This third edition of Designing Tall Buildings is an enhanced and accessible reference that guides the reader through the fundamental principles of designing high-rise buildings.This new edition includes four new chapters, including initial concepts for tall building design, techniques for optimization, considerations for carbon and the use of alternative materials such as timber. The third edition also includes 300 additional illustrations, and current code requirements and equations. Each chapter focuses on a theme central to tall-building design, giving a comprehensive overview of the related architectural and structural engineering concepts. Author Mark Sarkisian, PE, SE, NAE, LEED, provides clear definitions of technical terms and important equations, gradually developing the reader's knowledge. Projects drawn from SOM's vast portfolio of built high-rises, many of which Sarkisian engineered, demonstrate these concepts. The book considers the influence of particular site geology, wind conditions, and seismicity. With this contextual knowledge, the reader can develop structural systems best suited for a tower that are not only safe, but constructible and economical. Sarkisian specifically addresses the influence of nature in design, urging the integration of structure and architecture for building of superior performance, sustainability, and aesthetic excellence.This third edition is a must-have reference for students and designers.

Marine Microbial Products: Applications and Opportunities delves into the extensive and highly diverse world of marine microbes, an assemblage of organisms that contain a broad array of bioactive chemicals. Often unique due to the extreme environmental conditions in which they are synthesized, these chemicals present opportunities for innovations in human health, environmental sustainability, and technological progress. Readers will gain valuable insights into the biodiversity of marine microbes, characterization of their bioactive chemicals, and opportunities for innovation and sustainable development across multiple sectors. Written and edited by a diverse team of environmental microbiologists, this book is systematically structured to provide readers with a foundational understanding of marine microbial taxa, the products that may be synthesized from these organisms, technological innovations, and future directions of research. Chapters collate the most current research in healthcare, sustainable industry, and commercial production to provide readers with the latest information on antibiotics, antivirals, anticancer therapeutics, immunosuppresive chemicals, bioremediation, food processing, biofertilizers, biopesticides, cosmetics, pigments, probiotics, and functional foods. Given the interdisciplinary nature of this growing area of research, Marine Microbial Products: Applications and Opportunities is structured for accessibility to academic and professional audiences spanning a variety of sectors. It is an indispensable resource for students, professors, researchers, and industry professionals in biology, biotechnology, sustainable development, food and healthcare sciences, and adjacent industries.

Managing Disaster Induced Displacement in the Global South provides a crucial examination of the rising challenge of displacement caused by natural disasters-a consequence increasingly felt in the world's most vulnerable regions. This timely volume delves into the complex interplay of climate change, environmental degradation, and socio-economic factors that drive displacement, offering a comprehensive look at how communities, governments, and international organizations can respond effectively. Drawing on an array of case studies from across the Global South, the book presents innovative strategies and policies that have been employed to manage the risks and realities of displacement. The book explores themes of resilience, adaptation, and the often-overlooked human rights issues that arise during such crises. It highlights the complexity of the issue by examining the multifaceted causes and consequences of disaster-induced displacement, shedding light on the interconnected roles of climate change, environmental degradation, and socio-economic vulnerabilities. It brings knowledge together in a single resource, compiling recent research, case studies, and best practices from various contexts within the Global South to provide a comprehensive guide that can inform policy, practice, and research. Through detailed analysis and presentation of innovative solutions and policy frameworks that have shown promise, the book guides policymakers, community leaders, and international organizations toward adopting more holistic and proactive approaches to managing displacement. Written by leading experts in disaster management, human rights, and environmental policy, this book is an indispensable resource for policymakers, scholars, and activists seeking informed and practical paths forward in the face of one of the most pressing global challenges of our time.

Was machen Kirchen mit Menschen und Menschen in Kirchen? In welche Verbindung treten sie mit den in diesen Räumen verteilten Dingen? Und was erfahren wir daraus über Religion in der Gegenwart? Ausgehend von Feldbesuchen in Hamburger Kirchenräumen erschließen&nbsp;die Beiträger*innen aus Religionswissenschaft, Religionspädagogik und Praktischer Theologie das Wechselverhältnis von Dingen, Räumen und Menschen.&nbsp;Sie dokumentieren ethnographisch und fotodokumentarisch erschlossene Praktiken und Konstellationen, erkunden die Beobachtungen praxeologisch sowie im Sinne eines neuen Materialismus und ziehen Schlussfolgerungen für den Religionsdiskurs und Fachdebatten.

Sustainable Cropping Systems Under Changing Climate explores the intersection of agricultural practices, climate change, and crop production. The book provides crucial insights into how agricultural researchers and practitioners can navigate the challenges of maintaining crop productivity within diverse cropping systems, especially under varying climate scenarios. It emphasizes the real-world applications of these insights and offers strategies to adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change on agriculture. This comprehensive work discusses the impacts of changing climate conditions on diverse cropping practices, identifies challenges, and proposes effective mitigation strategies. It aims to develop resilient, adaptive cropping systems to ensure food security for a growing global population.

Statistics in Environmental Monitoring and Assessment details how statistics plays an essential role in every step of an environmental monitoring and assessment program, from the sampling design to the data management, and data analysis methods to extract meaningful information for environmental quality management.Large temporal and spatial variations of the environmental variables present a great challenge for producing a representative characterization of the status of any given environmental media, water, air, biota, or solid. This book explains these issues in an easy-to-understand manner and illustrates using actual applications in real-life case studies, each of which comes with a clear explanation for every related fundamental concept and methodology that details the statistical methods used in the analysis and considerations taken when using a particular method.Primarily intended for graduate students in environmental sciences who wish to use statistics as a research tool, it will also benefit researchers who are interested in applications of statistical methods for designing environmental monitoring programs and analysis of environmental data to assess the status of various environmental matrices. This book is organised in three parts with Part I providing a review of the basics of statistics, Part II focusing on sampling designs, and Part III focusing on applications of statistical methods for data analysis.
