Advances in Human Factors, Business Management and Leadership
This book analyzes new theories and practical approaches for promoting excellence in human resource management and leadership. It shows how the principles of creating shared value can be applied to ensure faster learning, training, business development and social renewal. In particular, it presents novel methods and tools for tackling the complexity of management and learning in both business organizations and society. Discussing ontologies, intelligent management systems, and methods for creating knowledge and value added, it offers novel insights into time management and operations optimization, as well as advanced methods for evaluating customers’ satisfaction and conscious experience. Based on two AHFE 2020 Virtual Conferences: the AHFE 2020 Conference on Human Factors, Business Management and Society and the AHFE 2020 Conference on Human Factors in Management and Leadership, held on July 16–20, 2020, the book provides researchers and professionals with extensive information, practical tools and inspiring ideas for achieving excellence in a broad spectrum of business and societal activities.
Processionary Moths and Climate Change : An Update
Because of its peculiar biology, its negative impacts on forestry, and its urticating larvae affecting human and animal health, pine processionary moth has largely been studied in many European countries during the last century. However, knowledge remained scattered and no synthesis has ever been published. Since the IPCC retained the moth as one of the two insect indicators of climate change because of its expansion with warming up, filling this gap became increasingly important. Led by INRA, this book associates 101 authors from 22 countries of Europe, Minor Asia and North Africa, combining all the concerned research fields (entomology, ecology, genetics, mathematical modelling, medical and veterinary science, pest management) in a multidisciplinary approach to understand and model the processes underlying past, present and future moth expansion and to propose adapted management methods. Besides, the major biological patterns of the related processionary species are also detailed.
Biodiversity and Wind Farms in Portugal
This book presents a review of the state-of-the-art knowledge on the interactions between biodiversity and wind energy development, focused on the Portuguese reality. The volume addresses the particularities of the impact assessment procedures in Portugal, contrasting it with the international practices and presenting its main findings by covering the following broader themes: i) evaluation of spatial and temporal dynamics of wildlife affected by wind farms, including birds, bats and terrestrial mammals (in particularly Portuguese wolf population); ii) the methodologies used to assess impacts caused by this type of developments in biodiversity; iii) the best practice methodologies to impleme...
Wind Energy and Wildlife Impacts
This book provides a state-of-art overview of the significant advances in understanding the impacts of wind energy on wildlife. However, many challenges remain regarding planning and policy, assessment of direct and indirect effects on wildlife, methodological approaches, technology development, and mitigation strategies and their effectiveness. The book comprises a selection of the best contributions presented at the 4th Conference on Wind energy and Wildlife impacts, held in Estoril, Portugal, 2017. The contents promote the international cooperation among researchers, developers, regulators and stakeholders that have contributed to building knowledge on this topic.
Avian Genetics
Avian Genetics: A Population and Ecological Approach is a collection of papers that deals with the study of birds in relation to the synthetic theory of evolution. This book studies the ecology, demography, behavior, and geographical distribution of birds; the text also discusses quantitative, chromosomal, biochemical, and population genetics. Part I reviews the various genetic interactions, including an analysis of DNA sequence variation. The different and newer techniques are compared such as the works of Sibley, Quinn, and White. Part II describes the molding genetic variation and covers topics such as inbreeding; gene flow and the genetic structure of populations; non-random mating; and ...
Wildlife and Traffic
Provides practical guidance for those involved in the different phases of planning, construction and maintenance of transportation infrastructure. The main aim of the book is to assist planners and engineers in minimising ecological barriers and fragmentation effects of transportation infrastructure such as roads, railways and waterways.
La paz, un talento de la niñez. Aproximaciones en clave de investigación libre
"La realidad interna debe ser de alguna manera una realidad expresada, como una melodía interna que se transmite, como el fluir subterráneo de una linfa que sube a animar las flores y los frutos, una unidad interior que se manifiesta por todas partes..." - Dr. David Ferriz Olivares. Fundador Fundación Elle Entre la exacerbación colorida y lumínica de las pantallas: se despliega otra vía, la de la transformación, abriendo infinidad de micro esperanzas que ampliadas y potenciadas establecen un camino con sentido y futuro para la humanidad. Lo pequeño es hermoso y muestra horizontes éticos y estéticos para el diseño de un mejor presente en la tercera década del siglo XXI. Podríamos...
