Ernest Henry Tourlet
Ernest Henry Tourlet (1843, in Chinon – 1907) was a French pharmacist and amateur botanist.

He studied pharmacy, natural sciences and chemistry in Paris, afterwards returning to his hometown of Chinon, where in 1868 he succeeded his father at the local pharmacy. Up until his death his in 1907, he collected plants throughout the department of Indre-et-Loire. He is credited with creating the most important herbarium in Indre-et-Loire (11,000 sheets of specimens showcasing 1530 species).

He published many of his findings in the Bulletin de la Société botanique de France. His "Catalogue raisonné des plantes vasculaires du département d'Indre-et-Loire" was unfinished at the time of his death.

In 1866 he became an associate member of the Société botanique de France. The sedge species Carex tourletii Gillot ex Tourlet (synonym Carex muelleriana) is named after him.

Chinon
Chinon (French pronunciation: [ʃinɔ̃] ⓘ) is a commune in the Indre-et-Loire department, Centre-Val de Loire, France.

The traditional province around Chinon, Touraine, became a favorite resort of French kings and their nobles beginning in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The Renaissance châteaux which they built new or erected on the foundations of old fortresses earned this part of the Loire Valley the nickname  "The Garden of France." Chinon played an important and strategic role during the Middle Ages, serving both French and English kings.

Chinon is known for its wine, castle, and historic town. Its part of the Loire Valley has been registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000.
Sakhalin-II
The Sakhalin-2 (Russian: Сахалин-2) project is an oil and gas development in Sakhalin Island, Russia.  It includes development of the Piltun-Astokhskoye oil field and the Lunskoye natural gas field offshore Sakhalin Island in the Okhotsk Sea, and associated infrastructure onshore.  The project is managed and operated by Sakhalin Energy Investment Company Ltd. (Sakhalin Energy).

Sakhalin-2 includes the first liquefied natural gas plant in Russia. The development is situated in areas previously little touched by human activity, causing various groups to criticize the development activities and the impact they have on the local environment.

Petroleum reservoir
A petroleum reservoir or oil and gas reservoir is a subsurface accumulation of hydrocarbons contained in porous or fractured rock formations. Such reservoirs form when kerogen (ancient plant matter) is created in surrounding rock by the presence of high heat and pressure in the Earth's crust.

Reservoirs are broadly classified as conventional and unconventional reservoirs. In conventional reservoirs, the naturally occurring hydrocarbons, such as crude oil (petroleum) or natural gas, are trapped by overlying rock formations with lower permeability, while in unconventional reservoirs the rocks have high porosity and low permeability, which keeps the hydrocarbons trapped in place, therefore not requiring a cap rock. Reservoirs are found using hydrocarbon exploration methods.
Litoranea Veneta
The Litoranea Veneta is a network of some 600 km of canals and navigable stretches of river in the Veneto region of north-east Italy.

Until the mid-twentieth century and the reclamation of the extensive areas of marshland around the lower courses of the rivers Po, Adige, Brenta, Sile, Piave, Livenza and Tagliamento, these waterways were of great importance in providing for the transportation of goods and people between the Adriatic coast and the Po plain.

The area served by the Litoranea Veneta is important for its ecology, for the presence of archeological sites and for its architecture. As such the network is being developed to provide a means of transport attractive to tourists.

Adige
The Adige is the second-longest river in Italy, after the Po. It rises near the Reschen Pass in the Vinschgau in the province of South Tyrol, near the Italian border with Austria and Switzerland, and flows 410 kilometres (250 mi) through most of northeastern Italy to the Adriatic Sea.

The name of the river is of unknown origin. Nineteenth-century theories, such as a derivation from the Proto-Celtic *yt-ese 'the water', and alleged to be cognate with the River Tees in England (anciently Athesis, Teesa), have never been accepted by Celtic onomasts and are now completely obsolete.
Viable count
Viable count is a method used in cell culture to determine the number of living cells in a culture. This is different from other cell counting techniques  because it makes a distinction between live and dead cells.

Cell counting
Cell counting is any of various methods for the counting or similar quantification of cells in the life sciences, including medical diagnosis and treatment. It is an important subset of cytometry, with applications in research and clinical practice. For example, the complete blood count can help a physician to determine why a patient feels unwell and what to do to help. Cell counts within liquid media (such as blood, plasma, lymph, or laboratory rinsate) are usually expressed as a number of cells per unit of volume, thus expressing a concentration (for example, 5,000 cells per milliliter).

Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) was a neutrino observatory located 2100 m underground in Vale's Creighton Mine in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. The detector was designed to detect solar neutrinos through their interactions with a large tank of heavy water.

The detector was turned on in May 1999, and was turned off on 28 November 2006.  The SNO collaboration was active for several years after that analyzing the data taken.

The director of the experiment, Art McDonald, was co-awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2015 for the experiment's contribution to the discovery of neutrino oscillation.

The underground laboratory has been enlarged into a permanent facility and now operates multiple experiments as SNOLAB. The SNO equipment itself was being refurbished as of February 2017 for use in the SNO+ experiment.

Webcasting usually consists of providing non-interactive linear streams or events. Rights and licensing bodies offer specific "webcasting licenses" to those wishing to carry out Internet broadcasting using copyrighted material.
