Technology Overview. Rammed Aggregate Piers are a patented/proprietary ground improvement system that uses compacted aggregate to create stiff pier elements. The installation process modifies the soil surrounding the piers.
Foxfire, also sometimes called fairy fire, is the bioluminescence created by some species of fungi present in decaying wood. The bluish-green glow is attributed to luciferase, an oxidative enzyme, which emits light as it reacts with luciferin.
They eat so many fireflies that they themselves begin to glow. Male fireflies also light up to signal their desire for mates â and willing females attract the males with flashes of their own. But not all the flashing of fireflies is motivated by romance. While each firefly species has its own pattern of flashing, some females imitate the patterns of other species.
