Excerpt: ...are modified frond segments or highly developed indusia. Only a single megaspore reaches maturity in each megasporangium. The Salviniaceae contain the genera Azolla and Salvinia with between 15 and 20 existing species of the warmer regions and the leaves of the latter genus not appreciably different from those of the existing species are found throughout the Tertiary-period. The Marsiliaceae consist of three genera--the monotypic Brazilian Regnellidium, Pilularia with about six species and Marsilia with over 50 widely distributed existing species. The last has been found fossil as early as the Upper Cretaceous, but is rare and more or less uncertain in the fossil state. The extinct genus Sagenopteris is based for the most part on groups of two to five large asymmetrical reticulate veined pinnules borne digitately at the apex of-a long and rather stout stipe and found as impressions in the late Triassic' (Keuper and Rhaetic) very common in the late Triassic and basal Jurassic (Liassic) with seven or eight species rather widespread during the Lower Cretaceous and surviving in one or two Upper Cretaceous species. Associated with some of the older forms are oval or spherical bodies thought to represent sporocarps. The remainder of the living and fossil ferns, excepting certain illy understood extinct types, such as the Devonian and Lower Carboniferous Archaeopteridae and the Mesozoic Tempskya, may be grouped together in the Leptosporangiate or Eufilicalean order Polypodiales, although there is some evidence for recognizing the Gleichenialles and Matoniales as independent orders. The Polypodiales embrace the great majority of living ferns and include the most specialized and abundant families. Without taking the space to give their...

This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quo Vadis: Evolution of Modern Navigation presents an intelligent and intelligible account of the essential principles underlying the design of satellite navigational systems—with introductory chapters placing them in context with the early development of navigational methods. The material is organized roughly as follows: the first third of the book deals with navigation in the natural world, the early history of navigation, navigating by the stars, precise mechanical chronometers for the determination of longitude at sea, and the development of precise quartz controlled clocks. Then, the reader is introduced to quantum ideas as a lead in to a discussion of microwave and optical interactions with atoms, atomic clocks, laser gyrocompasses, and time based navigation. The final third of the book deals with satellite-based systems, including orbit theory, early satellite navigation systems, and a detailed treatment of the Global Positioning System (GPS). Intended for non-specialists with some knowledge of physics or engineering at the college level, this book covers in an intuitive manner a broad range of topics relevant to the evolution of surface and space navigation, with minimum mathematical formalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume charts the history of celestial navigation over the course of five centuries. Written by a group of historians and scientists, it analyzes how competing navigation systems, technologies, and institutions emerged and developed, with a focus on the major players in the US and the UK. The history covers the founding of the Royal Observatory; the first printing of a Nautical Almanac; the founding of the US and UK Nautical Almanac Offices; the creation of international standards for reference systems and astronomical constants; and the impact of 20th century technology on the field, among other topics. Additionally, the volume analyzes the present role and status of celestial navigation, particularly with respect to modern radio and satellite navigation systems. With its diverse authorship and nontechnical language, this book will appeal to any reader interested in the history of science, technology, astronomy, and navigation over the ages.
