Timing, exact rates and weather conditions are extremely important. A good option is to hire a professional lawn care specialist to apply chemicals. Spot spraying with a selective broadleaf herbicide (weed killer for lawns) is a good way to kill your weeds without damaging your lawn. I spot spray (as opposed to applying herbicides to the entire lawn) most of the lawns that I manage because it uses less chemicals and is the responsible approach to take.
Transfer of Heat. Magma can also be created when hot, liquid rock intrudes into Earthâs cold crust. As the liquid rock solidifies, it loses its heat to the surrounding crust. Much like hot fudge being poured over cold ice cream, this transfer of heat is able to melt the surrounding rock (the âice creamâ) into magma. Transfer of heat often happens at convergent boundaries, where tectonic plates are crashing together.
Geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings. A geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building. In the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system. In the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger.
