The North West Coast Academic Health Science Network (NWC AHSN) explored the issues that alcohol abuse poses to the healthcare sector at their quarterly ecosystem event held on 14th July at Select Security Stadium in Widnes.
Attended by more than 100 industry and public sector experts, businesses, and academia, the event discussed the current system for alcohol A&E attendances and the challenges faced by services.
Presenters included Professor Sir Ian Gilmore, Chairman, Liverpool Health Partners, Professor Mike Pearson, Professor of Clinical Evaluation, University of Liverpool and Ali Wheeler, Director, Drink Wise.
Dr Liz Mear, chief executive of the NWC AHSN, said: “Alcohol abuse is placing increased pressure on our hospitals and emergency services and it’s critical that we target the root of the problem, rather than attempting to come up with short-term reactive solutions. Unfortunately, it is a growing problem and alcohol-related illness currently makes up ten percent of the UK disease burden as well as being the cause of six percent of road causalities and nearly one in five road deaths.
“This event brought together experts in the field, including public sector workers, industry partners, and academics, to share information and explore new, innovative ways in which to collaboratively tackle this critical issue.”
Currently, it is estimated that alcohol-related harm in England costs the health sector over £20 billion each year. Although it is a national concern, alcohol abuse in North West remains a significant problem with 11 out of the 18 areas in the NWC AHSN region displaying higher morbidity and mortality rates compared with the national average.
The event was held as part of the NWC AHSN’s ecosystem events. Hosted every four months, the ecosystem brings together representatives from the NHS, local councils, academic organisations and industry to work together and tackle health challenges by encouraging the uptake of connected technological healthcare solutions.

Here is another picture I took in Disney World. The grass provides food and the trees provide shelter.
In this picture dead leaves can be seen decomposing and returning some nutrients into the ground. Because this is not an aquatic ecosystem the rocks dont wither away as quickly, so a difference between these two ecosystems is the fact that the soil and terrain tend to last longer in a terrestrial setting.
I know the science that explains this place, but I can't ever comprehend exactly how this perfect place happened.
This is the Carrizo Plain where we saw many raptors, Mountain Plovers, and many more birds that survive in the out of the way world.
This lovely but very invasive wetland plant was blooming everywhere in the Horicon Marsh. Not native to Wisconsin, its rapid spread and growth is endangering the native plant species not only in this marsh, but all across the whole U.S. except for Florida.
In fact, the day I was visiting and photographing, Horicon Marsh Volunteers were hand digging out these plants wherever they saw one that was accessible. While many gardeners would love to have this beautiful plant in their garden and landscape, it is against the law to own and grow it due to its destructive effect on the native vegetation and ecosystem balance.

b) This is a picture of the wooded area in my backyard. An abiotic difference between this terrestrial ecosystem and an aquatic ecosystem would be the weather conditions and soil. This terrestrial ecosystem has a temperate climate, with high levels of humidity, plenty of sun, with rarely any wind to alleviate the heat. The rich in nutrients, Georgia red clay soil in this area also sets this area apart from other areas in the country. In the aquatic ecostystem, the weather conditions are mostly a dry heat, with unpredictable weather, including rainshowers, and windy ocean breezes.

Serengeti, Tanzania. Apr/2015. The Serengeti (/ˌsɛrənˈɡɛti/) ecosystem is a geographical region in Africa. It is located in north Tanzania and extends to south-western Kenya between latitudes 1 and 3 degrees south latitude and 34 and 36 degrees east longitude. It spans approximately 30,000 km2 (12,000 sq mi). The Kenyan part of the Serengeti is known as Maasai Mara. O ecossistema Serengeti (ou Serengueti) é uma região geográfica na África Oriental, no norte da Tanzânia e sudoeste do Quénia, entre as latitudes 1 S e 3 S e longitudes 34 E e 36 E, cobrindo cerca de 30000 km2.
Summer on Canada’s West Coast is elusive and short, but it is magic when it arrives!
We were anchored in Buccaneer Bay, surrounded by North and South Thormandy Islands, about 20 kilometres off the BC mainland. A short dinghy ride took us onto the islands for short walks.

Joshua trees play a vital, even critical, role in their ecosystem. No other tree is found on the level plain of the Mojave Desert, though some occur in washes. A Joshua often provides the only nesting space for birds. In times of drought, Joshuas provide a critical source of water and food for deer and other animals. Despite its importance, little is known about the Joshua. Researchers tend to shy away from a tree that requires 60 years to reach adulthood and may live 800 to 900 years.

Two distinct desert ecosystems, the Mojave and the Colorado, come together in Joshua Tree National Park. A fascinating variety of plants and animals make their homes in a land sculpted by strong winds and occasional torrents of rain. Dark night skies, a rich cultural history, and surreal geologic features add to the wonder of this vast wilderness in southern California.
It began long ago when rain drops accumulated in tiny depressions and started to erode the granite. As more rock eroded, more water accumulated, leading to more erosion until, as time passed, two hollowed-out eye sockets formed and the rock began to resemble a skull.
Located along the main east-west park road, Skull Rock is a favorite stop for park visitors. A parking spot is located just across the road from the rock. (1)
