  • Ecology for the 21st century

    • 1st Edition
    • Orianna Carter
    • English
    Ecology for the 21st Century is a comprehensive, beginner-friendly, introductory textbook that provides students with an ecological perspective on our changing world. Suitable for both non-majors and majors-level ecology courses, this textbook presents clear and wide ranging coverage, including many current examples and topics. Applying a student-centric approach with dynamic examples and case studies, the book's ecological principles emerge through topics students care to learn more about. The ‘twin-evils’ of atmospheric carbon and ocean acidification are explored through investigations on the health of coral reef ecosystems.In addition, populations and species dynamics are introduced using classical modeling parameters. This textbook drives home the delicate balance of the natural world through regional issues surrounding endangered versus invasive species. Themes of resource acquisition, adaptation, and evolution of species are reinforced throughout, encouraging students to envision an ecologically driven world.

  • Plastics in the Sea

    Occurrence and Impacts
    • 1st Edition
    • Sandra E. Shumway + 1 more
    • English
    Plastics in the Sea: Occurrence and Impacts is a comprehensive reference written by renowned leaders in the field. It synthesizes existing knowledge of how mega-, macro-, micro-, and nanoplastics impact marine environments and marine life, ranging from zooplankton, fishes, and invertebrates to birds, mammals, turtles, manatees, and other megafauna. The chapters provide basic and integrated discussions of the presence, sources, and fates; methodologies for detection, chemistry, and degradation; impacts on organisms and food webs; implications for fisheries and aquaculture; policy and public engagement; and economic and legal implications of plastic pollution. Plastics in the Sea: Occurrence and Impacts is an indispensable resource for marine resource managers, ecotoxicologists, fisheries stakeholders, policymakers, and academic researchers interested in the occurrence, impacts, and mitigation of marine plastic pollution.

  • Spatio-Temporal Learning and Monitoring for Complex Dynamic Processes with Irregular Data

    • 1st Edition
    • Chunhui Zhao + 1 more
    • English
    Spatio-Temporal Learning Using Irregular Data for Complex Dynamic Processes introduces learning, modeling, and monitoring methods for highly complex dynamic processes with irregular data. Two classes of robust modeling methods are highlighted, including low-rank characteristic of matrices and heavy-tailed characteristic of distributions. In this class, the missing data, ambient noise, and outlier problems are solved using low-rank matrix complement for monitoring model development. Secondly, the Laplace distribution is explored, which is adopted to measure the process uncertainty to develop robust monitoring models.The book not only discusses the complex models but also their real-world applications in industry.
