Actas del I Congreso Anual de Estudiantes de Doctorado de la Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche (CAED)
La primera edición del Congreso Anual de Estudiantes de Doctorado con carácter Internacional de la Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche ha sido un gran reto para el comité organizador del mismo, conformado por 11 estudiantes de doctorado que voluntariamente han prestado su tiempo para crear este lugar de encuentro entre doctorandos. Nos sentimos gratamente sorprendidos y orgullosos de la difusión que ha tenido el I CAED, además de la gran acogida por parte del estudiantado, puesto que se han registrado más de 1600 inscripciones, además de unas 800 contribuciones tanto en formato oral como póster. El comité organizador quiere expresar su agradecimiento al Vicerrectorado de Investig...
The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.

Designing Urban Transformation
While designers possess the creative capabilities of shaping cities, their often-singular obsession with form and aesthetics actually reduces their effectiveness as they are at the mercy of more powerful generators of urban form. In response to this paradox, Designing Urban Transformation addresses the incredible potential of urban practice to radically change cities for the better. The book focuses on a powerful question, "What can urbanism be?" by arguing that the most significant transformations occur by fundamentally rethinking concepts, practices, and outcomes. Drawing inspiration from the philosophical movement known as Pragmatism, the book proposes three conceptual shifts for transfor...
Biodiversity, Ecosystem Functioning, and Human Wellbeing
The book starts by summarizing the development of the basic science and provides a meta-analysis that quantitatively tests several biodiversity and ecosystem functioning hypotheses.
Modelling the Flying Bird
This book outlines the principles of flight, of birds in particular. It describes a way of simplifying the mechanics of flight into a practical computer program, which will predict in some detail what any bird, real or hypothetical, can and cannot do. The Flight program, presented on the companion website, generates performance curves for flapping and gliding flight, and simulations of long-distance migration and accounts successfully for the consumption of muscles and other tissues during migratory flights. The program is effectively a working model of a flying bird (or bat or pterosaur) and is the skeleton around which the book is built. The book provides a wider background and then explai...
Applied Longitudinal Data Analysis
By charting changes over time and investigating whether and when events occur, researchers reveal the temporal rhythms of our lives.
