Abstract.
A
Terraforming model for 2 extreme
hydrological environments is presented that would address the backbone issues
of virgin environments that do not immediately facilitate biological life.
It is
assumed though that rather large ships beyond Earth's current payload capacity
would be involved. [one such is modelled herein]
The
precepts of this paper use the basic rules of physical chemistry and biological
dependency on nutritional and physical context and also incorporate genetic
switches for planned adaptation of farming stock.
Stellar
space contains many very large physical objects of high mass and high relative
gravity with suitable physical chemistry and ecological potential for the
growth of biological farming stock.
These
objects; planets, moons, very large asteroids, etc may have had no previous
complex biological life upon them as they may be missing several of the key
attributes of an emergent biological superstructure.
The
physical chemistry that would emerge telic self-regulation may be wholly or
partly absent.
Without
getting into the realms of rocket science however, and using the simple
physical and behavioural stimulii within known Terrestrial biology and ecology
it is possible to model the construction of a primitive ecosystem for farming
purposes.
Breaks
and switches recently created within today's genetic engineering can be used to
regulate both environmental genetic mutations and biochemical and behavioural
responses to the changing physical conditions within the environment.
Example
1. Terraforming Oceanography.
Liquid
assets in solar systems may include excessive hydrological environments e.g.
Europa, a moon of Jupiter.
In the
Sol system however, Europa is too cold for solar-driven fish farming.
Solar
conditions are ideal for Terrestrial fish whose genetics are ideally emerged to
suit; terrestrial light, temperatures and gravity and whose biological and
nutritional properties are known to be regular in these physical parameters.
Under
variant conditions, however, it has been modelled that mutations can and will
occur.
Research
by Cambridge biologist Brian Goodwin on the morphogenetic transitions of 'Acetabularia acetabulum, spp.' indicate
that Fajan's rules of chemical osmosis play an important part in the deployment
of DNA descriptions.
"The
gradient of Calcium with a maximum at the pole becomes unstable as growth
proceeds, and transforms into an annulus and flattens towards the tip." -
and then you get the whorl forming, I said as I watched a ring of schematic
hairs develop.'
'For
various mechanical reasons, in Acetabularia,
and in plants, generation of form is always accompanied by growth, a continual
outward expansion.' '.. [edited] .. animal embryos can generate complexity in
many more ways, including outward or inward deformation of sheets of cells,
migration of cells, and other means. As a result, animals can produce
tremendous internal complexity as well as intricate external pattern.'
Lewin R,
'Complexity, Life at the edge of chaos.', pub. Dent, 1993, ISBN 0-460-86092-5.
'The
basic morphogenetic events for eye formation are simply repeats of the basic
[rules] .. such that .. 'eyes are the product of high-probability spatial
transformations of developing tissues.'
'Making
an eye is easy !! .. 'which is very different from the Neo-Darwinist position.'
i.e. Offworld,
Terrestrial biology could get well funky.
There
would be no situation in 'in vivo' conditions where mutation would not occur.
There
would be two kinds of mutational tendency however.
a. Normative Mutation.
b. Abnormative Mutation.
The end
product of offworld farming therefore, may not be to everybody's taste or
texture.
Food
processing therefore may render certain crops within the intensive farming
infrastructure inviable as assets of mass production.
e.g. The Food
Processing Industry.
In the
Catering Industry, there are certain criteria for hygiene that must be met.
These would include the use of sterilisation equipment and techniques. e.g.
1. bullet frequency disruption signatures for e.g. bacterial and viral
membrane lipo-protein lysis or tRNA, etc.
2. extremes of temperature and pressure.
3. morphological constraints that may influence the rates of market
bio-degradation and also the physical tolerance of the standard packaging.
Within
the material constraints of offworld biofranchise - mutations of the original
filial genotype can occur because of the new factors within the physical
locality chosen for phenotypic growth.
These can
influence the velocity of growth, the uptake of growth factors, and an increase
or decrease in phenotypic sensitivity. Changes in the physical environment can
cause the development of mutations with the removal of normative and necessary constraints on
dormant phenotypic attributes.
In a
large scale naturalistic [extra terrestrial] ecosystem physical factors that
include; stellar inconsistency, genotypic response to a new stellar spectrum,
etheric and atomic inconsistency, new gravity and EM fields, new aggregate
ratios of contextual atomic chemistry all impact on biological emergence and
reproductive homeostasis.
Whatever
Filial F1 profile there may have been in the original farming stock, therefore,
is certain to change once it is moved elsewhere in time and space to be
franchised.
The
issues therefore with such produce are whether the mutation rates would be
considered by market standards either desirable or viable.
Unmarketable
abnormative mutations that are not toxic may be wasteful of corporate
resources. However, such end products may only suffer from a lack of market
intelligence or scientific knowledge.
·
In biological livestock there always
will be issues of uneconomical pathogenicity within farming.
There are two
transaction types in every and any given context that has any organic complex
system under observation.
These two aspects of
biological self-regulation plus the zoning and its power law relativities
within and between scales produces the 6 keys [T] systems theory which will be
more fully explained in these chapters.
e.g. Plant Biology
These common and
relative transactions can be modeled using the [HX] syllogism.
Z = Water, M =
Specific Ions, S = Plant System, Q = Physical Context, P = System Product and
Emerged Asset of Scaling Exploitation.
Plant Biology sits in
its ever-stressed niche 'piggy-backing' on the large-scale changes of
hydrological state between the extremely salty and dense soil and the dry,
turbulent and warmer air.

The common process
being exploited by piggy-back between the object system S (plant) and the
context is the transpiration stream. The fact that in the evaporation of
massive ground waters Z percolating through the geochemistry, from relatively
large scales within the geophysical context - there is a set of necessary ionic
ingredients M, making progress from greater to lesser scales of magnitude. This is driven by osmosis within the soil
and atmospheric conditions for evaporation.
i.e. ~2M >> ~3M
at time 2
This 'piggy back'
process is called a 'shuttle' and has definable ergonomic parameters. [SV].
