The South West region of Western Australia is located in the southwest corner of the state, with an area of 23,970 square kilometers and a population of around 123,000 people. It has a Mediterranean climate and is a biodiversity hotspot containing forests, woodlands, and shrublands. Native animals include kangaroos, wallabies, possums, and many endangered species, while the region's plants include banksias, dryandras, and waratahs. Major threats include bauxite mining, root disease that kills native vegetation, and introduced predators like foxes and cats.
Endangered species in Canada
According to the Species at Risk Act, there are 516 endangered species in Canada. Several species highlighted in the document are struggling due to habitat loss from activities like logging, urban development, and pollution. The woodland caribou population has declined from over 44,000 to decreasing numbers due to forest destruction. The golden eagle, killer whale, barn owl, and spotted turtle are also endangered or threatened species facing dwindling populations and habitat loss from human activities.
Grassland Region
The ppt is about grassland region . You can say grassland its a part of the nature in this nature cycle and everything is included . Its is not depth but basic is also necessary .
This includes types of grasslands and many more interesting things which can help for information .
Grasslands (teach)
There are two main types of grasslands: temperate grasslands and savannas. Temperate grasslands, also called prairies, are located in parts of North America, South America, Eurasia, South Africa, and have flat land with low rainfall. Savannas are tropical grasslands near the equator with scattered trees and distinct wet and dry seasons. Both grassland types support many herbivores and associated carnivores adapted to the open landscape.
Completed temperate grassland presentation
Temperate grasslands are found on several continents including North America, Eurasia, South America, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. They are characterized by large, flat lands with very rich soil that supports a variety of grasses and shrubs. During winter, the grasses die off leaving hummus. Temperate grasslands receive between 25-75 cm of annual precipitation and temperatures can range from over 100 degrees F in summer to below -40 degrees F in winter. Common animal species include bison, deer, elk, prairie dogs, rabbits, birds, snakes and foxes while common plant species are cottonwoods, oaks, willows, purple needle grass and sunflowers.

1) Grasslands provide important ecosystem functions such as carbon storage, nutrient recycling, and habitat. They also act as a buffer between deserts and forests.
2) Fires play an essential role in grassland ecosystems, occurring naturally every 4-20 years on average depending on climate and vegetation. Fire controls species dominance and facilitates germination.
3) Widespread conversion of grasslands to agriculture and urbanization has dramatically reduced grassland areas worldwide. Remaining grasslands face threats from overgrazing, invasive species, and changes in historic fire regimes.
Grasslands ecosystem
Grasslands are ecosystems dominated by grasses rather than trees. There are two main types: temperate grasslands like the North American prairies, and savannas near the equator. Temperate grasslands have colder winters and get less rain than savannas. Both ecosystems support many large grazing animals and are important for livestock agriculture, but they are threatened by conversion to cropland and urban development. Conservation efforts include protecting wildlife, controlled burning, and preventing overgrazing.

Biome Desert
The document summarizes key aspects of deserts around the world. It describes five major deserts - the Sahara, Atacama, Gobi, Great Basin, and Antarctic deserts. It then discusses common plant and animal species found in deserts, along with their adaptations for survival like storing water, limiting water loss, and nocturnal behavior. The document also includes a basic desert food chain and lists important decomposers in desert ecosystems.
Desert
Deserts are typically defined as dry areas that receive less than 25cm of rainfall per year. They are formed by mountains blocking precipitation. Deserts can be hot or cold, but are always dry. Common desert plants and animals have adapted to survive in the harsh, arid conditions by developing mechanisms for conserving water such as deep roots or remaining inactive during the heat of the day. Some of the largest deserts on Earth include the Sahara, Arabian, Gobi, and Great Victoria deserts.
Grassland ecosystem
Grasslands are areas dominated by grasses and other herbaceous plants located between forests and deserts. They occur on all continents except Antarctica and cover 25% of the Earth's surface. Grasslands experience moderate rainfall between 250-900mm annually and have temperatures ranging from -5 to 30 degrees Celsius. They support diverse flora and fauna and provide important ecosystem services such as livestock grazing. However, grasslands are threatened by urbanization, agriculture, and climate change. Conservation efforts aim to prevent overgrazing and fires while establishing protected areas.

Mojave desert biome
The Mojave Desert biome covers parts of southern California, Nevada, Arizona, and Utah. It has a typical basin and range topography surrounded by mountain ranges, leaving it in a rain shadow dependent on water from the Colorado River and groundwater. The desert has over 2,500 species of wildlife and vegetation, many of which are protected, and experiences hot summers over 110°F and mild winters around 80°F. While national parks and state reserves protect over half the land, growth of cities and renewable energy development are threatening habitats and the water supply. Conservation efforts are important to preserve the fragile desert ecosystem.

desert ecosystem
Deserts and semi arid lands are extremely specialised and sensitive ecosystems that are easily destroyed by human activities. The plants and animals that inhabit these dry areas can live only in this ecosystem.
Desert ecosystem, is usually believed to be barren, but this fragile ecosystem supports numerous amazing living creatures, known for their adaptability.
Deserts alone covers about seventh of the land surface. We normally call deserts as “sand seas or oceans of sands”. Most of the major desert areas like as the Sahara, the Arabian, the Kalahari, and the Deserts of Australia all lie between 10 and 30 degrees north or south of the equator. Deserts are dry ecosystems comprising a substantial part of the globe

Desert Introduction
White Sands National Monument in New Mexico, Wadi Dhar in Yemen, and Dead Vleii in the Namib Desert are provided as examples of desert locations. Deserts are defined as areas receiving less than 250mm of annual precipitation, or less than 100mm for extreme deserts. Deserts experience large daily temperature fluctuations. Common desert landforms include hamadas (rock deserts), ergs (sand deserts), stony deserts, playas (dry lake beds), wadis (dry river beds), and bajadas (alluvial fans). Desert vegetation is xerophytic or drought-resistant, with small, twisted leaves and stomata that only open at night. Perenn
Chaparral Power Point
The document summarizes key details about the Chaparral biome. It is located along the western coast of the US and parts of South America, Africa, and Australia. Temperatures range from 30-100°F with most precipitation occurring in winter, averaging 10-17 inches annually. Common plants include scrub oak, manzanita and cacti which have adapted small, hard leaves to conserve moisture. Typical animals are coyotes, rabbits, deer and ground-nesting birds. Kangaroo rats have large hind legs to escape predators and can convert seeds to water. Frequent brush fires are natural to the region and help clear out plants.
Riya rai v c (my state bird sparrow)
The document provides information about sparrows, the state bird of Delhi. It discusses sparrows' social nature, nesting habits, ability to swim, physical differences between males and females, diet of seeds and insects, preferred habitats including sagebrush and forest edges, breeding season from spring through summer, and steps people can take to help the declining sparrow population such as providing water and food sources.
April Valentina tropical grasslands. EDLC 3rd.year
Tropical grasslands occur between 5-15 degrees north and south of the equator. They have two distinct seasons: a rainy season when warm moist air rises and causes heavy rainfall, and a dry season when rainfall stops. Grasses that can survive the dry season with long roots are the dominant vegetation, though some trees like acacia also grow. Many herbivorous and hunting animals live in large groups in the grasslands, needing speed to survive as hunters and prey. However, the tsetse fly carries a parasite that infects humans and animals, keeping much of the grasslands untouched.
Reptiles
Santa Rosa National Park is home to a diverse array of reptiles and amphibians, ranging from common leopard frogs to massive green sea turtles. These species play important roles as both predators and prey in the ecosystem. However, they are also quite sensitive to environmental changes. Increasing threats like habitat destruction, pollution, and human exploitation are endangering many reptile and amphibian species in the park. Visitors are encouraged to be on the lookout for these animals during their exploration of Santa Rosa National Park.
Desert
Deserts are characterized by little vegetation and rain, consisting of sand or rocks. They cover about one-fifth of the world's landmass and are typically found near the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. Oases form within deserts, providing water and allowing for plants and even settlements due to trapped water beneath the desert floor. Desert climates experience extreme heat during the day and cold at night with infrequent but heavy rainfall. Plants and animals have adapted to the harsh desert conditions, with plants developing long roots or storing water and food underground, and animals only active at dawn and dusk to avoid the heat.

It also reflects on how the project was implemented and challenges that arose.
Geoff garrett
The document discusses woodland creation in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It describes the types of woodlands found in the park, including upland mixed ash woodland, wet woodland, and upland oak woodland. It notes that ancient semi-natural woodland makes up only 0.84% of the park's area. The document then outlines the park's efforts to increase woodland cover through planting initiatives, describing progress so far and considerations for future planting locations and networks to improve habitat connectivity. Funding sources for new woodland creation are also listed.
Hedgerows for Woodfuel: ORC Machinery Trials 2014/2015
This document summarizes the results of machinery trials for coppicing hedgerows conducted on two farms in December 2014 and February 2015. It found that manual felling was the slowest and most expensive method, while assisted felling using excavators was faster and less costly. Tree shears mounted on excavators and circular saws attached to tractors also performed well. Large scale chippers were more efficient than small scale chippers. With grants, savings from reduced flailing, and selling woodchips, certain methods could be profitable. Coppiced hedgerow woodchips were found to be a low-cost fuel source. Further opportunities and next steps are discussed.
West Weald Landscape Project Conference: Hedgerows
This document discusses hedgerows and their importance for ecosystem services and biodiversity. It provides information on:
1) Hedgerows provide numerous ecosystem services including food, fiber, climate regulation, erosion control, and cultural benefits. Over 120 UK BAP species are linked to hedgerows.
2) Hedgerow structure includes trees, shrubs, margins and bases that provide habitat for many species. Good management is important to maintain healthy hedgerows.
3) Hedgerow loss has stabilized in recent decades but many existing hedgerows are in poor condition with gaps, lack of trees, and disturbed ground nearby. Efforts aim to improve 50% of hedger
Future Forests The Decision V1
The document discusses the aims and activities of the UK Forestry Commission and the Woodland Trust in managing forests in the UK. The Forestry Commission aims to balance preservation and profit-making forestry but some aims conflict, like replacing native trees with fast-growing conifers. The Woodland Trust works to conserve woodlands and their biodiversity through land acquisition and lobbying. The document also outlines options for the future development of Wentwood Forest in Wales that involve different balances of conservation and economic use.
ECoW_Leaflet_HighRes
An Ecological Clerk of Works (ECoW) is often required by planning authorities to support compliance with legislation during construction and provide environmental advice. Atmos has extensive experience providing ECoW services across various sectors including renewable energy and infrastructure projects. They recognize effective communication is important for success and work with developers and contractors in an independent capacity for compliance monitoring and best practice guidance.
The National Forest
The National Forest is a large-scale reforestation project linking the ancient forests of Charnwood and Needwood across parts of central England. It aims to transform the formerly industrial and agricultural landscape into a third forested by planting over 6 million trees and restoring former mining sites. The forest supports rural diversification, increases woodland cover from 6% to over 17%, and has generated economic and environmental benefits including new jobs, tourism, and education opportunities for the region.
Environmental Impacts Of Farming
Habitat losses in the UK since 1949 have included 95% of lowland grassland, 40% of lowland heaths on acid soils, and 30-50% of ancient lowland woods. Some 140,000 miles of hedgerow have also been removed by 1974. While artificial fertilizers and pesticides have increased global agricultural yields, problems include them being washed into waterways causing eutrophication, and ending up in water supplies, costing countries millions each year to remove from drinking water. Overuse of chemicals can damage the environment while organic farming provides a cheaper alternative for water companies.
Forest management and below-ground litter: Carbon dynamics of UK forest soils
The UK has committed to a reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 80% by 2050. Attainment of this goal will require that all sectors of British industry search for sensible and meaningful approaches to reducing emissions and improving net carbon (C) sequestration in terrestrial bodies. Forests and woodlands are a key component of the global C cycle, and their effective management at global and regional scales is an important mechanism for reducing atmospheric GHG concentrations.
Hedges for Habitat - Notes
The document discusses hedgerows and how to create them in urban Southern California gardens. It defines hedgerows and describes their benefits, including providing habitat. While traditional hedgerows contain a mix of trees, shrubs and plants, backyard hedgerows in SoCal can utilize appropriate native species in a scaled-down design at least 20 feet long and 8 feet wide. The document provides guidance on choosing backbone and filler shrubs, planting densities, and designing hedgerows suited to different climate zones in Southern California.
Constraints to Continuous Cover Forestry in Ireland
This document discusses the constraints to practicing continuous cover forestry (CCF) in Ireland. CCF aims to maintain a continuous forest canopy. Constraints include the physical environment like exposure to storms, which have greater consequences for plantations than CCF forests. Biotic factors are also a constraint as many useful species for CCF are not native to Ireland. The economic environment has constrained CCF as the initial return on investment is delayed, though CCF is ultimately more economically viable. Social factors like a limited forestry tradition and lack of public understanding have also constrained CCF adoption. A lack of experience with and expertise in CCF management in Ireland is a major constraint.

Session 1.1 agroforestry systems in china
The document proposes a new classification system for agroforestry systems in tropical China. The classification is based on woodland type, distinguishing between natural forests like primary and secondary forests, and artificial plantations. It identifies six main agroforestry system types - three for natural forests with crops integrated among ancient tea gardens, Amomum sp. plantations, and secondary forests. The other three types are for artificial plantations, including timber trees, non-timber trees, and protection forests integrated with various crops. Representative models are described for different system types. The conclusions emphasize the importance of distinguishing forest and plantation management, and note agroforestry can provide advantages over monocultures.

Rabbits Integrated Pest Management
Three species of rabbits cause most problems in California - the black-tailed jackrabbit, desert cottontail, and brush rabbit. Rabbits can be very destructive to gardens and landscaping by eating vegetables, fruits, herbs, flowers and bark. Effective management of rabbit damage includes fencing, trapping, and repellents to exclude or remove rabbits from the area. Physical barriers like fencing and tree guards are the most reliable long-term methods of protection.
Endangered species powerpoint blog
The Puerto Rican parrot population declined dramatically due to deforestation but conservation efforts have helped increase the population, though it remains endangered. The leatherback turtle faces threats from coastal development and disorientation from artificial lighting, while conservation laws protect them. The golden coqui's only habitat has been cleared, likely causing its disappearance.

Eastern Barred Bandicoot - student presentation
The Eastern Barred Bandicoot is a small, threatened marsupial native to southeastern Australia. It has suffered a catastrophic decline due to habitat loss, introduced predators like foxes and cats, and its small population size. Conservation efforts include captive breeding programs, reintroductions to fenced areas, and ongoing fox control. The population at Hamilton Community Parklands is currently stable at 50-80 individuals after upgrades to fox-proof fencing and additional reintroductions.
Benefitsof Birds
This document provides information about migratory birds in Texas, including common winter birds, migration flyways, benefits of birds, tips for helping migratory birds, and good places to view migratory birds along the Texas coast. Some key points include:
- Common winter birds in Houston include golden-crowned kinglets, American goldfinches, yellow-rumped warblers, and eastern phoebes.
- Birds provide benefits such as adding joy, acting as pest control, and being indicators of environmental health.
- Major migration flyways in North America include the Atlantic, Mississippi, Central, and Pacific flyways.
- Good places to view migratory birds along the Texas coast include High Island,
Forestry for Wildlife
Wildlife provides many benefits to forests such as seed dispersal and nutrient recycling. In turn, forests provide wildlife with food, water, cover and habitat. Good forest stewardship incorporates wildlife needs into management plans by considering all components of the forest ecosystem. Plans should provide a diversity of habitat types including forest floor, mid-canopy and tree tops to support different species. Practices like retaining deadwood, cavities, mast-producing plants and protecting wetlands and streams benefit wildlife. Management should account for species' specific needs and how the land can contribute to regional habitat connectivity and diversity.
Tree Squirrels Integrated Pest Management
There are four species of tree squirrels in California, two native and two introduced. Tree squirrels sometimes cause damage around homes and gardens by feeding on crops, nuts, and fruits. They also dig holes and cache food, damaging lawns and gardens. Management of tree squirrels involves habitat modification, exclusion techniques to block entry points, and trapping. The eastern fox squirrel is the most problematic species and can be trapped or shot in some areas.
Cultivation of ferns - the british pteridological society
Ferns generally require shade, humidity, moist soil that is slightly acidic, and protection from strong winds. They grow best with dappled sunlight, moisture-retaining mulch or compost, and a humus-rich soil. Most native British ferns can tolerate frost but delicate species and those from warmer climates require winter protection. Ferns have low nutrient needs and prefer occasional bonemeal fertilizer to richer soils.
Lepidopteran
The order Lepidoptera includes butterflies, moths, and skippers, with about 180,000 species. They are characterized by their scaly wings. The life cycle consists of egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa, and adult stages. Lepidopterans live on every continent except Antarctica and come in a wide range of sizes. Many are important pollinators or pests of agriculture and forestry, with the caterpillar stage causing damage by eating plants. A few species such as silkworms provide economic benefits to humans.
Protected Animals
- The document provides information on several different protected animal species found in Malta and Europe, including the lesser horseshoe bat, grey long-eared bat, pipistrelle bat, Maltese freshwater crab, and painted frog.
- It describes the physical characteristics, habitats, behaviors, diets, and conservation status of these various species.
- Several of the species described such as the lesser horseshoe bat and Maltese freshwater crab are considered threatened or vulnerable due to habitat loss and other human impacts.
Final Edit Hen Harrier
This document discusses the declining population of Hen Harriers in Ireland and the threats faced by the species. Hen Harriers are threatened by habitat loss due to agricultural intensification and afforestation. Over 1,000 hectares of protected Special Protection Areas designated for Hen Harriers have been afforested. Afforestation is considered the primary threat as mature plantations replace suitable habitat. While some nest in second rotation forestry, the habitat is temporary and breeding success is lower than in moorland. The future of Hen Harriers is uncertain unless steps are taken to address threats such as habitat loss from afforestation and agricultural changes.
California Ground Squirrel Integrated Pest Management
This document provides information on managing ground squirrels, a common garden pest in California. It describes the identification, biology, damage caused, and legal status of ground squirrels. Management recommendations include trapping, fumigation, and toxic baits. Trapping is most effective with low squirrel numbers, while fumigation works best in spring when soil is moist. Toxic baits require multiple feedings over 5+ days to be effective. The timing of control methods should consider the squirrels' seasonal activities and food sources.
Slugs Integrated Pest Management
Slugs damage many common garden and ornamental plants, leaving large ragged holes. The most damaging slugs in western Washington are the grayish Deroceras reticulatum and the 3-4 inch long orange to black Arion ater. Slugs lay small clusters of 1/8-1/4 inch eggs that hatch after a few weeks. Cultural controls like removing habitat, trapping, and barriers such as copper fencing around plants are most effective at reducing slug populations. Chemical controls should be a last resort due to risks to pets and wildlife.
Habitats, Ecosystems, and the Natural World
This document summarizes information about the native plant habitats and ecosystems found along Kottinger Creek in Pleasanton, CA. It describes several native plant species that grow along the creek, such as coyote brush, western rosebud, California poppies, arroyo willow, coast redwood, and valley oak. It explains how these plants provide food and shelter for local wildlife. The document also discusses how the creek habitat has been restored after facing damage from human activities like agriculture and development. Now Kottinger Creek provides an example of shared land that supports both human and natural communities.

Site 6 suds
Sustainable urban drainage systems (SUDS) provide a natural approach to managing drainage around developments. SUDS slow and hold back rainwater and runoff from impervious surfaces like roads and buildings. This allows the water to be purified as it is held in wetland environments on site. The purified water is then slowly released into local waterways to prevent contamination. SUDS also increase biodiversity by creating habitats like ponds and wetlands that attract various wildlife.
Site 1 bird box grove
The document discusses National Nest Box Week (NNBW), which aims to encourage people to put up nest boxes in their gardens and local areas. Since NNBW was launched in 1997, over 5-6 million nest boxes have been installed across the UK to compensate for the loss of natural nest sites. NNBW takes place annually from February 14-21 and provides an opportunity for families, teachers, wildlife groups, and bird clubs to contribute to conservation efforts while observing any birds that use nest boxes.
World map
The document outlines the inputs and outputs of business activities related to extracting and processing natural resources. It shows that businesses require a continuous input of resources like fuels, minerals, and raw materials to produce products, which results in a linear output of chemical substances and waste. If natural resources are depleted, businesses will no longer be able to operate normally. Therefore, the document questions whether there is a way for businesses to avoid running out of resources by moving away from such linear production models.
Waste streams
This document outlines the recycling processes for various materials collected at Ricoh including paper/cardboard, food waste, PET bottles, glass, toner, hazardous waste, WEEE, wood, soft plastics, mixed metals, and general waste. The materials are collected, processed, and converted into new raw materials and products or used to generate energy. Key steps involve collection, sorting, baling, transportation to processing facilities, breaking down materials, and producing new items or putting energy back on the grid.
Paper and card waste banner
Cardboard and paper waste from UK Products Ltd is bailed on site and collected by Parry and Evans recycling company, who take it to a paper mill in the UK where the waste is processed into recycled products like toilet paper.
Legislation
As a line manager, you are responsible for declaring any goods that could be considered dual-use to customs officials. Dual-use goods have both civilian and potential military applications. Examples of dual-use goods at Ricoh include pumps, CMM machines, and aluminum tubes. The Pollution Prevention and Control Act requires Ricoh to control and prevent emissions that could cause harm from its toner and OPC production. Employees should report any potential breaches of emissions regulations or visible signs of pollution to the environmental officer.
Know your waste!
This document provides a list of items that can be recycled by UK Products Ltd as part of their zero waste initiative. It includes common paper and cardboard materials like envelopes, newspapers, magazines and copy paper as well as various metal and hard plastic items like empty drink cans, plastic bottles, food cans and wrappers. The list also mentions some packaging materials that can be recycled such as cardboard boxes, plastic bags, bubble wrap and cellophane.
Green procurement handout
Ricoh first published Green Procurement Guidelines in 1998 and updated them in 2002 as the Green Procurement Standard to minimize the environmental impact of raw materials, parts, and products. The standard focused on pollution prevention, resource conservation and recycling, and energy conservation. It required suppliers to establish environmental management systems. Ricoh works with suppliers and customers to produce sustainable, low-impact products throughout the manufacturing process and comply with EU environmental legislation and regulations on banned substances, chemicals, and hazardous materials in electronic products.
Food waste banner
The document describes UK Products Ltd's zero waste process for recycling food waste. Food waste and crops are collected and sent to an anaerobic digester which produces biogas, methane and digestate. The biogas is then used to generate power, heat and transport fuel or injected into the gas grid.
