Hydrometeorological Hazards
HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL EXTREME EVENTS Hydrometeorological Hazards: Interfacing Science and Policy Recent hydrometeorological extreme events have highlighted the increased exposure and vulnerability of societies and the need to strengthen the knowledge-base of related policies. Current research is focused on improving forecasting, prediction and early warning capabilities in order to improve the assessment of vulnerability and risks linked to extreme climatic events. Hydrometeorological Hazards: Interfacing Science and Policy is the first volume of a series which will gather scientific and policy-related knowledge on climate-related extreme events. Invited authors are internationally recognized ...
Thermonuclear Supernovae
All theoretical and observational topics relevant to the understanding of the thermonuclear (Type Ia) supernova phenomenon are thoroughly and consistently reviewed by a panel including the foremost experts in the field. The book covers all aspects, ranging from the observations of SNe Ia at all stages and all wavelengths to the 2D and 3D modelling of thermonuclear flames in very dense plasmas. Scenarios for close binary evolution leading to SNe Ia are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on the homogeneity vs. diversity of SNe Ia and on their use as standard candles to measure cosmological parameters. The book reflects the recent and very significant progress made in both the modelling of the explosions and in the observational field.
Vascular Involvement in Eye Diseases
Retinal vessels have embryological, anatomical and physiological similarities with coronary and cerebral vessels and many systemic vascular pathologies, such as hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease affect the retinal vessels from function to structure. In addition, ocular disorders that constitute major public health problems, either directly involve retinal and/or choroidal vessels such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, or have vascular factors as risk factors such as myopia or glaucoma. Understanding the vascular processes that occur in these diseases could advance our understanding of visual compromise associated with these disorders and, possibly...
