Human and Raptor Interactions in the Context of a Nomadic Society
This research project focuses on contemporary eagle-taming falconry practice of the Altaic Kazakhs animal herding society in Bayan Ulgii Province in Western Mongolia. It aims to contributing both theoretical and empirical criteria for cultural preservation of Asian falconry. This cultural as well as environmental discourse is illustrated with concentrated field research framed by ecological anthropology and ethno-ornithology from the viewpoint of “Human-Animal Interaction (HAI)” and “Human-Animal Behavior (HAB)”. Part I (Chapter 2 & 3) explores ethno-archaeological and ethno-ornithological dimensions by interpretive research of archaeological artefacts which trace the historical dept...
Marschner's Mineral Nutrition of Higher Plants
"Respected and known worldwide in the field for his research in plant nutrition, Dr. Horst Marschner authored two editions of Mineral Nutrition of Higher Plants. His research greatly advanced the understanding of plant nutrition ranging from rhizosphere processes to nutrient uptake and utilization by plants in the field. While visiting field experiments in West Africa in 1996, Dr. Marschner contracted malaria and passed away, and until now this legacy title went unrevised. Despite the passage of time, it remains the definitive reference on plant mineral nutrition. Since the last edition, great progress has been made in the understanding of various aspects of plant nutrition. In recent years, the perspective on the mode of action of nutrients in plant metabolism and yield formation has shifted. Much progress has been made in the molecular aspects of nutrient uptake and transport within plants as well as the responses of plants to nutrient deficiency or toxicity. These and many other developments are covered in this long-awaited new edition."--P. [4] of cover.

Biochar effects on carbon and nutrient fluxes during compost production and on wastewater irrigated soils in urban gardens of two West African cities
The research focuses on carbon and nutrient, fluxes and the role of biochar in the intensive urban and peri-urban systems of two West African cities. The first chapter introduces the thesis and gives a background of the entire Ph.D. research as well as the research objectives and hypotheses addressed in the study. Chapters 2, 3, and 4 contain research results. Chapter 5 contains a general discussion where I have addressed methodological issues as well as the experimental design, included are further comments on the management practices of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso) andTamale (northern Ghana) and also the potential of biochar in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This thesis ends with conclusions and recommendations that may be useful in the future to researchers and to stakeholders of the agro-industry in SSA.
