Rock Weathering
ISBN: 9781468417968 / Angielski / Miękka / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Soil science is perhaps one of the oldest practical sciences, having been of concern to man probably from the time he progressed from a strictly preda- tory life to one in which agriculture became important. In view of the anti- quity of concern with the subject, it is perhaps surprising that it can be approached from a fresh viewpoint, as is done in this book. Because soil science is an applied science, it is not surprising that the approach is usually descriptive, rather than imaginative. For agriculturalists and other land users, perhaps the most important part of soil science is the...

Vulnerability of Watersheds to Climate Change Assessed by Neural Network and Analytical Hierarchy Process
ISBN: 9789812873439 / Angielski / Miękka / 89 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The increase in GHG gases in the atmosphere due to expansions in industrial and vehicular concentration is attributed to warming of the climate world wide. The resultant change in climatic pattern can induce abnormalities in the hydrological cycle. As a result, the regular functionality of river watersheds will also be affected. This Brief highlights a new methodology to rank the watersheds in terms of its vulnerability to change in climate. This Brief introduces a Vulnerability Index which will be directly proportional to the climatic impacts of the watersheds. Analytical Hierarchy Process...

Arsenic and Fluoride Contamination: A Pakistan Perspective
ISBN: 9788132222972 / Angielski / Twarda / 147 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents an up-to-the-minute overview of arsenic and fluoride pollution of soil and groundwater in Pakistan. It includes the author's doctoral dissertation on Lahore as a case study and describes the mechanism of pollution on the basis of the findings in that area. The book highlights the concrete situation in Pakistan - including the severity of the problem, its health effects and the risks posed to the people living in affected areas by these two major pollutants- and points out essential research areas that call for immediate attention. As such, it draws attention to the need for...

Hygrothermal Risk on Building Heritage: A Methodology for a Risk Map
ISBN: 9783319191133 / Angielski / Miękka / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents a critical review of a criterion of risk, created to assess the flood risk to heritage buildings, and evaluates this criterion by applying it to the sample Portuguese heritage buildings. In a first approach, the total number of potential parameters is effectively reduced and the selected criteria are divided into two different groups: the monument's location in relation to a waterway, and the behaviour of its construction material in contact with water. Above all, the book discusses the importance of architectural heritage and argues for the need to safeguard it...

Water Resource Economics: Towards a Sustainable Use of Water for Irrigation in India
ISBN: 9788132224785 / Angielski / Twarda / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book uses resource economics costing approaches incorporating externalities to estimate the returns for the country s irrigation and demonstrates how underestimating the cost of water leads farmers to overestimate profits. The importance of the subject can be judged in light of the fact that India is the largest user of groundwater both for irrigation and for drinking purposes, pumping twice as much as the United States and six times as much as Europe.
Despite water s vital role in ensuring economic security for the nation and farmers alike by supporting more than 70% of food... This book uses resource economics costing approaches incorporating externalities to estimate the returns for the country s irrigation and demonstrates...
