This tutorial provides the application of the coupling interface OGS#IPhreeqc (open-source scientific software) to model reactive mass transport processes in environmental subsurface systems. It contains general information regarding reactive transport modeling and step-by-step model set-up with OGS#IPhreeqc and related components such as GINA and ParaView. Benchmark examples (1D to 2D) are presented in detail. The book is intended primarily for graduate students and applied scientists who deal with reactive transport modeling. It also gives valuable information to the professional geoscientists wishing to advance their knowledge in numerical simulation, with the focus on the fate and transport of nitrate. It is the third volume in a series that represents the further application of computational modeling in hydrological science.
This book explores the application of the open-source software OpenGeoSys (OGS) for hydrological numerical simulations concerning conservative and reactive transport modeling. It provides general information on the hydrological and groundwater flow modeling of a real case study and step-by-step model set-up with OGS, while also highlighting related components such as the OGS Data Explorer. The material is based on unpublished manuals and the results of a collaborative project between China and Germany (SUSTAIN H2O). Though the book is primarily intended for graduate students and applied scientists who deal with hydrological modeling, it also offers a valuable source of information for professional geoscientists wishing to expand their knowledge of the numerical modeling of hydrological processes including nitrate reactive transport modeling. This book is the second in a series that showcases further applications of computational modeling in hydrological science.
The book comprises the 3rd collection of benchmarks and examples for porous and fractured media mechanics. Analysis of thermo-hydro-mechanical-chemical (THMC) processes is essential to a wide area of applications in environmental engineering, such as geological waste deposition, geothermal energy utilization (shallow and deep systems), carbon capture and storage (CCS) as well as water resources management and hydrology. In order to assess the feasibility, safety as well as sustainability of geoenvironmental applications, model-based simulation is the only way to quantify future scenarios. This charges a huge responsibility concerning the reliability of conceptual models and computational too...
Die Vierteljahresschrift Koreana der Korea Foundation stellt seit ihrer ersten Ausgabe im Jahr 1987 die traditionelle Kultur Koreas und die verschiedenen Seiten der modernen Kultur und Kunst des Landes vor und trägt dazu bei, die Kenntnisse über Korea im Ausland zu erweitern und Interesse dafür zu wecken. Zu diesem Zweck wird für jede Ausgabe jeweils ein bestimmtes Thema gewählt und intensiv behandelt. Weitere Artikel behandeln aktuelle Kulturereignisse, Persönlichkeiten aus dem Kunst- und Kulturleben, Lebensstile Koreas, Natur und Ökologie sowie Literatur.
This book describes the huge efforts by the Chinese Government concerning the restoration and future sustainable management of Chinese water systems. It presents the results of a Sino-European joint project concerning the Songhuajiang-Liaohe River Basin (SLRB) in Northeast China conducted by the Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences (CRAES), the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research - UFZ, Germany, and the Natural Environment Research Council as represented by the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (CEH), UK. The book explains in great detail the development of risk assessment and corresponding management methods for (i) controlling water pollution, (ii) assessing river health and ecological restoration options, (iii) characterizing persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and (iv) protecting fragile groundwater resources. It also describes the implemented demonstration sites of SLRB during the project course as well as lessons learnt on efficient project management and the dissemination of knowledge and technologies.
Koreana is a full-color quarterly on Korean culture and arts, including traditional heritage as well as modern and contemporary activities. Each issue includes in-depth coverage of a selected theme, followed by an array of articles on artists and artisans, historic and cultural landmarks, natural attractions, reviews of stage performances and exhibitions, literary pieces, and today’s lifestyles. Published since 1987, the magazine can also be accessed at (www.koreana.or.kr).
Koreana [www.koreana.or.kr], diterbitkan empat kali setahun dalam edisi berwarna sejak tahun 1987, bertujuan meningkatkan kesadaran atas khazanah budaya Korea dan member informasi tentang kegiatan seni budaya Korea mutakhir. Dalam setiap edisi Koreana mengangkat tema budaya tertentu dan membicarakannya dari berbagai aspek, dan memperkenalkan seniman tradisi Korea, cara hidup, objek wisata alam, dan tema-tema yang alin.
This book presents the latest research findings, methods and development techniques, challenges and solutions concerning UPC from both theoretical and practical perspectives, with an emphasis on innovative, mobile and Internet services. With the proliferation of wireless technologies and electronic devices, there is a rapidly growing interest in Ubiquitous and Pervasive Computing (UPC), which makes it possible to create a human-oriented computing environment in which computer chips are embedded in everyday objects and interact with the physical world. Through UPC, people can go online even while moving around, thus enjoying nearly permanent access to their preferred services. Though it has the potential to revolutionize our lives, UPC also poses a number of new research challenges.
Klaus Trumpf legt ein Monument für den Kontrabass vor. Sein innig geliebtes und leider gemeinhin unterschätztes Instrument hat nichts Geringeres verdient. Was mich mindestens genauso vehement begeistert: Trumpf schildert sein Leben mit dem Kontrabass auf eine Weise, die nicht nur Musiker fasziniert und in ih-ren Bann zieht. Aufgewachsen in der DDR, stellt Trumpf seine internationalen Erfahrungen immer wieder in den jeweiligen gesellschaftspolitischen Kontext. Er lässt uns seine Begegnungen mit großartigen Musikern hautnah miterleben und schlägt dabei den Bogen von den Anfängen des Kontrabass’ bis weit in die Zukunft.
This book provides evidence that the emergence of Asian new religious movements (NRMs) was predominantly the result of anti-colonial ideology from local religious groups or individuals. The contributors argue that when traditional religions were powerless to maintain their cultural heritage, the leadership of NRMs adduced alternative principles, and the new teachings of each NRM attracted the local people enough for them to change their beliefs. The contributors argue that, as a whole, the Asian new religious movements overall were very ardent and progressive in transmitting their new ideologies. The varied viewpoints in this volume attest to the consistent development of Asian NRMs from domestic and international dimensions by replacing old, traditional religions.
