Urban food production: A contribution to urban resilience in Berlin?
Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: We are an urbanized species now. Since 2007, more than 50% of Earth s population lives in cities (UN-Habitat 2011). In countries of the global north, this share is even higher with 86% (UN-Habitat 2011). These are the indices for a contemporary exodus of humans into the cities which results in a dramatic shift of human spatial and material relationships with the rest of nature (Rees and Wackernagel 1996). Urbanization leads to a centralization of needs for natural resources and energy in densely populated areas. The provision for the needs of these densely populated areas is based on rural hinterlands. In times of cheap oil, these growing cities have a global impa...
Klimaschutz in Metropolregionen: Möglichkeiten und Grenzen klimaschutzpolitischer Arrangements in der Metropolregion Hamburg
Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Der drohende Klimawandel wird eine der großen Herausforderungen des 21. Jahrhunderts sein. So lautet das geflügelte Wort , das durch internationale Verhandlungen oder Veröffentlichungen zurzeit einen medialen Höhenflug erlebt. Die weltweit erstarkende Erkenntnis wurde zuletzt durch den UN-IPCC-Report befördert: Der anthropogene Treibhausgas-Ausstoß treibt die Erwärmung des globalen Klimas an und gefährdet das Überleben der Menschheit. Eine Erwärmung um zwei Grad Celsius wird nach Einschätzung der Mehrzahl der Klimatologen einen beschleunigten Verlust der Artenvielfalt, Einbrüche bei der landwirtschaftlichen Produktivität und einen Anstieg des Meeresspie...
The Microtubule Cytoskeleton
This book provides an overview on the organization and function of the microtubule cytoskeleton, which is essential to many cellular processes and profoundly linked to a range of human diseases. Covering basic concepts as well as molecular details, the book discusses how microtubules are nucleated and organized into ordered arrays, at different cell cycle stages and in distinct cell types. In addition, the book highlights how defects in the microtubule cytoskeleton are linked to diseases such as neurodevelopmental disorders. The book is intended for students, graduates and more senior researchers in cell and developmental biology as well as for medical doctors.
