Unreferenced date August 2009 Base richness in ecology is the level in water or soil of Base chemistry chemical base s, such as calcium or magnesium ion s. Many organism s are restricted to base rich or base poor environments. Chemical bases are alkali s, and so base rich environments are pH neutral or alkaline. Because base poor environments have few bases, they are dominated by environmental acid s usually organic acid s and so are pH acidic . However, the relationship between base richness and acidity is not a rigid one &ndash changes in the levels of acids such as Carbonic acid dissolved carbon dioxide may significantly change acidity without affecting base richness. Base rich terrestrial environments are characteristic of areas where the underlying rocks are limestone . Seawater is also base rich, so maritime and Ocean marine environments are themselves base rich. Base poor environments are characteristic of areas where the underlying rocks are sandstone or granite , or where the water is derived directly from rainfall ombrotrophic .

XML Base is a W3C recommendation World Wide Web Consortium recommended facility for defining base Uniform Resource Identifier URI s for parts of XML documents. XML Base recommendation was adopted on 2001 06 27. The attribute xml base may be inserted in XML documents to specify a base URI other than the base URI of the document or external entity. The value of this attribute is interpreted as a URI Reference as defined in RFC 3986 IETF RFC 3986 . It serves the function described in section 5.1.1 of RFC3986, establishing the base URI or IRI for resolving any relative references found within the effective scope of the xml base attribute. In namespace aware XML processors, the xml prefix is bound to the namespace name http www.w3.org XML 1998 namespace as described in Namespaces in XML XML Names .

In baseball , part of the infielder s job is to cover bases . That is, they stand next to a base in anticipation of receiving the ball thrown from another fielder, so that they may make a play on an opposing baserunner who is approaching that base. On a force play or appeal play , the fielder covering the base stands with one foot on that base. In general, the first baseman covers first base, the second baseman or shortstop covers second, the third baseman covers third, and the catcher covers home base. On balls to the first baseman, the pitcher or second baseman might cover instead. With baserunner s on first and second, sometimes the shortstop will cover third on a Bunt baseball bunt , known as the rotation play or wheelplay. Depending on the situation, however, various fielders can cover any base, sometimes an outfielder can even cover a base.

Clavius Base is a Colonization of the Moon lunar settlement in the fictional Space Odyssey universe created by Arthur C. Clarke . The base, located at Clavius crater , is featured in both the novel and film versions of 2001 A Space Odyssey . According to the novel, the base was finished in 1994 by United States Astronautical Engineering Corps. If necessary, the base can be self sustaining. As depicted on screen, Clavius Base features some surface features a landing pad and control tower, together with other ancillary support structures , but the vast majority of the base is located beneath the Lunar surface. The spacecraft sets down on a landing platform beneath a dome which opens as the spacecraft descends. The landing platform proves to be the platform of an enormous elevator, which lowers the spacecraft into a cavernous docking bay, illuminated in red. Most of the base has been built underground to protect it from micro meteoroid impacts and solar radiation.
