bubble = under the bubble concept allowed under the Kyoto protocol the EU's 15 member States redistribute their emissions targets among themselves
budgets = See carbon budgets ...

 


Bubble: A system under which existing emissions sources can propose alternate means to comply with a set of emissions limitations; under the bubble concept, ...

Fine bubble diffuser
an aeration device in which air is blown through a porous ceramic or synthetic membrane to create small bubbles in a liquid effluent ...

Bubble Radius: The maximum radial distance away from a biosparging well where the effects of sparging are observable. Analogous to radius of influence of an air sparging well.

Bubble
Under the bubble concept, sources can control more than required at one emission point where control costs are relatively low in return for a comparable relaxation of controls at a second emission point where costs are higher.
Buffer ...

To trap bubbles in water either mechanically through turbulence or chemically through a reaction.

air are bubbled through the water being treated to remove
(strip out) the dissolved gases and volatile substances. Also
see packed tower aeration.

The "bio-bubble" that contains life on earth, in surface waters, and in the air. See Biosphere.
Ecosystem
The interacting system of a biological community and its non-living environmental surroundings.

The issue first bubbled to the surface when Rick Piltz, who worked for a decade coordinating federal research on global warming as part of the U.S.

Entrain- To trap bubbles in water either mechanically through turbulence or chemically through a reaction.
Environment- The sum of all external conditions affecting the life, development and survival of an organism.

entrain To trap bubbles of air or other gas within a liquid either mechanically through turbulence or chemically through a reaction.
entrained Particulates or vapor transported along with flowing gas or liquid.

Scientists say microscopic oil droplets are forming these deep water oil bubbles.

Typical harborage areas include undercut banks, submerged root wads, bottoms of pools, or waterfall bubble curtains.
hardness the quality of water that prevents soap from dissolving; mostly caused by Ca++ and Mg++ ...

The formation and collapse of a gas pocket or bubble on the blade of an impeller or the gate of a valve.

Ice Core - Often used by humans to determine the historic chemical composition of the atmosphere; the source of the ice core is the snow which falls on the glacier which consolidates upon freezing and in which gas bubbles are trapped upon ...

As the air bubbles form and rise through the water, the oxygen dissolves into the water and replenishes the dissolved oxygen. The rising bubbles also cause the lower waters to rise to the surface where they take on oxygen from the atmosphere.

The formation and collapse of gas pockets or bubbles on the blade of an impeller or the gate of a valve; collapse of these pockets or bubbles drives water with such force that it can cause pitting of the gate or valve surface.
Cells ...

As the air bubbles form and rise through the water, the oxygen from the air dissolves into the water and replenishes the dissolved oxygen.

Recarbonization: Process in which carbon dioxide is bubbled into treatment water in order to lower the pH.
Receiving waters: A river, ocean, stream, or other watercourse into which wastewater or treated effluent is discharged.

The sharing out of emissions allowances among the 15 Member States under the EU 'bubble.' An agreement on burden sharing was reached in June 1998 and will be made legally binding as part of the EU's instrument of ratification of the Kyoto Protocol.

Scientists use trapped air bubbles to determine the levels of gases that were present in the atmosphere in the past, and they can examine the water molecules in the ice itself to get information about historical temperatures.

Process in which carbon dioxide is bubbled into water being treated to lower the pH.
Recharge Area ...

To use ozone as a disinfectant, it must be created on site and added to the water by bubble contact. Other benefits of ozone are that it does not form any dangerous by-products and does not add any taste or odor to the water.

The same thing happens to CO₂ dissolved in the ocean as global warming heats the water. This creates a vicious circle where the CO₂ released warms the water causing still more CO₂ to bubble out. You have a run-away effect.

This information can be used to determine the likely Inhalation risk and associated Internal Radiation hazard. Normally the radioactive material will either be trapped on a filter paper or in a liquid bubbler.

Pumice:volcanic rock formed during the explosive eruption of magma; it has numerous gas bubbles and floats on water.
