Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Reliable information and sound assessment methods about the ecosystem enable for identification of indicator species in order to predict changes occurring in the ecosystem. Information about a given ecosystem might be collected both by ground-based and remote sensing methods. Ground-based methods of data acquisition include field observations and gathering in-situ data, while data collection using remote sensing is based on the use of image data acquired by sensors of different types. Remote sensing technology is used to collect data on inaccessible sites. This is because remote sensing enables to collect data about the area at a distance without direct contact with the object under investigation. At present, there is a need for advanced technologies in different areas such as ecosystem management, inventories and assessment of biodiversity, environmental monitoring and species-habitat suitability analysis. These technologies should be based on physical parameters of the ecosystem and socio-economic situations of the community. Therefore, remote sensing is used to evaluate the health of the ecosystem in general by monitoring the dynamics of the earth's surface. 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The phenomenon of Yugonostalgia is still very present all over the world, especially in Europe, that is why I decided to closely examine it. In Slovenia there are many movies with Yugonostalgic themes. I chose three movies for analysis: Outsider, Kajmak in marmelada and Cefurji raus! I wanted to research how people abroad understand Yugonostalgia and if it is possible for them to understand its use in movies and general discourse. 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -It has been estimated that the main factor which accounts for the rapid vocabulary growth to early school age English children is word-formation knowledge. Using empirical research, the book puts side by side L1 and L2 acquisition of word-formation devices. First chapter explores the early acquisition of word-formation devices by English children, and presents the principles through which cross-linguistic influence diverts L2 learners from the natural way of acquiring word-formation devices of their target language. It also presents the 'Dual Semantic Transparency' Hypothesis in L2 acquisition. The second and third chapters utilize empirical evidences in examining the advanced acquisition of word-formation devices by both native speakers and L2 learners, as well as highlight the points in which morphological cross-linguistic transfer is more evident to L2 learners. The fourth chapter offers suggestions over the way L2 learners' knowledge of word-formation devices of their target language can be improved. The book is targeted to anyone interested in language acquisition.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The book 'Physiotherapy and chronic diseases' explores a problem, on which currently is being lead a serious debate in Bulgaria. Where is the place of Physiotherapy - in sport or in medicine. This is a question, which can receive the most correct answer, only if we start from the needs of the chronically ill patients, who are in need of an extended complexed rehabilitative care. One non-temporal and well conducted ongoing Rehabilitation, using the contemporary achievements of the physiotherapeutic studies and practice, would lead to a prevention of the early disability, would cooperate for the contemporary return of the disabled person to the labor market and eventually would reduce the financial expense of the health and social systems. The book would be helpful as much for the development of the profession as education, competences and practical work, as for the development of the understanding of Public health in Bulgaria. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Scale formation is one of the most significant problems in oil and gas industry. There are several methods used to prevent scale formation. Scale inhibitor squeeze treatment is one of them. In this work these treatments were modelled using Reveal by Petroleum Experts. When the inhibitor is injected into the formation at a pressure below fracture pressure, it is distributed radially around the wellbore. But when fracture forms in the reservoir during treatment, the flow distribution will be mixed (radial-linear) because inhibitor will be pumped down the fracture. In this work return concentration of inhibitor in temporarily fractured well are compared to that in unfractured well. Indeed, the lifetime of a treatment with temporary fracturing is extended compared to the radial case. Changing different parameters of fracturing, cases were analysed and compared in terms of squeeze treatment efficiency. Fracture length, timing of fracture propagation and fracture/matrix permeability ratio were considered in this book. Overall, this work presents that which parameters of temporarily fracturing should be changed to achieve the best results. 60 pp. Englisch.

