Primeval Forest
An old-growth forestalso termed primary forest, virgin forest, late seral forest, primeval forest, or first-growth forestis a forest that has attained great age without significant disturbance, and thereby exhibits unique ecological features, and might be classified as a climax community. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations defines primary forests as naturally regenerated forests of native tree species where there are no clearly visible indications of human activity and the ecological processes are not significantly disturbed. More than one-third (34 percent) of the world's forests are primary forests. Old-growth features include diverse tree-related structures that provide diverse wildlife habitat that increases the biodiversity of the forested ecosystem. Virgin or first-growth forests are old-growth forests that have never been logged. The concept of diverse tree structure includes multi-layered canopies and canopy gaps, greatly varying tree height ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Primeval Number
In recreational number theory, a primeval number is a natural number ''n'' for which the number of prime numbers which can be obtained by permuting some or all of its digits (in base 10) is larger than the number of primes obtainable in the same way for any smaller natural number. Primeval numbers were first described by Mike Keith. The first few primeval numbers are :1, 2, 13, 37, 107, 113, 137, 1013, 1037, 1079, 1237, 1367, 1379, 10079, 10123, 10136, 10139, 10237, 10279, 10367, 10379, 12379, 13679, ... The number of primes that can be obtained from the primeval numbers is :0, 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11, 14, 19, 21, 26, 29, 31, 33, 35, 41, 53, 55, 60, 64, 89, 96, 106, ... The largest number of primes that can be obtained from a primeval number with ''n'' digits is :1, 4, 11, 31, 106, 402, 1953, 10542, 64905, 362451, 2970505, ... The smallest ''n''-digit number to achieve this number of primes is :2, 37, 137, 1379, 13679, 123479, 1234679, 12345679, 102345679, 1123456789, 10123456789, .. ...

Primeval History
The primeval history is the name given by biblical scholars to the first eleven chapters of the Book of Genesis, the story of the first years of the world's existence. It tells how God creates the world and all its beings and places the first man and woman (Adam and Eve) in his Garden of Eden, how the first couple are expelled from God's presence, of the first murder which follows, and God's decision to destroy the world and save only the righteous Noah and his sons; a new humanity then descends from these sons and spreads throughout the world, but, although the new world is as sinful as the old, God has resolved never again to destroy the world by flood, and the history ends with Terah, the father of Abraham, from whom will descend God's chosen people. Structure and content The history contains some of the best-known stories in the Bible plus a number of genealogies, structured around the five-fold repetition of the ''toledot'' formula ("These are the generations of..."): * Th ...

Primeval (TV Series)
''Primeval'' is a British Science fiction on television, science-fiction television programme produced for ITV (TV network), ITV by Impossible Pictures. ''Primeval'' follows a team of scientists tasked with investigating the appearance of temporal anomalies across the United Kingdom through which prehistoric and futuristic creatures enter the present, while simultaneously trying to stop the End of the world (fiction), end of the world. ''Primeval'' was created by Tim Haines, who previously created the ''Walking with...'' documentary series, and Adrian Hodges. It ran for five series, originally broadcast from 2007 to 2011. The idea for ''Primeval'' had originally been devised by Haines in the early 2000s, in the aftermath of the production of ''Walking with Dinosaurs''. Originally intended as a production for the BBC, ''Primeval'' was ultimately turned down in 2005 after several years of concepting due to being deemed too similar to the revived ''Doctor Who'' by executives. Haines ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