The Plant Biology
model as more fully explained in chapter 11 illustrates the Plant making use of
and exploiting massive scalar difference within and between contextual
aggregates.
In offworld
biofarming, there will be many such opportunities for unusual pathogens.
Regular laboratory
monitoring of bio-excretions from livestock will identify issues within
metabolic failure and systemic integrity but would not necessarily identify
unknown dormant carriers within the livestock e.g. In the human digestive tract
normative commensal gut bacteria (enteric), include the genus Escherichia spp. Within such bacillus,
however, there are regular genetic transmigrations and also viral Infestations
by bacteriophages e.g. the T2 phage.
Such problems in new
industrial and planetary conditions may or may not be detectable dependent on
the nature of the viral casing or because that in their current context the
viral forms are dormant and or designated and classified as harmless.
The ongoing quest for
biological regularity, purity and phenotypic consistency in industrial farming
output is therefore a very important issue with both consumers and producers.
Given
that a morphological approach to pathogen identification is not necessarily the
only and best approach to take and that innate biological latency and gestation
is a natural fact, then part of the aeseptic approach to farming would
incorporate new approaches to diagnosis and prognosis.
New and
potential niches for pathogens can be identified by transference modelling
within the organism and by transference modelling of the new context e.g. using
[HX].
Given
existing industrial data on existing pathogens at all scales of operancy, e.g.
various scales and morphologies of predator in the food chain - it is possible
to use more complex pathogen/predator data from other scales in the same
ecosystem to predict new niches for new pathogens at the microbial level in
extra terrestrial farming.
The fact
that the livestock looks good and tastes good is not necessarily the only issue
in factorial productivity.
As in the
Plant Biology Model, pathogens also nest within transactions in exogenic
systems. These host systems have adapted and exploited scalar boundaries and
transitions within and between massive physical aggregates in a global context.
As has
been previously stated, an organic system has two issues to contend with.
1. is the regulation of its core self. [@f] $ [@g]
2. is the regulation of its self in relation to its contextual tolls.
[@t] $
[@d]
i.e. The
amount of growth from the amount of feeding is inversely proportional to the
amount of damage repaired at the site of the environmental toll.
In the
human body for example, in terms of; [T] and [HX], and given the context of an 'a priori' DNA script in abundance (+?, =:=), the macro, the primary intake
of contextual process and energy comes into the core and viscera of the
organism via the gut and lungs.
It then
empowers the meso, the formative processes of the Central Nervous System, bones
etc such that they drive and facilitate the assets of feedback from the
cognitive senses at the periphery of the being. [modelled below]
The Tripartite description for pathogenic opportunity.

MICRO PERIPHERAL PATHOGEN [@t] $ [@d] [context]
Mammalian
livestock e.g. The genus Bos, the
cow, or Suidae: - Sus scrofa, the domesticated pig like all organisms have;
macro, meso or micro and innately possess the issue of dual expenditure to
contend with. i.e. That of maintaining their endogenous regularity whilst
simultaneously attending to exogenous contextual issues.
The size
and systemic complexity of farming assets may vary greatly and so therefore
will the issues of pathogenicity.
In taking
a systemic and process strategy rather than solely a morphological one - it is
also possible to classify and model organisms - whether a potential host for
pathogens or not, in terms of their relative degrees of biological activity and
complexity, transference gradients and scale.
Organisms
tend to self-regulation or oogenesis.
This strategy
can be fulfilled using [T] modelling because it models function rather than a
potentially infinite pathogenic form.
Basically
on six aspected systems model in terms of a closed and limited number of
events. These events are in the language [A] and can be easily modelled.
[T], [A]
: In terms of relative biological knowledge an Octal classification of pathogenic opportunity
and proclivity predicts;
This [T]
set, defines the conditions for biological and ecological and physical states
of Niches in which reside the possibilities or impossibilities for some
life.
The
Tripartite [T] description for relative energy transference in organismic or
oogenic systems is called
the [N1] set. N1 = [n1, n2, n3 .. n8]
The
transference values in the ecosystem that the plant niche exploits by 'piggy
back' is called a 'Shuttle' and the 'Shuttle Value' or [SV] can be empirically
and ergonomically determined.
The [N1]
set models an increasing amount of complexity in natural systems that have also
an increasing number of ingredients that are involved in transference activity
or energy exchanges.
[n8]
could be a complex biological metabolism with a large system that is very
complex but slowly burning oxygen e.g. the complex porphyrin ring structure in
the red blood cell that embeds the ferocious oxidative potential of iron in the
blood
[n7]
could an invertebrate metabolism, e.g. insectoid, less complex and more
directly impinged upon by the environment, expending its life and energy in
shorter bursts and cycles.
[n6]
could be a plant with large numbers of organised simple molecules with a
relatively simple structure and mechanics, immobile etc but with a low
transference velocity in its reproduction allowing for complex interactions
reproductive within the environment.
[n5] could
be a fungal colony with large mycelium [rooting and fruiting system] made out
of relatively simple polysaccharides but answering to environmentally driven
short life and fruiting cycles.
[n4]
could be bacterial with small amounts of chemical aggregates operating a
relatively complex and invested life process.
[n3]
could be viral, short lived but operating and adapted within a systemic
complexity that is borrowed.
[n2]
could be molecular and physical chemistry aggregates e.g. soil where more
complex ionic interactions take place over time.
[n1] is monoatomic and ionic all readily and
immediately reactive.
A shuttle
is created by an organism or system piggy backing on a larger process. e.g. a
plant uses the physical parameters in the evaporation of ground water to power
its transpiration stream for xylem and phloem uptake from the roots, driven by
evaporation at the leaves.

