Eutrophication

...energy supply in the form of sunlight penetrating the water. Following eutrophication, the sunlight is intercepted by the increased biomass of phytoplankton exploiting the high availability of nutrients. In principle, the submerged macrophytes could also benefit from increased nutrient availability, but they have no opportunity to do so because they are shaded by the...

...energy from light at the pump wavelength to the signal wavelength. In this way the (modulated) signal at around 1550 nm emerges from the erbium-doped fibre at a higher power, having taken the power from the pump. The wavelength of the light used for the pump can be either 980 nm or 1480 nm. Sometimes both pump wavelengths are used simultaneously to get maximum gain. While...

...energy transferred to vehicle lightweight: no inner frame needed for the tire/wheel assembly. (NASA, n.d.) NASA’s capacity to be creative in the face of non-negotiable constraints led to the development of a radically different type of tyre. It is not hard to imagine that in the absence of the constraints imposed upon NASA by the rigorous conditions encountered in space...
