not sure if this helps but I hope it does

sorry its so long

To date erosion scientists have failed to address — or have addressed inadequately — some of the ‘big questions’ of our discipline. For example, where is erosion occurring? Why is it happening, and who is to blame? How serious is it? Who does it affect? What should be the response? Can we prevent it? What are the costs of erosion? Our inability or reluctance to answer such questions damages our credibility and is based on weaknesses in commonly-used approaches and the spatial and temporal scales at which much research is carried out. We have difficulty in the recognition, description and quantification of erosion, and limited information on the magnitude and frequency of events that cause erosion. In particular there has been a neglect of extreme events which are known to contribute substantially to total erosion. The inadequacy and frequent misuse of existing data leaves us open to the charge of exaggeration of the erosion problem (a la Lomborg).

Models need to be developed for many purposes and at many scales. Existing models have proved to be of limited value, in the real as opposed to the academic world, both because of problems with the reliability of their results, and difficulties (with associated costs) of acquiring suitable data. However, there are some positive signs: models are now being developed for purposes including addressing questions of off-site impacts and land-use policy. Cheap, reliable and technically simple methods of erosion assessment at the field scale are needed. At the global scale, an up-date of GLASOD based on a scientific approach is urgent so that we are at least able to identify erosion ‘hotspots’.

In terms of explanation of erosion, the greatest need is for a full recognition of the importance of socio-economic drivers. The accession of new countries to the EU with different economic and land-use histories emphasises this need. Too often we have left people, especially the farmers, out of the picture. Our approach could be characterised as ‘data-rich and people-poor’.

15. why did the Berbers eventually learn to live peacefully with thier Arab conquerors?
rodikova [14]
That's a hard one to answer but from all my reading it would seem there was one main reason. The Berbers were nomads so they never were able to be collectively together to form an army against invaders. Therefore, the Berbers were constantly being conquered by someone. Each time they had to learn new laws set out by the conquerors. When the Arabs came with their mighty army, they knew they couldn't fight so giving in was in an odd way a protection system of kinds.

GIVING BRAINLEST TO THE PERSON WHO ANSWER CORRECTLY AND FIRST!!
Ronch [10]

Answer:

When Germany signed the armistice ending hostilities in the First World War on November 11, 1918, its leaders believed they were accepting a “peace without victory,” as outlined by U.S. President Woodrow Wilson in his famous Fourteen Points. But from the moment the leaders of the victorious Allied nations arrived in France for the peace conference in early 1919, the post-war reality began to diverge sharply from Wilson’s idealistic vision.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

If the amount of cholesterol is increased in a region of the phospholipid bilayer and then a FRAP (Fluorescent Recovery After Photobleaching) experiment is conducted in the same region of the bilayer, the result of the FRAP experiment (which is a method for analyzing how diffusion occurs through a little portion of photobleached cells or tissues, and observing fluorescence recovery over time) would show that recovery from photobleaching does not occur in the region of the phospholipid bilayer because of the formation of lipid rafts which is caused by the increase in the amount of cholesterol in the region of the bilayer, and prevents diffusion of the lipid rafts to other parts of the bilayer.
