Amazonia and Global Change
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 186. Amazonia and Global Change synthesizes results of the Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere Experiment in Amazonia (LBA) for scientists and students of Earth system science and global environmental change. LBA, led by Brazil, asks how Amazonia currently functions in the global climate and biogeochemical systems and how the functioning of Amazonia will respond to the combined pressures of climate and land use change, such as Wet season and dry season aerosol concentrations and their effects on diffuse radiation and photosynthesis Increasing greenhouse gas concentration, deforestation, widespread bi...

Distance and E-learning in Transition
The rushed development of information and communication technologies and their impact on the world of learning in the last decade have profoundly changed the paradigms, scenarios and values at all levels of education. The professionalization of tools and practices, in addition to the consolidation of academic and practical knowledge, has been a major continuing issue throughout these years. The annual conferences of the largest European professional community in distance and e-learning have been setting the landmarks in this process. The selection from this unique knowledge pool demonstrates the deepening and consolidation of knowledge and experience. This book presents the developments in the field of open, distance and e-learning, through new technologies, methodologies and tools, which have profoundly changed the paradigms, scenarios and values at all levels of education over the last decade.
Englishes Today
The spread and globalisation of English has proved to be of interest in the study of diverse linguistic phenomena. From a methodological perspective, the study of Englishes poses a number of challenges, and attempts have been made to address these in corpus linguistics, sociolinguistic fieldwork and variationist studies. As such, this volume contributes to this increasingly fashionable, but still somewhat under-explored field of research by drawing together ideas from different frameworks and approaches dealing with English today. The different chapters reflect current trends in English linguistics research, and can be characterized broadly in terms of the study of the different diatopic and diastratic varieties of English, and the adoption of various theoretical and methodological perspectives. The chapters deal with the globalisation of English in itself and with the origin, development and status of varieties of English, often seen as a testing ground for different research traditions, including typological linguistics, second language acquisition, contact linguistics and sociolinguistics.
On the Way to NowHere
This is the autobiography of a Brazilian-born woman who left her native country as a teenager, in search of love and freedom. Thirty years later, she relates her story with the maturity and focus gained through her experiences. Guided by intense passion, Komala uses her life's opportunities to observe the mind, learn to respect her own heart, and understand the potential of the body as a vehicle for consciousness. As she allows the mystery of the soul to be revealed, vulnerability brings strength, intuition turns into evolving clarity. Merging poetry and prose, the words communicate the perspective of a woman's quest. Through exotic landscapes and unusual encounters, the readers are reminded of their potential for adventure, creativity, trust, love, and silence. Inspiring and enticing, this book weaves insights with humor, gentleness, inquiry, laughter, and tears... "You are like liquid fire!" Lani Levine ""If this book was a meal it would be a gourmet's delight. Komala gives us an extraordinary and courageous glimpse into her unique and adventuresome life. It is eloquent, profound, stirring and inspiringly unashamed." Leonard M. Zunin, M.D. psychiatrist and author
