Assessment and Governance of Sustainable Soil Management
The role of soils for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals is multifarious. Soils are the essential basis for food and biomass provision in support of food security (SDG 2) and energy security (SDG 7). Soil carbon sequestration is paramount for climate action (SDG 13). Soil-mediated water purification and retention, nutrient and matter cycling, and soils habitat functions are essential for maintaining ecosystem services and biodiversity (SDG 15). Healthy soils perform well in all these functions simultaneously. However, the globally increasing demand for food, fiber, and bio-based products poses massive challenges to soil health. Minimizing trade-offs between biomass production and so...

Transactions of the International Astronomical Union
The XXth General Assembly of the International Astronomical Union was held in Baltimore, Maryland USA from August 02 to 11, 1988. The Inaugural Ceremony on August 02 was held in the presence of representatives of the United States Governn:ent, t~e S~ate of Maryland, the City of Baltimore and the host institution -the Johns Hopkins Umverslty- as well as of the National and Local Organising Committees. The scientific programme maintained the high standards of the Union and the scientific proceedings may be found either in this volume or in volume 8 of Highlights of Astronomy. The scientific programme was organised by the 40 Commission Presidents and coordinated by the General Secretary (1985-1988), Dr. J.-P. Swings. The local arrangements were effectively made through the National Organising Committee under the Chairmanship of Prof. F. Drake and the Local Organising Committee under the co-Chairmanship of Prof. A. Oavidsen and Dr. R. Giacconi. The smooth day to day operation of the meeting resulted from the incomparable dedication of Karen Weinstock and Harold Screen.
Suburra
Fast-paced crime thriller set in Rome: Gomorrah meets House of Cards Criminals on the rise and senior members of the Italian mafia clash in and around Rome over the backing of an urban development bill that promises to turn the seaside town of Ostia into a gambling paradise. The problems plaguing the political system of contemporary Italy are played out against this florid, cinematic background. Before the end of Berlusconi's days, a massive real estate development bill that will bury the city's outskirts under tons of cement remains on the floor in the Italian parliament. Ostia, a small dot of a town on the coast, could become Italy's equivalent of Las Vegas with the passing of this renewal...
Spectroscopic Properties of Inorganic and Organometallic Compounds
Spectroscopic Properties of Inorganic and Organometallic Compounds provides a unique source of information on an important area of chemistry. Divided into sections mainly according to the particular spectroscopic technique used, coverage in each volume includes: NMR (with reference to stereochemistry, dynamic systems, paramagnetic complexes, solid state NMR and Groups 13-18); nuclear quadrupole resonance spectroscopy; vibrational spectroscopy of main group and transition element compounds and coordinated ligands; and electron diffraction. Reflecting the growing volume of published work in this field, researchers will find this Specialist Periodical Report an invaluable source of information on current methods and applications. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading experts in their specialist fields, this series is designed to help the chemistry community keep current with the latest developments in their field. Each volume in the series is published either annually or biennially and is a superb reference point for researchers. www.rsc.org/spr
Basic Principles and Practice in Surgery
This publication aims to support young doctors and surgery residents during their training period. A surgical residency is a crucial period for a young doctor. A great volume of theoretical information along with difficult and demanding practical skills need to be acquired in a relatively short period of time. This book is a tool for rapid, correct acquisition of elementary surgical notions and techniques, which are the basis for the training of today's surgery resident.
Advancement of Phenolic Acids in Drug Discovery
Advancement of Phenolic Acids in Drug Discovery: Fundamental and Applications offers comprehensive coverage of the ADMET profiles of phenolic acids, their extraction method and prospects for drug design and development. Chapters overview phenolic acids and their characterization, discuss the role of phenolic acids in plant systems, present sources and detailed extraction methods of phenolic acids, and cover phenolic acid mechanisms of action as it relates to several key diseases and health conditions, including their role as antioxidant agents, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, anti-microbial drugs, anti-viral drugs, anti-cancer drugs, diabetes and metabolic dysfunctions, neurological d...
California Amphibian and Reptile Species of Special Concern
One of the most important hotspots of herpetological biodiversity in the United States, California is home to many endemic amphibians and reptiles found nowhere else on earth. Many of these taxa have unique ecological and morphological specializations, and their management is an important conservation challenge. Increasing climate change impacts, human development, and extreme drought mean many of these species face an ever-greater risk of extinction. California Amphibian and Reptile Species of Special Concern provides an up-to-date synthesis of the current state of knowledge regarding the biology and conservation risks faced by 45 of California’s most sensitive amphibian and reptile speci...
