It makes no difference whether global warming is or is not a "e;human-caused"e; condition, because it is only human-caused action that will mediate its effects.
The Church's New Front Door introduces Christians to the critically important concept of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, an era that will be dominated by powerful technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced robotics.
Handbook of Optimization in Medicine is devoted to examining the dramatic increase in the application of effective optimization techniques to the delivery of health care.
This book explores recent developments in QIA and describes the application of the theory to different branches of wave physics, from plasma physics, quantum physics, and ionospheric radio wave propagation to acoustics, optics, and astrophysics.
Stopping Cross-Sections for Energetic Ions in All Elements shows the stopping cross-sections of energetic ions in various elements in both solid and gas phase targets.
The Mjolnir impact structure was recognized in 1993 and included in the Earth Impact Database in 1996, based on the discoveries of unequivocal meteorite impact indicators such as shocked quartz, Ir-enrichments, possible glass remnants, fragments of nickel-rich iron oxides, in addition to the convincing complex crater shape of the structure.
The optical properties of semiconductors have played an important role since the identification of semiconductors as "e;small"e; bandgap materials in the thinies, due both to their fundamental interest as a class of solids baving specific optical propenies and to their many important applications.
Blending control theory, mechanics, geometry and the calculus of variations, this book is a vital resource for graduates and researchers in engineering, mathematics and physics.
