Land Subsidence From Ground-Water Pumping
Land subsidence is the lowering of the land-surface elevation from changes that take place underground. Common causes of land subsidence from human activity are pumping water, oil, and gas from underground reservoirs; dissolution of limestone aquifers (sinkholes); collapse of underground mines; drainage of organic soils; and initial wetting of dry soils (hydrocompaction). Land subsidence occurs in nearly every state of the United States
Low magnification SEM image of open cell polyurethane foam
If a gas is injected into a liquid it forms a cellular foam structure. When a thermoset prepolymer of low viscosity is foamed, the polymer can drain from the cell walls (driven by surface tension) before it sets at the cell edges, leaving an open-celled foam. The cell edges have three concave sides, giving rise to the tri-cuspid cross section visible at the bottom of this image. The average co-ordination number for the nodes (where struts meet) is four, giving tetrahedral junctions.

2.4 Summary of Section 2
Water is arguably the most important physical resource as it is the one that is essential to human survival. Understanding the global water cycle and how we use water is essential to planning a sustainable source of water for the future.

3.1 Charles I and the eleven years’ personal rule in England and Wales
Britain was the first country to industrialise, and it acquired the largest empire ever during this same period. But its sphere of economic influence extended far beyond the boundaries of the formal British Empire. This unit focuses on the economics of empire, using a case study of one town, Dundee in eastern Scotland, to explore this huge topic.

Computing in the Cloud - Part 4: "Princeton Research" – January 15, 2008
"Computing in the cloud" is one name for services that run in a Web browser and store information in a provider's data center — ranging from adaptations of familiar tools such as email and personal finance to new offerings such as virtual worlds and social networks. This workshop will bring together experts from computer science, law, politics and industry to explore the social and policy implications of this trend.
Part 4 includes a presentation and discussion of Princeton research.

John Haldon, Princeton University: History, Remote Sensing, and GIS - The Avkat Survey Project
This talk introduces briefly the Avkat Archaeological Survey, a collaborative research project in north-central Anatolia which seeks to integrate a number of different approaches to studying the past, using recent technological advances to integrate disparate datasets into a cohesive framework of analysis. From the 1980s, there has been continued development of methodologies of archaeological field survey, as well as remote sensing techniques ranging from ground-penetrating radar to airborne rad

Steven Adams: Research Hacks - TIps & Tools for the Busy Scholar
for the Busy Scholar
Lunch 'n Learn presentation: The vast print and online resources of the Princeton University Library can be a bit overwhelming to both nascent and seasoned scholars. Most scholars and researchers are so busy with their daily responsibilities that there’s little opportunity for exploration and staying current with new technologies and resources.
In this talk, Steven Adams, the Biological and Life Sciences Librarian and Interim Psychology Librarian, will show you how to establish a system that
Bill Guthe, Ben Johnston: Google Earth and Sky
Lunch 'n Learn presentation: Google Earth and Maps are used extensively for instruction at Princeton. The talk describes some of these applications, the nature of Google Earth, and some features of Google Sky, which is found within the Google Earth application.
