Tropical Agroforestry
Agroforestry is recognized as a sustainable land-use management in the tropics, as it provides environmental-friendly ecosystems; it also provides people with their every day need for food and cash. Since the recognition of agroforestry as a science, curricula have been developed for agroforestry programs for undergraduate and graduate trainings in Universities. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop and make available educational material. This textbook strives to provide up-to-date information on tropical agroforestry to serve as educational material in the tropical context. The authoritative textbook of Nair (1993) on agroforestry was published 18 years ago, and before the advent of tree domestication, an important agroforestry practice today. In addition, many other research activities, such as carbon sequestration and integrated pest management, have been included in the agroforestry agenda. This textbook is intended for agroforestry students, teachers, and practitioners.
Agroforestry for sustainable agriculture
Comprehensive review of the effectiveness of particular agroforestry practices, from riparian forest buffers and filter strips, windbreaks and contour buffers to alley cropping, silvopasture and forest farming Summarises current research on ecosystem services delivered by agroforestry, from promoting biodiversity and soil health to water quality and management Assesses research on best practice in tree planting and management as well as optimising agroforestry products, from timber and nuts to bioenery
Mathematical Methods in Medical and Biological Sciences
Mathematical Methods in Medical and Biological Sciences presents mathematical methods for computational models arising in the medical and biological sciences. The book presents several real-life medical and biological models, such as infectious and non-infectious diseases that can be modeled mathematically to accomplish profound research in virtual environments when the cost of laboratory expenses is relatively high. It focuses on mathematical techniques that provide global solutions for models arising in medical and biological sciences by considering their long-term benefits. In addition, the book provides leading-edge developments and insights for a range of applications, including epidemi...
An Ambazonian Liberation Theology?
The last 6 years have witnessed a period of considerable unrest in Cameroun. In 2016, protests within the minority Anglophone regions, against the obligatory use of French in court rooms and schools, were violently suppressed. This, combined with decades of marginalisation by successive Francophone governments, led to calls for secession – the creation of an independent nation of Ambazonia.This book offers a theological reflection on this escalating crisis, examining whether nationalism might be considered a tool of liberation in this particular African context.
Fractional Derivatives with Mittag-Leffler Kernel
This book offers a timely overview of fractional calculus applications, with a special emphasis on fractional derivatives with Mittag-Leffler kernel. The different contributions, written by applied mathematicians, physicists and engineers, offers a snapshot of recent research in the field, highlighting the current methodological frameworks together with applications in different fields of science and engineering, such as chemistry, mechanics, epidemiology and more. It is intended as a timely guide and source of inspiration for graduate students and researchers in the above-mentioned areas.
Mathematical Modelling, Applied Analysis and Computation
This book contains original research papers presented at the International Conference on Mathematical Modelling, Applied Analysis and Computation, held at JECRC University, Jaipur, India, on 6-8 July, 2018. Organized into 20 chapters, the book focuses on theoretical and applied aspects of various types of mathematical modelling such as equations of various types, fuzzy mathematical models, automata, Petri nets and bond graphs for systems of dynamic nature and the usage of numerical techniques in handling modern problems of science, engineering and finance. It covers the applications of mathematical modelling in physics, chemistry, biology, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, computer ...
Hepatitis B Virus and Liver Disease
This book provides a comprehensive, state-of-the art review of HBV infection and liver disease. It discusses new data on basic and translational medicine, including the viral life cycle, the immunopathogenesis of virus-induced chronic hepatitis, viral and host genetic factors affecting disease progression, and the mechanism of virus-induced hepatocarcinogenesis, as well as their potential applications in daily clinical practice. The clinical aspects of chronic HBV infection are examined in chapters on the global epidemiology, efficacy of HBV vaccination, natural history, novel biomarkers, co-infections with HCV, HDV or HIV, and management of special populations including children, pregnant w...
Fractional Dynamics
The book is devoted to recent developments in the theory of fractional calculus and its applications. Particular attention is paid to the applicability of this currently popular research field in various branches of pure and applied mathematics. In particular, the book focuses on the more recent results in mathematical physics, engineering applications, theoretical and applied physics as quantum mechanics, signal analysis, and in those relevant research fields where nonlinear dynamics occurs and several tools of nonlinear analysis are required. Dynamical processes and dynamical systems of fractional order attract researchers from many areas of sciences and technologies, ranging from mathematics and physics to computer science.
Agroforestry and Biodiversity Conservation in Tropical Landscapes
Agroforestry -- the practice of integrating trees and other large woody perennials on farms and throughout the agricultural landscape -- is increasingly recognized as a useful and promising strategy that diversifies production for greater social, economic, and environmental benefits. Agroforestry and BiodiversityConservation in Tropical Landscapes brings together 46 scientists and practitioners from 13 countries with decades of field experience in tropical regions to explore how agroforestry practices can help promote biodiversity conservation in human-dominated landscapes, to synthesize the current state of knowledge in the field, and to identify areas where further research is needed. Agro...
