Computational Statistics in Climatology
ISBN: 9780195099997 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Scientific descriptions of the climate have traditionally been based on the study of average meteorological values taken from different positions around the world. In recent years however it has become apparent that these averages should be considered with other statistics that ultimately characterize spatial and temporal variability. This book is designed to meet that need. It is based on a course in computational statistics taught by the author that arose from a variety of projects on the design and development of software for the study of climate change, using statistics and methods of...

Windows Into the Earth: The Geologic Story of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks
ISBN: 9780195105971 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Millions of years ago, the North American continent was dragged over the world's largest continental hotspot, a huge column of hot and molten rock rising from the Earth's interior that traced a 50-mile wide, 500-mile-long path northeastward across Idaho. Generating cataclysmic volcanic eruptions and large earthquakes, the hotspot helped lift the Yellowstone Plateau to more than 7,000 feet and pushed the northern Rockies to new heights, forming unusually large glaciers to carve the landscape. It also created the jewel of the U.S. national park system: Yellowstone. Meanwhile, forces stretching...

ISBN: 9780195109900 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The vadose zone is the region between ground level and the upper limits of soil fully saturated with water. Hydrology in the zone is complex: nonlinear physical, chemical, and biological interactions all affect the transfer of heat, mass, and momentum between the atmosphere and the water table. This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to vadose zone hydrology, bringing together insights from soil science, hydrology, biology, chemistry, physics, and instrumentation design. The chapters present state-of-the-art research, focusing on new frontiers in theory, experiment, and management of...

Tectonic Boundary Conditions for Climate Reconstructions
ISBN: 9780195112450 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In recent years there has been a movement to break down old disciplinary boundaries in the geosciences to develop a more unified view of the earth as an integrated system, but efforts to integrate solid earth and climate studies have not progressed as rapidly as other areas. Responding to this deficiency, this volume provides an in-depth examination of climate modeling--an area which can benefit enormously from the interaction between solid earth geophysical studies and climate studies. Written by eminent figures from both disciplines, this volume focuses on the role of tectonic boundary...

The Benthic Boundary Layer: Transport Processes and Biogeochemistry
ISBN: 9780195118810 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The benthic boundary layer is the zone of water and sediment immediately adjacent to the bottom of a sea, lake, or river. This zone is of considerable interest to biologists, geochemists, sedimentologists, and engineers because of very strong gradients of energy, dissolved and solid chemical components, suspended matter, and the number of organisms that live there. It is, for example, the sink for anthropogenic substances and the home of microscopic plant life that provides the nutrients that determine fish populations--and ultimately the size of the fisheries. This book of original chapters...

Cirrus
ISBN: 9780195130720 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Cirrus clouds are high, thin, tropospheric clouds composed predominately of ice. In the last ten years, considerable work has shown that cirrus is widespread--more common than previously believed--and has a significant impact on climate and global change. As the next generation weather satellites are being designed, the impact of cirrus on remote sensing and the global energy budget must be recognized and accommodated. This book, the first to be devoted entirely to cirrus clouds, captures the state of knowledge of cirrus and serves as a practical handbook as well. Each chapter is based on an...

Spatial Evolutionary Modeling
ISBN: 9780195135688 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Evolutionary models (e.g., genetic algorithms, artificial life), explored in other fields for the past two decades, are now emerging as an important new tool in GIS for a number of reasons. First, they are highly appropriate for modeling geographic phenomena. Secondly, geographical problems are often spatially separate (broken down into local or regional problems) and evolutionary algorithms can exploit this structure. Finally, the ability to store, manipulate, and visualize spatial data has increased to the point that space-time-attribute databases can be easily handled.
