Overview: .Seasonal Snowpacks. examines the processes which control the chemistry of seasonal snowcover and provides detailed information on the biogeographical distribution of snow (e.g. urban, alpine snowpacks), snow composition (e.g. micropollutants, stable isotopes) or the physical and biological processes which influence the chemical changes in snow (e.g. wind, microbiological activity). The fluxes of chemicals at the snow-atmosphere and snow-soil interfaces are examined, as are processes which modify composition within the snowcover. It is the first book in which the reader will find a c

Overview: Most up-to-date reference on sulfur assimilation in plants.Includes supplementary material: .Sulfur is one of the four major essential elements necessary for the plant life cycle. Its assimilation in higher plants and its reduction in metabolically important sulfur compounds are crucial factors determining plant growth and vigor and resistance to stresses. The range of biological compounds that contain sulfur is wide. The information on sulfur assimilation can be exploited in tailoring for efficient sulfur utilization, and in the applied approaches for the sustenance of agricultural

Overview: Presents an early perspective on Theresa May‘s premiership.Uses statecraft as a theoretical framework.Feeds into political debates concerning the implementation of Brexit, foreign policy, and Conserva.This book examines the statecraft of former UK Prime Minister, Theresa May as a means of deconstructing her leadership of the United Kingdom. Alongside the inescapable issue of Brexit that dominated her Premiership, it takes a wider view of her record in government by looking at how and why she stood for the leadership of the Conservative Party; scrutinizes her approach to economic, soc

Overview: Die vorliegende Einführung in die Stochastik, die sich vorwiegend an Studierende der Informatik richtet, geht in ihrer Konzeption im wesentlichen von den folgenden drei Gesichtspunkten aus: 1. Die Anwendung soll im Vordergrund stehen. Der Leser soll in die Lage versetzt werden, bei konkreten Vorgängen mit Zufallseinfluß die wesentlichen Aspekte zu erkennen, ein geeignetes Modell zu finden und daraus Prognosen und gegebenenfalls Entscheidungshilfen abzuleiten. 2. Es sollen interessante und aktuelle Anwendungsbereiche einbezogen werden, die sonst in einführenden Lehrbüchern meist nicht

Overview: Will be of considerable value as a secondary text for universities currently offering courses in nanotechnology.Constitutes a valuable source of information on nanostructured materials for those interEven though there is no generally accepted definition of nanotechnologies to be defined as distinct discipline there is an emerging consensus that their advent and development is a growing in importance factor of the contemporary and future technological civilization. One of these most fundamental issues we are confronted with is the compatibility with life itself. From single cell organ

Overview: The purpose of this book is to expose undergraduate students to the use of applied mathematics and physical argument as a basis for developing an understanding of the response characteristics, from a systems viewpoint, of a broad class of dynamic physical processes. This book was developed for use in the course ECE 355, Dynamic Systems and Modeling, in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. The course ECE 355 has been elected primarily by junior and senior level students in computer engineering or in electrical engineering. Occ

Amiel Kornel puts a persuasive case for an alternative theory that while grounded in the natu

Overview: This volume is intended to cover research in the field of muscle morphology since publication of the previous edition by Haggquist in 1956. The development of new techniques, coupled with an intensified interest in muscle, has resulted in a vast literature which no single person could review, especially within the limitations of one volume. When I accepted the flattering offer to write a new edition, I quickly abandoned any hope of a comprehensive review. Instead, I tried to consider, within my limits, those lines of research which I believe to be important for the understanding of m

Overview: One of the main problems in control theory is the stabilization problem consisting of finding a feedback control law ensuring stability; when the linear approximation is considered, the nat­ ural problem is stabilization of a linear system by linear state feedback or by using a linear dynamic controller. This prob­ lem was intensively studied during the last decades and many important results have been obtained. The present monograph is based mainly on results obtained by the authors. It focuses on stabilization of systems with slow and fast motions, on stabilization procedures that

Yet in spite of the apparent simplicity of approach, none of these books has used the functional analytic method of presenting semimartingales and stochastic integration. Thus a 2nd edition seems worthwhile and timely, though it is no longer appropr
