The project CLEAN (CO2 Large-Scale Enhanced Gas Recovery in the Altmark Natural Gas Field) provides site specific knowledge for a potential future pilot project.
This thesis adopts the relative back-projection method to dramatically reduce "e;swimming"e; artifacts by identifying the rupture fronts in the time window of a reference station; this led to a faster and more accurate image of the rupture processes of earthquakes.
This text serves as a comprehensive guide to understand the critical role that diverse edible plants play in promoting health, sustainability and food security.
This book explores the complex relationship between wildlife conservation and agriculture in Africa, with a focus on advancing the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 15 (Life on Land) and SDG 2 (Zero Hunger).
Este libro analiza tres casos de litigios en materia de justicia ambiental y cambio climático, con enfoque de derechos humanos, en los que ha participado Dejusticia: (i) la acción de tutela que presentó la comunidad raizal de Providencia, en el archipiélago de San Andrés Islas, por el desastre natural debido al paso del huracán Iota; (ii) la sentencia que logró el pueblo de Orika en Islas del Rosario, en el Caribe Colombiano, y que ha dado lugar a la protección de su territorio colectivo y a la preservación de su ecosistema marítimo —maritorio—, el cual es especialmente vulnerable frente a los efectos del cambio climático; y (iii) el caso de la tutela para la protección de la Amazonía ante la afectación que implica la deforestación a los derechos de las generaciones - presentes y futuras - frente a los impactos del cambio climático.

This book brings together environmental scientists and engineers to discuss the development of new approaches and methodologies which utilize microalgae for biological wastewater treatment.
Plastics widespread use and ease of disposal after a single use mean they accumulate rapidly in landfills and the environment, often ending up in wastewater systems.
Molecular biological techniques such as DNA/RNA extraction and purification, and especially the polymerase chain reaction, PCR, are rapidly gaining interest also in related fields, such as microbiology or environmental sciences.
Das Buch spannt den Bogen zwischen der "akademischen" Ethik und den Anwendungsproblemen und -bedingungen in der Technikgestaltung und sollte von daher sowohl für Theoretiker als auch für Praktiker von Interesse sein.
In the context of conducting research on the consequences of scientific and tech- nological advance, the Europaische Akademie is also concerned with the support of scientists in the doctoral or post-doctoral phase who are working on topics or methods within its research spectrum.
Im Rahmen dieser Studie werden aus naturwissenschaftlich-medizinischer, soziologischer, ökonomischer, juristischer und philosophischer Perspektive Notwendigkeit, Realisierbarkeit und Konsequenzen von Umweltstandards für kombinierte Expositionen untersucht.
One way to shape technology and its embedding in society in the 21st century is through the visions that guide their development, especially concerning the long-term societal perspective.
Die menschliche Gesellschaft ist durch moderne wissenschaftliche Verfahren der Klimamodellierung in der Lage, Vorhersagen des zukünftigen Klimas zu treffen.
This book collects a selection of the best articles presented at the CUPUM (Computers in Urban Planning and Urban Management) conference, held in the second week of July 2013 in Utrecht, the Netherlands.
High Interstitial Stainless Austenitic Steels is of interest to all engineers and resaerchers working with stainless steel, either at universities or R&D departments in Industry.
The project CLEAN (CO2 Large-Scale Enhanced Gas Recovery in the Altmark Natural Gas Field) provides site specific knowledge for a potential future pilot project.
Dynamics of astrophysical systems is often described by plasma physics, yet understanding the nature of plasma turbulence remains as a challenge in physics in both theories and experiments.
As evidenced dramatically and tragically in 2011 alone,earthquakes cause devastation and their consequences in terms of human suffering and economic disaster can last for years or even decades.
The impact of anthropogenic activities on our atmospheric environment is of growing public concern and satellite-based techniques now provide an essential component of observational strategies on regional and global scales.
Improving the reliability of long-range forecasts of natural disasters, such as severe weather, droughts and floods, in North America, South America, Africa and the Asian/Australasian monsoon regions is of vital importance to the livelihood of millions of people who are affected by these events.
