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.
And maybe youâve wondered â how and why are these insects able to light up? The answer is that fireflies contain an organic compound in their abdomens called luciferin. As air rushes into the abdomen, it reacts with the luciferin. A chemical reaction gives off the familiar glow of a firefly. This light is sometimes called âcold lightâ because it generates so little heat.
