Soil organic matter (SOM) is a key constituent of soil as it is a "revolving nutrient find" and improves soil structure, maintains crop production and minimizes erosion. In semiarid environments, the major problem for sustainable farming systems is the continuous decline of SOM towards levels too low for agricultural purposes. In this book, the authors present topical research in the study of the ecology, environmental impact and management of soil organic matter. Topics include: soil organic carbon stocks and changes due to modifications on land use and management practices in Brazil; the preservation of SOM in semiarid Mediterranean environments; effects of SOM on the transport of non-aqueous phase liquid in soils; and, soil organic carbon stocks in relation to different land-use types in a mountainous watershed.

English | ISBN: 0309391539 | 2017 | 140 pages | EPUB | 6 MB
In times of rapid change and constrained resources, measures that are important, focused, and reliable are vital. However there is an overabundance of measures available for evaluating various aspects of population health and previous efforts to simplify existing sets to meet the needs of all decision makers have been unsuccessful. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a workshop to explore the status and uses of measures and measurement in the work of improving population health. Participants explored existing and emerging population health metric sets and characteristics of metrics necessary for stakeholder action across multiple sectors. This report summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

Free Download hase Transitions in Grey Matter Brain Architecture and Mind Dynamics by Joaquin Marro and Joaquin J. Torres
English | January 1, 2021 | ISBN: 0735421773 | 168 pages | PDF | 9.14 Mb
Phase Transitions in Grey Brain Architecture and Mind Dynamics relates the complex systems that we know as ‘mind’ and ‘brain’ to simple concepts in physics such as ‘phase transition’ and ‘criticality’ and establishes a close mathematical link between them. A serious review of live issues in science – from interaction and correlation to emergence, scale invariance, attractors, noise and chaos-this book demonstrates their relevance to intelligence and consciousness. The result is a significant and useful portrait of what ‘mind’ currently means to science and aggregates widely dispersed and sometimes hard to find topics into one resource. Key Provides a coherent basis for the existence of criticality in the brain, and shows how some of its main outstanding properties may be understood Deeply explores the assumption that phase transition is the most relevant concept to understand the mind Offers a strong foundation for those interested in making a complete and useful portrait of the brain This book is for advanced graduate and graduate students in physics, applied mathematics, biology and medicine. It is an excellent resource for practitioners and those curious about recent advances in neurosciences.

Free Download Harald Fritzsch, "Elementary Particles: Building Blocks Of Matter"
English | ISBN: 981256408X | 2005 | 118 pages | PDF | 1383 KB
This highly readable book uncovers the mysteries of the physics of elementary particles for a broad audience. From the familiar notions of atoms and molecules to the complex ideas of the grand unification of all the basic forces, this book allows the interested lay public to appreciate the fascinating building blocks of matter that make up our universe. Beginning with a description of the quantum nature of atoms and particles, readers are introduced to the elementary constituents of atomic nuclei: quarks. The book goes on to consider all of the important ideas in particle physics: quantum electrodynamics and quantum chromodynamics, the theory of strong interactions, the gauge theories of the weak and electromagnetic interactions, as well as the problem of mass generation. To conclude the book, the ideas of grand unification are described, and finally, some applications to astrophysics are discussed. Your guide to this exciting world is an author who, together with the originator of the idea of quarks, Murray Gell-Mann, has played an important role in the development of the theory of quantum chromodynamics and the concept of grand unification.

Free Download John N Bahcall, "DARK MATTER IN THE UNIVERSE Ed 2"
English | ISBN: 9812388400 | 2004 | 248 pages | PDF | 3 MB
If standard gravitational theory is correct, then most of the matter in the universe is in an unidentified form which does not emit enough light to have been detected by current instrumentation. This book is the second editon of the lectures given at the 4th Jerusalem Winter School for Theoretical Physics, with new material added. The lectures are devoted to the "missing matter" problem in the universe, the search to understand dark matter. The goal of this volume is to make current research work on unseen matter accessible to students without prior experience in this area and to provide insights for experts in related research fields. Due to the pedagogical nature of the original lectures and the intense discussions between the lecturers and the students, the written lectures included in this volume often contain techniques and explanations not found in more formal journal publications.
