Book Synopsis La aplicación de los SIG en la arqueología del paisaje by : Ignacio Grau Mira
Download or read book La aplicación de los SIG en la arqueología del paisaje written by Ignacio Grau Mira and published by . This book was released on 2006-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde finales de los años ochenta se ha producido la progresiva aplicación de los SIG —Sistemas de Información Geográfica— al terreno de la Arqueología. Esta técnica se desarrolló en primer lugar en el ámbito anglosajón y, a mediados de la década del noventa, se incorporó a los estudios españoles. La renovación metodológica que supone el empleo de los SIG ha provocado un gran dinamismo y desarrollo en la investigación arqueológica de los últimos años.Atendiendo al interés creciente de esta línea de análisis, el área de Arqueología de la Universidad de Alicante acogió un encuentro científico que se celebró los días 18 y 19 de noviembre de 2004 con la finalidad de debatir aspectos teóricos sobre la utilización de los SIG en la Arqueología del Paisaje. Aquel seminario reunió a los principales investigadores sobre dicho campo en la Arqueología española y contó con la participación de reconocidos especialistas europeos y norteamericanos. El presente libro recoge diecinueve trabajos realizados por treinta y tres investigadores que proceden de distintas instituciones y universidades de todo el ámbito español, de Estados Unidos y del Reino Unido. Estos trabajos reflejan diversas perspectivas y recopilan aportaciones que se engloban en dos bloques temáticos: uno dedicado a planteamientos metodológicos y otro a las múltiples aplicaciones de los SIG en estudios de carácter histórico-arqueológico.
Book Synopsis Good Practice in Archaeological Diagnostics by : Cristina Corsi
Download or read book Good Practice in Archaeological Diagnostics written by Cristina Corsi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents the most important “deliverable” of the European-funded project Radio-Past (www.radiopast.eu). It is intended to disseminate the key results achieved in the form of methodological guidelines for the application of non-destructive approaches in order to understand, visualize and manage complex archaeological sites, in particular large multi-period settlements whose remains are still mostly buried. The authors were selected from among the project research “staff” but also from among leading international specialists who served as speakers at the two international events organized in the framework of the project (the Valle Giulia Colloquium of Rome – 2009 and the Colloquium of Ghent – 2013) and at the three Specialization Fora, the high formation training activities organized in 2010, 2011 and 2012. As such, the book offers contributions on diverse aspects of the research process (data capture, data management, data elaboration, data visualization and site management), presenting the state of the art and drafting guidelines for good practice in each field.
Book Synopsis The Spanish Coastal Systems by : Juan A. Morales
Download or read book The Spanish Coastal Systems written by Juan A. Morales and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 823 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents the state of art of the geologic knowledge about the Spanish coast obtained through scientific research in the last 30 years.From a general point of view, coasts are the most quickly changing systems of the Earth. This is critical, since many human resources, such as the main part of economic and social activities, are located in the coastal areas. Especially in the case of Spain these coasts include cities, wide industrial areas (including harbor complexes), important ecologic systems, and our main economic resource: tourism. Understanding the dynamic functioning of each element of this coast is vital for correct future coastal management, so as to solve problems derived from bad plans developed in the last decades of the twentieth century. This is a valuable text for advanced graduate students and coastal researchers, which connects the specific dynamic functioning of the main Spanish coastal environments and their relationships with human activities.
Book Synopsis Silvopastoral Systems in Southern South America by : Pablo Luis Peri
Download or read book Silvopastoral Systems in Southern South America written by Pablo Luis Peri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-authored volume contains peer-reviewed chapters from leading researchers and professionals in silvopastoral systems topic in Southern South America (Argentina, Chile and South Brazil). It is a compendium of original research articles, case studies, and regional overviews and summarizes the current state of knowledge on different components and aspects (pasture production, animal production, trees production, carbon sequestration, conservation) of silvopatoral systems in native forests and tree plantations. The main hypothesis of the book is that farmers have integrated tree and pasture/grassland species in their land use systems to reach higher production per unit of land area, risk avoidance, product diversification, and sustainability. These production systems also impact positively in main ecosystem processes. Management of these productive systems, Policy and Socioeconomic Aspects provide great opportunities and challenges for farmers and policy makers in our region. The book is unique on this subject in Southern South America and constitutes a valuable reference material for graduate students, professors, scientists and extensionists who work with silvopastoral systems.
