Aromatic and Medicinal Plants of Drylands and Deserts
The description and analysis of the Mexican and other countries desertic plants from the point of view of their use in traditional medicine and their potential use in integrative medicine is the overall theme of this book. Aromatic and Medicinal Plants of Drylands and Deserts: Ecology, Ethnobiology and Potential Uses describes the historic use of drylands plants, botanical and geological classification, also describes the endemic plants used in traditional medicine, going through the most relevant aspects of biomedicine and integrative medicine. The chemical and bioactive compounds from desertic medicinal and aromatic plants and the analytic techniques to determine chemical and bioactive com...
Biodiversidad y ecología mexicana
La compilación presenta información actual sobre temas de diversidad biológica y ecología de especies relevantes en términos de conservación, así como aspectos de uso sustentable de recursos naturales. La diversidad biológica comprende el cúmulo de organismos vivos considerando todos los niveles de su organización (genes, poblaciones, especies, comunidades, hábitats, ecosistemas y paisajes). Por su parte, la ecología busca comprender las relaciones que existen entre los organismos y los elementos bióticos y abióticos en su medio ambiente. Ambas líneas de investigación se encuentran estrechamente relacionadas y conforman la base para el aprovechamiento adecuado de los recursos naturales disponibles.
Avances en el estudio de islas de calor urbano en América Latina
El presente libro constituye una ambiciosa recopilación del conocimiento sobre clima urbano en nuestra lengua castellana y refleja el estado del arte en el primer cuarto del siglo XXI en América Latina. Es una compilación sistemática y de acceso libre que constituye desde ya un aporte relevante al conocimiento científico disponible en nuestra región. Los editores han sido capaces de compilar un abanico diverso y rico de trabajos realizados en nueve ciudades en cuatro países de Latinoamérica, reuniendo a una comunidad que incluye a treinta y nueve autores que han investigado el clima urbano en la región, describiendo sus características y consecuencias algunos desde hace décadas.
Nemrud Dagi
This richly illustrated book presents in detail the sanctuaries built during the reign of Antiochus I of Commagene (ca. 75-36 BCE), including the three large tombs and ten cult places, and discusses Antiochus’ rule in the context of his religious program and cult of the divine ruler. This book is the final publication of the results of the International Nemrud Daği Project 2001–2003.
Biomass Conversion
The consumption of petroleum has surged during the 20th century, at least partially because of the rise of the automobile industry. Today, fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas provide more than three quarters of the world's energy. Unfortunately, the growing demand for fossil fuel resources comes at a time of diminishing reserves of these nonrenewable resources. The worldwide reserves of oil are sufficient to supply energy and chemicals for only about another 40 years, causing widening concerns about rising oil prices. The use of biomass to produce energy is only one form of renewable energy that can be utilized to reduce the impact of energy production and use on the global envir...
VIII Latin American Conference on Biomedical Engineering and XLII National Conference on Biomedical Engineering
This book gathers the joint proceedings of the VIII Latin American Conference on Biomedical Engineering (CLAIB 2019) and the XLII National Conference on Biomedical Engineering (CNIB 2019). It reports on the latest findings and technological outcomes in the biomedical engineering field. Topics include: biomedical signal and image processing; biosensors, bioinstrumentation and micro-nanotechnologies; biomaterials and tissue engineering. Advances in biomechanics, biorobotics, neurorehabilitation, medical physics and clinical engineering are also discussed. A special emphasis is given to practice-oriented research and to the implementation of new technologies in clinical settings. The book provides academics and professionals with extensive knowledge on and a timely snapshot of cutting-edge research and developments in the field of biomedical engineering.
Advances in Soft Computing
The two-volume set LNAI 13067 and 13068 constitutes the proceedings of the 20th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2021, held in Mexico City, Mexico, in October 2021. The total of 58 papers presented in these two volumes was carefully reviewed and selected from 129 submissions. The first volume, Advances in Computational Intelligence, contains 30 papers structured into three sections: – Machine and Deep Learning – Image Processing and Pattern Recognition – Evolutionary and Metaheuristic Algorithms The second volume, Advances in Soft Computing, contains 28 papers structured into two sections: – Natural Language Processing – Intelligent Applications and Robotics
The Leatherback Turtle
The most comprehensive book ever written on leatherback sea turtles. Weighing as much as 2,000 pounds and reaching lengths of over seven feet, leatherback turtles are the world’s largest reptile. These unusual sea turtles have a thick, pliable shell that helps them to withstand great depths—they can swim more than one thousand meters below the surface in search of food. And what food source sustains these goliaths? Their diet consists almost exclusively of jellyfish, a meal they crisscross the oceans to find. Leatherbacks have been declining in recent decades, and some predict they will be gone by the end of this century. Why? Because of two primary factors: human redevelopment of nestin...
Micro y macrodiversidad: estudios de vanguardia en México
Sabemos que afrontamos una triple crisis (cambio climático, pérdida de biodiversidad y contaminación ambiental) que traerá graves consecuencias para la humanidad si no tomamos medidas urgentes y realizamos cambios transformadores en lo que producimos y consumimos, así como en la gestión gubernamental. En este contexto, es necesario seguir generando información sobre la diversidad biológica, el estado actual de los recursos naturales y acciones que requieren una pronta remediación. El presente libro reúne trabajos sobre biodiversidad genética y de especies, a nivel macro y microscópico, así como investigaciones de aspectos ecológicos, fisiológicos y morfométricos de especies animales y vegetales de importancia para México. El objetivo es brindar una perspectiva de los temas que actualmente se analizan en beneficio de la conservación y el uso racional de nuestros recursos naturales.
