Neuro-oncology
Volume 2: This volume provides unique insights into the field of neuro-oncology by presenting new advancements and research in the study and treatment of tumors of the nervous system, their progression, side effects, and the adverse effects of some therapies. An in-depth exploration of the management of tumors and new therapeutic strategies is extensively covered, including groundbreaking research on gene therapy and molecularly targeted treatments. Clinicians will gain a better understanding of the many neurological manifestations of tumors through a thorough analysis of recent developments in the field, including new diagnostic imaging techniques. In addition, fresh attention to molecular biology, immunology, and other clinical aspects of these types of tumors is presented. [Ed.].
River Science
River Science is a rapidly developing interdisciplinary field at the interface of the natural sciences, engineering and socio-political sciences. It recognises that the sustainable management of contemporary rivers will increasingly require new ways of characterising them to enable engagement with the diverse range of stakeholders. This volume represents the outcome of research by many of the authors and their colleagues over the last 40 years and demonstrates the integral role that River Science now plays in underpinning our understanding of the functioning of natural ecosystems, and how societal demands and historic changes have affected these systems. The book will inform academics, policy makers and society in general of the benefits of healthy functioning riverine systems, and will increase awareness of the wide range of ecosystem goods and services they provide.
Implications of Large-scale Miscanthus Cultivation in Water Protection Areas: a Life Cycle Assessment with Model Coupling for Improved Policy Support
Abstract: Two major global challenges related to agriculture are climate change and the unbalanced nitrogen cycle. For both, national and international reduction targets have been defined to catalyse policy support for more sustainable farming systems. Miscanthus cultivation in water protection areas has been proposed as a contribution to achieving these targets. However, a thorough understanding of the underlying system dynamics at various spatial levels is required before recommendations for policy development can be provided. In this study, a model framework was established to provide economic and environmental indicator results at regional and sub-regional levels. It presents a consequen...
Hydrological Model Simulations of the Rhine Basin and Its Tributaries: Streamflow and Streamflow Components
Umfang und Inhalt: The data contains daily streamflow simulations (Q) and its components (Qsnow and Qice) for the hindcast period (1973-2020) and the future projections (1973-2100), each in a separate file, for gauging station along the river network in the Rhine basin. In each file the first column represents the date and the other columns present the data for the 30 selected gauging stations. For the future projections, there are seven columns for each catchment, corresponding to the seven GCM-RCM climate model projections of the RCP8.5 scenario. The catchment IDs used as header of the columns can be found in the metadata file, with further information about the catchments. Furthermore, the metadata file presents an overview of the climate model forcing
Stress-test Storyline Simulations of the Rhine Basin: Streamflow and Streamflow Components
Abstract: These research data belong to the publication "Melting alpine water towers aggravate downstream low flows: a stress-test storyline approach". The research is part of the ASG-II project 'Impact of climate change on the rain, snow and glacier melt components of streamflow of the river Rhine and its tributaries' funded through the International Commission for the Hydrology of the Rhine Basin (CHR-KHR) and a final project report is available through the organisation's website https://www.chr-khr.org/ as Report No. I-28 (ISBN 978-90-70980-43-6). The data includes hydrological model simulations of total streamflow (Q), and the streamflow components of snowmelt (Qsnow) and glacier ice melt (Qice) during stress-test storyline scenarios. In these scenarios, meteorological conditions of past drought and low flow years in Europe (1976, 2003 and 2018), were repeated at three future moments in time, representing nowadays, near future and far future conditions
Forest Hydrology and Biogeochemistry
This international rigorously peer-reviewed volume critically synthesizes current knowledge in forest hydrology and biogeochemistry. It is a one-stop comprehensive reference tool for researchers and practitioners in the fields of hydrology, biogeoscience, ecology, forestry, boundary-layer meteorology, and geography. Following an introductory chapter tracing the historical roots of the subject, the book is divided into the following main sections: · Sampling and Novel Approaches · Forest Hydrology and Biogeochemistry by Ecoregion and Forest Type · Hydrologic and Biogeochemical Fluxes from the Canopy to the Phreatic Surface · Hydrologic and Biogeochemical Fluxes in Forest Ecosystems: Effects of Time, Stressors, and Humans The volume concludes with a final chapter that reflects on the current state of knowledge and identifies some areas in need of further research.
