Peatland Restoration and Ecosystem Services
An interdisciplinary book tackling the challenges of managing peatlands and their ecosystem services in the face of climate change.
Climate Change
This collection of papers is introduced by an overview of research into climate change. Each volume contains an introductory commentary presenting the major strengths and achievements of the papers, their weaknesses and limitations and points to follow-up work.
Grasses and Grassland Ecology
This book is the most up to date and thorough account of the natural history of the plants that comprise the most important food crop on Earth, the grasses and grasslands.
New Directions in the Study of China's Foreign Policy
Ten outstanding specialists in Chinese foreign policy draw on new theories, methods, and sources to examine China's use of force, its response to globalization, and the role of domestic politics in its foreign policy.

Boreal Peatland Ecosystems
This is the first truly ecosystem-oriented book on peatlands. It adopts an ecosystems approach to understanding the world's boreal peatlands. The focus is on biogeochemical patterns and processes, production, decomposition, and peat accumulation, and it provides additional information on animal and fungal diversity. A recurring theme is the legacy of boreal peatlands as impressive accumulators of carbon as peat over millennia.
Linguistic and Genetic (mtDNA) Connections between Native Peoples of Alaska and California
Linguistic and Genetic (mtDNA) Connections between Native Peoples of Alaska and California: Ancient Mariners of the Middle Holocene traces the linguistic and biological connections between contemporary Aleut people of southwest Alaska and historic Utian people of central California. During the Middle Holocene Period, Aleut and Utian languages diverged from their common parent language, Proto-Aleut-Utian (PAU), spoken by people who resided on or near Kodiak Island in coastal southwest Alaska. Around the time of divergence, Utians departed the PAU homeland, migrating by watercraft along the eastern Pacific coast to the San Francisco Bay Area. The affiliation between Aleut and Utian languages i...
Hydraulic Engineering
Hydraulic Engineering contains 56 technical papers from the 2012 SREE Conference on Hydraulic Engineering (CHE 2012, Hong Kong, 21-22 December 2012, including the second SREE Workshop on Environment and Safety, WESE 2012). The conference served as a major forum for researchers, engineers and manufacturers to share recent advances, discuss problems, and identify challenges associated with engineering applications in hydraulic engineering, and the contributions showcase recent developments in the areas of hydraulic engineering and environmental engineering. The sections on hydraulic engineering mainly focus on flood prediction and control, hydropower design and construction technology, water and environment, comprehensive water treatment, and urban water supply and drainage, while the contributions related to environmental issues focus on environmental prediction and control techniques in environmental geoscience, environmental ecology, atmospheric sciences, ocean engineering, safety engineering and environmental pollution control. Hydraulic Engineering will be invaluable to academics and professionals in both hydraulic and environmental engineering.
