French For Beginners
Ready To Learn The French Language quickly and in a practical way? There’s just something about French that is just utterly sexy. Even if you are just discussing how bad the weather is or just describing the peculiarities of a wooden spoon, saying it in French somehow transforms the mundane into the ethereal. Maybe it’s the passage of air through the nose when pronouncing “Champs Elysées” or the sophisticated accent when ordering “un croissant, s’il vous plaît”, but saying things in French can be a rather magical experience. Why learn French? You may have your own personal reasons for learning this lovely but also complicated language, maybe you’re going for an exchange stu...
Micro-XRF Studies of Sediment Cores
This volume presents papers on the use of micro-XRF core scanners in palaeoenvironmental research. It contains a broad ranging view of instrument capability and points to future developments that will help contribute to higher precision elemental data and faster core analysis. Readers will find a diverse range of research by leading experts that have used micro-XRF core scanners in a wide range of scientific applications. The book includes specific application papers reporting on the use of XRF core scanners in a variety of marine, lacustrine, and pollution studies. In addition, coverage also examines practical aspects of core scanner usage, data optimisation and data calibration and interpr...
Using Paleolimnology for Management and Restoration of Lakes
This e-book presents state-of-the-art research projects and opinions on using paleolimnology for lake restoration and managment. It illustrates the general idea that proposing adequate restoration and managment solutions must be based on the past. Knowing the natural and anthropic variations a water body went through defines the best ways for maintaining or restoring an ecosystem. By quantifying baseline conditions, paleolimnology provides a definite plan for restoration and management. This cannot be achieved without studying the past.
Landform - Structure, Evolution, Process Control
This book offers a broad interdisciplinary overview of state-of-the-art research on landform related issues. It presents a selection of papers given at the International Symposium on "Landform – structure, evolution process control", Bonn, June 2007.
Submarine Mass Movements and Their Consequences
With contributions from leading researchers in science and engineering, this book provides a global perspective on submarine mass movements and their consequences. Authors report on new findings from fundamental as well as site-specific studies from around the world. All studies relied on the most recent technologies, including multi-beam sonar imaging techniques, 3D seismic analysis, slope stability analysis, debris flow, and tsunami modeling.
Living with Risk in the Late Roman World
Explores the ever-present experiences of risk that characterized the daily existence of individuals, communities, and societies in the late Roman world Living with Risk in the Late Roman World explores the ever-present experiences of risk that characterized the daily existence of individuals, communities, and societies in the late Roman world (late third century CE through mid-sixth century CE). Recognizing the vital role of human agency, author Cam Grey bases his argument on the concept of the riskscape: the collection of risks that constitute everyday lived experience, the human perception of those risks, and the actions that exploit, mitigate, or exacerbate them. In contrast to recent gra...
The Oxford Handbook of Wetland Archaeology
This Handbook sets out the key issues and debates in the theory and practice of wetland archaeology which has played a crucial role in studies of our past. Due to the high quantity of preserved organic materials found in humid environments, the study of wetlands has allowed archaeologists to reconstruct people's everyday lives in great detail.
Submarine Mass Movements and their Consequences
This book is a comprehensive collection of state-of-the-art studies of seafloor slope instability and their societal implications. The volume captures the most recent and exciting scientific progress made in this research field. As the world’s climate and energy needs change, the conditions under which slope instability occurs and needs to be considered, are also changing. The science and engineering of submarine – or more widely subaqueous – mass movements is greatly benefiting from advances in seafloor and sub-seafloor surveying technologies. Ultra-high-resolution seafloor mapping and 3D seismic reflection cubes are becoming commonly available datasets that are dramatically increasin...
