Download or read book Terra 2008 written by Leslie Rainer and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2011-06-14 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

Book Synopsis Remote Sensing in Hydrology and Water Management by : Gert A. Schultz
Download or read book Remote Sensing in Hydrology and Water Management written by Gert A. Schultz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides comprehensive information on possible applications of remote sensing data for hydrological monitoring and modelling as well as for water management decisions. Mathematical theory is provided only as far as it is necessary for understanding the underlying principles. The book is especially timely because of new programs and sensors that are or will be realised. ESA, NASA, NASDA as well as the Indian and the Brazilian Space Agency have recently launched satellites or developed plans for new sensor systems that will be especially pertinent to hydrology and water management. New techniques are presented whose structure differ from conventional hydrological models due to the nature of remotely sensed data.

Book Synopsis Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research by : Aditya Johri
Download or read book Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research written by Aditya Johri and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-10 with total page 1124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research is the critical reference source for the growing field of engineering education research, featuring the work of world luminaries writing to define and inform this emerging field. The Handbook draws extensively on contemporary research in the learning sciences, examining how technology affects learners and learning environments, and the role of social context in learning. Since a landmark issue of the Journal of Engineering Education (2005), in which senior scholars argued for a stronger theoretical and empirically driven agenda, engineering education has quickly emerged as a research-driven field increasing in both theoretical and empirical work drawing on many social science disciplines, disciplinary engineering knowledge, and computing. The Handbook is based on the research agenda from a series of interdisciplinary colloquia funded by the US National Science Foundation and published in the Journal of Engineering Education in October 2006.
Download or read book Engineering written by Unesco and published by UNESCO. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews engineering's importance to human, economic, social and cultural development and in addressing the UN Millennium Development Goals. Engineering tends to be viewed as a national issue, but engineering knowledge, companies, conferences and journals, all demonstrate that it is as international as science. The report reviews the role of engineering in development, and covers issues including poverty reduction, sustainable development, climate change mitigation and adaptation. It presents the various fields of engineering around the world and is intended to identify issues and challenges facing engineering, promote better understanding of engineering and its role, and highlight ways of making engineering more attractive to young people, especially women.--Publisher's description.
Book Synopsis Crying Out for Change by : Deepa Narayan-Parker
Download or read book Crying Out for Change written by Deepa Narayan-Parker and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A multi-country research initiative to understand poverty from the eyes of the poor, the Voices of the Poor project was undertaken to inform the World Bank's activities and the upcoming World Development Report 2000/01. The research findings are being published in three books: "Can Anyone Hear Us?" gathers the voices of over 40,000 poor women and men in 50 countries from the World Bank's participatory poverty assessments (Deepa Narayan, Raj Patel, Kai Schafft, Anne Rademacher, and Sarah Koch-Schulte, authors). "Crying Out for Change" pulls together new field work conducted in 1999 in 23 countries (Deepa Narayan, Robert Chambers, Meera Shah, and Patti Petesch, authors). "From Many Lands" offers regional patterns and country case-studies (Deepa Narayan and Patti Petesch, editors). Voices of the Poor marks the first time such an exercise has been undertaken in so many developing countries and transition economies around the world. It provides a unique and detailed picture of the life of the poor and explains the constraints poor people face to escape from poverty in a way that more traditional survey techniques do not capture well. Each of the three volumes demonstrates the importance of voice and power in poor people's definition of poverty. Voices of the Poor concludes that we need to expand our conventional views of poverty which focus on income expenditure, education, and health to include measures of voice and empowerment.

Book Synopsis Les Eaux continentales by : Ghislain de Marsily
Download or read book Les Eaux continentales written by Ghislain de Marsily and published by EDP Sciences. This book was released on 2012-12-03 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce rapport apporte un éclairage sur les difficultés que nos sociétés sont susceptibles de rencontrer dans le domaine de l'eau, à court, moyen et long terme, en France et dans le reste du monde. Les difficultés envisagées concernent les insécurités ou crises liées au manque d'eau, aux excès d'eau et à la détérioration de la qualité de l'eau et des écosystèmes aquatiques. L'analyse de ces difficultés potentielles, dont tout le monde pressent que les conséquences pourraient être dramatiques, l'analyse de leur probabilité d'occurrence et de leur échelonnement dans le temps ont pour objet de tenter, par l'action, de les prévenir, ou, si elles survenaient, d'en amoindrir les effets. Deux causes principales de ces difficultés sont mises en avant : - l'effet des changements démographiques, qui vont vraisemblablement faire croître la population de 6 à 9 milliards d'êtres humains d'ici 2050 et faire passer le taux d'urbanisation de 50 % à 80 %. La question de l'eau - production alimentaire, adduction d'eau potable et assainissement - y est centrale ; - l'effet des changements climatiques liés aux émissions de gaz à effets de serre, qui auront une incidence progressive sur les situations moyennes, mais agiront aussi sur les événements extrêmes (crues, sécheresse) dont les fréquences sont susceptibles de varier notablement. Le rapport aborde les problèmes de ressources en eau, de production alimentaire, d'écosystèmes, de qualité de l'eau et de risques d'inondation. Ces questions sont examinées selon six grands thèmes : bilan besoins-ressources à l'échelle mondiale et alimentation ; gestion des eaux à l'échelle régionale des bassins versants ; l'eau à l'échelle locale des grandes mégalopoles ; écosystèmes aquatiques ; eau et santé ; eau et climat. Le rapport formule enfin des recommandations, tant sur les actions publiques préventives à mener, à caractère réglementaire ou économique, que sur les actions de recherche ou acquisitions de connaissances nouvelles à programmer.
