Preparation of a Niskin bottle used to sample seawater.
IAEA experts visited Japan from 8 to 14 September 2014 and -- together with staff from NRA and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs -- collected water samples from the sea at five locations near TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station,
The water samples were shared both between the IAEA Environmental Laboratories and the Japanese Laboratories to e=be analyzed independently.

The key to extracting usable energy from deep coal seams and depleted oil reservoirs may lie with their tiniest residents: the microscopic organisms known as methanogenic Archaea. These small cells, measuring only 1/10,000th of an inch long, inhabit the space between mineral grains in these deep underground reservoirs and grow by converting buried organic matter to methane, the principal component of the natural gas we use to heat our homes and generate electricity. The environmental conditions which control the activity of these miniscule gas generators are poorly understood, however, limiting our ability to develop strategies that harness their energies to improve natural gas production.
A recent publication in Frontiers in Microbiology from Matthew Kirk, an assistant professor of geology at Kansas State University, and his colleagues at the University of North Carolina–Charlotte and Argonne National Laboratory, sheds new light on the role salinity plays in controlling the activity of methanogenic Archaea.

What a strange and beautiful flower this is! The canes look like bamboo and the huge pine-cone-shaped red, waxy, large clusters grow a foot or two off the ground. The flowers are small and yellow. The red "petals" are bracts or modified leaves. The black is faded yellow flowers.
Indonesian Wax Ginger is a moisture and shade loving plant, 5-6 feet tall. The basal inflorescence is a gorgeous solid bright red and the bracts are very stiff and waxy. Excellent as a tropical garden plant or as a cut flower. Blooms throughout the year.
The small, tubular, 3-lobed, yellow flowers emerge from between shiny, waxy, red, spirally-arranged, tongue-like, point-tipped floral bracts on 4 to 12 inch (10 to 30 cm) long, cone-shaped inflorescences. The inflorescences arise directly from the underground rhizomes or are borne on the stems. The leaves are green, hairless above, fuzzy or hairless below, narrowly elliptic to oblanceolate in shape, up to 15 inches (38 cm) long, and spirally arranged around the stems. The branched, cane-like stems emerge from underground rhizomes. The main stems are brown, semi-woody, mostly upright, and bamboo-like, while the green, leafy side stems are curved into a graceful spiral arc.
In Hawaii, Indonesian Wax Gingers are grown in moist, humid, shady gardens. The stiff, waxy inflorescences make long lasting cut flowers in tropical flower arrangements.

Xieng Ngeun, LAOS, Development-Laos, Jul 6, 2010. Piped water has made life easier for this boy, who no longer has to help his parents fetch water from afar.
The goal of integration should be to make the environment easy to use by offering the highest possible level of synergy between the elements that constitute the environment.

This photo has been compiled from a batch of partially focussed images (Pictures 106 - Picture 142) using Helicon Focus software.
The images were taken from a microscope with a usb camera.
This was part of Nicole's 'Work Shadow' day at the University of Adelaide. Thanks to Dr Scott from the Environment Institute for setting up the interesting exercise.
My interest here is to document/describe the process by which the single 'sharp' image has been created from a bunch of blurry ones!
I'm hoping other students will narrate stories about the creature, or their fav field of study.

Presentation by environmental activist Ross Mirkarimi hosted by DERES and the U.S. Embassy Montevideo. DERES is a non-profit business organization that promotes corporate social responsibility (CSR) in Uruguay.
San Francisco District 5 Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi introduced legislation in 2007 that prohibits large supermarkets and drugstores from providing customers with non-biodegradable plastic bags, making San Francisco the first city to regulate such bags. Since then other cities around the country and in Europe have take up similar bans.
