INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE on FRONTIERS of ENVIRONMENT, ENERGY and BIOSCIENCE
We cordially invite you to attend 2013 International Conference on Frontiers of Environment, Energy and Bioscience (ICFEEB 2013), which will be held in Beijing, China during October 24–25, 2013. The main objective of ICFEEB 2013 is to provide a platform for researchers, engineers, academicians as well as industrial professionals from all over the world to present their research results and development activities in Environment, Energy and Bioscience. This conference provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and experiences face to face, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration. ICFEEB 2013 received over 400 submis...
Spark from the Deep
How encounters with strongly electric fish informed our grasp of electricity. Spark from the Deep tells the story of how human beings came to understand and use electricity by studying the evolved mechanisms of strongly electric fish. These animals have the ability to shock potential prey or would-be predators with high-powered electrical discharges. William J. Turkel asks completely fresh questions about the evolutionary, environmental, and historical aspects of people’s interest in electric fish. Stimulated by painful encounters with electric catfish, torpedos, and electric eels, people learned to harness the power of electric shock for medical therapies and eventually developed technologies to store, transmit, and control electricity. Now we look to these fish as an inspiration for engineering new sensors, computer interfaces, autonomous undersea robots, and energy-efficient batteries.
The Living Marine Resources of the Western Central Pacific
This series of identification guides provide information on the species of interest to fisheries of the major marine resource groups exploited in the Western Central Pacific region. Information is arranged according to higher taxonomic levels such as class, order and family, with species in the important families treated in detail. This volume covers species from Labridae to Latimeriidae, which relate to estuarine crocodiles, sea turtles, sea snakes and marine mammals.
