The Long-Term Effect of Global Warming Will Change the World
This is 5 (five) consequences of global warming in the long-term :
" 1. Great Barrier Reef may be gone in 20 years
The Great Barrier Reef will be so degraded by warming waters that it will be unrecognizable within 20 years. Charlie Veron, former chief scientist of the Australian Institute of Marine Science, told The Times: “There is no way out, no loopholes. The Great Barrier Reef will be over within 20 years or so.” Once carbon dioxide had hit the levels predicted for between 2030 and 2060, all coral reefs were doomed to extinction, he said. “They would be the world's first global ecosystem to collapse. I have the backing of every coral reef scientist, every research organization. I've spoken to them all. This is critical. This is reality.
2. Amazon Rain Forest may turn into a desert
Teeming with millions of species and one-fifth of the world's fresh water, the Amazon is the world's largest tropical rainforest. However, global warming and deforestation are reversing the forest's role as a carbon sink, converting 30-60% of the rainforest into dry savannah. Projections show the forest could disappear completely by 2050.
3. Sahara Desert may become green
cientists are seeing signals that the Sahara desert and surrounding regions are greening due to increasing rainfall. If sustained, these rains could revitalize drought-ravaged regions, reclaiming them for farming communities. This desert-shrinking trend is supported by climate models, which predict a return to conditions that turned the Sahara into a lush savanna some 12,000 years ago.
4. Hurricanes may become more devastating than Katrina
It has not been determined whether Katrina was linked to global warming. But there are indications that global warming will produce more Category 5 hurricanes --and Katrina was only Category 4 when it hit Louisiana. Hurricanes derive their power in part from warm water, and so forecasting models show future hurricanes becoming more severe as sea surface temperatures rise. Global warming also makes hurricanes more destructive by raising the sea level, which leads to more serious coastal flooding. (According to the EPA, a two-foot rise would swallow a chunk of the U.S. bigger than Massachusetts.)
5. London may disappear underwater by 2100
It isn't only reefs and low-lying islands that are under threat from global warming. In fact, a major threat is for those large urban areas which are at risk of eventually being submerged underwater. This is caused by a change in sea levels that occurs when global warming takes place, resulting in coastal cities being destroyed by flooding. Dozens of the world's cities, including London and New York, could be flooded by the end of the century, according to research which suggests that global warming will increase sea levels more rapidly than was previously thought. London is one of the major world capitals at high risk of this type of flooding, as depicted in this shot from the 2007 movie Flood. Scientists say that the city could be under water as early as within the next one hundred years. "

4500Ti Titanium Pressure Transducer
Geokon’s (USA) Model 4500Ti Titanium Pressure Transducer is designed specifically for use in highly corrosive environments such as landfills, leachates and in other critical areas where long-term survivability is essential. All exposed surfaces are made from titanium, and an internal thermistor provides for simultaneous temperature measurements. Available in ranges up to 7.5 MPa with +/- 0.1 % FS accuracy. Combined with Geokon’s wireless dataloggers, these pressure transducers can provide remote data aqcuistion over local area networks and with data made available over the internet in real time.

464 Electronic Pump Control For Groundwater
Solinst (Canada) unveils their newly designed Model 464 Electronic Pump Control Unit. This tool is made to work easily with pneumatic pumps and obtain representative groundwater samples during monitoring programs such as site assessments, contaminant detection, site characterizations, remediation projects, compliance monitoring, etc. The Model 464 is designed to help field technician meet the sampling protocols of regulators worldwide, including the U.S. EPA. The Controller allows faster purge rates, as well as precise low flow control to ensure a representative sample at 100 ml/min or less when sampling for Volatile Organic Compounds ( VOCs ).
The Control Unit outputs 125 psi and runs on 4 AA alkaline batteries that can last up to 100 hours of normal use. The Model 464 also has a manual mode that allows user operate the Control Unit without batteries, using only a compressed air source.
These convenient boxes are rugged, dependable and suitable for all environments. Tubing is supplied and quick-connect fittings allow instant attachment to pumps, dedicated pump well caps, portable pump reel units and to an air compressor or compressed gas source.
The Control Unit is excellent to use with the company’s own model 407 Integra Bladder Pumps and Model 408 Double Valve Pumps. The Model 464 Electronic Pump Control Unit is available for purchase.

High Accuracy HDI Pressure Sensors
Sensortechnics (Germany) HDI sensors measure absolute, differential or gage pressure in various ranges from 10 mbar up to 5 bar. The HDI series features 3 V supply versions which are ideally suitable for battery powered applications, e.g. in portable or handheld devices. HDI pressure sensors perform precision digital signal conditioning and achieve ultra high accuracies with an excellent Total Error Band ( TEB ) better than ±0.5% FSS over a temperature range of 0…+85 C.
The HDI series provides digital interface with I≤C bus protocol and analog 0.5…4.5 V output signals at the same time therefore allowing customers to build up a redundancy functionality for safety critical applications. The sensors are intended to be used with air and non-corosive gases and offer various unidirectional, bidirectional or barometric calibration as well as different accuracy classes. Miniature SMT and DIP housings allow for space-saving PCB-mounting and maximum OEM design flexibility. A wide selection of sensor configurations are available from stock at Sensortechnics. All HDI pressure sensors can be modified according to customer specific requirement, e.g. with respect to pressure range, resolution, accuracy and internal digital settings.
Due to the wide selection of different sensor configurations Sensortechnics is able to offer customers the best suitable sensor with an ideal coast/performance ratio. Typical applications of the HDI pressure sensors include medical devices, instrumentation, environmental controls and HVAC.