modelling can be used to model the complexities of the ecosystem and its
organisms and the inner complexities of their transference. The language [HX]
is a universal medium for this.
Numbers
of intermediate states are generated, but these transitional values have a
definite and limited, finite, non-arbitrary essential number in every case.
A [T]
classification system for transference in 'Vivo',
or the wild state can be modelled at time2 by combining the 64 definitives of [T]
and [N1] with the further 665 modalities or uncertain transitions of [A] with
[N1] to produce at least 729 possibilities in a recombinative scenario for
logical modelling inclusive of modalities: where there is A to B through some
common C with the intercession of some common D.
There of
course could be more than D, e.g. E, F, G etc with thousands more definitive
transitions to adjust to in every time interval. i.e. computational and
ideological chaos !!
However, [A] modelling using essential numbering restricts and limits
this to finite essential numbers.
At time2, interacting system parts and other power laws within the
system create large definite numbers; 387420489 logically real events in the
language [T] at time2 and; 150094635296999000 events at time2 in the modal
logic [A] which includes undecided events.
These are massive yet finite numbers of which only 1 or close to 1 means
integrity and the other numbers describe states of relative disintegrity.
These numbers are repeatedly divisible by 6 as each component and each
component of a component etc has 6 issues.
The three biological zones have very different consequences. e.g.
peripheral muscle - micro, nerve - meso, or central formative cognitive ganglia
- macro.
The 6 system components will behave and interact; between, outwith,
within, acausally, causally, dependent and independent, in synergy or
antagonism etc of each other in the 3 systemic zones of the organism.
FARMING USING SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY [T] MODELS.
Biofarming without strict controls over the end product is going to
create enormous difficulties.
The evolution of commensal or neutral life forms that were part of the
stocks enteric activity may also play new and unwanted roles in any new
ecosystem.
Morphologies may change in different aggregates, but the functional
roles of the predator and its pathogenicity will nevertheless still target the
same predatory pathways in the host organism.
A
relationship between the disintegrity of the part and the disintegrity of the
whole can be worked out by empirical diagnostics from other organisms and this
data could be compiled such that the relative transference values and energy
levels and gradients within the organism can be used in other domains. This
isomorphism between domains compares modes and routes of discharge and transfer
through gradients and materials in each case and can be represented
topographically.
The time1 picture for modelling and diagnostics produces a limited
snapshot of static events within components from which to work.
e.g. The
classification system for pathogens [HXP1], P1 = [p1', p2', p3' .... p150094635296999000']. i.e. there is a maximum of 10
to the seventeen kinds of pathogenic effect in the universe. There may be
infinite form, but there is a finite limit to their function.
The
organic system or general system is repeatedly divisible by 6, and there are
ways to bring down the number of possible candidates by empirical evaluation of
affected zones.
The same
pathogen e.g. [p223'] may produce different effects within different host zones
and different pathogens may produce similar effects within similar and
different host zones.
With
millions of effects, certain and uncertain to observe predicated on the
presence of thousands of both known and unknown organisms - identifying the
main issues of primary and secondary infections become important.
Empirically
derived and modelled components of the stock organism can bring new levels of
economic reality to farming, stock maintenance and control.
A primary
pathogen can create new opportunities for usually harmless organisms to produce
further damage and exacerbate the problems of diagnosis and stock prognosis.
Also new
kinds of pathogenic collaboration may evolve different or greater toxicity with
e.g. synergy or antagonism.
However, if the livestock were evaluated and classified for their innate
and initial strengths and weaknesses within feeding gradients for pathogenic
opportunity - it can be possible to focus at e.g. time1 on the 262,144 'a priori' areas or classes of event within
livestock tissues and structure where pathogenic activity is exploiting the
transference velocities.
Similar
transference gradients within the host may also be known to be in the other 2
zones and not usually associated with a pathogenic process and these could also
be evaluated for contamination by
'biochemical isomorphism' between zones.
i.e.
looking for similar effects at different empirical scales within other models
and in other domains.
Irregular
biochemical changes as ascertained in biological excretion data may also be a
prelude to either favourable or unfavourable mutation in the livestock.
For
example, in a fish farm, biochemical evidence for increased growth rate and
increased muscle mass may be commensurate with increased activity and systemic
performance.
With the
amount of nutrition both in the water and in the feed at a constant, and the
numbers of fish remaining at normative levels, muscle mass is increasing. This
is a desirable effect of change, and once current internal and innate systemic
factors are excluded, can be ascribed to a drop in fish activity levels over a
regulated period of time. Instead of
quickly burning metabolites in episodes of higher ergonomic activity docile and
more sedentary behaviour will create more mass within the fish.
If the
fish are more active, demonstrating de-regulated behaviour and a lesser gain or
loss in biomass, then increased aggression is indicative of a different effect
within e.g. the Endocrine system and the Nervous System.
Behaviourism
has it that the endocrine system in the higher vertebrates powers the
aggressive and reproductive response with cortico-steroids such as androgens
and oestrogens.
In terms
of [T] modelling, and a constant farm input, K, to the core of the mutating
stock, the meso and micro of the mutated fish are now operating differently.
e.g. relative nerve and muscle activity in a batch of fish.

A planet
in a natural chaotic state and consisting of unknown conditions and
indiscernible transitions and scales of entropy will present many empirical challenges
to industry. Coming new into a situation that has no prior data or analysis
available with which to evaluate its market uses for farming, mining etc there
would need to be a bigger picture and modelling language with which to account
for these many varied and unknown and complex conditions.
The
languages or models [HXP1] and [HXD] for pathogens and diagnosis are time2
pictures for 'a priori' research and
provide a logically real starting point for empiricism.
These
events themselves are produced by a hierarchy of components within each [macro,
meso, micro] zone. Similarly each component and component of a component is
comprised of 6 issues and power law relativity and fixed essential numbers.
