To determine:
The way that the Kissimmee River project, a more complete ecological restoration than the Maungatautari project.
Introduction:
Restoration ecology, as the name suggest is a means of restoring the balance of the ecology. It is a step taken in the direction of an attempt to reverse the environmental degradation, that is done till today.

Create a model which accurately, in detail, depicts the potential pathways of carbon (biomass) and energy in an ecosystem with at least five trophic levels (don’t forget your decomposers, they can count as one trophic level). Make sure to incorporate the multiple pathways that biomass and energy could take at each trophic level. Lastly, clearly illustrate how carbon and energy flow in this ecosystem. Be sure to include adequate levels of detail for all pathways and differentiate the flow of carbon and energy in your model.
please draw!
Model/diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in the global ecosystem. You will need to create TWO models/diagrams of the sources and sinks of carbon. In the first model diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a natural, pre-industrial landscape. In the second model, diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a landscape altered by human activity and industry.
Finally, write a few short sentences on what you would expect the atmospheric levels of CO2 to be in each model and why they would or would not be similar.
Is Sustainable Development Goal realistic or idealistic? Why or why not? Give examples that support your point of view.

- Questions about Solar energy websites sources! What are the key points of agreement about Solar energy among the sources? What are the key points of disagreement about Solar energy among the sources? Do any of the sources of Solar energy appear to be outliers? In other words, are there any sources that bring up issues, or make assertions, that the other sources do not discuss? Which sources of Solar energy appear to be the most powerful or influential? Are there sources that all of the other sources deem highly authoritative? Are there any sources about Solar energy whose assertions seem dubious, illogical, or unsupported by the facts? How has thinking changed about Solar energy over time? Are there beliefs that have fallen out of favor? Successful assignments will do the following. Compare at least five sources from reputable publications Demonstrate points of similarities and differences, note patterns, and evaluate source qualityarrow_forwardCreate a model which accurately, in detail, depicts the potential pathways of carbon (biomass) and energy in an ecosystem with at least five trophic levels (don’t forget your decomposers, they can count as one trophic level).
