Early Continent Evolution of the North China Craton discusses the tectono-thermal regimes of the early continental crust in the North China Craton (NCC) from the Hadean to the early Paleoproterozoic, reconstructing the evolutional framework, and facilitating comprehensive understanding of the early continent evolution of the NCC.
Considers the role of fertiliser use in agriculture as a major contributor to the imbalance of the global nitrogen cycle Reviews the effectiveness of inorganic nitrogen fertilisers and organic sources of nitrogen in optimising nitrogen use efficiency Highlights recent developments in the use of enhanced efficiency nitrogen fertilisers to reduce nitrous oxide emissions
This book studies mountains with a global perspective, like a complex topographic and topoclimatic mosaic organized in altitudinal belts that are influenced by a huge variability in slopes, soils, lithology and insolation.
This book summarizes recent impressive improvements in the application of Quantum Mechanics, coupled with the significant increase in both speed and storage capabilities of modern computers, that allow to depict the energy and reactive properties of chemically complex materials through first principles and destroy the dogmatic assumption that the natural complexity cannot be modeled.
This is the first of three Books that together provide an integrated picture of the Aegean Sea, presenting the natural components of the system (Book I and Book II) as well as the human presence in the extended area (Book III).