Having
said this, however, there are a finite and closed non-arbitrary number of them,
not an infinite diversity to choose from.
Heuristics will utilize data from the known performance of similar parts
in other organisms and the known observed and physically understood effects of
dysfunction on the whole in other organisms from an a priori industrial
database.
It can be
seen from the finite size of the numbers that [T] modelling has enabled a
potentially infinite number of untenable circumstances to be modelled where
previously no substantial modelling could have been possible.
OFFWORLD
BIOFARM GENESIS, SCENARIO 1.
extreme
hydrology - relatively simple ocean.
In terms
of [N1], the defined set of niches, the oceanic state would approximate [N =
n5, n6]. With e.g. temperate and tropical zones taking up n7 and n8
respectively.
The F1
primary fish stock is a relatively complex organism Salmo salar spp. [the salmon]. It combines migratory feeding,
electromagnetic navigation and location, geomagnetic and saline responses, high
and low temperatures and various internal and external natural rhythms and
bioclocks to precipitate its feeding and mating behaviour.
The use
of restrictions within the environment of bulk salmon farming inevitably
produces inviable stock through the lack of motility and metabolic exercise,
the lack of rigour in its behavioural and metabolic distribution, and its
static and steady environmental state renders its more globally orientated
metabolism vulnerable to predation from local seasonal micro-organisms.
Other
dangers of eutrophication and overfeeding destroy the virtue of the edibility
within the stock.
A remote
planet of suitable light, mass and suitably large hydrosphere has been located.
It is a simple ocean that can be bio-engineered such that natural F1 Salmo spp. can be deployed and reared in
bulk in a wild state for high quality fishmarkets.
e.g. LIVESTOCK RESEARCH AND BEHAVIOURAL
FINE-TUNING.
F1 Salmo, spp.
however, requires a
physically tactile environment that does not 'a priori' exist in such a
simple hydrosphere. The introduction of a new and competing biological surplus
into this environment i.e. wholescale primary seeding of the entire gamut of
lifeforms within the F1 lifecycle of the
Salmo, spp. from its
indigenous homeworld will not likely produce a workable effect in such an
ocean.
Massively
unregulated bio-diversity emerging new types of equilibria could produce
several new and divergent ecological competitors for Salmo, spp. under these new physical conditions e.g.
planetary and stellar aggregates etc.
These new
competitors would interrupt the salmon lifecycle such that the stock does not
obtain the benefits of a terraformed farm.
Introducing
an indigenous Salmo, spp. oceanic environment should be phased-in in
simple stages.
The
primary phase should be relatively artificially fed and supported whilst the Salmo, spp. bed into their new
geomagnetic geological, stellar and climatic conditions.
Light
conditions, and the intensity of certain light frequencies for instance,
influence shoal-forming behaviour in some fish. Under strange stellar
conditions, such disorientation after winter feeding and before the freshwater
phase may leave them open to unusual amounts of predation.
The ocean
floor however, contains no information that the Salmo, spp. would immediately
or ever use, for geophysical navigation and therefore it would be important to
create, in this instance, some guidance for the stock organism.
The main
factors in use in this instance are:
1. the
creation of a biomagnetic track system on the ocean floors using Fajan's Rules
for the guidance of Salmo, spp. migration.
2. the
use of bio-engineered micro-organisms with innate Termination-Gene sequences.
In the
natural Salmo, spp. environment, factors such as liking or
avoiding i.e. (philic or phobic) various stimulii at various
times interplay between the stock and other organisms in the ecosphere.
The
salmon, e.g. Salmo salar, migrate into fresh shallow water and
different lighting conditions to spawn under conditions of attrition, they may
also eat fly larvae in the freshwater, but feed voraciously on other fish
species e.g. the pelargic mackerel or herring, plankton such as 'euphausiids'
and also some amphipods and decapods in the cold salty oceanic waters.. to build up their nutritional levels
and their bio-mass such that they are sufficiently replete in metabolic
activity to migrate and spawn. In a new
freshwater ecology, the energy to compete, to mate, to reproduce and to return
to the ocean for the new annual cycle is very much dependent on the success of
the oceanic feeding cycle.
Under
these wild conditions, the salmon stock, constantly washed by massively
turbulent seawater is at its most edible and free of the shallow freshwater or
brackish water parasites that could predate in a restricted inland farm.
Static
fish farming has usually produced a docile, anaemic and parasite-laden end
product.
Managing
Ecological Complexity in Terraformed Environments.
Interactive
ecological processes amongst new, established and emergent life processes will
produce numerous new food chains and new kinds of predatory cycling between
predator and prey and other natural competitors in all stages and scales of the
food pyramid.
Interactivity
between scales, complexity and velocity of the organic can be modelled for
diagnostic purposes in stock organism using the limited set of; core, formative
system and periphery. This produced the [N1] set of niche numbers [n1 - n8]
that depicted increasing scale and complexity of transference which can be used
to describe various parts of the ecosystem or the ecosystem as a whole.
Ecological
diversity is predicated, generally speaking, on the relativity of physical and
chemical co-operation between all scales of physical diversity in the
ecosystem.
The core
of the ecosystem or macro, the most simple and massive scales of aggregate are
the basic simples that sustain the more complex and bigger predator-prey
cycles.
In the
predator-prey cycling models, as the numbers of prey increase, so eventually do
the number of predators in the predatory population, until they eventually
through sheer scale and efficiency, overwhelm the numbers of prey species,
which then die off, declining rapidly. As this happens, there is less abundance
of resources and the predator species competes amongst itself, excluding and
eliminating the weakest predators in its own species, maintaining the
efficiency of its own genotypic behaviour as it does so.
When the
number of predators are reduced, the prey species, ergonomically smaller and
more simple and therefore utilising faster growth and replication strategies
starts again to increase in population size and
abundance - as again do the predators. etc.
