For example, economic activities that are stimulated by tourism, such as shopping, eating in restaurants, and lodging, which generate relatively small environmental loads, tend to stimulate production activities in industries such as agriculture, the food industry, and manufacturing, which have larger environmental loads.
The robustness and effectiveness of the proposed method is tested by the benchmark cases numerical simulation when there had large environmental parameter uncertainties of the acoustic waveguide.
This accompanies with the tremendous amount of CO2 sequestered from the atmosphere and the natural ability of duckweed to thrive on eutrophic wastewater, and recover polluting nutrients [ 14, 16- 23], suggesting that growing duckweed for biomass can have large beneficial environmental impacts.
In terms of theoretical ecological thinking, I think the Chinese are quickly going out ahead of many people – they have large numbers of environmental scholars, they have a number of institutions, and they are working hard to indentify things which are important.
Thus, small increases in the accuracy of predictions, by only a few percent, can already assist in finding optimal feeding strategies that will have large economical and environmental consequences.
Maize grown for biogas on drained peatlands can receive large environmental subsidies, despite having a carbon footprint eight times higher than coal, according to professor Joosten.
It seems highly likely that such rainfall, even though we could not determine the salinity levels by a regular survey, would have had a large environmental impact via a large amount of fresh water flowing into the aquaculture ground from nearby rivers because of its location near an estuary.
For thresholds resulting from non-linearity in developmental responses, small and often random changes in genetic and environmental factors can have large effects on penetrance when individuals or inbred populations are near the threshold, whereas away from trait thresholds even large effects are buffered.
Failure to prevent even low-level environmental exposures can have large society-wide adverse consequences for health if exposures are ubiquitous (Bellinger 2012).
