Measurement Techniques in Floral Studies

Durgeshwari Asan

Summary

Measurement Techniques in Floral Studies provides an in-depth exploration of the intricate relationship between color science and floral studies. This comprehensive guide bridges the gap between fundamental color theories, advanced measurement techniques, and their applications in understanding floral hues and patterns.
Starting with foundational concepts like the electromagnetic spectrum, light wave properties, and human color vision theories (trichromatic and opponent-color), the book delves into color schemes, spaces, and order systems such as RGB, CMYK, and CIE models. Special emphasis is placed on practical methods for calculating color metrics using Matlab and R code, along with techniques for assessing and tolerancing color differences like Delta E.
Additionally, the book examines insect and bird color vision, chromatic adaptation, and floral color changes over time. Designed for students, researchers, and professionals, this book is an essential resource for anyone studying floral coloration and its ecological significance.

Relativity: The Special and the...

Albert Einstein

"Relativity: The Special and the General Theory" is a seminal work by Albert Einstein, first published in 1916, designed to explain the groundbreaking theories that reshaped our understanding of the universe. In this accessible text, Einstein introduces readers to the Special Theory of Relativity, which addresses the relationship between space and time, and the General Theory of Relativity, which expands these concepts to include gravity as the curvature of space-time caused by mass and energy. Written for the layperson, Einstein employs clear language and thought experiments to elucidate complex ideas such as time dilation, length contraction, and the equivalence principle, making this book a cornerstone of modern physics and a must-read for anyone interested in the fundamental nature of reality.

Quantum Physics Made Simple -...

Maynard Marrow

Quantum physics sounds brilliant—until someone actually tries to explain it.
Suddenly you’re drowning in equations, paradoxes, or New Age promises. You’re told particles can be in two places at once… that time isn’t real… that light behaves like a wave and a particle… but no one seems to explain how or why in a way that actually makes sense.
So you nod, smile, and move on—still confused.
This audiobook fixes that.
You’ll understand what superposition really is. What tunneling actually means. How Einstein proved light could knock out electrons. Why your thoughts might influence physical matter. And how quantum theory is powering the next generation of computers and technologies.
Here’s what you’ll take away:Why Max Planck’s idea shattered physics—and created an entirely new oneWhat the birth of the universe has to do with particle uncertaintyHow particles tunnel through walls (yes, seriously)Why black body radiation melted 19th-century science—and changed everythingWhat light really is, and why it behaves so weirdlyHow Einstein explained the photoelectric effect—and kicked off the tech ageWhy quantum physics and the Law of Attraction might have more in common than you thinkHow time works in quantum theory (hint: not how you expect)Why one particle can be in two places at once—and what that means for your computerWhat quantum computing is, and how it’s already rewriting the rules
If you’ve ever wished someone would finally explain quantum physics like a real person would, here it is.Start listening and see just how simple this “impossible” science can be.

Polycentric Water Governance in...

Nora Schütze

Increasing irrigation efficiency has been high on the political agenda in Spain for many years. However, the overarching aim to reduce agricultural water consumption has not been met so far. To explore this phenomenon, Nora Schütze investigates processes of coordination between the water and agricultural sector in three Spanish river basins in the context of the EU Water Framework Directive implementation. From the perspective of polycentric governance, she identifies multiple mechanisms which illustrate how and why actors interact in certain ways, and thus shows why environmental aims of the Water Framework Directive remain unachieved.
