Cerrado
Cerrado: capital natural e serviços ambientais, narra a importância do Bioma Cerrado e de sua conservação, através de compilado de textos de embasamento científico sobre o tema, a obra destaca ao longo de seus capítulos, em tom de denúncia e apelo, os principais danos e prejuízos ambientais, climáticos e até econômicos que resultam de sua degradação. Os autores também se preocupam em apontar caminhos que demonstrem otimismo e esperança no futuro sustentável e no combate a degradação de um dos maiores Biomas da América Latina.
A agricultura familiar na era da segurança hídrica e alimentar
O presente livro é fruto de um projeto de suporte à agricultura familiar, nas dimensões água, alimento e educação, em que o esforço para garantia de acesso à água e segurança hídrica resultou em impactos sociais e econômicos relevantes aos grupos estudados, garantindo também a segurança alimentar das famílias. Nesse contexto, os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável – ODS também foram analisados, trazendo correlação direta do modelo implementado com os ODS: 1 – Erradicação da Pobreza; 2 – Fome Zero e Agricultura Sustentável; 5 – Igualdade de Gênero; 8 – Trabalho decente e crescimento econômico, 10 – Redução das desigualdades; 13 – Ação contra a mudança global do clima; e 17 – Parcerias. O modelo estudado pode ser expandido a outros grupos familiares, respeitando as peculiaridades culturais socioprodutivas, com contribuições importantes ao bem-estar e à qualidade de vida da coletividade, e ainda servir de base para políticas públicas de suporte à agricultura familiar. A agricultura familiar na era da segurança hídrica e alimentar!
Educação, meio ambiente e saúde
Ao ler os escritos científicos do sul do Piauí não esperem encontrar análises fechadas ao espaço geográfico, posto que a intenção é inversa, é um movimento de troca contínua de reflexão e adaptação aos mais diversos e surpreendentes contextos contemporâneos. Não obstante, além da relevância entre os objetos de pesquisa, há algo muito peculiar, quais sejam os autores, alguns gratos amigos, e todos certamente muito conscientes do seu papel de propulsores do conhecimento científico em uma região tão rica em potencial, porém ainda tão pouco explorada e que para esses autores os verbos aguçar, despertar e compreender certamente fazem parte de seus cotidianos laborais.

Challenges and Innovations in Geomechanics
This book gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of computational geomechanics, as presented by international researchers and engineers at the 16th International Conference of the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (IACMAG 2020/21). Contributions include a wide range of topics in geomechanics such as: monitoring and remote sensing, multiphase modelling, reliability and risk analysis, surface structures, deep structures, dams and earth structures, coastal engineering, mining engineering, earthquake and dynamics, soil-atmosphere interaction, ice mechanics, landfills and waste disposal, gas and petroleum engineering, geothermal energy, offshore technology, energy geostructures, geomechanical numerical models and computational rail geotechnics.
Primates in Flooded Habitats
A ground breaking study of primates that live in flooded habitats around the world.
Soil Biodiversity in Amazonian and Other Brazilian Ecosystems
This book reviews soil biodiversity and related ecological processes in one of the key biodiversity hotspots of the world, the Amazon, and nearby regions of Brazil. It covers both the tropical savannah and rainforests. Chapters describe the biology, ecology, taxonomy, geographic distribution and sampling methods for the most important soil functional groups. The book is based on a project "Conservation and Sustainable Management of Below-Ground Biodiversity", executed by TSBF-CIAT with co-financing from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and implementation support from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
Federated Learning
How is it possible to allow multiple data owners to collaboratively train and use a shared prediction model while keeping all the local training data private? Traditional machine learning approaches need to combine all data at one location, typically a data center, which may very well violate the laws on user privacy and data confidentiality. Today, many parts of the world demand that technology companies treat user data carefully according to user-privacy laws. The European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a prime example. In this book, we describe how federated machine learning addresses this problem with novel solutions combining distributed machine learning, cryptography and security, and incentive mechanism design based on economic principles and game theory. We explain different types of privacy-preserving machine learning solutions and their technological backgrounds, and highlight some representative practical use cases. We show how federated learning can become the foundation of next-generation machine learning that caters to technological and societal needs for responsible AI development and application.

The Diagnosis of Psychosis
Psychosis has many causes. Psychiatrists typically receive the most thorough training in its diagnosis, but the diagnosis of psychosis secondary to nonpsychiatric conditions is not often emphasized. An understanding of the underlying cause of psychosis is important for effective management. The Diagnosis of Psychosis bridges the gap between psychiatry and medicine, providing a comprehensive review of primary and secondary causes of psychosis. It covers both common and rare causes in a clinically focused guide. Useful both for teaching and reference, the text covers physical and mental state examination, describes key investigations, and summarizes the non-psychiatric features of medical conditions causing psychosis. Particularly relevant for psychiatrists and trainees in psychiatry, this volume will also assist neurologists and general physicians who encounter psychosis in their practice.
