English | 2021 | ISBN: 9811648727 | 485 pages | pdf, epub | 46.26 MB This book emphasizes and presents the latest information on eco-physiology and biochemistry of cyanobacteria with special emphasis on their biodiversity, molecular mechanisms of some important biological processes and survival mechanisms under myriad of environmental conditions as well as bioremediation. Cyanobacteria are the most dominant prokaryotic floras on the Earth's surface, and are of great importance in terms of ecological, economical and evolutionary perspectives. They are oldest groups of photosynthetic autotrophs, which create oxygenic atmosphere for the development and sustainability of ecosystems with different life forms. The book presents an integrative approach to their possible biotechnological application in the field of bio-energy and various aspects of biochemistry, biophysics and structural biology of photosynthesis. The various chapters describe the different applications of cyanobacteria as bio-energy sources and in phycoremediation.

Nowadays, these wooden objects often are replaced by plastic resulting in a limited lifespan as a standard. How delightful it is when an old chisel finds its way into your hands at a garage sale, its handle polished by touch and its frayed end telling of heavy use. That is exactly the feeling this book wants to convey - to recall and revive forgotten utensils!

English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030858286 | 347 pages | True PDF EPUB | 62.58 MB Earth Systems Protection and Sustainability qualifies imperatives and discusses the use of mathematical approaches to assess and achieve sustainability in threatened and vulnerable Earth systems globally. Mathematical advances in this context includeboth operational and Boolean methods, as well as linguistic, logic-based Bayesian approaches and generative mathematics relevant to scenario formation. The mathematic methods are refined into functional areas and deeper learning, which enable the use of searching algorithms to achieve optimal solutions for the circular nature and application of sustainability.Pertinent sections and synergistic elements are covered in order to synthesize key informative nodes, advising of the very real dangers facing planet Earth and its biodiversity. Each volume stands in its own right. Analytical and scientific chapters are blended with social resilience and socio-economic development consideration, thus enabling the settings of sustainability within varying scenarios of climatic forces and species dynamics. English | 2022 | ISBN: 0367425645 | 355 pages | True PDF | 33.16 MB This book comprehensively explores the early evolution of life and the Archean environment. Topics include the differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, variations in metabolisms, concepts of ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles (nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorous), Archean geology and environments, and the widely accepted early evolutionary history of life. The text addresses controversies regarding early life and its environment, particularly the unusual microfossil assemblages from the 3.4 Ga Strelley Pool Formation and the 3.0 Ga Farrel Quartzite of Western Australia. Readers will get a fuller picture of the Archean world, and an appreciation of many still unresolved questions. English | 2021 | ISBN: 9811234337 | 389 pages | True PDF | 18.56 MB The book puts forward dynamically enabled cyber defense technology as a solution to the system homogenization problem. Based on the hierarchy of the protected information system entity, the book elaborates on current mainstream dynamic defense technologies from four aspects: the internal hardware platform, software service, information data and external network communication. It also ascertains their possible evolution routes, clarifies their relationship with existing security products, and makes macro analyses and discussions on security gain and overall system efficiency of these technologies.This book can be used as both a textbook for graduate courses related to electronic information as well as a reference for scientific researchers engaged in relevant research. It helps graduate students majoring in electronics and information sciences to gain an understanding in dynamically-enabled cyber defense. Scientists and engineers specialising in network security research should also find this book to be a useful guide on recent developments in network security.

It looks at how the combination of common sense, culture, and social norms influence people's ways of thinking and behavior. Although the focus is Japan in looking at these interrelationships, the author draws on his experience and knowledge of other countries from his days before graduate school, when he traveled the world as a backpacker. Now, from the world of academia, he uses his knowledge of economic analysis to consider the similarities and differences in human behavior among countries and cultures. English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030937496 | 162 pages | True PDF EPUB | 35.61 MB This book introduces and explains all existing dry processing methods, drawing from larges studies about these techniques in both the academia and industrial sectors. Potentially, water insufficiency is one of the critical issues that could be the major cause of international conflicts. Thus, reducing water consumption and pollution in all industrial sectors is an essential issue for all countries. As a main part of the mining industry, ore processing plants are highly dependent on water, and water scarcity poses significant risk to the industry. Thus, water consumption is a strategic issue for mineral processing plants, particularly in dry climate countries. To select dry or wet processing, the differences between these conditions should be taken into consideration, which needs an in-depth understanding of the various possible methods. This book will be of interest to professionals and researchers.