At this scale in the ecosystem, however, the bigger predator- prey
relationships of interest in livestock farming appear more detached from the
bigger environmental process.
A more global or 'continental' picture has it though, that for seasonal
growth and ecological performance to improve, factors such as temperature,
light, water, nutrition must become more consistent and regulated and must
become stable enough to facilitate the growth cycle appropriate to the scale of
the animal being farmed.
The regulatory persistence of such 'growth seasons' however, have at
their root a basic physical fact. That at the highest frequencies of physical
inconsistency, e.g. short optimal temperature cycles, only the organisms with
the greatest physical tolerances and fastest life cycle will grow.
In the core of the ecosystem, in 'winter- spring' as it were, frequent
temporal 'stutters' in physical temperature can facilitate the growth cycles of
the smaller micro-organisms O1, such that they become abundant enough to feed
another layer of more complex organisms. These, O2, pushing up their numbers to a threshold population tenaciously
regulated by sharp inconsistencies within the changing climate.
As the inconsistencies and sharp contrasts of growth temperatures and
available light decrease, however, and biomass increases, the life cycle of
more and more complex organisms O3, can be facilitated by the more consistent
conditions for energy and behavioural investments in; mating, gestation and
growth.
Thus the larger predators at the Periphery of the ecosystem feed on the
Core through the stellar-driven formative engine of physical conditions and
tolerances, and geo-chemical and topographical activity.
In modelling new planetary environments, in conjunction with accurate
empirical data on the physical processes from scans and an 'a priori' database of physical and organic state descriptions we
will be able to predict either the kinds of life form to be found or the kinds
of lifeform that could be sustained on these new worlds.
In an aeseptic but relatively unresonant world full of natural
electromagnetic insulation a synthetic migratory mechanism may be required to
orientate salmo spp.
Using high-energy activity series electro magnetic elements and or high
EMF cables, a migratory track can be laid down that the salmon will recognise.
Several tracks from deep cold and relatively salty feeding grounds that
constructively lead through areas of changing temperature, light and salinity
such that dependent on climatic conditions, the best amenable route to a
freshwater landzone can be selected.
The reality of the simple planetary ecosystem as described is of an
oceanic environment with not much complex organic growth, mud or silt, but with
migrating gravel banks etc deeps and shallows with freshwater processes on some
areas of land that would suit the salmon for spawning.
Then, the
introduction of plankton and other silt forming organisms with self-terminating
genes could be introduced under conditions of massive eutrophication such that
degrees of silting and organic detrius may begin to establish.
Halophilic,
(salt liking), Thermophilic and Thermophobic attributes of these organisms can
be used to form a discernible F1 indigenous 'bio-electrical' signature in these
new waters over and within the Salmon's perceptions of the synthetic tracks.
If the
planet has its own naturally strong EMF signatures in the oceanic bedrock that
the salmon will frequent, then F1 silt forming plankton and algae may attenuate
these circumstances.
The
strategy, therefore is to ensure that the primary stock species at the top of
this foodchain has an unobstructed and useable navigation system to aid its
lifecycle and growth.
Salmon
Feeding Grounds and other Nutritional Aspects.
The
salmon, Salmo, will feed on small organisms and pelagic fish
(PF), in the open sea. It's artificially managed feed stock though must be
dependably maintained as they may pass on several environmental problems into
the nutritional cycle of the salmon.
e.g. a
methodological approach to these many problems may include ...
1. The feedstock (PF) may mutate, therefore
innate genetic engineering in (PF) that uses a self-terminating genetic
sequence (tG) in its constitution can be engineered such that the (PF) is
ignoring a potentially fatal mineral in the local ocean until the genetic clock
stops running.
2. The introduction of a new hotzone mineral
salt locally to the feedstock feeding grounds in the cold zone that is
beneficial and good for the salmon, will cause the feedstock will terminate by
(tG).
3. The introduction of a mineral salt
unrecognisable to but tolerated by the salmon were introduced into the cold
zone causing the feedstock to terminate by (tG).
4. The elimination of stock by catalytic high
frequency irradiation that will disrupt e.g. fish cell membranes.
5. Nutrient deficiency in the oceanic
environment can be attenuated by a slight and relative enrichment of the
feedstock.
In this
case it should be noted that biological concentration of minerals in complex
systems cause abnormal levels of toxicity in the vital organs of the prey
species. e.g. liver, kidneys.
The
salmon and young salmon or salmonid will feed until satiety and seasonal
climatic changes urge their behaviour towards the physics of the reproductive
waters, and consequent physiological changes.
There may
be a primary, secondary and tertiary feedstock species, or perhaps only a
primary species plus artificial supplement etc, but dependably, the feeding
grounds of the salmon are predictably in the open sea given that they can
navigate their way there. Thus extraneous supplements are local and in the open
sea and concentration recycling and distillation of minerals in feedstock do
not form a part of the breeding activity or the whole of the Salmo lifecycle.
Should
that problem occur, the feedstock could be evaluated in isolation and or
terminated.

topographical cues, channels, valleys and stockpens for both the salmon and the
feedstock can be created using sensitively tuned electromagnetic radiation

Such a
classification system 'in Vivo', or the wild state can be modelled
at time2 by combining the 64 definitives of [T] and [N1] with the further 665
modalities or uncertain transitions of [A] with [N1] to produce at least 729
possibilities in a recombinative scenario for logical modelling inclusive of
modalities: where there is A to B through some common C with the intercession
of some common D.
There of
course could be more than D, e.g. E, F, G etc with thousands more definitive

ideological chaos without [A] modelling !!
Atmospheric
diversity, is predicated on the relativity of physical and chemical
co-operation between all scales of physical diversity in the atmospheric
chemistry driven by stellar emissions. There being 6 power laws between all the
components involved.

