SUMMARY Significant interest in the concept of sustainable development exists amongst scientists, planners, policy makers and public, considerable effort expenditure is made or envisaged at local, national international levels to promote a more society. Until 'green accounting' similar systems are available implemented, sustainability indicator will be most effective tool for monitoring progress towards Sustainability indicators already but characterized by poor absent theoretical...
Abstract The Hagen-Balve Reef is one of the largest Devonian carbonate complexes in Rhenish Massif exposed many former or active, economically significant quarries, especially Hönne Valley region at its eastern end. timing and patterns reef drowning, final extinction, middle Frasnian to Famennian post-reefal facies history, including details global Kellwasser Crisis, were studied based on two boreholes (HON_1101 B102) outcrop Beul near Eisborn. More than 100 conodont samples provided a fine...
Abstract The Hagen-Balve Reef Complex of the northern Rhenish Massif, Germany, is one best examples for globally widespread Givetian to Frasnian reefs. At its eastern end, in Hönne Valley, it reaches up 1000 metres thickness. In general, there limited knowledge concerning faunas and palaeoecology initial reef phases. A unique section at Binolen exposes sharp boundary between underlying, siliciclastic Upper Honsel Formation lower part reefal Formation. ca. 14 m thick succession assigned new...
Reasons are given as to why the narrative of fall man in Genesis 3:1–24 refers a real event. The presumably took place more than 600,000 years ago. describes very vivid way how devil seduces people disobey God. A central point devil's strategy is promise "you will be like God". Wanting God hubris. best medicine against hubris virtue humility. Just 3:1–24, also today wants seduce enslave and destroy them. Time again, manages into evil under guise good with his Concepts behaviours that at...
Abstract The idea of Africa Alive Corridors (AAC) evolved from Gondwana geological mapping to a comprehensive, more inclusive and dynamic approach transdisciplinary research known as Earth Stewardship Science. Twenty designated corridors explore the geo-biological cultural heritage different regions over various periods, deep time Anthropocene. Each corridor reveals specific lens through which investigate some rich scientific narratives embedded within it. concept also facilitates learning...
An attempt is made to determine when humans have had a soul. For this purpose, mind and soul are distinguished from each other. This clarification of terms makes it possible criticise the emergentist view, which assumes that arises naturally biological organism. The existence inferred mental activities humans, directed towards transcendent. Special significance given burials. Burials been practised for at least 448 000 years. Not only Homo sapiens, but also naledi, heidelbergensis...
This paper describes three approaches to cordon location design, a judgemental approach, an optimisation approach based on genetic algorithms and short-cut which lies between the two. The algorithm optimal single generated benefits that were 80% higher than best for simplified network of Edinburgh. was developed from observation charging only few highest marginal cost links could result in high proportion system optimum or first-best benefits. Initial results Edinburgh York have shown can...
The Devonian succession between the Guadiana and Guadalquivir valleys in Obejo- Valsequillo Domain comprises more than 600 m of shale sandstone with some interbedded limestone and marl. most complete reefal sequences region are exposed Guadamez-2 section, which is located on western bank Guadamez River, near Zalamea de la Serena. It consists mainly calcareous its lower part shaly, skeletal limestone in upper part. Conodont brachiopod data indicate that this section spans interval...
This paper presents an overview of the bryozoan fauna from upper Koněprusy Limestone ( kindlei Conodont Zone, middle Pragian, Lower Devonian) exposed in two quarries at Zlatý Kuň near Central Bohemia, and discusses its paleoecology paleobiogeography. The studied is dominated by encrusting fistuliporine trepostome bryozoans (eight species), accompanied mainly reticulate fenestrates (four branching ramose trepostomes cryptostomes (three one massive species. richest association comes reef...
Conclusions about the Creator of universe are drawn from evolution and diversity living beings. Furthermore, four events Earth's history addressed. From them, it can be concluded that actively intervened in Earth to promote development intelligent life. Following characteristics observed: He is patient, creates an exuberant fullness, gives freedom his creation. uses causal links seemingly random steer course The constant dialogue with creation lead into ever greater abundance freedom....
By means of a synthesis Christian faith, theology and natural sciences, the significance freedom in God’s plan creation redemption was contemplated. The triune God is foundation all freedom. his creatures extremely important to God. Despite Angelic Fall, he created our universe, which on path evolution human beings were given choose for or against Possibly, humans who committed Adamic Fall belonged species Homo heidelbergensis . Through perfect obedience Jesus Christ point death cross, power...
A bryozoan fauna containing 11 species is described from the Lower Devonian (middle Lochkovian) of Arroyo del Agua, Sierra de Guadarrama, Guadalajara, Spain. One genus one new: rhabdomesine cryptostome Fehlerpora insolita n. gen. sp. Six additional new are described: three cystoporates: Cystiramus gracilis sp., Fistuliramus guadarramaensis and Fistuliphragma tenuis sp.; trepostomes: Eridotrypella hispanica Boardmanella dubia Leptotrypella inesae Four further trepostome were identified:...
This paper describes a colonial rugose coral from the upper Emsian or lower Eifelian of Aviados (Provincia León, northern Spain).This colony, which has been figured as Phillipsastrea torreana (Milne-Edwards & Haime, 1851) by Almela Revilla (1950), belongs in fact to Radiastraea arachne Stumm, 1937.It is first reported occurrence genus Europe, and an example close palaeobiogeographical relationships between Cantabrian Mountains North America during Emsian.Cantabriastraea Schröder Soto, 2003...
