Abstract

"Carbon publishes papers that deal with original research on the chemistry, physics and technology of carbonaceous solids consisting essentially of aromatically or tetrahedrally bonded carbon atoms and the materials produced from them. These materials range through chars, activated and pyrolytic carbons (including carbon blacks and soot), graphites, diamond, carbon nanotubes, and the fullerenes."

Abstract

Wiskundigen hebben een onuitputtelijke verbeelding. Of het nu de meetkunde of de getallenleer betreft, telkens komen er nieuwe ideeën op en worden er verborgen juweeltjes onthuld. Dat leidt tot leuke, verrassende en leerzame uitvindingen.In dit boek vind je paradoxale figuren, klassieke spellen zoals tangram en de Rubiks kubus, alledaagse problemen zoals pizza's snijden en schilderijen ophangen, simpele of juist lastige raadsels met priemgetallen en getallenrijen, en ook gecodeerde afbeeldingen waarin gezichten en dieren verstopt zitten. Getallenverzamelaars zullen je versteld doen staan met hun mysterieuze getallenboeken. Onderzoekers en amateurwiskundigen creëren met aanstekelijk enthousiasme nieuwe combinaties, spellen en afbeeldingen, waarvan de eenvoud de subtiliteit en de schoonheid voor iedereen te zien is.Dit boek neemt je mee in een wereld die spelenderwijs telkens opnieuw wordt uitgevonden, een wereld waarin vindingrijke beroepswiskundigen en liefhebbers bijdragen leveren aan de ontwikkelingen in wat de grote Duitse wiskundige Carl Friedrich Gauss 'de koningen der wetenschappen' noemde.

Abstract

Coral reefs have shaped the surface of our planet far more than has any other ecosystem. They are dynamic systems, producing limestone at the rate of 400-2,000 tons per hectare per year, and influencing the chemical balance of the world's oceans. Coral reefs have been around since before the prairies or other ecosystems of flowering plants existed, yet they vanish about a million years before other groups of organisms each time there is a global mass extinction. They return after each catastrophe, however, following a long period of absence. Although coral reefs are the most productive communities in the sea, the fisheries of coral reefs are among the most vulnerable to overexploitation. Despite having the power to create the most massive structures in the world made by living creatures (including man), the thin veneer of living tissue of coral reef is particularly sensitive to natural disturbances and effects of human activities. Coral reefs are the first to go during periods of climate change, but they have always come back. This combination of attributes, creative power and fragility, resilience and sensitivity, makes management of coral-reef systems a challenge to science. Over 70% of the coral reefs in the Caribbean and Asian waters have been degraded, and perhaps a third of the 400 species of corals in Japanese waters are in danger of local extinction unless effective coastal management practices are established. This book presents what is known about factors that shift the balance between accretion and erosion, recruitment and mortality, stony corals and filamentous algae, recovery and degradation--the life and death of coral reefs. Insight into the factors controlling the direction of these processes is essential for appropriate management decisions.

Abstract

Encompassing a broad range of history -- from the Greek and Roman eras to the Salem witch trials and the Dust Bowl of the early 20th century, leading scholars from the United States, Canada, and Great Britain analyze history with the tools of GIS. Through the use of modern GIS technology the past is revealed in new ways, in re-creating Civil War battlefields, by bringing ancient landscapes back to life, and in re-examining long-held assumptions about historical events. Combining a deep appreciation of the strengths of traditional history with the technology of GIS, this book provides a new perspective for historical researchers and GIS experts.

Abstract

Internet-based surveys, although still in their infancy, are becoming increasingly popular because they are believed to be faster, better, cheaper and easier to conduct than surveys using traditional methods. This text examines the pros and cons of Internet-based surveys.
