This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coupled climate system models are of central importance for climate studies. A new model known as FGOALS ( the Flexible Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Land System model), has been developed by the Sate Key Laboratory of Numerical Modeling for Atmospheric Sciences and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (LASG/IAP, CAS), a first-tier national geophysical laboratory. It serves as a powerful tool, both for deepening our understanding of fundamental mechanisms of the climate system and for making decadal prediction and scenario projections of future climate change. "Flexible Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Land System Model: A Modeling Tool for the Climate Change Research Community” is the first book to offer systematic evaluations of this model’s performance. It is comprehensive in scope, covering both developmental and application-oriented aspects of this climate system model. It also provides an outlook of future development of FGOALS and offers an overview of how to employ the model. It represents a valuable reference work for researchers and professionals working within the related areas of climate variability and change. Prof. Tianjun Zhou, Yongqiang Yu, Yimin Liu and Bin Wang work at LASG, the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China.

Download or read book Second Assessment of Climate Change for the Baltic Sea Basin written by The BACC II Author Team and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-03 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an update of the first BACC assessment, published in 2008. It offers new and updated scientific findings in regional climate research for the Baltic Sea basin. These include climate changes since the last glaciation (approx. 12,000 years ago), changes in the recent past (the last 200 years), climate projections up until 2100 using state-of-the-art regional climate models and an assessment of climate-change impacts on terrestrial, freshwater and marine ecosystems. There are dedicated new chapters on sea-level rise, coastal erosion and impacts on urban areas. A new set of chapters deals with possible causes of regional climate change along with the global effects of increased greenhouse gas concentrations, namely atmospheric aerosols and land-cover change. The evidence collected and presented in this book shows that the regional climate has already started to change and this is expected to continue. Projections of potential future climates show that the region will probably become considerably warmer and wetter in some parts, but dryer in others. Terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems have already shown adjustments to increased temperatures and are expected to undergo further changes in the near future. The BACC II Author Team consists of 141 scientists from 12 countries, covering various disciplines related to climate research and related impacts. BACC II is a project of the Baltic Earth research network and contributes to the World Climate Research Programme.

Download or read book North Sea Region Climate Change Assessment written by Markus Quante and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-31 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an up-to-date review of our current understanding of climate change in the North Sea and adjacent areas, as well as its impact on ecosystems and socio-economic sectors. It provides a detailed assessment of climate change based on published scientific work compiled by independent international experts from climate-related disciplines such as oceanography, atmospheric sciences, marine and terrestrial ecology, using a regional evaluation and review process similar to that of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). It provides a comprehensive overview of all aspects of our changing climate, discussing a wide range of topics including past, current and future climate change, and climate-related changes in marine, terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems. It also explores the impact of climate change on socio-economic sectors such as fisheries, agriculture, coastal zone management, coastal protection, urban climate, recreation/tourism, offshore activities/energy, and air pollution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is vital to life, maintenance of ecological balance, economic development, and sustenance of civilization. Planning and management of water resources and its optimal use are a matter of urgency for most countries of the world, and even more so for India with a huge population. Growing population and expanding economic activities exert increasing demands on water for varied needs--domestic, industrial, agricultural, power generation, navigation, recreation, etc. In India, agriculture is the highest user of water. The past three decades have witnessed numerous advances as well as have presented intriguing challenges and exciting opportunities in hydrology and water resources. Compounding them has been the growing environmental consciousness. Nowhere are these challenges more apparent than in India. As we approach the twenty first century, it is entirely fitting to take stock of what has been accomplished and what remains to be accomplished, and what accomplishments are relevant, with particular reference to Indian conditions.

Download or read book Management written by David Boddy and published by Financial Times/Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2005 with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The language is highly accessible and this makes it particularly suitable for undergraduate and international students at all levels. The combination of extended case material, shorter cases and illustrations of management in practice makes for a varied and stimulating approach. The activities will encourage and enable students to work independently to develop both their knowledge and skills.' Abby Cathcart, Sunderland Business School, University of Sunderland 'I like the activities that explicitly ask for critical reflection and am sure that my students will benefit from the development of their critical thinking skills. The cases and examples in the book are helpful both because they come from a wide variety of national backgrounds and because companies like Ryanair and Nokia are familiar names!' Ad van Iterson, Organization and Strategy Department, Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, Maastricht University 'All the case studies are both relevant and appropriate: there is a wide spread of international examples and a striking variety of organisations throughout the chapters, which will undoubtedly enhance the students' learning process.' Paschal McNeill, Department of Business Administration, Quinn School of Business, University College Dublin What is 'management', and what activities and behaviour does it entail? How do ideas and theories of management apply to commercial enterprise and other areas of work? How is the environment of management changing, and what are the impacts of recent trends? Management: An Introduction addresses these and many other questions by providing a comprehensive account of the themes and functions of management. Aimed at the first-time student of the subject and written in a highly accessible style, this is an academically rigorous text which brings the topic to life with a wide range of appealing and readily identifiable examples. Among the most valuable features and aids to learning in the book are: Case studies on organisations as diverse as Ryanair, Vodafone/Ericsson and Oxfam, to provide relevant illustrations of theory in practice. Critical Reflections to encourage the application of personal experience and critical thinking to the issues in question. Skills Development Activities to build practical and work-based competences. Key Terms highlighted in the text and defined both at the margin and in a full Glossary. A companion website at www.pearsoned.co.uk/boddy provides tools for revision, such as self-assessment questions and flashcards, and for research, such as weblinks and case study updates. David Boddy is a Research Fellow at the School of Business and Management, University of Glasgow. He is author of two other books published by Pearson Education: Managing Information Systems: An Organisational Perspective (2005), and Managing Projects (2002).

Download or read book Landscape Evolution written by Jonathan D. Phillips and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2021-04-30 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Landscape Evolution: Landforms, Ecosystems and Soils asks us to think holistically, to look for the interactions between the Earth’s component surface systems, to consider how universal laws and historical and geographical contingency work together, and to ponder the implications of nonlinear dynamics in landscapes, ecosystems, and soils. Development, evolution, landforms, topography, soils, ecosystems, and hydrological systems are inextricably intertwined. While empirical studies increasingly incorporate these interactions, theories and conceptual frameworks addressing landforms, soils, and ecosystems are pursued largely independently. This is partly due to different academic disciplines, traditions, and lexicons involved, and partly due to the disparate time scales sometimes encountered. Landscape Evolution explicitly synthesizes and integrates these theories and threads of inquiry, arguing that all are guided by a general principle of efficiency selection. A key theme is that evolutionary trends are probabilistic, emergent outcomes of efficiency selection rather than purported goal functions. This interdisciplinary reference will be useful for academic and research scientists across the Earth sciences. Serves as a primary theoretical resource on landscape evolution, Earth surface system development, and environmental responses to climate and land use change Incorporates key ideas on geomorphic, soil, hydrologic, and ecosystem evolution and responses in a single book Includes case studies to provide real-world examples of evolving landscapes
