Politically centralized civilizations, more than 5000 years ago, began crystallizing along various river valleys throughout northern Africa and the southern half of Asia.

In America’s west, water – or the scarcity of it – has for many years been an issue. For almost a century, seven south-western states have enjoyed and extracted agreed shares of water extracted from the Colorado River. However, the water available from the river is no longer keeping pace with the demands of increasing populations, and the shortfall is exacerbated by the effects of climate change, which according to some predictions will mean that by 2050 there could be a further 20 percent reduction in the river flow. In Nevada in particular, that excess of demand over supply has Continue reading...

Is intra-plate volcanism dominated by deep or shallow processes?

Abstract
Intra-plate ‘hotspots’ have for a long time been attributed to cylindrical plumes made of hot, buoyant mantle that rises from great depths as deep as the core-mantle boundary. However, there have been a lot of speculations and controversies surrounding the arguments on the true source of these volcanic ‘hot spots’ with numerous scientists siding to defend the shallow volcanicity process as a more tangible explanation. Theories and models of deep volcanicity processes nevertheless dominate the scientific field as the mantle plume-derived sources for hotspot tracks that occur along the oceanic lithosphere are a more straightforward standpoint of mantle Continue reading...

Is intra-plate volcanism dominated by deep or shallow processes?

IS INTRA-PLATE VOLCANISM DOMINATED BY DEEP OR SHALLOW PROCESSES?
Introduction
Controversial Topic
There have been a lot of controversies surrounding the question on the true source of volcanicity activities. Numerous scientists have sided to defend the shallow volcanicity process arguing that anomalous magmatism processes are the resultant effects of the melting of fertile bodies due to temperature variations in the shallow mantle rather than the deep mantle thermal plumes. These scientists have attributed volcanism to result from shallow upper mantle processes like edge-driven convection between the thick and thin lithosphere at the boundaries, lithospheric thinning, lithospheric extension and small-scale Continue reading...

One significant factor that contributed to the development of civilization from the primitive hunter-gatherer societies was the development of agriculture. After the last ice age (around 10,000 B.C.E.), humans learned to produce food on their own rather than simply rely on hunting animals and gathering plants for sustenance. Along with the planting of grains and other edible plants, people learned to domesticate animals and take care of them until such time that they could be used or consumed as food. The organized development of agriculture seems to have evolved relatively at the same time in various parts around Continue reading...

What main factors control water circulation and what are the 3 types of circulation in estuaries?

Circulation of water in the ocean depends on the temperature of the water, density, and wind or the current flow. Wind -driven circulation mainly entails the surface circulation of the oceans. The abyssal circulation involves the water circulation below the thermocline. The density and salinity lead to the conveyor belt movement of water between the much colder regions and hotter ones. Estuaries have three major circulations. The tidal circulation when the ebb and flood (river water) average is almost zeros; the surface circulations when the ebb is stronger than that of river (flood), and subsurface that occurs when the Continue reading...

Hello Kristina, it is true that demand management entails planning using forecasts on resource utilization thereby reducing the costs in medical care. I would have contested your statement that demand management might not work for everyone until I read your personal experiences. It is true that demand management can reduce health costs, as shown by the statistics you adduced. However, and in agreement with your observations, many may not be aware of its benefits (Kongstvedt, 2013).
