Containing six sections, a comprehensive glossary, a Web site guide, and an index, Biology is an ideal learning tool for students and teachers of science. Full-colour diagrams,...

Theory of the Earth

Stanford University Press, 2021

We need a new philosophy of the earth. Geological time used to refer to slow and gradual processes, but today we are watching land sink into the sea and forests transform into deserts. We can even see the creation of new geological strata made of plastic, chicken bones, and other waste that could remain in the fossil record for millennia or...

Image Analysis, Sediments and Paleoenvironments (Developments in Paleoenvironmental Research)

Springer, 2005

Image analysis is concerned with the extraction of quantitative information from images
captured in digital form (Fortey 1995). Visual information has always played an important
role in the Geosciences — indeed, many disciplines rely heavily on the content of
images, whether they are sketches drawn in the field, or descriptions...

Handbook of Sensor Networks: Compact Wireless and Wired Sensing Systems

CRC Press, 2004

As the field of communications networks continues to evolve, a very interesting and challenging area — wireless sensor networks — is rapidly coming of age. A wireless sensor network consists of a large number of sensor nodes that may be randomly and densely deployed. Sensor nodes are small electronic components capable of sensing many...

Introduction to Focused Ion Beams: Instrumentation, Theory, Techniques and Practice

Springer, 2004

The focused ion beam (FIB) instrument has experienced an intensive period of maturation since its inception. Numerous new techniques and applications have been brought to fruition by the tireless efforts of some very innovative scientists with the foresight to recognize the potential of this upstart apparatus. Over the past few years, the FIB has...

Introducing ASP.NET 2.0 (Pro Developer)

Microsoft Press, 2004

What’s a Web application? Basically, it’s a set of publicly accessible pages
bound to a well-known URL. No matter which direction Web-related technologies
take in the future, this basic fact will never change. The reason is the
underlying transport protocol, HTTP. If we were to change the underlying protocol,
we...

Soils of the Past

John Wiley & Sons, 2001

It is 10 years since publication of the first edition of soils of the past. In that time the subject of paleopedology has grown rapidly, and established itself within the mainstream of geological research.

Ancient soils contain vital mineralogical, geochemical, textural, and paleontological information about the continental environments in...

Remote Sensing Image Analysis: Including the Spatial Domain (Remote Sensing and Digital Image Processing)

Springer, 2007

Remote Sensing image analysis is mostly done using only spectral information on a pixel by pixel basis. Information captured in neighbouring cells, or information about patterns surrounding the pixel of interest often provides useful supplementary information. This book presents a wide range of innovative and advanced image processing methods for...

How to Lie with Maps

University of Chicago Press, 1991

Originally published to wide acclaim, this lively, cleverly illustrated essay on the use and abuse of maps teaches us how to evaluate maps critically and promotes a healthy skepticism about these easy-to-manipulate models of reality. Monmonier shows that, despite their immense value, maps lie. In fact, they must.

The second...

Electron Microprobe Analysis and Scanning Electron Microscopy in Geology

Cambridge University Press, 2006

The favourable reception given to the first (1996) edition of this book suggests that the joint treatment of electron microprobe analysis (EMPA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with a specifically geological slant has been found to serve a useful purpose. It was therefore decided to proceed with this second, revised and updated,...
