After all, we've since gone far beyond any pre-industrial alterations of Earth's climate and driven atmospheric carbon dioxide levels up to 400 parts per million, with peak concentrations still not yet achieved.
The images below, from the chapter "Feeding Frenzy," chronicle the landscape alterations and industrial operations needed to feed billions of people and the animals they consume.
Novel industrial application includes wettability alteration of oil wet carbonate rock for enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
In areas where urbanization is not controlled, the concentration of human presence in residential and industrial settings may lead to an alteration of ecosystems patterns and processes.
Recently, Omics-guided reverse engineering approaches have emerged as an effective tool for investigating gene expression alterations associated with polyketide overproduction in several Streptomyces industrial strains [ 26].
Acne plans only minimum alterations to the former electrical store to keep the raw industrial look.
Alterations in the drainage basin, petroleum and sewage pollution, and increased industrial output have led to severe environmental degradation with a marked decrease in water quality [19].
Recent "-omics" guided reverse engineering approaches, including comparative transcriptomics and proteomics, have been successfully used to identify alterations in gene expression associated with overproduction of secondary metabolites in industrial Streptomyces strains [ 79, 110– 110].
Although a large data is accumulating on making alterations in microbial enzymes, there is a lack of definite information on redesigning industrial enzymes.
The expansion of industrial agriculture (oil palm) has significantly reduced lowland tropical diversity through direct loss or alteration of habitat, leading to habitat fragmentation and edge effects.
Modern complex industrial processes often have multiple operating modes due to various factors, such as different manufacturing strategies, alterations of feedstock and compositions, etc.