High concentration of large industrial enterprises has resulted in serious problems with air, soil and water pollution. These problems represent a threat to the well-being of its citizens and a major obstacle to developing tourism and attracting foreign investment. The Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany managed to bring many stakeholders of the regions together to elaborate a master-plan 'Clean Air for Mariupol'. The main goals of the project were to identify the measures to improve the quality of environment and reduce pollutants emissions and to elaborate a list of measures to protect the population of Mariupol against the consequences of air, soil and water pollution. The expert group was able to elaborate five fields of action: to collect and assess information on air pollution with fine particles and organic pollutants; to establish a system of environmental monitoring on soil contamination with heavy metals; to establish Environmental Analytical Laboratory; to elaborate and present the community with environmental report; to share experience with other industrial cities. 80 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -During the last three decades, the significant increase in electricity demand, and its consequences, has appeared as a serious concern for the utility companies, yet no major changes have been applied to the conventional power grid infrastructure. Recently, researchers have identified efficient control and power distribution mechanisms as the immediate challenges for conventional power grids. The next step for the power grid towards the Smart Grid is to provide greener, more efficient tools for energy management along with higher reliability using smart services, in which the application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is inevitable. Out of all the advantages ICT brings to the grid, the telecommunication network plays the most important role for providing an interactive, efficient and secure infrastructure. The two-way digital data communication system embedded in the grid will provide an interaction between energy suppliers and consumers for managing, controlling and optimizing energy distribution. 88 pp. Englisch.

This book aims to assess the economic viability and cost-effectiveness of the Meister Vocational High School (MHS)Program, a new type of Korean vocational high school program launched in 2010, inspired by the German dual education and training program, against other investment options, in particular the regular vocational high school (RVHS) and general high school (GHS) programs and derive policy recommendations for the future. 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -We analyze the role of uncertainty on financial markets, growth, and development, considering that uncertainty is caused by two shocks, a liquidity shock and an idiosyncratic productivity shock. The liquidity shock creates a demand for credits, the idiosyncratic shock (productivity of the risky investment) determines financial development. When agents foresee their idiosyncratic shocks, they can share risk and aggregate uncertainty can enhance growth. However, imperfect foresight impedes risk sharing and constraints credits. In this case, uncertainty reduces growth in the long term. The government can promote inter-temporal saving and international capital flows to compensate for distortions. Performing a numerical analysis for developing countries, and utilizing the U.S. as a benchmark, we find a positive relationship between credits and the return of the risky investment (R&D). We also find that the return of this investment can be more important for growth than its ratio to GDP. The foregoing is crucial for developing countries that need to growth faster for development. 68 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The aim of this work is to bring to the fore and spotlight the looming danger posed by unlawful acts to the marine environment and its attendant consequences within the context of the Civil Liability Conventions. 'Unlawful Acts' here connotes sea robbery, piracy and terrorism. Generally, the liability of the shipowner in all the Civil Liability Conventions is strict. However, the shipowner could be exonerated from liability if the pollution damage was caused by sabotage by a third party. Piracy simpliciter, is an insurable peril covered by the Institute Cargo Clause A.Pirates can initiate an act that culminates in massive pollution of the marine environment; thereby prejudicing the IOPC Fund. Furthermore, owing to the blurred difference between piracy and terrorism, in some rare cases, it is possible for terrorist acts to pass as piracy, thereby securing compensation under the 1992 Fund Convention. 68 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Despite the overwhelming attention given to movement theories, we find that there are still some debates in the scholarly work regarding the main factors that led to elite changes after long periods of struggling against authoritarian regimes. Certainly, elite changes are not created by a single variable, but rather by a set of variables that create an interaction effect, so, being able to articulate one of these factors -mass mobilization- should suggest a more evidence-based and different approach of analysis to understand what caused the people to take to the streets for resistance An effective way to assess research outcomes is to broaden the field of comparison across different countries in the two regions. Accordingly, this research provides a cross-country comparative study to identify the correlation between massive popular protests that have been taking place around the Arab world since 2010 and elite changes compared to Eurasian post socialist countries in transitions since 2000. The publication is mostly useful for who are researching in comparative politics issues. 60 pp. Englisch.