The traditional macro aggregate or 'emergence pyramid'
for physical chemistry should be viewed as 'upside down',
This model is analogous to the ocean and biological cycling.
A pyramid of molecular numbers where the most important of the scarcer
life-supporting atmospheric gases supplying oxidative metabolic transport
systems in carbon-based life-forms are the emerged and nested asset within a
massively turbulent and stellar driven atmosphere.
The core
of the atmosphere or macro, the most simple or 'biologically neutral' and
massive scales of aggregate are the basic simples that sustain the more complex
and bigger reactive ionisation pathways amongst life-supporting gasses of lower
volume and proportion.
In the
life-supporting ionisation cycling model, as the numbers of ionised radicals increase, so eventually do
the number of biochemically useful gasses and recombinant molecules.
Variation
in biologically useful atmospheric concentrations comes when stellar driving
and ionisation rates and frequencies diminish.
When such
energy input drops below an amount per volume of the atmospheric gas ratio,
eventually the sheer scale and non-reactivity of the simples, overwhelm the
numbers of available ionised biologically useful recombinants and the gases
revert to a more inert state, as available driving energy and recombinant
opportunity diminishes.
As the
numbers of complex and biologically active molecules diminish, there is again a
greater abundance of ionisation energies in the ionosphere, and the species of
biological-driving complex transitional molecules with far less to react with,
loses energy.
The
biologically re-active gases exclude and eliminate from their emergence
activity the weakest ratios and gradients, and concentrations and ionisation
energies within the unique planetary atmospheric ratio as they tend to atomic
simplicity.
This
reversion maintains the relative atomic efficiency and availability for new
stellar driving.
When the
number of biologically useful molecules are reduced, the macro atmospheric
aggregates and ratios, that are biologically more inert, more simple and
abundant utilise greater mass and mixing from turbulence to dilute the reactive
elements.
Stellar
driving starts again to increase the abundance of ionisation donors and those
molecules with catalytic potential and pushes up the numbers of atomically
active radicals. Again the numbers of biologically useful and reactive gases
start to re-cycle and increase. etc.
At the
scale of terraforming a planetary atmosphere for the purposes of furnishing an
ecosystem, however, the more biologically useful oxidation and reduction
molecular relationships of interest in livestock farming appear more detached
from the bigger environmental process.
The more
global and 'stellar' picture has it though, that for atmospheric growth and
ecological performance to improve, factors such as; stellar efficiency, stellar
intensity, planetary mass, spin, velocity, tilt, and atmospheric gas ratios,
ratios of suspended colloidal rock dust etc must become more consistent and
regulated.
This
stability must facilitate the growth cycles of biological gases for REDOX
reactions appropriate to the scale of the animal being farmed and also the
unique ratios of biogases inherent in the aggregates of the planetary
atmosphere.
[e.g. in
terms of ergonomic factors for a biological metabolism, including; size-mass
ratio, gas intake, etc.]
The
regulatory persistence of such biogas 'growth seasons' in the solar system
however, have at their root a basic physical fact. That at the highest
frequencies of physical inconsistency within the solar system, only the
atmospheric gases with the greatest physical volume, will be the most active.
If the
planetary atmosphere requires relatively persistent high ionisation energies to
fire biologically useful emergent recombination of redox gases because of its
sparse mixture and ratios of biogas to inert gases and only receives an
infrequent opportunity to create it because of cooling, dust, etc then it will
likely stay inert to biologically complex life.
In the
core of the atmosphere, at a 'biogas
threshold' or oogenic redox threshold [ORT], frequent temporal 'stutters' in
stellar and planetary conditions can facilitate the ionisation cycles of the
most abundant and or reactive gases, G1, such that they become abundant enough
to drive and input to the emergence of
another layer of more complex gaseous recombination, G2.
If
stellar driving continues and persists in intensity and abundance under both
stellar and planetary conditions, it
pushes up the numbers of [ORT]
components to a threshold concentration tenaciously regulated by sharp
inconsistencies within the changing stellar and planetary interaction.
As the
inconsistencies and sharp contrasts of [ORT] ionisation energies decrease and
available recombinants increase, biogas activity increases. The gas and
material cycles of more and more dense planetary surface chemistry G3,
therefore, can be facilitated by the more consistent conditions for energy and
biochemical investments in; oxidation, reduction and geological sensitivity.
Thus the
biogas/[ORT] activity forms part of a macro core of a biological ecosystem that
is driven and fed through the activities of a stellar-driven formative engine
of physical atmospheric conditions and tolerances, and ultimately geo-chemical
atmospheric ratios and the activity of turbulent atmospheric mass.
In
modelling new planetary atmospheres, [HXB2] and [HXB3] in conjunction with
accurate empirical data on the physical processes from scans and an 'a priori' database of physical, organic
and atmospheric state descriptions will be able to predict atmospheric
behaviour. [HXA], [HXB2] and [HXB3] will logically model either;
1. the kinds of 'oogenic redox threshold' [ORT] for life forms to be found, or,
3. the kinds of lifeform from [ORT] values, that could be definitely
sustained on these new worlds under changing and developing stellar and
planetary physics and chemistry.
By the
use of impacted ice asteroids atmospheres could be seeded to skew their
mixtures towards biological teleology on suitable planets.
As has
been previously stated, an atmosphere is an organic oogenic system and
therefore has two issues to contend with.
1. is the
regulation of its core self. [@f] $ [@g] planet
2. is the
regulation of its self in relation to its contextual tolls. [@t] $ [@d] planet
and star.
