The Soviet Union - Federation or Empire?
ISBN: 9781138107205 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Soviet Union is often characterised as nominally a federation, but really an empire, liable to break up when individual federal units, which were allegedly really subordinate colonial units, sought independence. This book questions this interpretation, revisiting the theory of federation, and discussing actual examples of federations such as the United States, arguing that many federal unions, including the United States, are really centralised polities. It also discusses the nature of empires, nations and how they relate to nation states and empires, and the right of secession,...

Groundwater Governance in the Indo-Gangetic and Yellow River Basins: Realities and Challenges
ISBN: 9781138113923 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. One of the key features of agricultural development in the last five decades has been intensive groundwater use in the Indo-Gangetic Basin (Pakistan, India, Nepal and Bangladesh) and in the Yellow River Basin (China). Groundwater irrigates almost 60% of the net irrigated area in South Asia and 70% in the north China plains. Groundwater use for agriculture is still increasing. Despite the growing significance of groundwater to agricultural growth, food security and rural livelihoods globally, and at the same time significant signs of limitations and constraints for further use, knowledge of...

Sediment Transport in Irrigation Canals: A New Approach
ISBN: 9781138475144 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Sediment transport in irrigation canals influences to a great extent the sustainability of an irrigation system. Unwanted erosion or deposition will not only increase maintenance costs, but may also lead to unfair, unreliable and unequitable distribution of irrigation water to the end users. Proper knowledge of the characteristics, including behaviour and transport of sediment will help to design irrigation systems, plan efficient and reliable water delivery schedules, to have a controlled deposition of sediments, to estimate and arrange maintenance activities, etc. The main aim of these...

Carbonate Sediments and Rocks Under the Microscope: A Colour Atlas
ISBN: 9781138430174 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. More than half of the world's petroleum is to be found in carbonate rocks, for example in the Middle East, the former USSR and in North America. These rocks show a bewildering diversity of grains and textures, due in part to the wealth of different fossil organisms which have contributed to carbonate sedimentation, and in part to a wide variety of diagenetic processes which can radically modify textures and obscure the depositional fabric.Careful petrographic study with a polarising microscope is a key element of any study of carbonate sediments, as a companion to field or core logging, and...

Spatial Analytical
ISBN: 9781138430617 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The ability to manipulate spatial data in different forms and to extract additional meaning from them is at the heart of GIS, yet genuine spatial analysis tools are rarely incorporated into commercial software, thus seriously limiting their usefulness. The future of GIS technology wil depend largely on the incorporation of more powerful analytical and modelling functions - and there is agreement within the GIS community of the urgent need to address these issues. This text attempts this task. It presents the latest information on incorporating spatial analysis tools into GIS, and includes...
