Natural Heritage from East to West
Cumulative global transformations, occurring daily, affect important aspects of our life. Characteristic cultural and natural heritage, including sites of priceless value, is under constant threat. There are growing pressures, of both natural and human origin, such as wars, con icts, natural or technological disasters and the effects of global climate change. These provoke the continuous degradation of many sites included in the World Heritage List. In consequence, immediate strategic measures must be taken. Natural heritage is our legacy from the past, that we inherited from our ancestors and pass on to future generations. It is vital to realize its value and protect it by all possible mean...
Advances in Information Processing and Protection
This book contains a selection of the best papers given at an international conference on advanced computer systems. The Advanced Computer Systems Conference was held in October 2006, in Miedzyzdroje, Poland. The book is organized into four topical areas: Artificial Intelligence; Computer Security and Safety; Image Analysis, Graphics and Biometrics; and Computer Simulation and Data Analysis.
From Present to Past Through Landscape
Este volumen es el resultado de las colaboraciones científicas internacionales iniciadas o desarrolladas en el seno de una red europea de investigación, la Acción COST A27 Understanding preindustrial structures in rural and mining landscapes (LANDMARKS). Esta comunidad académica trata de contribuir a la construcción de un campo de estudios sobre paisajes culturales, interdisciplinares y socialmente relevantes.
Mapping Geomorphological Environments
Mapping Geomorphological Environments is a highly descriptive textbook providing an excellent introduction to the latest methodologies for mapping geomorphological formations in a variety of different environments. Its holistic approach seeks to provide a meaningful linkage between state of the art techniques for geomorphological mapping, including the latest innovations in geospatial applications, and advances in the understanding of the formation of geomorphological phenomena in a variety of settings and environments. The book includes: - An introduction to the processes which form geomorphological formations and how to map them. - Case studies from a variety of environments with many exam...
Enhanced Methods in Computer Security, Biometric and Artificial Intelligence Systems
Enhanced Methods in Computer Security, Biometric and Artificial Intelligence Systems contains over 30 contributions from leading European researchers showing the present state and future directions of computer science research. "Methods of Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Agents" contains 13 contributions analyzing such areas of AI as fuzzy set theory, predicate logic, neural networks, clustering, data mining and others. It also presents applications of AI as possible solutions for problems like firm bankruptcy, soil erosion, flight control and others. "Information Technology Security" covers three important areas of security engineering in information systems: software security, public key infrastructure and the design of new cryptographic protocols and algorithms. "Biometric Systems" comprises 11 contributions dealing with face picture analysis and recognition systems. This chapter focuses on known methods of biometric problem solution as well as the design of new models.
2Bparks MAINSTREAM
Knjiga 2Bparks MAINSTREAM je zaključna publikacija mednarodnega projekta Creative Sustainable Management, Territorial Compatible Marketing and Environmental Education to be Parks (2Bparks), ki je trajal od 1. 7. 2010 do 30. 6. 2013. Projekt je z vključevanjem okoljskih vsebin v procese odločanja, razvojem trajnostnega turizma in ozaveščanjem prispeval k trajnostni rabi naravnih virov ter h krepitvi povezav med družbami, gospodarstvi in zavarovanimi območji.V publikaciji so predstavljeni glavni rezultati projekta, s posebnim poudarkom na njegovi nadnacionalni razsežnosti, podana pa so tudi priporočila za trajnostno upravljanje in načrtovanje zavarovanih območij v prihodnje.Projekt 2Bparks je bil sofinanciran iz Evropskega sklada za regionalni razvoj v okviru programa MEDITERAN.
Coastal Deposits: Environmental Implications, Mathematical Modeling and Technological Development
This Special Issue on "Coastal Deposits: Environmental Implications, Mathematical Modeling, and Technological Development" includes seven high-quality, innovative research papers dealing with many scientific aspects regarding the coast, through mathematical modelling and innovative techniques in the study and preservation of the coastline from erosion, such as coastal watch camera installations, remote sensing, the use of biocementation, or analytical techniques, to assess incompatibilities in the sustainable use of the coast, including worrying issues as pollution of the marine environment and ecosystem deterioration.
Climate and Anthropogenic Impacts on Earth Surface Processes in the Anthropocene
Climate and Anthropogenic Impacts on Earth Surface Processes in the Anthropocene outlines our current understanding of the effects of ongoing and accelerated environmental changes on Earth surface processes and details the systematic and quantitative methodology on the actual drivers of these processes. This book covers various geomorphological process domains and a wide range of terrestrial surface environments on Earth. It provides a broad spectrum of advanced techniques and methods of data collection and generation, together with various approaches and methods of data analysis and geomorphologic modelling.This book is a valuable resource for upper-level undergraduates, graduates, and acad...
Geoinformation Technologies for Geo-Cultural Landscapes: European Perspectives
The focal main objective of the book is to constitute a meaningful linkage among research problems, geoinformation methods and corresponding applications. The research goals, related both to theoretical and practical issues, derive from multidisciplinary fields such as archaeology, history, geography, landscape planning, environment, geoinformation
Urban Flood Management
Along with windstorms, floods are the most common and widespread of all natural disasters. Although they can often be predicted, they cause loss of life, damage and destruction, as many urban communities are located near coasts and rivers. In terms of victims, floods are responsible for more than half the deaths caused by natural catastrophes. As f
