A series of processes in which atmospheric sulfur dioxide is oxidized to the trioxide, which combines with water and is washed out on to the Earth's surface as sulfuric acid or sulfates; bacterial action converts the sulfates into hydrogen sulfide, which is then oxidized to sulfur dioxide. This mechanism maintains the global atmospheric concentration of sulfur dioxide at a roughly constant level, and it is important to ensure that the extra sulfur dioxide produced by man does not overload it, leading to steadily increasing concentration in the air. 3, record 1, English, - sulfur%20cycle

Mais comme la plupart des débats sur la pollution, celui concernant les pluies acides péchait par la faiblesse des certitudes et l'ampleur des questions en suspens. Que devient le soufre dans l'atmosphère? Quel est le cycle du soufre? Quelle est la part des activités humaines et celle des phénomènes naturels volcaniques dans les émissions de soufre? Quel rôle jouent les océans? 3, record 1, French, - cycle%20du%20soufre

Overload Mechanism : Once you’re able to do 10 sets of 10 with constant rest intervals, increase the weight on the bary by 4% to 5%, and repeat the process. Refrain from using forced reps, negatives, or burns. The volume of the work will take care of the hypertrophy. Expect to have some deep muscle soreness without having to resort to set prolonging techniques. In fact, after doing a quad and hams session with this method, it takes the average bodybuilder about five days to stop limping. 1, record 2, English, - set%20prolonging%20technique
