ISBN: 303018367X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
This book focuses on the fungi found in one of the most pristine regions on Earth: Antarctica. It discusses the fungal occurrence in all substrates of the region, including soil, seawater, lake and marine sediments, rocks, ice, and snow. It also addresses the impact of climate changes on these organisms, the genomic techniques developed to study them, and how a number of compounds, such as antibiotics and enzymes, produced by the Antarctic fungi can be used in medicine, agriculture and the chemical industry.

Ecology of Indonesian Papua Part Two
Author: Andrew J. MarshallPublisher: Tuttle Publishing
ISBN: 146290680X
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 780
Book Description
The Ecology of Papua provides a comprehensive review of current scientific knowledge on all aspects of the natural history of western (Indonesian) New Guinea. Designed for students of conservation, environmental workers, and academic researchers, it is a richly detailed text, dense with biogeographical data, historical reference, and fresh insight on this complicated and marvelous region. We hope it will serve to raise awareness of Papua on a global as well as local scale, and to catalyze effective conservation of its most precious natural assets. New Guinea is the largest and highest tropical island, and one of the last great wilderness areas remaining on Earth. Papua, the western half of New Guinea, is noteworthy for its equatorial glaciers, its vast forested floodplains, its imposing central mountain range, its Raja Ampat Archipelago, and its several hundred traditional forest-dwelling societies. One of the wildest places left in the world, Papua possesses extraordinary biological and cultural diversity. Today, Papua’s environment is under threat from growing outside pressures to exploit its expansive forests and to develop large plantations of oil palm and biofuels. It is important that Papua’s leadership balance economic development with good resource management, to ensure the long-term well-being of its culturally diverse populace.

The Selected Papers of Denis Noble CBE FRS
Author: Denis NoblePublisher:
ISBN: 9781848168428
Category : Biological models
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This is a scientific and philosophical autobiography written around a collection of Denis Noble's most significant papers. It traces a remarkable journey from na ve reductionism to a rigorous systems approach to living systems. It is rigorous because Denis Noble was one of the first biologists to construct computer models of cells and organs of the body. His theoretical work is entirely mathematically based, with no room for ambiguity. Far from the denigration of the systems approach as holistic 'hand-waving', his work is now regarded by pharmaceutical companies and regulators as the gold standard of modelling in the development of new medication. Systems Biology is an idea in search of a definition. This book explains why this is true: it is an approach rather than a subject. Denis Noble's work is one of the clearest examples of the systems approach in practice since it reveals the nature of some of the forms of downward causation in multilevel analysis. The story will delight readers who like to see how scientific controversy is resolved, since many of the developments described in each chapter were highly controversial when they occurred.

Equally important, they demonstrate how to insure that computer evidence is admissible in court. Updated to meet ACPO 2003 guidelines, Forensic Computing: A Practitioner's Guide offers: methods for recovering evidence information from computer systems; principles of password protection and data encryption; evaluation procedures used in circumventing a system’s internal security safeguards, and full search and seizure protocols for experts and police officers.
The Next Generation of Video Surveillance and Video Analytics
Author: Zhihao ChenPublisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781516995752
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
The field of electronic surveillance has matured significantly over the past 2 decades, fuelled by the growth of safety and security concerns around the world. Surveillance cameras are being used for a wide variety of applications from national security to securing the home. Video analytics, also called intelligent video surveillance, is a technology that uses software to automatically identify specific objects, behaviours or attitudes in video footage. It transforms the video into data to be transmitted or archived so that the video surveillance system can act accordingly. It may involve activating a mobile camera in order to obtain more specific data about the scene or simply to send a warning to surveillance personnel so that a decision may be made on the proper intervention required. As video analytics has dramatically improved its effectiveness as a tool for providing real-time, actionable intelligence in security installations, it's getting serious attention for other uses as well. Its versatility provides excellent return on investment for a wide range of applications, including business intelligence, factory automation, loss prevention, public liability assessments, training, consumer behavior analysis, monitoring traffic flow, and more.
