in using steam to aid drainage projects across the Netherlands and the role of fountains in driving early steam engine development, as fountains had been among the first applications of steam power in the country over half a century prior.
Industrial Revolution Revision Powerpoint
The Industrial Revolution began around 1750 and transformed Britain from an agricultural to an industrial economy. New machines were invented to process cotton and steam engines provided power for the machines. Wealthy landowners consolidated land and applied new farming methods to increase output. Britain had access to coal and the middle class invested in new factories. Transportation improved with rivers, canals, and later steam power. The expanding British Empire provided raw materials and markets for finished goods. Working conditions in factories and mines were often dangerous and unhealthy. New technologies like the spinning jenny increased productivity. Overall, the Industrial Revolution increased standards of living through higher incomes and more access to goods.

Dams & its roles
Dams are solid barriers constructed across rivers and streams to create reservoirs for storing water. They have multiple purposes including irrigation, generating electricity, water supply, navigation, and flood control. Dams have been constructed for over 8,000 years and there are now over 45,000 large dams worldwide. While dams provide benefits, they can also have negative impacts such as displacing people, changing river habitats, and safety concerns if not properly maintained.
steam engine
Thomas Newcomen invented the first practical steam engine in 1712 to pump water out of mines. His steam engine used steam pressure to push a piston inside a cylinder, which was a significant improvement over manual pumping or horse power. Newcomen's steam engine allowed mines to be drained faster and more efficiently. While it initially only directly impacted the coal mining industry, Newcomen's invention indirectly led to wider use of steam power and the industrial revolution, through developments in textile factories, locomotives, steam boats and other applications of the steam engine.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Unlocking the mysteries of reproduction: Exploring fecundity and gonadosomati...
The pygmy halfbeak Dermogenys colletei, is known for its viviparous nature, this presents an intriguing case of relatively low fecundity, raising questions about potential compensatory reproductive strategies employed by this species. Our study delves into the examination of fecundity and the Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) in the Pygmy Halfbeak, D. colletei (Meisner, 2001), an intriguing viviparous fish indigenous to Sarawak, Borneo. We hypothesize that the Pygmy halfbeak, D. colletei, may exhibit unique reproductive adaptations to offset its low fecundity, thus enhancing its survival and fitness. To address this, we conducted a comprehensive study utilizing 28 mature female specimens of D. colletei, carefully measuring fecundity and GSI to shed light on the reproductive adaptations of this species. Our findings reveal that D. colletei indeed exhibits low fecundity, with a mean of 16.76 ± 2.01, and a mean GSI of 12.83 ± 1.27, providing crucial insights into the reproductive mechanisms at play in this species. These results underscore the existence of unique reproductive strategies in D. colletei, enabling its adaptation and persistence in Borneo's diverse aquatic ecosystems, and call for further ecological research to elucidate these mechanisms. This study lends to a better understanding of viviparous fish in Borneo and contributes to the broader field of aquatic ecology, enhancing our knowledge of species adaptations to unique ecological challenges.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptx
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.

- 1. Polders and the transformation of the Netherlands landscape
- 2. POLDER Why Polder Beemster is a World Heritage Site What they are When and Where they were built What you can use them for How they work What are the most famous windmills
- 3. What they are Polders are lands under the sea level separated from the nearest lands to dams, in order to control the water level in an artificial way.
- 4. In HOlland, to increase the lands necessary for the agriculture, the Dutch built some dams. The hydraulics engineering works began in the Middle Age with the construction of the first dams to protect lands from the flloods. They were built in the XII century. When and Where they were built
- 5. What you can use them for POlders are used to protect lands from floods and to create arable lands or lands destined to breeding farm and to the inhabitants.
- 6. How they work At the beginning people built dams to protect lands from floods; later they used some windmills; thanks to the wind, they made pumps work to suck water. These “hydraulic pumps” used by now, are more efficient and stronger because they work using electricity.
- 7. The most famous windmills Kinderdijk is the most beautiful group of windmills and it is a World Heritage Site. This one is made up of 19 windmills and it explains how people could avoid the floods in the past. Schiedam windmills are 5 windmills that are the biggest of the world, they have been an important role in the jenever production (the dutch gin). These tower mills were used to grind cereals.
- 8. Another place to see is Zaanse Schans. 250 years ago, about 600 windmills formed the first industrial site of the world. The Schermerhorn Polder hosts the Schermerhom windmill museum, it has been created inside one of the 11 mills that existed.
- 9. Why Beemster Polder is a World Heritage Site It has been declared a World Heritage Site in 1996. Between 1607 and 1612, 42 windmills were created in an area that was covered by water. It is famous because at that time, rich merchants built their aristocratic abodes and big properties. Some of them are parts of the World Heritage Site.
Editor's Notes
- ciao
- About ⅓ of the Netherlands land is made up of polders.
- In the Netherlands, many lands are under the sea level. In the Middle Age the Dutch built dams and canals to protect houses and fields from the tidals and the floods. They reclaimed the marshy areas of the rivers because they need lands to grow. So the region inhabitants changed the landscape a lot by removing part of the landscapes from the seaside. The Polder construction kept on until our days. Farmers and breeders live on the Polder because the land is destinated to cultivation and pasture.
