CO2 Sequestration
This book discusses different strategies that can be adopted by agriculture and industry to enhance CO2 sequestration and reduce the impacts of global warming and climate change. Written by researchers from different fields, chapters cover such topics as the management of agricultural systems with the implementation of agronomic practices that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase soil carbon stocks, the technology of adsorption on activated carbon from low-cost raw material, and the effective methods of carbon capture and storage, among others. This volume is a useful reference for the general public, undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers who aim to deepen their knowledge of those topics.

The Migration Conference 2018 Book of Abstracts and Programme
This volume presents the book of abstracts and programme for the Migration Conference 2018 hosted by ISEG and IGOT at Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal from 26 to 28 June 2018. It covers about 140 sessions and over 600 contributors from about 60 countries joining from around the world.
Salud pública y teoría cuántica
Las ciencias sociales y humanas, al igual que las ciencias de la salud –incluida la medicina–, son, a la fecha, precuánticas. Si les va bien, en el mejor de los casos, son relativistas, en el sentido de la teoría de la relatividad de Einstein. Es imposible entender el mundo de hoy, la realidad y la naturaleza sin un conocimiento básico de la teoría cuántica. Este libro busca llenar un vacío en una triple dirección: tender puentes entre la física cuántica y las ciencias sociales, tenderlos entre la teoría cuántica y las ciencias de la salud, y pensar, al mismo tiempo, la salud (no ya la enfermedad). El marco genérico es el contexto de las relaciones entre la salud y las ciencias de la complejidad. Una idea de base: la salud no es única –ni principalmente– un problema antropológico, antropomórfico o antropocéntrico.
Afro-Latin American Studies
Examines the full range of humanities and social science scholarship on people of African descent in Latin America.
Arid Environments and Sustainability
Arid environments are basically associated with water scarcity. Therefore, soils will have an extremely low moisture level to support plant and animal life as well as human social life. Sustainability is the long durability of systems and processes within various adapted environmental conditions. Recently, systematic scientific studies on arid environments and sustainability have become more attractive, critical, and sound than the previous years. Sharing such experiences related to different environmental circumstances will absolutely help scientists and decision-makers to have better interpretation of their own environment. By learning lessons, appropriate, fast, and effective approaches require to implement for overwhelming such problems. Such actions will certainly lead to more secure and sustainable environments for plant, animal, and human life.
Adsorption Technology and Design
The aim of this book is to provide all those involved in designing and running adsorption processes with a guide to adsorption technology and design.
New Frontiers on Life Cycle Assessment
The purpose of this book is to collect a high-quality selection of contemporary research articles on life cycle perspectives when we want to assess and predict the sustainability of solutions that lie in front of us.The book focuses on methodologies and tools used for life cycle sustainability management covering environmental, social, and economic aspects in business practices, including modeling and simulation-based approaches. In particular, the book aims to collect research, applications, and case studies in the field of environmental analysis and industrial ecology, with a focus on how to assess contributions to increase resource efficiency and reduce environmental impact on production and service systems in a life cycle perspective (raw material extraction, production, use, and end-of-life management).This book is intended to be a useful resource for anyone who deals with this issue.
Soil Mapping and Process Modeling for Sustainable Land Use Management
Soil Mapping and Process Modeling for Sustainable Land Use Management is the first reference to address the use of soil mapping and modeling for sustainability from both a theoretical and practical perspective. The use of more powerful statistical techniques are increasing the accuracy of maps and reducing error estimation, and this text provides the information necessary to utilize the latest techniques, as well as their importance for land use planning. Providing practical examples to help illustrate the application of soil process modeling and maps, this reference is an essential tool for professionals and students in soil science and land management who want to bridge the gap between soil modeling and sustainable land use planning. - Offers both a theoretical and practical approach to soil mapping and its uses in land use management for sustainability - Synthesizes the most up-to-date research on soil mapping techniques and applications - Provides an interdisciplinary approach from experts worldwide working in soil mapping and land management
Frontiers in Guided Wave Optics and Optoelectronics
As the editor, I feel extremely happy to present to the readers such a rich collection of chapters authored/co-authored by a large number of experts from around the world covering the broad field of guided wave optics and optoelectronics. Most of the chapters are state-of-the-art on respective topics or areas that are emerging. Several authors narrated technological challenges in a lucid manner, which was possible because of individual expertise of the authors in their own subject specialties. I have no doubt that this book will be useful to graduate students, teachers, researchers, and practicing engineers and technologists and that they would love to have it on their book shelves for ready reference at any time.
