Mapping the world's dry forests The extent of forest area in dryland habitats, which occupy more than 40% Earth's land surface, is uncertain compared with that other biomes. Bastin et al. provide a global estimate drylands, calculated from high-resolution satellite images covering 200,000 plots. Forests drylands are much extensive previously reported and cover total similar to tropical rainforests or boreal forests. This increases estimates by at least 9%, finding will be important...

Abstract The production of oil and gas will continue to be the most important components energy industry for next several decades. increasing demand hydrocarbons is moving oil-industry operators explore all possibilities production. This includes exploring unconventional resources investigating well architecture. These approaches include drilling in low-permeability tight-gas formations. use multilateral horizontal wells has been increasing. Fracturing gained significant acceptance....

Since the Earth Summit gathered in Rio Janeiro 1992, more than 180 countries of world have been negotiating United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change including a strategy to reduce emissions gases that are thought contribute global warming. The Kyoto Protocol (1997) –that was announced recently will be ratified– includes provisions allow where reductions very costly meet their reduction targets by buying credits from cheaper. This is still being debated; moreover, sixth...
