Introduction:The typical definition of eutrophication is 'decrease in the levels of oxygen in the water bodies due to effects of excessive use of chemical fertilisers.' This statement clearly tells us all about the cause of the problem of eutrophication.
Oak is a common wood, yet many people arenât aware that there are two distinct species â red oak and white oak. Between the two, there are only subtle differences when it comes to durability, hardness, and cost. Color and grain pattern are the distinguishing features that set red oak and white oak apart.
Quercus alba, the white oak, is one of the preeminent hardwoods of eastern and central North America. It is a long-lived oak, native to eastern and central North America and found from Minnesota, Ontario, Quebec, and southern Maine south as far as northern Florida and eastern Texas. Specimens have been documented to be over 450 years old. Although called a white oak, it is very unusual to find an individual specimen with white bark; the usual color is a light gray. The name comes from the color of the finished wood. In the forest it can reach a magnificent height and in the open it develops into a massive broad-topped tree with large branches striking out at wide angles.
