The researchers used results from a six-year experiment in a rainforest at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama, Central America, to study how increases in litterfall—dead plant material such as leaves, bark and twigs which fall to the ground—might affect carbon storage in the soil.

Some key regions include China, Singapore, Panama, Brazil and coastlines of Asia, Africa and South America. Ship air pollution effects are greatest in areas where heavily travelled ship routes exist in, and next to, densely populated communities.

The low-diversion scenario assumes 2% diversion from the Panama and Suez canals between July and November of 2025. The emissions report focuses on the low- and mid-range diversion scenarios—i.e., ships diverting from prior routes to Arctic routes. This equates to approximately 1% of the total annual traffic through those canals.

New Panamax is the term for the size limit of ships that will be capable of traveling through the Panama Canal after its planned expansion is completed in 2014: 366m in LOA, 49m in width and 15.2m The ship is projected to respond to anticipated growth in demand for ships in the New Panamax category. in tropical freshwater (FTW) draft.

This scenario assumes crude oil would be transported by rail from Lloydminster to a western Canada port (assumed to be Prince Rupert, British Columbia), where it would be loaded onto Suezmax tankers (capable of carrying approximately 986,000 barrels of WCSB crude oil) for transport to the US Gulf Coast via the Panama Canal.

We need electric buses to replace the diablos rojos, these are old, old US school buses that are the rusting backbone of public transportation in Panama. Give them the choice, and they’ll shift. — Scott 18.
