Climate Research on Pacific Island Territory, Guam
This is a climate research on Pacific Island Territories : Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa. Please perform CLIMATE RESEARCH FOR These 3 Pacific Island Territories DIFFERENT CLIMATE ASSESSMENTS/ CLIMATE IMPACTS FOR Guam.This research is to find out what is going on in these territories and what climate change threats or conditions they are facing. Treat each territory as separate and do not write this paper as combined. It can be one word doc but write the research work separately. 3 separate pages per territory, so 9 in total. 10 resources per territory so 30 resources, unless some resources can be used for multiple territories.
Find RELEVANT STUDIES OR CLIMATE PROJECTIONS IN TERMS OF DROUGHT, FLOODING, WARMING OF WEATHER, ACIDIFICATION, HARM TO CORAL REEFS, STORMS, FRESH WATER AT RISK etc for these territories. YOU HAVE TO PERFORM RESEARCH TO FIND OUT WHAT THE ISSUES ARE FOR EACH TERRITORY. Find what climate conditions affect them. 3 pages per territory. so 9 in total. You will need to find case studies etc. DO NOT USE WEBSITES OR BLOGS OR ARTICLES THAT PROVIDE OPINIONS AS THIS IS UNBIASED RESEARCH. It's more of an informal paper (NOT RESEARCH PAPER FORMAT) listing the key findings. You can list the key findings of your research under suitable headings or under case studies you find. make the headings of resources as links.
USE THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS TO GUIDE THIS RESEARCH:
1. What is the current water infrastructure like on the territories? (focus on drinking water, storm water, and wastewater) What troubles have they had historically?
2. How many systems do they have on each of the territories?
3. What climate conditions are projected for the pacific islands?
4. Is there any information about previous climate adaptation projects they’ve implemented?
5. NOTE: Use statistics, data, graphs etc to strengthen your research for each territory and to give better insight.
6. EACH TERRITORY MUST BEGIN WITH AN "ABOUT" SECTION/PARAGRAPH. PLEASE ADD ABOUT SECTION IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS PAPER BEFORE THE STUDIES ARE LISTED. Find resources for that too. Some things to include in this section can be: What’s the history of the system and territory? How many wastewater facilities and drinking water facilities are there? How do they get their water? Are there any specifications to their treatment plants we need to know (i.e. capacity, how much pipe, what type of processes they use for treatment, etc).
*****IMPORTANT NOTE: Need to pull out some data showing where the priorities lie for the TERRITORIES. Also, make sure the information is concise and to the point. Try to make the information even easier to read/get across. Cut down on wordiness. USE PROPER GRAMMAR AND SPELLINGS. Make sure to include some very bare bones information that could be useful when discussing with the system (like ADDING the about section IN THE BEGINNING).
I have attached sample papers written about a different watershed or county so you can follow basic format or get an idea. THESE SAMPLES FOCUS DROUGHT AND FLOODING BUT NOW YOUR ORDER HAS DIFFERENT LOCATION SO AS MENTIONED ABOVE FIND OUT WHAT CLIMATE ISSUES THESE TERRITORIES ARE FACING!!!
One attached paper was an ORDER "CLACKAMAS WATERSHED" DONE BY ESSAYBASICS ALREADY. You can follow basic format of this order from the attached samples. The headings and names of documents are links if you notice and that will be useful. Also, please provide links on a separate page of all resources you will use.
PLEASE ASK IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS TO SAVE US FROM LENGTHY MULTIPLE REVISIONS.
AVOID GRAMMAR, SPELLINGs, OTHER TYPOS AND ERRORS PLEASE.
*Note: there isn’t a mention of stormwater collection or treatment on GWA’s website. • Guam Waterworks Authority (GWA) operates wastewater facilities , that also treat water for distribution across various water pointso 6 wastewater treatment plants:Northern District Wastewater Treatment Plants: Includes Upper Tumon and Dededo plants. The average daily flow is 5.51 MGD. Serves about 76,000 people. • Chemical enhanced primary treatment facilities. Design treatment includes a screening of raw sewage, pre-aeration for odor control, and mixing of coagulant and flocculation aid, (CEPT) and primary sedimentation. • GWA Website says these plants will be upgraded to secondary treatment, said will be complete by 2021. o Unclear if this has occurred. Hagåtña Wastewater Treatment Plant: One plant located in the village of Hagåtña. Chemical enhanced primary treatment. Average daily flow of 5.8 MGD. Serves about 82,645 people. This is a standalone facility. Southern Wastewater Treatment Plants: a group of four WWTPs • Agat-Santa Rita: The facility consists of headworks, flow equalization tanks, oxidation ditches (2 anoxic/anaerobic basins and 2 aerobic basins), 2 secondary clarifiers, 2 ultraviolet disinfection channels, and 3 aerobic digesters, and 2 gravity belt thickeners. Solids are removed from the secondary clarifier and sent to aerobic digestion, then sludge drying beds before being trucked to Northern District WWTP. The average daily flow is 1 MGD. Serves about 19,800 people. • Umatac: Lagoon facility. The average daily flow is 500,000 GPD. • Baza Gardens: Recently closed; wastewater is now directed to Agat-Santa Rita. • Inarajan: Lagoon facility. Treats 100,000 GPD. • Pago Socia: Treats 3,000 GPD.o 1 surface water treatment plant: Ugum Surface Water Treatment Plant (USWTP) is GWA’s only surface water production facility. The source is river water and uses membrane filtration and chlorine disinfection. The maximum capacity is 4 MGD but runs at about 2.3 MGD.o Additional GWA Facilities Deep Well Section of Production/Treatment Division: extracts groundwater. Tumon Maui Well: GWA operates and maintains the U.S. Air Force/Navy’...
