This essential reference provides an introduction to the remarkable soils and landscapes of Australia. It reveals their great diversity and explains why an understanding of soil properties and landscape processes should guide our use of the land. Using striking photographs of characteristic landscapes, it begins by describing the basic properties of soils and how Australia's distinctive soils and landscapes have co-evolved. We gain a greater understanding of why particular soils occur at certain locations and how soil variation can influence landscape processes, agricultural productivity and ecosystem function. The book explains the impact of various forms of land use and the changes they ca...

Combinatorial chemistry is the ability to simultaneously synthesize vast numbers of diverse compounds. Its techniques have revolutionized the drug discovery process, and are widely used throughout the biotechnology community. Aimed at a wide audience, this text is a down-to-earth introductionto small molecule combinatorial chemistry. It uses a tutorial approach to provide a detailed survey of solid-phase peptide synthesis and solution-phase synthesis. It also reviews current automated approaches and equipment for both solid- and solution-phase library synthesis.
This volume guides the reader along a statistical journey that begins with the basic structure of Bayesian theory, and then provides details on most of the past and present advances in this field.
