The carrying capacity of an environment is the maximum population size of a biological species that can be sustained by that specific environment, given the food, ...
Tourism carrying capacity (TCC) is an imperfect [1] but useful approach to managing visitors in vulnerable areas. [2]
An activity involving a ship under Sea Toll Program. All ships under the program have "Tol Laut" (meaning Sea Toll) written on their hull. The Sea Toll Program (Indonesian: Tol Laut), sometimes called the Sea Highway Program, [1] is a program initiated by former Indonesian president Joko Widodo.
Deadweight tonnage is a measure of a vessel's weight carrying capacity, not including the empty weight of the ship. It is distinct from the displacement (weight of water displaced), which includes the ship's own weight, or the volumetric measures of gross tonnage or net tonnage (and the legacy measures gross register tonnage and net register tonnage).
In the r/K-selection model, the first variable r is the intrinsic rate of natural increase in population size and the second variable K is the carrying capacity of a population. [33] Different species evolve different life-history strategies spanning a continuum between these two selective forces.
Carrying capacity, the population size of a species that its environment can sustain; Capacity planning, the process of determining the production resources needed to meet product demand; Capacity building, strengthening the skills, competencies and abilities of developing societies; Productive capacity, the maximum possible output of an economy
In 1947 the Transportation Corps developed the Transporter, a rigid, corrugated steel container with a 9,000 lb (4,100 kg) carrying capacity, for shipping household goods of officers in the field. It was 8 ft 6 in (2.59 m) long, 6 ft 3 in (1.91 m), and 6 ft 10 in (2.08 m) high, with double doors on one end, mounted on skids, and had lifting ...
Today's bulk carriers are specially designed to maximize capacity, safety, efficiency, and durability. Today, bulk carriers make up 21 percent of the world's merchant fleets, [ 2 ] and they range in size from single-hold mini-bulk carriers to mammoth ore ships able to carry 400,000 metric tons of deadweight (DWT).
