Essay Instructions: Hi,

I would like to use the same writer as my order before A2014786 (Jowriter 63). The literature review must encompass the following objectives:

1. To investigate the effect of slope angle and rainfall intensities on soil erosion under controlled conditions using four (4) distinct soil types.
2. To compare this data with that for a cropped plot.
3. To highlight an approach at estimating erosion risk and nutrient loss

The review must also have the following sections or ideas organised in a precise manner:

What is soil erosion?
The soil erosion process
Factors affecting soil erosion
Soil Erosion Impacts (off site and onsite)
Measurements of Soil Erosion (models and other techniques)
Rainfall simulation (using plots) and soil erosion (since research is primarily using a rainfall simulator review must reflect arguments for and against, mainly for the use of this technique as compared to other techniques

Please include references 1999 to 2010 and older references where required.





There are faxes for this order.

Essay Instructions: State the general problem area clearly and discuss the importance and significance of the problem area.

Research Paper Proposal

In the Late Pre-classic Period, a number of environmental changes took place in the Mayan Lowlands. Prevalent environmental degradation at the time led to a sudden decline of the civilization, which led a number of political and social implications in the region. Both anthropogenic and non-anthropogenic causes fronted this decline leading to a collapse of major urban centers. The climatic variability of the region has held a great significance on further development of the Lowlands, a topic my research paper wishes to explore.

In my research paper, I will aim to study the causes- both natural and man-made factors that led to environmental degradation. It will target scientific, methodological evidence to concur the devastation of the environment and its implications. The paper will aim to seek out reasons that led to the degradation and ultimate collapse of the civilization.

Furthermore, the paper will seek to establish the social and political changes, which were causations of the environmental collapse. An unsustainable region led people to abandon their homes and find new places to live. This led to a shift in settlements and an alteration in urban hierarchy. The paper will map out the changes in urban settlement, and draw out the societal, cultural and political implications that this had on the structure and construction of urban centers in the Mayan Lowlands. The paper will hope to chart out the socio-political complexities that the change in townships led to.

Using the sources stated below, the ultimate aim of the paper is to chart out the ill-effects of anthropogenic and natural causes that led to the major environmental damage in the Mayan Lowlands; forcing people to move in to newer regions, altering an already established socio-political structure to give way to a new one. The paper will chalk out the implications and consequences of the climatic changes on the people of Mayan Lowlands.

details:
1)Chose and collect the material relating to a specific country.
2)Analyze the changes in the chosen countries population structure over time(maybe a 50 year span).Areas that need to be included are birth rates,death rates,patterns of migration,age structure,life expectancy,population density and fertility rates and infant mortality rates.Other areas of demographics can also be included.
3) Use illustrations such as maps,diagrams,population pyramids.(If so,then it have to be 6 pages,but no more)
4) outline the effect such changes in the population structure will have on the environment in chosen country.Areas that could be looked at include air pollution,water pollution,soil erosion,urban problems,destruction of habitat and shortage of food,urban sprawl.
