Abstract Human-transformed land through habitat destruction causes negative long term changes to Earth’s biodiversity and ecosystems. Deforestation and forest fragmentation are detrimental to all life, including humans. Forest fragments have been shown to have decreased animal residency and increased isolation. Fragmentation also greatly decreases the richness of plant species and nutrient retention. Deforestation and fragmentation […]
The research question that has been pondering for quite a while is “does deforestation lead to climate change through its mediating attributes of mean ambient temperatures as evidenced by modern geospatial technologies?” This question is vital to all professional environmental sources and their methods as it evaluates the effect of modern techniques at detecting the […]

Lakes of fire and explosive aerial bombs tend to be fascinating. But the thing was, I didn’t really understand how […]
Earth’s climate has continued to change throughout its history. In the beginning, when Earth was first created, volcanic eruptions contributed to the creation of the early atmosphere. Supervolcanoes have had the largest impact on Earth’s past climate, causing global changes that last for several years. Recent volcanic eruptions continue to alter Earth’s climate and atmosphere. […]
A volcano is defined, by NASA, as an opening on the surface of a planet or moon that allows material warmer than its surroundings to escape from its interior. While volcanoes are a generally thought of as a feature of Earth, there are plenty of other planets and even moons with a range of extinct, […]
Submarine volcanoes are ruptures on the earth’s surface that are found underwater from which magma erupts. Volcanic activities on terrestrial land are widespread and accessible for study, and as a result, a lot is known about these activities. However, unlike terrestrial volcanoes, very little is known about submarine volcanic activities (Cashman & Fiske, 1991). It […]
The Dust Bowl, itself left no option but to force thousands of poor families to flee especially the farmers who had farms, land and property, a high rate of crop destruction was made which caused the inability to grow crops such as cotton and wheat.
