Water is one of the most critical resources of nature that is necessary for sustaining life for all living things. This volume discusses in detail a selection of geospatial approaches, tools, and techniques for understanding the root causes behind the degradation of our water resources. Satellite remote sensing provides essential data for mapping water resources, hydrology flux measurement, monitoring drought, and flood inundation. With an abundance of informative case studies, this volume discusses the use of the satellite remote sensing and GIS-based systems for managing urban storm water; for flood and soil erosion management; for mapping groundwater zones; for crop production, including measuring soil moisture and aridity; for gauging the impact of climate change; for evaluating glacier change dynamics; for assessing the impact of urban growth on water resources; for measuring the degradation of rivers; and more.
Ganit Mathematics series consists of seven textbooks; two textbooks for Primer A, B and five textbooks for classes 1–5. The textbooks meet the requirements of the latest ICSE syllabus. The series has been developed to guide the young minds to observe and experience mathematics all around them. Each concept has been related to everyday life in order to develop a spirit of curiosity and discovery. Concepts are gradually built up with easy-to-follow steps and plenty of examples.
Biologists are stepping up their efforts in understanding the biological processes that underlie disease pathways in the clinical contexts. This has resulted in a flood of biological and clinical data from genomic and protein sequences, DNA microarrays, protein interactions, biomedical images, to disease pathways and electronic health records. To exploit these data for discovering new knowledge that can be translated into clinical applications, there are fundamental data analysis difficulties that have to be overcome. Practical issues such as handling noisy and incomplete data, processing compute-intensive tasks, and integrating various data sources, are new challenges faced by biologists in the post-genome era. This book will cover the fundamentals of state-of-the-art data mining techniques which have been designed to handle such challenging data analysis problems, and demonstrate with real applications how biologists and clinical scientists can employ data mining to enable them to make meaningful observations and discoveries from a wide array of heterogeneous data from molecular biology to pharmaceutical and clinical domains.
Pharaoh and the King, is the glory of a man who achieved the greater altitudes by saving the world from the hands of iniquity, which takes you back in time of Ancient civilizations, a time of Mystery, Adventure, Menace, righteousness, and to the world of supernatural truths, that reveals the occults beyond
This volume is based on a meeting of the Fondation IPSEN, held in Paris on Sep tember 18, 1995 to address the main issues of nervous system stem cells biology. Cell replacement in the adult mammals is not unusual outside the nervous sys tem. In fact, the nervous system is unique in lacking the ability to replace cells, following damage. Most neurons, in the adult central nervous system are termin of the organism and are not replaced ally differentiated, exist through the life when they die. There are, however, regions of the postnatal brain that continue to produce new neurons, but the fate and longevity of those cells are not well known. Evidence exists that small populations of neurons con...

The Economics of Talent Management and Human Capital is an academic book that offers a comprehensive overview of the concept of talent and its relationship with human capital and creativity. Written by leading experts in the field, the book highlights the shift in the US economy towards valuing talent, resulting in growing income inequality. The book proposes critical steps to address this issue: talent acquisition departments must lower expectations and practice self-discipline, investors should prioritize value creation over short-term gains, and the government must regulate the relationship between hedge funds and pension funds, tax carried interest as ordinary income, and revisit the ove...
Based on the much-praised The World's Major Languages, this is the first comprehensive guide in paperback to describe the development, grammar sound and writing system, and sociological factors of the major language families in these areas.
