Sinopse

Wave Patterns Influence explores the dynamic relationship between ocean waves and coastlines, focusing on wave-driven circulation and sediment transport. It highlights how these natural forces shape our shores and the critical need for sustainable coastal management strategies. Did you know that wave-driven circulation, the currents generated as waves break, significantly influences nearshore environments? Or that understanding sediment transport is crucial for tackling coastal erosion, a growing concern worldwide? The book delves into the mechanics of wave behavior, examines how waves mobilize and deposit sediment, and investigates various shoreline shaping techniques, from traditional engineering to eco-friendly options. It emphasizes a holistic, systems-based approach, advocating for integrating ecological principles into engineering design. As coastal populations grow and climate change intensifies, Wave Patterns Influence provides vital knowledge for mitigating erosion and building resilient coastal communities. The book progresses by first introducing wave mechanics and nearshore hydrodynamics, then moving to sediment transport, shoreline strategies, and finally, integrated coastal zone management. This structure is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities in coastal management.

    Sally Ride, the first American woman to go to space, once said that she didn’t set out to be a role model, but after her first flight, she realized that she was one. Like her, the twelve women scientists in this collection became unintentional heroes through perseverance and hard work, making great discoveries in all areas of science. From Vera Rubin’s examination of the internal dynamics of galaxies to Nobel Prize winner May-Britt Moser’s study of the brain’s GPS-like navigation system, Trailblazers highlights the achievements of women who became role models for us all.

  • The Decision Intelligence Handbook - Practical Steps for Evidence-Based Decisions in a Complex World - cover

    The Decision Intelligence...

    Decision intelligence (DI) has been widely named as a top technology trend for several years, and Gartner reports that more than a third of large organizations are adopting it. Some even say that DI is the next step in the evolution of AI. Many software vendors offer DI solutions today, as they help organizations implement their evidence-based or data-driven decision strategies. 
     
     
     
    But until now, there has been little practical guidance for organizations to formalize decision making and integrate their decisions with data. 
     
     
     
    With this book, authors L. Y. Pratt and N. E. Malcolm fill this gap. They present a step-by-step method for integrating technology into decisions that bridge from actions to desired outcomes, with a focus on systems that act in an advisory, human-in-the-loop capacity to decision makers. 
     
     
     
    This handbook addresses three widespread data-driven decision-making problems: 
     
     
     
    ● How can decision makers use data and technology to ensure desired outcomes? 
     
     
     
    ● How can technology teams communicate effectively with decision makers to maximize the return on their data and technology investments? 
     
     
     
    ● How can organizational decision makers assess and improve their decisions over time?

    From the acclaimed environmentalist, a call to harness solar power and rewrite our scientific, economic, and political future. 
     
     
     
    Every eighteen hours, the world puts up a nuclear power plant's–worth of solar panels. At the same time, combustion continues to melt our poles, poison our bodies, and drive our global inequality. And it is no longer necessary: For the first time in 700,000 years, we know how to catch the sun’s rays and convert them into energy. 
     
     
     
    In Here Comes the Sun, world-renowned author Bill McKibben tells the story of our sudden spike in power from the sun and wind. McKibben traces the arrival of plentiful, inexpensive solar energy, which, if it accelerates, gives us a chance not just to limit climate change’s damage, but to reorder the world on saner and more humane grounds. Getting there means overcoming obstacles like Big Oil, but McKibben sees a chance for a new civilization: one that looks up to the sun, every day, as the star that fuels our world.