In a
solar system in the planetary body for example, in terms of; [T] and [HX], and
given the context of an 'a priori' atmospheric aggregate bound under the terms
of mass and gravity sufficient for atmospheric activity and interactivity
within its-self and between its star (+?, =:=), the macro, the primary and most
numerous aggregates of the atmospheric contextual process and recipient of
stellar energy comes pours into the core of biogas components a stream of
ionisation energy via an uncommon and small percentage of mutated macro
molecules that are radical and facilitative of the more potentially active
biogas molecules. These biogas molecules may be of a far lesser number in
volume and concentration in ratio to the inert gases.
These
radical facilitations then empower the meso, the formative processes of the
biogas physical chemistry, for redox transactions etc, such that they drive and
facilitate the assets of biochemical and oxidative and combustive feedback from
the geochemistry and ecosystem on the planets surface.

Taking a

Such a
classification system in 'Vivo', or
the wild state can be modelled at time2 by combining the 64 definitives of [T]
and [N1] with the further 665 modalities or uncertain transitions of [A] with

ideological chaos without the Language [A] !!
With [T]
modelling and 8 types of atmospheric
conditions at time1 in each of the 3 atmospheric zones, i.e. upper, middle and
lower, and each zone having 2 systemic issues, there are, realistically
speaking;
8 * 8 =
64 classes of [T] process interruption to evaluate at time2 amongst the
relatively differentiated organic complexity and gradients within the 3
different systemic zones.

Integrity
and dis-integrity of the atmosphere could have very different consequences.
e.g. disruption and stripping by a
large interplanetary mass or meteorite, or active geothermal and pelean
vulcanism from the movement of continental tectonic plates. There, ongoing
introduction of dust and the introduction of new geochemical aggregates could
dampen and destroy the redox threshold for biogas in the atmosphere.
The upper
atmosphere and aggregates have stellar energy incoming, and given consistency,
this has a feeding gradient that supplies and facilitates the biogas
interactions of the meso elements whilst paying its toll to systemic planetary
and stellar entropy.
The
'middle' atmosphere, includes both the atmosphere in the middle strata between
the ground and the atmospheric edge in the stratosphere, and also the layer in
which the 'middle' or 'transitional' and reactive elements of the periodic
table of chemistry (in low proportions on Earth), that facilitate the rich
diversity of biology are fed and fired into radical interactivity by the more
highly ionised and usually more inert gases.
This meso
layer has a toll to pay to the upper macro layer of chemistry and also to the
micro layer of emerged biological asset gases of the micro layer. The gases of
the micro layer themselves are being dragged into energy-expensive geochemical
interactivity with denser and more massively scaled and potentially reactive
and interactive elements and physical features of the planetary surface.
As a starting framework, therefore, the reality of these 64 static
physical atmospheric processes within the macro, meso and micro zones of the atmosphere
will enable the classification of failure within the unique complexity of the
physical structure and behaviour within each of the three zones.
At any time2, there are
150094635296999000, logical sources of systemic ailment causing numerous
observable effects on interaction.
However,
recombinant systems activity within the organism between the core, the meso and
the periphery will also produce a
limited number of versions of holistic systemic failure or success observable
as the effects of one of the logical [T] set of [HXA1] as the oogenic system
interacts.
Effectively
though, there would be in [HXA1], 150094635296999000 static,
logical types of atmospheric process interruption within the whole that have
previously been empirically evaluated to look for at time2. Such systemic
atmospheric disruption, (or change or mutation) at various scales of molecular
differentiation can also be modelled from the 6 driving power laws within the
atmosphere.
These
process interruptions have been classified from prior atmospheric measurement
and understanding and will behave and interact; between, outwith, within,
acausally, causally, dependent and independent, in synergy or antagonism etc of
each other in the 3 systemic zones of the oogenic system.
These failures
will produce the limited logical possibility of
150094635296999000 types of [T] system effects at time2
as diagnostic events e.g. closed, finite and limited atmospheric events as
finite orders of magnitude in the language [T] and [A] within the atmosphere
despite a seeming arbitrary infinity of interactive disintegration to
experience !!
The
Language [A] and atmospheric engineering.
A
planetary atmosphere in a natural chaotic state and consisting of unknown
conditions and indiscernible physical and chemical transitions and scales of
entropy will present many empirical challenges to industry. Coming new into a
planetary atmospheric analysis that has no prior data or analysis available
with which to evaluate its market uses for farming, mining etc there would need
to be a bigger picture and modelling language with which to account for these
many varied and unknown and complex conditions.
The
language [HXA] is a time1 or time2 picture for 'a priori' research and provide a logically real starting point for
empiricism in the evaluation of a solar system.
However,
the time2 picture is more varied and numerous in its state descriptions and
models. The macro atmospheric core, the meso and the micro geological periphery
at time2 each have [@f] and [@g] i.e. 6 power laws responsible for integrity.
These
logically real dynamic state descriptions at time2 can account for the
interactive complexity of the whole atmosphere.
Having
said this, however, there are a finite and closed non-arbitrary number of them,
not an infinite diversity to choose from.
It can be
seen from the size of the numbers that [T] and [A] modelling has enabled a
potentially infinite number of untenable terraforming and exploratory
circumstances to be modelled where previously no substantial modelling could
have been possible.
There
follows a proposed descriptive physical model for an application of atmospheric
engineering towards the eventual creation of a biologically viable ecosystem:
Terraforming with a High Sulphur atmosphere.
With the onset of atmospheric precipitation in a rich geologically
challenged atmosphere, highly acidic or alkaline or biotoxic hydrology is
likely to ensue.
The biology of extreme environments however, has produced very
resilient, extremophilic organisms uniquely adapted to environmental stresses.
Halophilic,
acidophilic etc genetically engineered fruiting organisms will deposit and
concentrate their xylem or rooting uptakes in their fruiting bodies.
These
will fall off when ripe to supply the new growing season's seeds with food
concentrates.
This
biological mechanism or 'shuttle opportunity' could be used to filter and
extract high salt concentrates in soils being terraformed.
