Mudflat Ecology
Intertidal mudflats are distinct, highly-productive marine habitats which provide important ecosystem services to the land-sea interface. In contrast to other marine habitats, and despite a large body of primary scientific literature, no comprehensive synthesis exists, such that the scattered knowledge base lacks an integrated conceptual framework. We attempt to provide this synthesis by pulling together and contextualizing the different disciplines, tools, and approaches used in the study of intertidal mudflats. The editor pays particular attention to relationships between the various components of the synthesis, both at the conceptual and the operational levels, validating these relationships through close interaction with the various authors.
EU Standards in Witness Protection and Collaboration with Justice
This book presents the results of a study conducted for the European Commission, aimed at preparing legislative European initiative in the areas of both procedural and non-procedural witness protection and collaboration with justice. Already the March 2000 Strategy for the beginning of the new millennium, on the prevention and control of organised crime, had called for such initiative. The book 'EU standards on witness protection and collaboration with justice' contains well-balanced proposals for three new framework decisions regarding respectively anonymous witnesses, collaborators with justice and protected witnesses. This book is essential reading for policy makers, judicia (and law enforcement authorities throughout the European Union or from a broader international context. lt wilt be appealing also to researchers and anyone involved or taking an interest in witness or victim protection and/or combating (cross-border) crime at European or international level.

Metacommunity Ecology, Volume 59
Metacommunity ecology links smaller-scale processes that have been the provenance of population and community ecology—such as birth-death processes, species interactions, selection, and stochasticity—with larger-scale issues such as dispersal and habitat heterogeneity. Until now, the field has focused on evaluating the relative importance of distinct processes, with niche-based environmental sorting on one side and neutral-based ecological drift and dispersal limitation on the other. This book moves beyond these artificial categorizations, showing how environmental sorting, dispersal, ecological drift, and other processes influence metacommunity structure simultaneously.

Architectured Materials in Nature and Engineering
This book deals with a group of architectured materials. These are hybrid materials in which the constituents (even strongly dissimilar ones) are combined in a given topology and geometry to provide otherwise conflicting properties. The hybridization presented in the book occurs at various levels - from the molecular to the macroscopic (say, sub-centimeter) ones. This monograph represents a collection of programmatic chapters, defining archimats and summarizing the results obtained by using the geometry-inspired materials design. The area of architectured or geometry-inspired materials has reached a certain level of maturity and visibility for a comprehensive presentation in book form. It is...

Interactive Storytelling
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th InternationalConference on Interactive Digital Storytelling, ICIDS 2015, held in Copenhagen, Denmark, in November/December 2015. The 18 revised full papers and 13 short papers presented together with 9posters, 9 workshop descriptions, and 3 demonstration papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 80 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections ontheoretical and design foundations, technical advances, analyses and evaluation systems, and current and future usage scenarios and applications.
Sustainable Lignin for Carbon Fibers: Principles, Techniques, and Applications
This book is designed to provide wide understanding of lignin carbon fiber processes, chemistry, mechanisms, and techniques that will help in further development of lignin carbon fiber for automobile, aerospace, marine, and sports equipment applications. Each step in the processing of lignin carbon fibers is presented as a separate chapter so that issues concerning the processes are exhaustively discussed. Basic scientific principles governing each stage of lignin carbon fiber processing, current state of research and mechanisms behind the processes are illustrated for better understanding. This is the first book to address the entire scope of lignin carbon fiber processing including; extrac...
