Die Biologie Der Zehn Gebote Und Die Natur Des Menschen: Wissen Und Glauben Im Widerstreit
ISBN: 9783642417580 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die Zehn Gebote markieren soziale Konfliktstellen bei Tieren wie Menschen, an denen der einzelne sich Vorteile auf Kosten der anderen verschaffen kann. Biologen konnen zeigen, warum sich von Natur her keine Lebensordnung einstellt, die das verhindert, und warum entsprechende ethische Normen erst fur den Menschen geboten und verpflichtend sind. Zwar spiegeln sich in unserer Kultur und in unseren Gesetzen die Zehn Gebote wider, sie werden aber, wie in der gesamten belebten Schopfung, regelmassig ubertreten. Die biologisch-naturliche Interpretation dieses Zustandes ist von der...

The Beauty of Divine Solitude are the stories of a young man, creative, imaginative and curious about the wonders of life, reflections upon romance, natural Providences that we miss on our day to day adventures and a loving God who has blessed him beyond measures. To whom much is given much is required and such insight must be released. Love is what he seemed to never be able to find, and like so each particular dead end has become a story transfigured in his mind. One of everyone's goals in life is to find that significant other, the one that completely encapsulates the idea of love, but how...

Sasquatch Rising 2013: Dead Giants Tell No Tales: How DNA Breakthroughs and Backyard Visits Reveal the Greatest Story of Our Time
ISBN: 9781466360563 / Angielski / Miękka / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dr. Melba Ketchum's DNA study has found that Sasquatch arose long ago through crossbreeding between female Homo sapiens and males of another primate species, now extinct. Though the latter remains unidentified, it was almost certainly a fellow member of our Homo family tree. The uncanny humanness of Sasquatch has never been in doubt at "habituation sites," places with which they have become familiar, returning regularly to homes and properties, often for years on end. Throughout North America, certain people have interacted with these curious, wily visitors and-in the humane, inquisitive...

Pilot Testing a Pika Monitoring Protocol in Glacier National Park: Natural Resource Technical Report NPS/UCBN/NRTR-2013/667
ISBN: 9781492757818 / Angielski / Miękka / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The purpose of this project was to pilot test a peer-reviewed, long-term pika monitoring protocol for the American pika (Ochotona princeps) in Glacier National Park. The pika is a climate-sensitive species and this effort provided new information on the distribution, survey methodologies, and habitat associations of the species in the park. In particular, this project established long-term monitoring sites to estimate the proportion of sample sites occupied by pikas and assessed detectability of pika using both direct and indirect evidence of pika presence (via visuals, aurals, scat, and...

Introduction of Wave-Set-Up Effects and Mass Flux to the Sea, Lake, and Overland Surges from Hurricanes Model
ISBN: 9781495992629 / Angielski / Miękka / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hurricanes wreak havoc on the lives and infrastructure of coastal communities. Storm surge, a local rise in sea elevations, is perhaps the most devastating element of these tropical cyclones. Storm surge depends on the tidal stage, barometric pressure, Coriolis effect, wind stress, and wave forcing, as well as the local bathymetry. In the past, many storm surge numerical models, such as Sea, Lake, and Overland Surges from Hurricanes (SLOSH) (JELESNIANSKI et al, 1992), neglect wave forcing components to conserve computational efficiency. However, numerous situations necessitate the inclusion...

Temporal Chemical Data for Sediment, Water, and Biological Samples from the Lava Cap Mine Superfund Site, Nevada County, California?2006?2008
ISBN: 9781496046369 / Angielski / Miękka / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Lava Cap Mine is located about 6 km east of the city of Grass Valley, Nevada County, California, at an elevation of about 900 m (fig. 1). Gold was hosted in quartz-carbonate veins typical of the Sierran Gold Belt, but the gold grain size was smaller and the abundance of sulfide minerals higher than in typical deposits. The vein system was discovered in 1860, but production was sporadic until the 1930s when two smaller operations on the site were consolidated, a flotation mill was built, and a 100- foot deep adit was driven to facilitate drainage and removal of water from the mine...

Riparian Vegetation Response to the March 2008 Short- Duration, High-Flow Experiment?Implications of Timing and Frequency of Flood Disturbance on Nonn
ISBN: 9781496046505 / Angielski / Miękka / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Riparian plant communities exhibit various levels of diversity and richness. These communities are affected by flooding and are vulnerable to colonization by nonnative species. Since 1996, a series of three high-flow experiments (HFE), or water releases designed to mimic natural seasonal flooding, have been conducted at Glen Canyon Dam, Ariz., primarily to determine the effectiveness of using high flows to conserve sediment, a limited resource. These experiments also provide opportunities to examine the susceptibility of riparian plant communities to nonnative species invasions. The third and...

2008 High-Flow Experiment at Glen Canyon Dam? Morphologic Response of Eddy-Deposited Sandbars and Associated Aquatic Backwater Habitats along the Colo
ISBN: 9781496057815 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The March 2008 high-flow experiment (HFE) at Glen Canyon Dam resulted in sandbar deposition and sandbar reshaping such that the area and volume of associated backwater aquatic habitat in Grand Canyon National Park was greater following the HFE. Analysis of backwater habitat area and volume for 116 locations at 86 study sites, comparing one month before and one month after the HFE, shows that total habitat area increased by 30 percent to as much as a factor of 3 and that volume increased by 80 percent to as much as a factor of 15. These changes resulted from an increase in the area and...

Effects of High-Flow Experiments from Glen Canyon Dam on Abundance, Growth, and Survival Rates of Early Life Stages of Rainbow Trout in the Lees Ferry
ISBN: 9781496057860 / Angielski / Miękka / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. High-flow experiments (HFEs) from Glen Canyon Dam are primarily intended to conserve fine sediment and improve habitat conditions for native fish in the Colorado River as it flows through Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona. These experimental flows also have the potential to affect the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) population in the Lees Ferry tailwater reach immediately below the dam, which supports a highly valued recreational fishery and likely influences the abundance of rainbow trout in Grand Canyon. Understanding how flow regimes affect the survival and growth of juvenile rainbow...
