ISBN: 9789400788985 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. In this volume, an improved Integrated Assessment methodology is used to analyze climate change impacts on agriculture, water resources, unmanaged ecosystems, irrigation, and land use in the United States and the economic implications of these impacts. This book contains a series of papers documenting the methods, models, analysis, and results of this integrated assessment for a wide-ranging set of scenarios describing future climate change. Innovations described include the integration of water resource and agricultural modeling and the refinement of an agriculture and land-use...

Storing Carbon in Agricultural Soils: A Multi-Purpose Environmental Strategy
ISBN: 9789048157594 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Soil carbon sequestration can play a strategic role in controlling the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere and thereby help mitigate climatic change. There are scientific opportunities to increase the capacity of soils to store carbon and remove it from circulation for longer periods of time. The vast areas of degraded and desertified lands throughout the world offer great potential for the sequestration of very large quantities of carbon. If credits are to be bought and sold for carbon storage, quick and inexpensive instruments and methods will be needed to monitor and verify that...

Towards an Integrated Impact Assessment of Climate Change: The Mink Study
ISBN: 9789401049290 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 173 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. General circulation models state that the central United States (and other mid-latitude continental regions) will become warmer and drier as the result of greenhouse warming. On this premise the dustbowl period of the 1930s was selected as an analogue of climate change and its weather records imposed on the Missouri--Iowa--Kansas region to assess how current agriculture, forestry, water resources and energy and the entire regional economy would be affected. The same climate was also imposed on a MINK region forty years into the future, by which time climate change may actually be felt, to...

Protecting the Best Men: An Interpretive History of the Law of Libel
ISBN: 9780807842904 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. From the trial of John Peter Zenger in the eighteenth century to the recent libel cases of William Westmoreland and Ariel Sharon, political defamation cases have attracted considerable attention. As Norman Rosenberg shows, cases like these raise fundamental questions about how much criticism of public leaders a supposedly open, liberal society will permit.
Drawing upon a wide variety of historical sources, Protecting the Best Men argues that there exists no natural, evolutionary history of free speech. It also challenges interpretations that rest upon discovering an "original...

A Biomass Future for the North American Great Plains: Toward Sustainable Land Use and Mitigation of Greenhouse Warming
ISBN: 9781402056000 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. WHY THIS BOOK? This book is an exploration of the possibility that a significant portion of the North American Great Plains (NAGP), now primarily in rangeland, corn, soybean, and small-grain production, can be converted to the production of biomass-energy crops. Biomass can be used as a substitute for some of the fossil fuels the use of which is now increasing the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO ) 2 and contributing to global warming and climatic change. Such a land use change to biomass could lead not only to a global good but also to specific economic and environmental...
