vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Geography of Somalia - Climate

Climate is the primary factor in much of Somali life. For the large nomadic population, the timing and amount of rainfall are crucial determinants of the adequacy of grazing and the prospects of relative prosperity. There are some indications that the climate has become drier in the last century and that the increase in the number of people and animals has put a growing burden on water and vegetation. Somalis recognize four seasons, two rainy (gu and day) and two dry (jiilaal and hagaa). The gu rains ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Caatinga - Climate

The Caatinga has only two distinguishable seasons. These are the winter, when it is very hot and dry, and the summer when it is hot and rainy. During the dry winter periods there is no foliage or undergrowth. The vegetation is very dry and the roots begin to protrude through the surface of the stony soil. They do this in order to absorb water before it is evaporated. All leaves fall off the trees to reduce transpiration in order to lessen the amount of water that is lost in the dry season. During the peak periods of drought the Caatinga's so ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Caatinga - Agriculture

In some places the Caatinga has very fertile soils. Inhabitants plant fruits in the fertile soil to process and eat, sell and export. Some regions are being irrigated, most notably the São Francisco River. This is very good news for farmers, although salinization of the soil is becoming a threat since the land is irrigated with saline water. If there is a surplus in goods as a result of the new irrigation this area will start exporting a lot more products outside of Brazil. The São Francisco River is currently exporting grapes, papayas and melons and may become a r ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Ecohydrology - Key Concepts

The hydrologic cycle describes the flow and movement of water through the plant-atmosphere-soil continuum. The interactions among vegetation, the land surface, and the vadose zone are the primary subject of ecohydrology. Ecohydrology - Vegetation and Water Stress. A fundamental concept in ecohydrology is that plant physiology is directly linked to water availability. Where there is ample water, as in rainforests, plant growth is more dependent on nutrient availability. However, in semi-arid areas, like Afr ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Aspen parkland - The aspen understory

There are three main factors which influence the understory vegetation in the aspen stands of the mixed wood forest. 1. Good sun exposure encourages a dense vegetation growth below the canopy. This is of particular importance in the early spring before the trees are in leaf. 2. Warm soil and air temperature at the base level result in rapid melting process in spring which favours the growth of shrubs. 3. A large percentage of precipitation passes through the canopy. This provides a protective snow cover in winter and in warm seasons precipitation percolates through the leaf cover ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Dye - Organic dyes

The first man-made organic dye, mauveine, was discovered by William Henry Perkin in 1856. Many thousands of dyes have since been prepared and, because of vastly improved properties imparted upon the dyed materials, quickly replaced the traditional natural dyes. Dyes are now classified according to how they are used in the dyeing process. Acid dyes are water-soluble anionic dyes that are applied to fibers such as silk, wool, nylon and modified acrylic fibers using neutral to acid dyebaths. Attachment to the fiber is attributed, ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Plant - Importance

The photosynthesis and carbon fixation conducted by land plants and algae are the ultimate source of energy and organic material in nearly all habitats. These processes also radically changed the composition of the Earth's atmosphere, which as a result contains a large proportion of oxygen. Animals and most other organisms are aerobic, relying on oxygen; those that do not are confined to relatively few, anaerobic environments. Much of human nutrition depends on cereals. Other plants that are eaten include fruits, vegetables, herbs, an ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Chayote - Culinary and medicinal uses

Although most people are familiar only with the fruit, which in culinary terms is a vegetable, the root, stem, seeds, and leaves are all edible. The fruit, which does not need to be peeled, can be added, raw, to salads, stuffed, mashed, baked, fried, boiled or pickled. Both the fruit and the seed are rich in amino acids and vitamin C. The tuberous part of the root is starchy and is both eaten by humans and used as cattle fodder. The leaves and fruit have diuretic, cardiovascular and anti-inflamatory properties, and a tea made from the leaves has been used in the treatment of arterioscl ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Wild rice - Use as a grain

The seeds of the two annual species are the ones most commonly harvested as grain. Native Americans harvested wild rice by canoeing into a stand of plants, and bending and beating the ripe grain heads with the canoe paddles, so as to thresh the seeds into the canoe. The Ojibwa call this plant "manoomin" or "good berry". Some seeds fell to the muddy bottom to overwinter and germinate in the spring. Wild rice and maize are the only cereal crops native to North America. It is a favourite food o ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Aspen parkland - The spruce forest understory

Factors which influence the understory vegetation of spruce stands in the boreal forest association include: 1. Year round reduced sun exposure below the canopy restricts the forest undergrowth to shade tolerant species. 2. A large percentage of the precipitation is trapped in the upper tree boughs of the spruce forest and is released through evaporation. The ground cover of feather moss quickly absorbs most of the moisture which does penetrate the canopy. These factors com ...

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Food processing - History

Prehistoric food processing incorporated slaughtering, various types of cooking (over fires, smoking, steaming, oven baking), fermenting, and preserving with salt. More recently the field has expanded to include techniques such as canning (invented by Nicolas Appert), pickling, pasteurization, and packaging. ...

The BR hills constitute a live link between the Eastern Ghats and Western Ghats facilitating an active exchange of gene pools between them. Thus this sanctuary serves as an important biological bridge for the biota of the entire Deccan plateau. The BR hills along with the Male-Madeshwara (MM Hills) range forms a distinctly unusual ridge running north-south amidst the plains of Bangalore(~900 m above MSL), Mysore(~600 m above MSL) and Krishnagiri(~450 m above MSL).

vegetable: Encyclopedia II - Fish River Canyon - Geology

Upstream the river runs through horizontal dolomite strata. These strata formed part of the formation of the Canyon about 650 million years ago. At this stage there was major plate movement that created a natural crack in the earth, the first process in the formation of the Fish River Canyon. Lower down, a granite complex system is exposed to form a characteristic river bed and results in forms like Fingerspitze. In this area, a fault runs north-south, which accounts for the gorge-like channe ...
