P. F. Henshaw's work on decoding net-energy system construction processes termed " Natural Systems Theory ", uses various analytical methods to quantify and map them such as System Energy Assessment for taking true quantitative measures of whole complex energy using systems, and for anticipating their successions, such as Models Learning Change to permit adapting models to their emerging inverted designs.

# Biological controls: Natural biological processes and materials can provide control, with minimal environmental impact, and often at low cost.

The Artist Group PXNG. LI is showing evolutionary processes in a Pepper's ghost box at the Natural Science Museum in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Natural processes can have a distinct recurrent behaviour, e. g. periodicities ( as seasonal or Milankovich cycles ), but also irregular cyclicities ( as El Niño Southern Oscillation ).

To the west lies the Interior Natural Area, which is off limits to the public and is being allowed through natural processes to recover from environmental abuse.

Natural processes of DNA repair are likely responsible for weeding out EDNRB proteins made from the mutated instructions.

Chemical processes may be employed to reduce the amount of antigenic protein in Hevea latex, resulting in alternative natural-rubber-based materials such Vytex Natural Rubber Latex.

Natural processes such as lightning strikes may fix atmospheric nitrogen by converting it to ( NO < sub > 2 </ sub >).

Natural market processes had diminished the influence of white farmers to a point where the government was no longer afraid to confront them.

* Natural Baltic amber – gemstone which has undergone mechanical treatment only ( for instance: grinding, cutting, turning or polishing ) without any change to its natural properties

The justification for attributing life to objects was stated by David Hume in his Natural History of Religion ( Section III ): " There is a universal tendency among mankind to conceive all beings like themselves, and to transfer to every object those qualities with which they are familiarly acquainted, and of which they are intimately conscious.

In March, 2012 the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, ruling in an action brought by the Natural Resources Defense Council and others, ordered the FDA to revoke approvals for the use of antibiotics in livestock which violated FDA regulations.

Natural beryllium, save for slight contamination by cosmogenic radioisotopes, is essentially beryllium-9, which has a spin of-3 / 2.

If nature cannot err, then there are no paradoxes in it ; to Hobbes, the paradox is a form of the absurd, which is inconsistency: " Natural sense and imagination, are not subject to absurdity " and " For error is but a deception ...

Natural boron is composed of two stable isotopes, one of which ( boron-10 ) has a number of uses as a neutron-capturing agent.

Because of continued pressure on space the decision was taken to move natural history to a new building in South Kensington, which would later become the British Museum of Natural History.

These arguments, and a discussion of the distinctions between absolute and relative time, space, place and motion, appear in a Scholium at the very beginning of Newton's work, The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy ( 1687 ), which established the foundations of classical mechanics and introduced his law of universal gravitation, which yielded the first quantitatively adequate dynamical explanation of planetary motion.

Natural selection is the evolutionary process by which heritable traits that increase an individual's fitness become more common, and heritable traits that decrease an individual's fitness become less common.

Natural resources include fish and a climate and beaches that foster tourism, which is the islands ' major industry.

Robert Filmer ’ s Patriarcha: or the Natural Power of Kings, which had been written before the English Civil War, became accepted as the statement of their doctrine.

On June 4, 1998, the city officially opened the Museum Campus, a lakefront park, surrounding three of the city's main museums, each of which is of national importance: the Adler Planetarium & Astronomy Museum, the Field Museum of Natural History, and the Shedd Aquarium.

He wrote sentimental plays, Le Fils naturel ( 1757 ) and Le Père de famille ( 1758 ), accompanying them with essays on theatrical theory and practice, including " Les Entretiens sur Le Fils Naturel " ( Conversations on The Natural Son ), in which he announced the principles of a new drama: the ' serious genre ', a realistic midpoint between comedy and tragedy that stood in opposition to the stilted conventions of the classical French stage.

But his famous Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion were not published until 1779, by which time deism had almost vanished in England.

that which upholds, supports or maintains the regulatory order of the universe ) means Law or Natural Law and is a concept of central importance in Indian philosophy and religion.

He returned to Germany in 1930 and in 1931 he accepted a curatorial position at the American Museum of Natural History, where he played the important role of brokering and acquiring the Walter Rothschild collection of bird skins, which was being sold in order to pay off a blackmailer.

In 1990, Steven Pinker and Paul Bloom published their paper " Natural Language & Natural Selection " which strongly argued for an adaptationist approach to language origins.

# Evergreen needleleaf forest – Natural forest with > 30 % canopy cover, in which the canopy is predominantly (> 75 %) needleleaf and evergreen.

# Deciduous needleleaf forests – Natural forests with > 30 % canopy cover, in which the canopy is predominantly (> 75 %) needleleaf and deciduous.
