Introduction Wave energy is the transfer of energy by water waves which is then captured to perform useful work such as generation of electricity and water desalination. This energy is produced when electricity generators are kept at the surface of the ocean and then propelled by the ocean waves.The Wave Energy Converter (WEC) machine is used to exploit wave power into useful form of electric energy. The WEC’s are attached to special turbines, buoys and other machineries that capture the power of

seafloor. The main difference between cold seeps and hydrothermal vents is the temperature of the emanating fluid. The seepage emitted from cold seeps is the same temperature as the surrounding seawater, whereas hydrothermal vents radiate much hotter water. The hydrocarbons that emanate from cold seeps are usually methane, but could also be ethane, propane, or oil. Cold seeps and hydrothermal vents have a community of organisms that surround them, which can be restricted to the area. The cold seeps are

Abstract The Central Valley is an area of 18,000 square miles located in central California in the United States. Due to its size, the valley encompasses two different climate types, a hot Mediterranean climate (Csa) in its northern section and a low-latitude desert climate (BWh) in its southern section. These climate types, along with seasonality, latitude, and location affect the energy, moisture, and pressure of the area. Introduction Physiographic Setting of the Region The Central Valley is

During drilling, fissures are created allowing for this toxic mess to seep into drinking water. The danger of this type of pollution resulted in the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) forcing three oil companies to reimburse residents of Poplar, MT for water infrastructure expenditures when such a case occurred. Right above these sites, there has also been an increase in drilling waste as more of these wells start up. In
