...Measuring depths with echosounders and sonars 1)Leadline 1 - 2,000 soundings per survey 2)Single Beam 500,000 - 750,000 soundings per survey 3)Multi Beam 4,000,000 - 100,000,000 soundings per survey Echosounder An echosounder sends sound pulses through water to measure water depth. The water’s depth is calculated by recording the time between the emission of the sound and the reception of an echo as well as the speed at which the sound travels through water. The echosounder first was developed for military purposes, but by the mid-1930s it was used widely for hydrography in Canada. Early echosounders were quite crude and had low resolution (large sonar footprint). They required constant attention to get moderate performance. Advances in digital circuitry and digital signal processing led to modern survey echosounders with high resolution, high precision and good long-time frequency stability. Improvements in transducer materials and design led to narrow-shaped beams capable of resolving small targets on the seabed. When the echosounders replaced the leadline, there was no longer regular sampling of the seabed type. Instead, CHS hydrographers have developed ways to use acoustic backscatter to determine the type of seabed. Sidescan sonar Because the single-beam echosounder is aimed vertically, it cannot capture information on depth or hazards in the spaces between sounding lines. Sidescan sonar grew out of the idea of tilting a broad-beam echosounder to one side...

...EFFECTIVE STUDY HABITS IN EDUCATIONAL SECTOR: COUNSELLING IMPLICATIONS. OGBODO, Rosemary Ochanya PhD Continuous Education FCT College of Education Zuba. Abuja email: rosemaryochanyaogbodo@yahoo.com Abstract The problem most students have that contributes to their poor performance in tests and examination is lack of proper study habit. For an excellent performance, there is need for the student to form good study habit. A student, who wants to study well, needs to choose a suitable place for his studies. Where to study is as important as what to study and how to go about studying. Productive study habits require learners to prepare personal time-table for themselves allocating a certain length of time for a particular subject, depending on how difficult each subject is. Different methods of studying are well explained here. Key Words: Counselling, Study habits, Reading habits, Education Introduction In School, high academic performance has been attributed to students‟ effective study habits. This is the reason why the teacher tries to adopt many techniques to help the students to learn. There will be a brief explanation of the topic, followed by the need for planning effective study habit programme. A description of the typology of study habits will be supported by recommendation for techniques of effective study habits.

...STUDY HABITS OF 4TH YEAR STUDENTS A research proposal presented To the Department of English and Literature College of Arts and Sciences Lyceum of the Philippines - Manila In partial fulfillment of ENGN 12A July 2012 CHAPTER I Introduction Study habits, in general, can be simply defined as the ability of an individual to comprehend information in order to fully understand and maximize the capacitance of learning in which it became a demand to our society. It does not only limit itself to students often going to school to master and memorize the concepts/lessons he/she has acquired from their teachers, but it does apply on every field of work. However, the problem that several universities have in common with their students is that almost 1/2 of the total population from different departments suffer from failure and repetition of grades indicating lack of proper training and communication. This phenomenon until now continues to be the number one dilemma for students especially when confronting their worse, feared, or even so-called “hated” subjects. Students are also more likely to fear and feel more anxiety when it comes to quizzes and examinations regardless of a subject’s difficulty. Failing grades either indicate the laziness of a student, poor study habit, or the environment that usually affects his/her mental state. Another factor that emphasizes the importance of study habits is the stress levels of the students depending on whether they can handle demanding...

...Peper presented by Bara fenyie CHAPTER ONE BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY INTRODUCTION 1.1 The world is becoming more and more competitive. Quality of students academic performance has become the key factor for personal progress. It is the desire of all Parents that their children climb the ladder of academic performance as high level as possible. This desire for high level of performance among secondary school students puts a lot of pressure on students, teachers, psychologist and in general, the educational system itself. In fact, it appeals as if the whole educational system revolves round the academic performance of students. Thus a lot of time and effort has been made by Educationist and psychologist to find various strategies to unraveling the complex determinant of academic performance, such as intelligence, study habit and other personality variables like self concept, anxiety and motivation. Me Comb etal (1990) suggested that students learning achievement depends on their attitude, motivation performance for success and study habit or skills that people employ to pursue the desire outcome. Bakare (1975) opines that intelligence accounts for little variance in academic performance. Therefore, more emphases had shifted from intellectual factors to non – intellectual factors such as some personality variables like self concept and study habit. Meanwhile, self concept, which mean the way an individual perceives his or herself, has now been recognized to...

...CHAPTER I BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Introduction Alcohol is the drug of choice among youth. Many young people are experiencing the consequences of drinking too much, at too early age as a result, at too early age as a result, underage drinking is a leading public health problem in this country. As children move from adolescent to young adulthood, they lifestyle changes, development transition, such as puberty and increasing independent, have been associated with alcohol use. So in a sense, just being an adolescent maybe a key risk factor not only for starting to drink but for drinking dangerously. Drinking at an early age has been associated with later alcoholism and drinking problems in several countries. This has led some people to believe that delaying the age at which young people first drink alcohol might reduce the later incidence of alcohol abuse and alcoholism. That might work if drinking at age actually causes subsequent alcohol problems. ¹ __________________________ ¹ Wikipedia free encyclopedia, internet ------------------------------------------------- However, there is growing evidence that early ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- drinking, in societies not permitting it, is not the cause, but ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- only a symptom of...

...Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING Introduction This research deals on the common factors that affect the study of BEED-2ND year students and their academic performance. These factors are the problem of the 2nd year BEED students in their studies. It has been an interplay of so many factors on gender, IQ, study habits, age, year level, parents educational attainment, social status, numbers of sibling and etc. This research focuses on the factors that affect the studies of BEED-2nd year students and their academic performance. These factors can help students on how to face these problems in their studies. This study also can help the parents and the teachers understand the problem of their students. Furthermore, this research helps us as a future teacher because if we know the problem of our students we can understand them clearly especially on financial aspect. Theoretical Framework One of the problems that besets our educational system is poor study habits several studies found this problem challenging and therefore, efforts have to be exerted in order to determine the root cause. According to Lass and Wilson(1965), students fails not because they do not have intelligence to understand why they are studying, not because their lesson are too difficult for them but because they do not know how to study or understand what study means. Students failure in his academic subject may not be to lack of intellectual capacity, but perhaps it may be due to negative attitude...
