With the FIFA World Cup taking place in less than a year, host cities Vancouver and Toronto are working hard to accommodate both the incoming national teams and their fans with new infrastructure. But a conservation group hopes to convince the hosts to consider the tournament's enormous waste footprint, too. Oceana Canada, an independent ocean conservation charity, has announced a campaign to mitigate the waste generated by spectators at the games.
With a plan to protect 4,000 square kilometres of old-growth forest, the recovery strategy hopes to reintroduce captive-raised spotted owls - just one of which remains in the wild - and grow the wild population to 250 mature owls within 50 years.
Abstract We reviewed the various theoretical relations that quantify light scattering under the Rayleigh–Debye–Gans (RDG) approximation and applied these relations to calculate scattering within transparent glass ceramics (TGCs) composed of large nanocrystals within a glass matrix. For a more realistic picture of scattering, we included material dispersion of the crystals and glasses across the transparency range of these materials by way of the Sellmeier equation.
