Ecosystem Services in Patagonia

This book aims to quantify and discuss how societies have directly and indirectly benefited from ecosystem services in Patagonia; not only in terms of provisioning and cultural services, but also regulating and supporting services. Patagonia, a region that stretches across two countries (ca. 10% in Chile and 90% in Argentina), is home to some of the most extensive wilderness areas on our planet. Natural grasslands comprise almost 30% of the Americas, including the Patagonian steppe, while Patagonian southern temperate forests are important for carbon sequestration and storage, play a pivotal role in water regulation, and have become widely recognized for their ecotourism value. However, prof...

Nanoalloys: From Fundamentals to Emergent Applications presents and discusses the major topics related to nanoalloys at a time when the literature on the subject remains scarce. Particular attention is paid to experimental and theoretical aspects under the form of broad reviews covering the most recent developments. The book is organized into 11 chapters covering the most fundamental aspects of nanoalloys related to their synthesis and characterization, as well as their theoretical study. Aspects related to their thermodynamics and kinetics are covered as well. The coverage then moves to more specific topics, including optics, magnetism and catalysis, and finally to biomedical applications a...

This volume explores the various methods used to study tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in pathological situations. Pre-clinical models are also discussed in detail to show how TLS structure, development, and maintenance can be targeted and studied in vivo. The chapters in this book cover topics such as humans and mice; strategies to quantify TLS in order to use it in stained tissue sections; classifying a gene signature form fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues; and development of murine inflammatory models to help look at TLS in the context of infection or malignancy. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and thorough, Tertiary Lymphoid Structures: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource that increases the reader’s knowledge on immune functions and how they will pave the way to future therapeutic applications.

Design for Hackers

Discover the techniques behind beautiful design by deconstructing designs to understand them The term 'hacker' has been redefined to consist of anyone who has an insatiable curiosity as to how things work—and how they can try to make them better. This book is aimed at hackers of all skill levels and explains the classical principles and techniques behind beautiful designs by deconstructing those designs in order to understand what makes them so remarkable. Author and designer David Kadavy provides you with the framework for understanding good design and places a special emphasis on interactive mediums. You'll explore color theory, the role of proportion and geometry in design, and the rela...

Fantasmas del norte

Este libro ingresa en un territorio que el autor liga más a la metafísica que a las ciencias sociales y la historia. Y par ello se sirve de una de las manifestaciones de la muerte y de lo sobrenatural: los fantasmas en el Norte de Chile, entidades generalmente surgidas luego de la muerte violenta de una o más personas. Uno de los méritos de este abordaje consiste en asumir la imagen de los aparecidos o fantasmas desde una motivación psicohistórica y no folclórica. Las sociedades humanas buscan «naturalizar» la muerte para sustraerla de ella y no dejarla como un final carente de sentido. Es menester entenderla como un tránsito hacia el «más allá». En este sentido, los aparecidos son la respuesta al misterio de la muerte y producen cercanía y familiaridad entre vivos y fallecidos; muestran la conexión íntima que existiría en las antípodas de la existencia que, pese a las circunstancias violentas del final, se hace umbroso pero no desaparece.

Ecoliderazgo y educación rural

Esta obra teoriza, modela y propone la relación entre el liderazgo y la educación rural a partir de la sistematización de diversas experiencias de investigación, extensión y formación realizadas en la Universidad de La Salle y compiladas por el Centro de Liderazgo y Excelencia Docente (CLED). El libro propone al ecoliderazgo como un enfoque conceptual, metodológico y axiológico que permite enfrentarse de forma sistémica al análisis y a la gestión de la educación rural. Se constituye en un aporte disruptivo y paradigmático en el campo del liderazgo educativo dado que amplía el horizonte existente para explicar y transformar la educación que reciben los habitantes de los territorios rurales

Spatial Complexity, Informatics, and Wildlife Conservation

As Earth faces the greatest mass extinction in 65 million years, the present is a moment of tremendous foment and emergence in ecological science. With leaps in advances in ecological research and the technical tools available, scientists face the critical task of challenging policymakers and the public to recognize the urgency of our global crisis. This book focuses directly on the interplay between theory, data, and analytical methodology in the rapidly evolving fields of animal ecology, conservation, and management. The mixture of topics of particular current relevance includes landscape ecology, remote sensing, spatial modeling, geostatistics, genomics, and ecological informatics. The greatest interest to the practicing scientist and graduate student will be the synthesis and integration of these topics to provide a composite view of the emerging field of spatial ecological informatics and its applications in research and management.