Book Synopsis Lost Languages of the Peruvian North Coast by : Matthias Urban
Download or read book Lost Languages of the Peruvian North Coast written by Matthias Urban and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dieses Buch behandelt die indigenen Sprachen der peruanischen Nordküste, die vor der Ankunft der Spanier gesprochen wurden. Sie gingen mit dem Untergang der präkolumbischen Gesellschaften der Küstenregion verloren: Sechura und Tallán in Piura, Mochica in Lambayeque und La Libertad, und weiter südlich Quingnam. Der Autor rekonstruiert die Verbreitung dieser Sprachen bis in die frühe Kolonialzeit anhand der spärlichen Quellen und diskutiert die Prozesse des Sprachverlustes zugunsten des Spanischen. Soweit möglich werden Lexikon, Grammatik und phonologisches System jeder Sprache dargestellt und mögliche Rückschlüsse auf Sprachkontakte und Sprachgrenzen gezogen. Eine grosse Bedeutung kommt der Diskussion zu, inwieweit die koloniale Sprachsituation an der Nordküste in die präkolumbianische Vergangenheit projiziert werden kann."--

Book Synopsis The Archaeology of Death and Burial by : Mike Parker Pearson
Download or read book The Archaeology of Death and Burial written by Mike Parker Pearson and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2021-09-03 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The archaeology of death and burial is central to our attempts to understand vanished societies. Through the remains of funerary rituals we can learn not only about the attitudes of prehistoric people to death and the afterlife, but also about their way of life, their social organisation and their view of the world. This ambitious book reviews the latest research in this huge and important field, and describes the sometimes controversial interpretations that have led to rapid advances in our understanding of life and death in the distant past. A unique overview and synthesis of one of the most revealing fields of research into the past, it covers archaeology's most breathtaking discoveries, from Tutankhamen to the Ice Man, and will find a keen market among archaeologists, historians and others who have a professional interest in, or general curiosity about, death and burial.
Book Synopsis Ecosystem Services in Patagonia by : Pablo L. Peri
Download or read book Ecosystem Services in Patagonia written by Pablo L. Peri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2022-04-30 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to quantify and discuss how societies have directly and indirectly benefited from ecosystem services in Patagonia; not only in terms of provisioning and cultural services, but also regulating and supporting services. Patagonia, a region that stretches across two countries (ca. 10% in Chile and 90% in Argentina), is home to some of the most extensive wilderness areas on our planet. Natural grasslands comprise almost 30% of the Americas, including the Patagonian steppe, while Patagonian southern temperate forests are important for carbon sequestration and storage, play a pivotal role in water regulation, and have become widely recognized for their ecotourism value. However, profound changes are now underway that could affect key ecosystem functions and ultimately human well-being. In this context, one major challenge we face in Patagonia is that ecosystem services are often ignored in economic markets, government policies and land management practices. The book explores the synergies and trade-offs between conservation and economic development as natural landscapes and seascapes continue to degrade in Patagonia. Historically, economic markets have largely focused on the provisioning services (forest products, livestock) while neglecting the interdependent roles of regulating services (erosion and climate control), supporting services (nutrient cycling) and cultural services (recreation, local identity, tourism). Therefore, the present work focuses on ecosystem functions and ecosystem services, as well as on trends in biodiversity and the interactions between natural environments and land-use activities throughout Patagonia.
Book Synopsis World Anthropologies by : Gustavo Lins Ribeiro
Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.
