Answer:
Renewable energy resource as an obstacles for the growth of migratory salmon populations: It is now believed that the reduce access to spawning grounds and nursery areas, leading to a decrease in migratory fish populations is due to the dam structures of large storage-type schemes, which can create great obstacles for the movement of migratory fish species.
Explanation:
- Storage-type schemes ( big dams) can significantly change the downstream flow regime,and may also alter water temperature and quality, and even make it inhabitable for fish to live.
- As the storage of water can be linked with high evaporative losses, which in turn results in high life cycle water footprints compared to other sources of electricity.
<u>Run-of-river (ROR) schemes are HEP schemes: </u>
They operate without water storage, using the flow within a river channel.They are ecologically friendly and do not disturb the natural mechanism for the migrating salmons.
Working Principle:
They are normally used to regulate water levels, which allows a proportion or part of flow to be diverted down a secondary channel to a turbine before it is returned to the main channel further downstream.
There are some modern turbine types used in ROR HEP(hydroelectric power) schemes, which are also designed to allow fish to pass through the system unharmed if the fish do pass through the intake screens.
Arteries like veins, are tube-shaped vessels that carry blood in the body.
But the difference is that the artery carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body. But the veins carry poor-oxygen blood back from the body to the heart!
I hope this helps! :)
Experiments in general are more reliable when a greater sample size is used. When using a small sample size, a mistake or fluke can greatly effect the outcome of the experiment. With a large sample size, there is more data to understand averages and deviations to the average data. The average will likely be more accurate with more data, which would make his sample size more reliable.
As a greenhouse gas that absorbs heat, CO2 raises the temperature of the atmosphere. We refer to this as global warming. The glaciers will melt more quickly as the world's temperature rises, raising sea levels and bringing on disaster. More power is consumed for air conditioning as the temperature rises, which further raises the air's CO2 level.
Since coal is the primary fuel utilized in the creation of power. This creates a vicious cycle.
