It is presumed that flow conditions and entrance environment of those fishway are not suitable and adequate. The author carried out hydraulic experiments with various shapes and sizes of appurtenance in fishway and observed different flow phenomena. Hydraulic experiments are also conducted in sloping channel to compare them with fishway. This book will help to understand the flow scenarios to improve design of pool-and-weir fishway. 140 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Tourism sector in Kazakhstan is not so developed. But as we know the Republic of Kazakhstan is in the list of new states and the future of its tourism can be viewed as perfect. Kazakhstan is one of the post-Soviet states. The Republic of Kazakhstan is well known for rather unique natural and geographic conditions. Kazakhstan owns many things for every kind of tourist. A history and diverse ethnic heritage have left scores of diverse sights of interest for the sightseer. The natural environment offers innumerable opportunities in eco and sports tourism, the latter including trekking, mountaineering particularly mountains, fishing and hunting, the latter already popular with an established clientele who value the diversity of species available and the relatively low cost of such trips. The wealth of religious sites, mostly, but not all, connected with Islam, attract a steady and growing number of visitors. That s why the tourism sector in Kazakhstan is growing up year by year. 96 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -With the advances in wireless technologies and development of mobile devices, Mobile Ad hoc Networks have emerged as the milestone and play an important role in establishing communication using no fixed infrastructure. Nodes are free to move randomly and communicate with each other through single hop if within transmission range or through multiple hop beyond transmission range. Due to unpredictable behavior of such networks, it is difficult to maintain the required Quality of Service (QoS). QoS in MANETs refers to the provision of guaranteed services on the network layer, defined in the performance metrics between application and service provider. The first important task in QoS network routing is to find a feasible route through the network between source and destination. This route should satisfy all the requirements to fulfill the QoS constraints for the desired service. The focus of the book throughout has been on the study and development of QoS constrained routing protocols to ensure better QoS provisioning. 196 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The scheduled tribe groups in India are identified as primitive races and we find the stages of food gathering, hunting and fishing, farming, etc. among the Indian tribes. Major part of the tribal population is illiterate and cut off from the civilized world, they generally carry out production without adequate technological aids with the result that there is much loss of material with very little production. Their methods and implements of cultivation, hunting and fishing are very primitive. They do not know anything about trade and commerce. Hence the economic status of Indian tribes is very much backward. In this book an attempt has been made to know the agriculture and horticulture practices of select PTGs of Visakhapatnam and Srikakulam with the help of economic indicators like extent of cropping pattern, fallow land, intensity of cropping, crop yields, gross value of agricultural productivity and shifting of cultivation. This book is more useful for all kind of persons in the society to understand agriculture and horticulture practices of primitive tribal groups. 324 pp. Englisch. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Seventeen babies a day die in the UK, yet existing research suggests that stillbirth and neonatal loss remains a marginal topiC. There is a need to explore how men and women experience the stillbirth or neonatal death of their child. While the professional literature discusses such deaths, it is unclear from where these perspectives are derived, professionals or parents. This book addresses parents perspectives and seeks to develop a greater of the meaning of the death of a child following stillbirth and neonatal death. This serves to provide valuable insight for professionals who work with bereaved parents, whilst also adding to existing research about bereavement and the multidisciplinary orientations to understanding death and grief in contemporary western societies.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Given the challenges facing the world, it is necessary to incorporate new approaches in how things are done. Stressing that this is time for solutions not trading of blames, this book introduces what it calls alternative diplomacy, highlighting its relevance and why turning to it is expedient. Using The Elders, an organization composed of eminent former world leaders it contends that peaceful approaches in tackling issues are quite fruitful, yielding plausible results without leaving seeds of future conflicts. Coercion and intrigues as often used in Track I Diplomacy are increasingly counterproductive. Soft power, especially when used within the framework of alternative diplomacy is quite rewarding. Many things have evolved including the causes and nature of violence. Therapies must evolve proportionately because new maladies will not respond adequately to old therapies. Stakeholders should thus break free from holdbacks and urge themselves to dare to think and act differently. This will be an important material for diplomats, people interested in world affairs, foreign policy, as well as humanitarian and peace workers, especially those in reconciliation & peacebuilding circles.…
