This book describes the different tools that have been developed during the last decades to explain how scientists study volcanoes. It takes into consideration volcanology as being a complex field at the interface between geology, geochemistry and geophysics and...
Shock waves are strong pressure waves of irreversible processes in elastic media such as gas, liquid, or solid, generated by supersonic aircraft, explosions, or other phenomena that create rapid changes in pressure. The ISSW34 proceedings cover theoretical,...
This book provides a comprehensive overview of circular RNAs (circRNAs), a novel class of non-coding RNAs with diverse regulatory roles and clinical relevance. Covering recent advances in circRNA biogenesis, molecular mechanisms, computational tools, and disease...
This book covers detailed accounts of viral, bacterial and fungal diseases affecting shrimp, finfish and molluscan aquaculture. It also discusses different aquatic animal health management measures such as disease diagnostics, biosecurity, bioremediation, and...
This book provides insights into the challenges of military operations under extreme climatic conditions. Divided into 3 sections, the book covers the impact of extreme environments from high altitude areas to desert terrain, forest conditions, and the marine...
This book provides an introduction to 2D materials, their current fabrication techniques, and characterization. It focuses on the wide applications of 2D materials in electromagnetic shielding applications, high power sensors, electrochemical energy storage,...
This book covers the quantification of forests, grasslands, and woodlands ecosystem services from the supply side (e.g., regulatory and provisioning services) to the demand side, including human cultural needs. The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA, 2005) defines...
This book focuses on the development of functional nucleic acids and their applications of molecular detection methods in the context of food safety. The book has been expanded to 24 chapters based on the first edition including five newly-added chapters, of which...
This book provides an historical and philosophical overview of Western medicine along with commentary about how past principles affect current problems in biomedicine like genetic engineering, transhumanism, and a commitment to environmentalism. The book spans Ancient,...
This book highlights how superconductor detectors that replace conventional detectors, such as semiconductor detectors and secondary electron multipliers, can overcome the fundamental limitations of certain analytical instruments. As an educational guide to students...
This book outlines organometallic compounds (OMCs) in the marine environment, focusing on their analytical and ecological aspects. Divided into 6 chapters, the authors discuss OMCs' occurrence, chemical structure, and environmental impact of OMCs in aquatic...
This book is a fast-paced account supported by striking, compelling renderings of how spaceflight has been forever changed since NASA heralded the Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (COTS) program on January 18th, 2006. Spaceflight was once a clunky affair,...
This informative book discusses the issue of microplastic pollution in marine environments. It explains the intricate ways in which these minuscule particles have crept into the world's oceans, impacting marine life, ecosystems, and, ultimately, human health. The book...
This comprehensive volume offers an in-depth exploration of the latest advancements in omics technologies and their practical applications across environmental science, agriculture, healthcare, and biotechnology. Covering key topics such as metagenomics for identifying...
This book covers secondary natural products in foods and food systems. It presents their production (biosynthesis and storage), biological function in the producing organism, biological availability and effect on consuming organisms. Chapters will also cover the...
This book reviews a few different derivations of the Hawking radiation, most main solutions to the paradox proposed in the literature, and some analog laboratory experiments. A black hole is an object whose gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape...
This book presents an overview of the techniques available today to remove arsenic contamination, pollutants, and species from water. Traditionally applied techniques for removal of arsenic pollutants/species, including oxidation, coagulation-flocculation, and membrane...
This thesis explores a fundamental question in field theory: If we modify a theory by introducing a small parameter, can we recover the original theory by setting that parameter back to zero? While seemingly simple, this question presents a major challenge in gauge...
Skeletal muscle is not an organ merely for locomotion with simple anatomical and metabolic features as has been viewed for a long time. The understanding that physical activity plays a vital role in health promotion and disease prevention under the slogan of...
How life can emerge in a lifeless environment is one of the major open scientific challenges. This book pays particular attention to self-organization phenomena that might have led to the appearance of the first protocells, i.e. cell-like structures, much simpler than...
