Overview: This series presents studies that have used the paradigm of landscape ecology. Other approaches, both to landscape and landscape ecology are common, but in the last decade landscape ecology has become distinct from its predecessors and its contemporaries. Landscape ecology addresses the relationships among spatial patterns, temporal patterns and ecological processes. The effect of spatial configurations on ecological processes is fundamental. When human activity is an important variable affecting those relationships, landscape ecology includes it. Spatial and temporal scales are as l

Overview: Der Aufbau starker Marken ist langwierig und kostenintensiv. Insbesondere in Anbetracht begrenzter Ressourcen kann das Markencontrolling durch die Gewährleistung von Effizienz und Effektivität dabei einen bedeutsamen Beitrag für eine erfolgreiche Markenführung leisten. Um dieser Aufgabe gerecht zu werden, sind umfangreiche Kenntnisse hinsichtlich der Markenführung, des Markenführungsprozesses sowie typischer Problemfelder der Markenführung erforderlich. Von diesen Überlegungen ausgehend bestimmt Stephan Braun Zielsetzung sowie Aufgaben eines Markencontrollings als Rationalitätssicher

Overview: The origin of this book can be traced to a Workshop held at the University of Cambridge in December 1985 under the auspices of the Wolfson Group for Studies of Fluid Flow and Mixing in Industrial Processes. This Group was es­ tablished at the University of Cambridge in January 1983 and includes mem­ bers from the Departments of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, Engineering and Chemical Engineering. As its name suggests, the objective of the Group is to undertake, co"ordinate and stimulate research in various aspects of fluid flow and mixing in industrial processes. However

Overview: Provides insight into Slovenian military families that will be of interest to scholars of military family and well-being.Authored by a multidisciplinary team of researchers including sociologists, psyThis book examines military families‘ well-being and health outcomes by providing a critical theoretical perspective on their position and the risks and challenges affecting them. Authors explore the tension between demands made by two greedy institutions—the military and the family—and how the well-being of families is negotiated between the two. Uniquely, the book employs an integrativ

Overview: In a single volume, the authors bring together a review of current biological understanding of planktonic foraminifera and apply it to developments in sedimentology. With the growing interest in the shells of this class of protozoa as indicators of the history of the earth, revealed through the sedimentary record, a comprehensive analysis of the biology of contemporary foraminifera has become necessary. Main topics covered include Taxonomy, Collecting and Culture Methods, Cellular Ultrastructure, Host and Symbiont Relationships, Trophic Activity and Nutrition, Reproduction, Shell Ont

Overview: This volume constitutes the papers of several workshops which were held in conjunction with the International Workshops of ECML PKDD 2022 on Machine Learning and Principles and Practice of Knowledge Discovery in Databases, ECML PKDD 2022, held in Grenoble, France, during September 19–23, 2022. .The 73 revised full papers and 6 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 143 submissions. ECML PKDD 2022 presents the following five workshops:.Workshop on Data Science for Social Good (SoGood 2022).Workshop on New Frontiers in Mining Complex Patterns (NFM

Overview: Empirische Forschung ist heutzutage ohne die Verwendung von Schlußweisen der Statistik nicht mehr denkbar. Dementsprechend existiert eine umfangreiche statistische Lehrbuchliteratur, die sich jedoch bis auf wenige Ausnahmen in eine der folgenden vier Gruppen einordnen läßt: 1) Einführende Lehrbücher auf mathematisch elementarem Niveau, 2) Bücher, die sich an den mathematisch weniger geschulten Anwender richten und in denen Verfahren der Statistik lediglich beschrieben bzw. aus der Sicht des Praktikers kommentiert werden, 3) Monographien über engbegrenzte Spezialgebiete, 4) Werke, die

Overview: Few would dispute the truth of the statement `People areDifferent‘, but there is much controversy over .why.. This bookauthoritatively explains the methods used to understand humanvariation, and extends them far beyond the primary `nature or nurture‘question. After chapters on basic statistics, biometrical genetics,matrix algebra and path analysis, there is a state-of-the-art accountof how to fit genetic models using the LISREL package. .The authors explain not only the assumptions of the twin method, buthow to test them. The elementary model is expanded to cover sexlimitation, sibli

Overview: Elaborates on all the different kinds of microbial communication systems.Describes the role of noise in the context of microbial communication.Provides insights into the mathematical models, experimen.This book introduces the concept of bacterial communication systems from a mathematical modeling point of view. It sheds light on the research undertaken in the last three decades, and the mathematical models that have been proposed to understand the underlying mechanism of such systems. These communication systems are related to quorum sensing mechanisms and quorum sensing regulated pr

Overview: This volume reports the results of a symposium held in Heidelberg during the International Sedimentological Congress in late August and early September, 1971. The symposium, co­ sponsored by the International Association for Mathematical Geology, entertained the subject, "Mathematical Models of Sedimentary Processes. " The subject is most appropriate because sedimentologists have long been concerned with processes and mechanisms of sedi­ ment dispersal. Much effort has gone into building physical models such as flumes, stream tables, wave tanks, wind tunnels, etc. , to help understan
