Advancing Strategic Science A Spatial Data Infrastructure Raadmap for the U.S. Geological Survey

This report summarizes the findings and recommendations of the Com mittee on Spatial Data Enabling USGS Strategic Science in the 21st Century. The National Research Council (NRC) has published several reports that have helped to guide the development of the spatial data infrastruc ture (SDI) both in the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and nationally (1993, 1994, 1995, 2001, 2003, 2007).

Biological Invasions in Changing Ecosystems

In this book, a collection of efforts from 57 renowned worldwide invasion scientists covers our current knowledge of biological invasions as well as their impacts, patterns and mechanisms in marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. The book presents a multidisciplinary approach to biological invasions with key study cases from different biogeographic regions structured into four sections

THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMON METRICS FOR ADVANCING SOCIAL SCIENCE THEORY AND RESEARCH

In February 2010, the National Research Council (NRC) convened a workshop to investigate the feasibility of developing well-grounded com mon metrics to advance behavioral and social science research, both in terms of advancing the development of theory and increasing the utility of research for policy and practice. A planning committee was appointed by the NRC’s Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education (DBASSE) to organize the event, structure the sessions, select the partici pants, and ensure that the workshop would address the variety of research methods and data sets.

A Unifying Theory of Evolution

The present study is primarily aimed at an audience of evolutionary biologists in the broad sense for Parts 1-3, as well as at scientists from other professional disciplines looking for new approaches to explore phenomena in nature. However, the content is in general not written as technical text or filled with equations that make it utterly incomprehensible for ‘normal’ people, although they would have to skip strictly professional biochemical and biological terms that are a constituent part of the evidence in a scientific sense

The Plant Detective's Manual

If global challenges in food production and the impact of ever-declining biodiversity are to be tackled, every country will need plant biologists who have a deep understanding of plant morphology, physiology and genetics, and how these interact to affect plant function in changing environments. These scientists will also need the capacity to use an effective and powerful set of technologies and research strategies

Zafarnoma

Jahon tarixidagi buyuk siymolardan biri, Markaziy Osiyo xalqlarining iqtisodiy, siyosiy va ma'naviy taraqqiyotiga ulkan hissa qo'shgan davlat arbobi va sarkarda, fan va madaniyat homiysi Amir Temurning hayoti va jo'shqin faoliyati, mo'g'ullar istilosi asoratidan Vatanni ozod etib, markazlashgan qudratli davlatni tiklashi, harbiy yurishlari va nihoyat, bu favqulodda iste'dodli inson shaxsiyatidagi ziddiyatlar tafsiloti hammani qiziqtiradi. Bu borada hali Amir Temur hayotligidayoq voqealar shohidlari tomonidan yozilgan asarlar tarixiy manba sifatida muhim ahamiyatga molikdir. Ulardan biri Nizomiddin Shomiyning «Zafarnoma»sidir. Shomiy Temur hayotini puxta bilgan, uning sarkardaligi va davlatchilik qobiliyati, diniy va dunyoviy fanlarga muhabbati haqida mustaqil tushunchaga ega bo'lgan. Shu sababli u voqealarni haqqoniy yoritgan va Temur faoliyatiga xolisona baho berishga harakat qilgan.

Life and Physical Sciences Research for a New Era of Space Exploration An Interim Report

In response to requests from Congress, NASA asked the National Research Council to undertake a decadal survey of life and physical sciences in microgravity. Developed in consultation with members of the life and physical sciences communities, the guiding principle for the study is to set an agenda for research for the next decade that will allow the use of the space environment to solve complex problems in life and physical sciences so as to deliver both new knowledge and practical benefits for humankind as we become a spacefaring people.

Reptiles and Amphibians of the Pacific Islands

Amid the vastness of the Pacific Ocean, tiny specks of land have served as evolutionary cauldrons, generating enormous variety in the species that inhabit them. This species diversity is generally unrecognized by Pacific island residents and visitors. Only since the late 1970s have systematic biologists begun to focus on this diversity, breaking with the earlier assumption that the faunas and floras of the widely distant islands consisted predominantly of shared species

L’ACIDIFICATION DES OCÉANS QUELS EFFETS ? QUELLES SOLUTIONS ?

Le dérèglement climatique d’origine humaine est aujourd’hui un fait avéré, qui ne fait plus de doute dans la communauté scienti- fique. Vagues de chaleur et canicules à répétition, sécheresses et inondations, tempêtes et ouragans de puissance sans précédent, sont des manifestations actuelles de ce changement climatique en cours, où les événements exceptionnels deviennent de plus en plus fréquents.

Туркистон жадидларининг "Кўмак" ташкилоти

Ушбу китобда Туркистон жадидларининг маърифатпарварлик фаолиятида "Кўмак" ташкилоти қандай вужудга келгани ва улар кимларга ёрдам берганлиги ҳақида ёритиб берилган.

BIOARCHAEOLOGICAL SCIENCE: WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED FROM HUMAN SKELETAL REMAINS

This book provides an overview of bioarchaeological theory, methods, and applications with an emphasis on the latest literature published in the top journals. Bioarchaeology is one of the lesser-known fields of physical anthropology, and yet it is one of the most researched topics in physical anthropology

Transitioning to Sustainable Life below Water

This chapter deals with SDG 14 (‘life below water’) and the curious inclusion of a clause (Article 14B) supporting the global population of small-scale fi shworkers and their marine livelihoods. It enquires as to the background of this particular clause, which it traces back to the drawn-out international negotiation process that was marked by the ratifi cation of FAO’s Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries
