Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
Artificial Reefs by Kuddle Life Foundation - May 2024punit537210
Situated in Pondicherry, India, Kuddle Life Foundation is a charitable, non-profit and non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to improving the living standards of coastal communities and simultaneously placing a strong emphasis on the protection of marine ecosystems.
One of the key areas we work in is Artificial Reefs. This presentation captures our journey so far and our learnings. We hope you get as excited about marine conservation and artificial reefs as we are.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

This research builds off our first guide for food service, now with industry experience and insights from nearly 350 academic trials.
2. Greetings &
Welcome to Natural Resources!
The existence of natural resources is very integral to all
forms of life on earth and these resources are overused
in residential, commercial, industrial and transportation
sectors.
As environmental scientists, it is our responsibility to
explore the causes of the overconsumption of these
resources and develop sound strategies to overcome
the overconsumption.
Whether you are preparing for an environmental science
related career or just taking this course to satisfy
general education requirements, I hope that this course
will enhance your understanding regarding the impacts
that the limitation of these resources will cause to our
society.
3. Meet Your Instructor
My name is Asma Wasim, you can refer to me as Ms. Wasim
and I am glad to be your instructor for this course.
I am always available in discussion boards, emails and even
by phone.
Please email me if you want to discuss your grades and other
questions of personal nature. General questions can b posted
to the general discussion threads.
You can read more about me at “My Instructor” menu where
you can find information on my academic and professional
achievements.
I look forward to meet with you guys!

Course Description
This class will introduce the concept of natural resources
by studying topics such as land, soil, rangeland, forest,
water, atmosphere, minerals, and energy. The
management, use, and environmental impacts associated
with these resources will also be studied. Emphasis will be
placed on the United States within the context of the
global environment.
5. Your To Do List
Please Review the Following

SNHU Participation Policy
Welcome to your course! As you may have noticed, SNHU gives students access to their course before the start
date of the term. You are able to view the course content and familiarize yourself with the discussion boards,
milestones, projects, and other assignments during this time.
You may view the course, but you cannot participate in the course until the official start of the term. This
means you cannot contribute in the discussion board or submit an assignment before that time. Once the term
starts, you may participate in all of the discussion boards and assignments as required.
Thank you.
Module 1

All items will be provided in the announcements! Directions and Links will be provided for each. Announcements
are the main method of communication with you! Please check for new announcements every day!
6. Rubrics and Guidelines
A rubric is a tool that highlights what is required for the successful completion of an assignment. It is
designed to ensure that you have a clear understanding of what you must do to succeed on an
assignment, and it gives the instructor a concrete way to evaluate your work. Rubrics also ensure that
instructors are looking for the same elements across all the submissions for a particular assignment,
making sure that you and your classmates are being graded according to the same expectations. Nearly
every assignment you have at SNHU will include a rubric to assist in grading. You should review any
supporting rubrics before you begin working on an assignment. Remember: Rubrics exist to help you
succeed!
If you ever have any questions about assignment rubrics and grading, reach out to your instructor.
