Overview: Presents advanced techniques of remediation of polluted water, soil and air.Details contaminant-induced antibiotic resistance and diseases.Reviews the latest analytical tools to monitor pollutantsEmerging contaminants are chemical and biological agents for which there is growing concern about their potential health and environmental effects. The threat lies in the fact that the sources, fate and toxicology of most of these compounds have not yet been studied. Emerging contaminants, therefore, include a large number of both recently discovered and well-known compounds such as rare ear

Overview: As we are moving ahead into the 21st century, our hunger for cost­ effective and environmentally friendly energy continues to grow. The Energy Information Administration of US has forecasted that only in the first two decades of the 21st century, our energy demand will increase by 60% compared to the levels at the end of the 20th century. Fossil fuels have been traditionally the major primary energy sources worldwide, and their role is expected to continue growing for the forecasted period, due to their inherent cost competitiveness compared to non-fossil fuel energy sources. However

This title is the ideal course companion, complementing main text books and lecture notes.

Overview: The urgent need to describe and to solve certain problems connected to extreme phenomena in various areas of applications has been of decisive influence on the vital development of extreme value theory. After the pioneering work of M. Frechet (1927) and of R.A. Fisher and L.R.C. Tippett (1928), who discovered the limiting distributions of extremes, the importance of mathematical concepts of extreme behavior in applications was impressively demonstrated by statisticians like E.J. Gumbel and W. Weibull. The predominant role of applied aspects in that early period may be highlighted by

Overview: Die Atomphysik in dem weiteren Sinne, in dem sie in diesem Buch dargestellt werden soll, ist die Lehre vom Aufbau der Materie aus den letzten Elementar­ teilchen sowie von deren Eigenschaften und Wirkungen; sie sucht die gesamte un­ geheure Mannigfaltigkeit der stofflichen Erscheinungen unserer Welt mittels mög­ lichst weniger Elementarteilchen, allgemeiner Grundgesetze und Naturkonstanten einheitlich zu verstehen. Diese Lehre von der "atomistischen" Struktur der Atom­ kerne, Atome, Moleküle und Kns1alle, d. h. der gesamten Materie, ist, obwohl ihre Anfänge in das vorige Jahrhundert

Split into two parts, the first discusses and compares the traditional models, such as spot- and forward-rate models, while the second concentrates on the more recently developed Market models. Unlike most of his competitors, th

Overview: Supports Egypt’s ambitious sustainable development strategy for 2030.Written by experts in the field.Appeals to environmental managers, scientists and policymakers.This volume investigates the challenges facing the Egyptian Northern coastal lakes, focusing on the impact of climate change, their biodiversity and sustainable management. Presenting up-to-date research, it covers the following topics: climate change and water quality modeling and their impacts on the sustainability of the lakes; the economic role of the lakes; the use of remote sensing in monitoring; and the biodiversity

Overview: Increases the awareness that environmental policy has social policy type outcomes and is of direct relevance to social policy.Lays a foundation for reorganizing and merging social and environmental po​ ​This book argues that social and environmental policy should be synthetically treated as one and the same field, that both are but two aspects of the same coin – if sustainability is the goal. Such a paradigm shift is indicated, important, and timely to effectively move towards sustainability. This book is the first to take this approach and to give examples for it. Not to synthetical

Overview: The only book to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art overview of evolving connectionist systems.Includes supplementary material: Many methods and models have been proposed for solving difficult problems such as prediction, planning and knowledge discovery in application areas such as bioinformatics, speech and image analysis. Most, however, are designed to deal with static processes which will not change over time. Some processes - such as speech, biological information and brain signals - are not static, however, and in these cases different models need to be used which can tr
