Plant Strategies
How do plants make a living? Some plants are gamblers, others are swindlers. Some plants are habitual spenders while others are strugglers and miserly savers. Plants have evolved a spectacular array of solutions to the existential problems of survival and reproduction in a world where resources are scarce, disturbances can be deadly, and competition is cut-throat. Few topics have both captured the imagination and furrowed the brows of plant ecologists, yet no topic is more important for understanding the assembly of plant communities, predicting plant responses to global change, and enhancing the restoration of our rapidly degrading biosphere. The vast array of plant strategy models that cha...
A Textbook of Optics
This textbook has been designed to provide necessary foundation in optics which would not only acquaint the student with the subject but would also prepare for an intensive study of advanced topics in optics at a later stage. With an emphasis on concepts, mathematical derivations have been kept at the minimum. This textbook has been primarily written for undergraduate students of B.Sc. Physics and would also be a useful resource for aspirants appearing for competitive examinations.
A Framework for Community Ecology
Offers a unifying framework for community ecology by addressing how communities are assembled from species pools.
???:?????????
This invaluable collection of essays pays tribute to Dan Tsui, 1998 Nobel laureate in Physics. It paints a portrait of his outstanding personal attributes through the eyes of his friends and relatives. In addition, it provides a record of the environment which accompanied him in his search for knowledge. This book, capturing Dan Tsui's experience and joy of the search for knowledge, will inspire scholars of all ages.
A Framework for Community Ecology
This book addresses an important problem in ecology: how are communities assembled from species pools? This pressing question underlies a broad array of practical problems in ecology and environmental science, including restoration of damaged landscapes, management of protected areas, and protection of threatened species. This book presents a simple logical structure for ecological assembly and addresses key areas including species pools, traits, environmental filters, and functional groups. It demonstrates the use of two predictive models (CATS and Traitspace) and consists of many wide-ranging examples including plants in deserts, wetlands, and forests, and communities of fish, amphibians, birds, mammals, and fungi. Global in scope, this volume ranges from the arid lands of North Africa, to forests in the Himalayas, to Amazonian floodplains. There is a strong focus on applications, particularly the twin challenges of conserving biodiversity and understanding community responses to climate change.
Heat Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics
This textbook familiarizes the students with the general laws of thermodynamics, kinetic theory & statistical physics, and their applications to physics. Conceptually strong, it is flourished with numerous figures and examples to facilitate understanding of concepts. Written primarily for B.Sc. Physics students, this textbook would also be a useful reference for students of engineering.