Environmental projects 2013
In 2013, Ricoh employees (Eco-ninjas) participated in several environmental projects on their site including small mammal trapping, moth surveying, and hosting tours about sustainability measures. They received training from local wildlife groups on tracking mammals and identifying moths. Surveys found evidence of rare shrews and other small mammals. Unexpectedly, a rare Death-Head hawk moth was discovered on site, attracting media attention. Camera traps later confirmed a badger population on the property.
Environmental projects 2012
Environmental projects in 2012 included installing nest boxes and bird feeders, surveying small mammals in local forests, and hosting site tours to increase employee awareness of biodiversity conservation efforts. Volunteers helped with projects involving nesting birds, small mammal trapping and monitoring, and three "Springwatch" tours attracted over 35 employees total. Recognition was received for conservation work when the environment officer was invited to celebrate the Wildlife Trust centenary in London.
Environmental projects 2011
Ricoh volunteers were involved in several environmental projects in 2011, with a focus on hedgerow planting and surveying. In June, volunteers underwent hedgerow survey training and then conducted surveys of hedgerows in local areas. They also installed nest boxes for birds. In November, Ricoh members planted 275 bare root plants along identified gaps in hedgerows to provide shelter and food for wildlife. Nest box maintenance was also performed in November across multiple sites. Throughout 2011 Ricoh participated in various forums and presentations to spread knowledge of conservation efforts and promote Ricoh's environmental work.
Environmental projects 2009
The 2009 environmental project focused on increasing the population of the declining Pied Flycatcher bird in the Wrekin and Ercall Woodlands. Volunteers constructed 60 nest boxes from sustainable wood and installed them over three days in March and April. A survey in June found that most boxes were occupied by Pied Flycatchers, Blue Tits, or Great Tits, exceeding expectations. Specifically, 10 pairs of Pied Flycatchers were recorded nesting in the boxes and banded for future monitoring, including 7 pairs with 44 young in the Wrekin woodland and 1 pair with 6 young in the Ercall Woodland.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Site 2 ancient hedgerows
- 1. Installing bird boxes The natural nest sites on which many of our bird species depend, such as holes in trees and buildings, are fast disappearing as gardens and woods are ‘tidied’ and old houses are repaired. A bird box can be a real help to garden birds- an estimated 2 million fledglings are reared in nest boxes each year. Since National Nest Box Week was launched in 1997, thousands of enthusiastic naturalists across the UK have put up boxes to compensate for this loss. It is estimated that there are now 5-6 million boxes in gardens across the UK. It is a wonderful feeling to see a blue tit or robin investigating a nest box you put up yourself. Nesting boxes build & installed by Ricoh Members Part of Hedgerow Habitat Action Plan (HAP) Why are ancient hedgerows so important? Hedgerows are the most widespread semi-natural habitat in the UK. They are particularly important for the survival of widespread yet declining species that are dependant woodland edge, scrub or rough grassland habitats. Hedgerows are vital for food, breeding sites and shelter, especially on busy sites like ours. They also allow the movement and dispersal through a landscape for many insects. They are particularly important for flying insects like butterflies who need warm sheltered conditions to be able to gain, and retain, the heat necessary to fly. Rare or threatened species closely associated with hedgerows include several European Protected Species, notably dormouse, most species of bat including the greater horseshoe bat, and great-crested newt. These species require well connected networks of hedgerows, rather than individual hedgerows, emphasising the importance of hedgerows at a landscape scale for biodiversity. A wide range of other threatened species are dependent on hedgerows, including a few that are very rare and specially-protected such as round-leaved feather- moss, starved wood-sedge, Plymouth pear and barberry carpet moth. Other species of particular conservation concern closely associated with hedgerows include five species of uncommon and rapidly declining bumble bee, two scarce butterflies, the brown and white letter hairstreaks, the rare cirl bunting and the declining turtle dove. Habitats for rare species The Ancient hedgerow on RPL Telford site can be seen in maps as far back as 1889. This map is from 1903 and clearly shows the hedge bordering Ricoh site. r Site 2 Ancient Hedgerow Ashlee Savage R1785
