Britainâs response was swift. The following spring, Parliament passed four acts known collectively, by the British, as the âCoercive Acts.â Colonists, however, referred to them as the âIntolerable Acts.â First, the Boston Port Act shut down the harbor and cut off all trade to and from the city.
The bulk density often is the bulk density of the powder âas pouredâ or as passively filled into a measuring vessel. The tapped density is a limiting density attained after âtapping down,â usually in a device that lifts and drops a volumetric measuring cylinder containing the powder a fixed distance.
water-filled pore space. Soil respiration was much lower at a bulk density of 1.8 Mg/m. 3 . compared to 1.4 Mg/m. 3, with a 65% reduction of microbial activity at 60% water-filled pore space. This indicates that soil bulk density affects soil microbial activity in ways other than just alteration of soil moisture levels.