With some
conditions for plant growth satisfiable ,the F1 foundation crop could be sewn such
that it occupied the sides of a drainage basin or valley and that when it
rained, the run-off waters would wash over the crop and carry loose material
and detritus into streams and rivers (temporary or permanent).
The husk
of the fruiting body of this crop could be engineered to be strong and to have
buoyancy compartments such that the waters would float the salt concentrates
contained in the fruit into the run-off sluices, where these could be
collected, evaluated and or disposed of.
The use
of primary, secondary and tertiary ecological pyramid and food-chain building
at either microbiological levels or larger multicellular levels is predicated
upon the fact that the secondary organism utilises and thrives on a bi-product
of the first, and the third on the second etc.
Use of
acidophilic and halophilic tolerance mechanisms in plant and micro-organisms to
lock up and store the more toxic concentrations of salt and acids in detritus,
fruit and biomass will be made with the use of genetic engineering.
The smallest,
and most reactive of the likely metallic salts to emerge across a membrane and
into the fruiting body is sodium.
e.g. it
is high in the activity series of the periodic table of chemistry.
It may
make fast progress to the outer husk of any seed, where it may form further
associations with the atmospheric vapour content of sulphurous acid, or form
sodium hydroxide, chloride, etc.
Once the
growth limitations of the fruit are reached, the transference gradient for the
salts will begin to slow down and eventually cease as the osmotic balances
begin to alter the transference gradients from the plant transport system.
As the
concentration of sodium salts builds up, in and on the epidermis of the fruit
across the sodium transport mechanism within the fruit, the velocity of sodium
in the osmotic transference will slow down eventually to a stop.
These
oogenic signals for 'ripening' etc have physical consequences for both the
structure of the fruit and the stem that attaches it to the plant.
Fruit-cell
membranes could also be engineered to withhold certain of the larger ionic
salts within the fruiting body and actively or passively transport or deny
access to other ions.
e.g. by
virtue of fruit membrane size, potassium or sodium are potentially the smallest
and most reactive of any of the metallic salts that can be extracted from the
soil by the root system.
These
minerals and their new ratios caused by prolonged seasonal activity of the
terraforming filtration crop will assist in the creation of an environment
where sodium and perhaps potassium have more direct exposure to the sulphurous
and acidic atmospheric constituents.
In a more
dense acidic atmosphere that is sulphurous, sulphurous and sulphuric acidic are
highly corrosive BI-products of increasing water vapour levels.
Acidification
of an ocean may be attenuated for example by alkaline biomass.
For
example plankton protozoan include the foraminifers,
radiolarians, and tinting ciliates. Shells of the former
two groups are an important part of the geological record in marine sediments.
[Odum EP, 'The Fundamentals of Ecology edn3.', pub. 1971, Saunders, ISBN
0-7216-6941-7, Page 335].
These
calciferous shells form limestone sedimentary rock under various conditions.
Their high concentrations of calcium carbonate, however, would react vigorously
with any sulphurous acidic rain, whenever such rains could be precipitated
using seeding techniques.
By
building up successive layers of biological complexity and 'bio-chemical
locking' of various minerals within the biomass, it may become possible to
exploit both the atmosphere and the geology as creators of new niches in
certain phases of their exposure to greater or lesser inputs of energy.
In this
way the 'bio-chemical locking'
continues into other micro-organism and or plant generations such that the
rates of primary chemical activity are slowed down and their release back into
the atmosphere and soil is more attenuated. Then greater and greater potentials
arise within certain areas of cultivated growth - windows of opportunity and
biological neutrality which may facilitate the life cycle of a more
agricultural plant - or animal.
From
[Odum, 1971, p.332] 'One thing oceanic plankton surveys have shown is that the
distribution is very patchy with concentrations of phytoplankton sometimes
occurring in different places from concentrations of zooplankton.
The
latter observation has led to the idea that secretion of anti-biotics results
in 'mutual exclusion' of plant and animal components, but this could be partly
a sampling artefact in that the smaller (and hence overlooked) zoo-plankton
would be expected to thrive in the midst of an algal bloom. It seems probable
that zooplankton are both attracted and repelled by excreted metabolites since
they are often concentrated around the edges of blooms.'
It is
also likely, that the physically smaller zooplankton create less physical drag
in the oceanic turbulence and therefore under various physical conditions in
seawater form their strange attractors and basins of attraction in physically
different and separate localities in the ocean from the larger phytoplankton.
'The
important work of Gordon Riley and his co-workers should be mentioned (first
summarized in a monograph by Riley, Strommel, and Bumpus, 1949, with later work
and mathematical models reported by Riley, 1963 and 1967). They found that the
amount and seasonal distribution of both phytoplankton and zooplankton in any
region could be predicted by means of a formula based on certain important
limiting factors of the environment and physiological coefficients determined
from laboratory experimentation. In
very simplified and nonmathematical form the formula they devised for
estimating phytoplankton production is as follows:
Rate of
phytoplankton growth [@g] is directly proportional to the rate of
photosynthetic opportunity [@f],
Predation,
sinking out of effective activity zones and respiratory periods causes damage
to the growth rates [@d] because the toll is directly linked to the behaviour
of the physical processes within the ocean [@t] that include massive turbulence
with negative results, temperature deficits, oceanic currents etc within the
operational medium of the organism.
From
[Odum, 1971, p.332], ' Respiration is largely determined by temperature, and
photosynthesis was found to be largely limited by temperature, light, and
phosphate concentration. Knowing the density of herbivores, the 'grazing
pressure' was determined from data obtained in laboratory cultures. Although
the computation is complex, the loss, if any, as a result of sinking plant
cells below the euphotic zone can be determined from oceanographic data.'
Riley's
model from the 1960's upholds the uses of [T] modelling and [HX] Assembler as
applied to e.g. ecological systems theory constructs.
