 National Research Council, Division on Earth and Life Studies, Board on Earth Sciences and Resources, "Review of EarthScope Integrated Science" English | 2002 | ISBN: 0309076447 | PDF | pages: 74 | 0.7 mb EarthScope is a major science initiative in the solid-earth sciences and has been described as "a new earth science initiative that will dramatically advance our physical understanding of the North American continent by exploring its three-dimensional structure through time". The initiative proposes to cover the United States with an array of instruments created to reveal how the continent was put together, how the continent is moving now, and what lies beneath the continent. The initiative is made of four components, three of which are funded by the Major Research Equipment program of the National Science Foundation (NSF) and one of which is mostly associated with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). In response to a request by the NSF, the National Research Council (NRC) established a committee to review the science objectives and implementation planning of the three NSF components, United States Seismic Array (USArray), the Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO), and the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD). The committee was charged with answered four specific questions: Is the scientific rationale for EarthScope sound, and are the scientific questions to be addressed of significant importance?, Is there any additional component that should be added to the EarthScope initiative to ensure that it will achieve its objective of a vastly increased understanding of the structure, dynamics, and evolution of the continental crust of North America?, Are the implementation and management plans for the three elements of EarthScope reviewed here appropriate to achieve their objectives?, and Have the appropriate partnerships required to maximize the scientific outcomes from EarthScope been identified in the planning documents? Review of EarthScope Integrated Science presents the committee's findings and recommendations. To reach its conclusions the committee reviewed extensive written material and listened to presentations by members of the EarthScope Working Group and other interested scientists. The recommendations encompass science questions, management, education and outreach, and partnerships. Overall the committee was impressed by the EarthScope initiative.  Ryan J.

Representations and Invariants of the Classical Groups By Roe Goodman, Nolan R. Wallach 1998 | 703 Pages | ISBN: 0521582733 | PDF | 33 MB More than half a century has passed since Weyl's "The Classical Groups" gave a unified picture of invariant theory that has retained its importance in mathematics and physics to the present day. This book presents an updated version of this theory together with many of the important recent developments. As a text for beginners, this book provides an introduction to the structure and finite-dimensional representation theory of the complex classical groups that requires only an abstract algebra course as a prerequisite. It makes abundant use of examples and exercises to explain concepts such as root systems, Weyl groups and highest weight theory. The more advanced reader will find an introduction to the structure and representations of complex reductive algebraic groups and their compact real forms. This book will also serve as a reference for the main results on tensor and polynomial invariants and the finite-dimensional representation theory of the classical groups. It will appeal to researchers in mathematics, statistics, physics and chemistry whose work involves symmetry groups, representation theory, invariant theory and algebraic group theory.

 Margit van Wessel, "Reimagining Civil Society Collaborations in Development: Starting from the South " English | ISBN: 103214775X | 2023 | 348 pages | PDF | 3 MB At a time when uneven power dynamics are high on development actors' agenda, this book will be an important contribution to researchers and practitioners working on innovation in development and civil society.  Daniel P. Kessler, "Regulation versus Litigation: Perspectives from Economics and Law" English | 2011 | ISBN: 0226432181, 0226432203 | PDF | pages: 344 | 1.5 mb The efficacy of various political institutions is the subject of intense debate between proponents of broad legislative standards enforced through litigation and those who prefer regulation by administrative agencies. This book explores the trade-offs between litigation and regulation, the circumstances in which one approach may outperform the other, and the principles that affect the choice between addressing particular economic activities with one system or the other. Combining theoretical analysis with empirical investigation in a range of industries, including public health, financial markets, medical care, and workplace safety, Regulation versus Litigation sheds light on the costs and benefits of two important instruments of economic policy.  Reverend Randolph Kesler, "Reflecting on the Word of the Lord" English | ISBN: 109803984X | 2020 | 116 pages | EPUB | 1269 KB We Christians live in a rushed and hurried culture which our churches have accepted without thinking through the consequences. It seems that we have allowed ourselves to equate busyness with spirituality and bible study with the loudest opinion in the room.  Daniel Birnstiel, Na'ama Pat-El, "Re-engaging Comparative Semitic and Arabic Studies" English | 2018 | ISBN: 3447111186 | PDF | pages: 185 | 1.7 mb The present volume has largely emerged from a section on ""Comparative Semitic and Arabic studies"" at the conference ""Horizons of Islamic Theology"", which was held at Goethe University Frankfurt in September 2014. It comprises five contributions and covers an area reaching from general and comparative Afro-Asiatic syntax to South Arabian phonology to diachronic and synchronic Arabic linguistics.
