Harvey A: The Geomorphology Of French
Landscapes

The Geomorphology Of French Landscapes

This reference work&nbsp;gathers all of the latest technologies, information, definitions and explanations of spacecraft life support systems, while providing in-depth coverage of the current knowledge of the business of keeping astronauts alive during their missions. It is intended that this MRW be the go-to reference work not only for aerospace engineers, but also for graduate and undergraduate aerospace engineers and space scientists. The area of spacecraft life support is&nbsp;comprised of&nbsp;dozens of specialties and sub-specialties within the fields of engineering, biophysics, and medicine. As space agencies around the world pursue cutting-edge life support technologies, much more information and data is accumulated.&nbsp;When humans move out into the solar system to stay for long durations, the most immediate challenge will be the provision of reliable and robust life support systems in locations devoid of food, air, and water. These life support systems must provide these commodities in each phase of spaceflight, including intra-vehicular activity (IVA) and extra-vehicular activity (EVA). Systems supporting human life must also fulfill myriad requirements: exceptional reliability in the space environment, allowing maintenance and component replacement in space; reduced resupply mass of consumables and spares; the ability to utilize local planetary&nbsp;resources for self sufficiency; and minimized mass power and volume requirements. &nbsp;These requirements will assume ever greater importance as bolder missions are envisioned and more sophisticated life support systems are required. For example, the next decade could see human missions to Mars and a return to the Moon. In the not-so-distant future, there is the prospect of Mars One and the creation of a permanent extraterrestrial colony. It may appear that a suitable environment can be created simply by reproducing terrestrial environmental conditions within a vehicle. In reality, it is first necessary to define the environmental characteristics humans require and match these requirements with the myriad design constraints. This is no easy task, because implementing these environmental parameters within a spacecraft can be challenging, while balancing the various requirements and constraints can test the abilities of even the most gifted aerospace engineer. Yet it is a crucial field of study and the experts contributing to this volume are on the very front lines.

This book assesses the importance of the cultural dimensions of water management, which differ from one region of the world to another, from humid Southeast Asia to arid parts of the Middle East and Africa. Water is a vital resource, and water circulation brings invaluable benefits in many ways. Too much or too little water can also create disasters, however, including flooding and drought. Water is considered "too much to control" in humid areas and "too little to survive" in arid regions. There is a great storehouse of traditional and scientific knowledge on water management as an expression of culture in both arid and humid areas. The qanat, for example, is used in some arid regions to control the transport of water underground. In humid areas, people have long existed under the threat of heavy flooding by drawing upon traditional knowledge for survival. Once-effective water management is threatened, however, by climate change such as global warming and by the globalization and urbanization of society. Adaptive water management is now imperative as climate and society undergo changes. Not only political and institutional solutions are called for. As well, adaptations of traditional methods must be introduced into modern systems of water management. This book provides valuable guidance on how that synthesis can be achieved.

Geospatial Information and Services for Climate Resilient Disaster Management explores how cutting-edge technology can shape our response to climate-related disasters. Leading experts uncover the indispensable role that geospatial information and services can play in disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. The book opens with an overview of climate resilient disaster management and the application of geospatial technology. The chapters next undertake a thorough examination of early warning systems, risk assessment, vulnerability mapping, resource allocation, and disaster response. Following from those vital tools and applications, the editors then evaluate climate adaptation planning and community engagement in the light of geospatial technology. The book wraps up with real-world case studies and success stories along with a discussion of current challenges and future trends. Readers concerned with the rising connections between natural disaster and climate change will be inspired by this inside view of the latest innovations in geospatial information and services.

This book identifies air pollution in megacity areas as a serious environmental issue that calls for prompt countermeasures. The first book to compare air pollution in Mexican megacities to those in Japan, it examines air pollution trends for the past 50 years, mainly focusing on Mexico and Japan, but also including data from the US and China. It consists of 3 sections, discussing 1) air pollutants and formation mechanisms; 2) air pollution trends and contributing factors; and 3) Characteristics of air pollution in three Mexican Megacity Areas - Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey. It also proposes co-beneficial countermeasure scenarios that can effectively improve regional and global atmospheric environmental conditions. Helping readers to understand air pollution formation mechanisms and countermeasure scenarios that are effective at both regional and global scales, the book appeals to researchers and graduate students in the field of atmospheric environmental science, as well as undergraduate science, engineering and social sciences students, and environmental administrative officers and anyone interested in our atmospheric environment.

An Introduction

Environmental Management

Fossils At A Glance is written for students taking an introductory level course in paleontology. Short chapters introduce the main topics in the modern study of fossils. The most important fossil groups are discussed, from microfossils through invertebrates to vertebrates and plants, followed by a brief narrative of life on Earth.&nbsp;Diagrams are central to the book and allow the reader to see most of the important data "at a glance". Each topic covers two pages and provides a self-contained suite of information or a starting point for future study. &nbsp; What's new in the 3rd edition? The new edition boasts full colour photographs, diagrams and illustrations for the first time. A new lead author, Tom Challands, brings a new perspective to the book. All sections have been completely revised and updated. A companion website will provide online resources for enhanced teaching and learning, including experiments and activities, including: &nbsp; -MicroCT dataset and introduction to analysing microCT fossil data using open source, freely available software (ImageJ and Drishti). &nbsp; -Simple acid preparation of fossils in carbonate rocks. &nbsp; -Character matrix for phylogenetic analysis and an introduction to phylogenetic analysis using open source and freely available software. For parsimony - TNT, for Bayesian analysis, MrBayes. &nbsp; - Videos of dissection of mollusc, bivalve, fish to illustrate anatomy
