The scientific community has voiced two general concerns about the future of the earth. Climatologists and oceanographers have focused on the changes in our physical environment changes in the climate, the oceans, and the chemistry of the air we breathe. Environmental biologists, on the other hand, have addressed issues of conservation and the extinction of species. There is increasing evidence that these two broad concerns are intertwined and mutually dependent. Past changes in biodiversity have both responded to and caused changes in the earth's environment. This book discusses the major factors influencing biodiversity in the earth's terrestrial biomes and their projected patterns of change. In its discussions of ten key terrestrial biomes and freshwater ecosystems, this volume uses our broad understanding of global environmental change to present the first comprehensive scenarios of biodiversity for the twenty-first century. Combining physical earth science with conservation biology, global biodiversity in a changing environment provides a starting point for regional assessments on ail scales. The book will be of interest to those concerned with guiding research on the changing environment of the earth and with planning future policy, especially in accordance with the global biodiversity convention.

This book details three main topics: the screening and characterization of hydrocarbons from air, soil and water; technologies in the biodegradation of hydrocarbons; and the bioconversion of hydrocarbons for biofuel/chemicals, as well as recent developments in the remediation of hydrocarbons and their environmental benefits. The first section focuses on screening methods, qualitative and quantitative analysis of hydrocarbons from soil, air and water environments, speciation of hydrocarbons, and natural bioremediation strategies in such environments. The second section examines technologies for removing hydrocarbon contaminants from various environments, especially advanced technologies for the removal of hydrocarbons and in-situ and ex-situ remediation strategies and problems, as well as concrete case studies. The last section, covering the bioconversion of hydrocarbons for biofuel/chemicals, highlights the biochemicals and bioproducts developed from hydrocarbons, with a particular focus on biochemical and chemical technologies used to produce biopolymers, biofuel precursors and commodity chemicals from hydrocarbons.

Biological invasions by alien (non-native) species are widely recognized as a significant component of human-caused global environmental change and the second most important cause of biodiversity decline. Alien species threaten many European ecosystems and have serious environmental, economic and health impacts. The DAISIE (Delivering Alien Invasive Species Inventories for Europe) project has now brought together all available information on alien species in Europe (terrestrial, aquatic and marine) and from all taxa (fungi, plants, animals). Thus for the first time, an overview and assessment of biological invasions in the Pan-European region is finally possible. The Handbook of Alien Species in Europe summarises the major findings of this groundbreaking research and addresses the invasion trends, pathways, and both economic as well as ecological impact for eight major taxonomic groups. Approximately 11.000 alien species recorded in Europe are listed, and fact sheets for 100 of the most invasive alien species are included, each with a distribution map and colour illustration. The book is complemented by a regularly updated internet database providing free additional information. With its highly interdisciplinary approach, DAISIE and its Handbook will be the basis for future scientific investigations as well as . management and control of alien invasive species in Europe.

During the past decade, geneticists have cloned scores of mendelian disease genes and constructed a rough draft of the entire human genome. The unprecedented insights into human disease and evolution offered by mapping, cloning, and sequencing will transform medicine and agriculture. This revolution depends vitally on the contributions of applied mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientists. Mathematical and statistical methods for genetic analysis are written to equip students in the mathematical sciences to understand and model the epidemiological and experimental data encountered in genetics research. Mathematical, statistical, and computational principles relevant to this task are developed hand in hand with applications to population genetics, gene mapping, risk prediction, testing of epidemiological hypotheses, molecular evolution, and DNA sequence analysis. Many specialized topics are covered that are currently accessible only in journal articles. This second edition expands the original edition by over 100 pages and includes new material on DNA sequence analysis, diffusion processes, binding domain identification, bayesian estimation of haplotype frequencies, case control association studies, the gamete competition model, QTL mapping and factor analysis, the lander green kruglyak algorithm of pedigree analysis, and codon and rate variation models in molecular phylogeny. Sprinkled throughout the chapters are many new problems.

This book despite the common understanding of the importance of desert development in the contemporary world, there are relatively few books published to date on this subject. The books and collective volumes published in this field deal primarily with environmental and physical aspects of desert development such as soil, agriculture, vegetation, water resources, etc. In contrast, this book addresses the issues of regional and urban development in desert areas, which have not been given sufficient attention. The present book is socially oriented. It considers physical development of desert regions not as an end in itself, but rather as an essential precondition for creating socially attractive and desirable environments for human settlement. The book addresses the issues of desert development at three distinctive conceptual levels region, urban environment, and building and deals with both cold and hot deserts
Dynamic modeling of environmental systems
Modeling dynamic systems
Dynamic modeling of environmental systems is a primer on using models to under-stand environmental problems. With their many natural, economic, political, and technical aspects, environmental problems require a systems approach. This book provides an introduction to modeling concepts and applications that is geared specifically toward the environmental field. Sections on modeling terminology, the uses of models, the model-building process, and the interpretation of output provide the foundation for detailed applications. After an introduction to the basics of dynamic modeling, the book leads students through an analysis of several environmental problems, including surface-water pollution, matter-cycling disruptions, and global warming. The scientific and technical context is provided for each problem, and the methods for analyzing and designing appropriate modeling approaches are provided. An accompanying CD-ROM for both Macintosh® and Windows® computers contains a run-time version of STELLA® modeling software with models from the text. While the mathematical content does not exceed the level of a first semester calculus course, the book gives students ail of the background, examples, and practice exercises needed both to use and understand environmental modeling. It is suitable for upper-level undergraduate and beginning graduate-level environmental science courses. The text is also useful for environmental professionals seeking an introduction to modeling in their field.

To achieve viable solutions to present day environmental problems, we must understand the spatial and temporal links between the different environmental compartments of biota, air, water, land and aquatic sediments. This book explains many of the seminal theories used to identify links and predict the movement of natural and anthropogenic chemical compounds. New insights into theories regarding accumulation of contaminants such as radio nuclides, DDT and PCBs are presented challenging the passive acceptance of previously proven dogma. The book is primarily directed to university education, environmental scientists and policymakers. A number of exercises are incorporated in the text while two demo models are given on diskette, one of radionuclide transport from dumped nuclear waste in the Kara Sea and one illustrating the role on biodiversity in coastal zone management.

This book is concerned with long run interactions between the economy and the environment. Evolution which involves the emergence of novelty is distinguished from evolution with no novelty. Three types of time irreversibility are developed to show how time has been treated in the natural sciences and in economies. Concepts of evolution, novelty, time structure and ignorance are synthesized to derive general conclusions for environmental policy. Neo-Austrian capital theory is employed to model economy environ mental interactions. The role and the importance of interdisciplinary work is stressed.

This book originated from my rich experience with the development of numerical modeling software and its use in hydrogeology. I have often met with the approach to a numerical model as if it were a "black box", where the essential information about the method used (its possibilities and restrictions) was lacking. This may lead to the wrong choice of method as well as to a wrong interpretation of results. A certain conservatism is also present that rejects the most up-to-date numerical methods mainly due to their more complicated mathematics. For these reasons, I set my sights on reviewing the whole group of numerical methods from the oldest (the finite differences method) to the most modern, such as the dual reciprocity boundary element method. After the Introduction, the next two chapters discuss the basic equations of a groundwater flow and of the transport of pollutants in a porous medium, while chapter 4 concentrates on the fundamentals of numerical mathematics. Chapters 5 and 6 study each method of numerical modeling separately. A final comparison is to be found in chapter 7. Several practical applications of these methods are listed in chapter 8 and, finally, chapter 9 explains the software included in this book. The CD inside contains the Beflow system which serves to demonstrate the possibilities of the BEM and the random walk methods and the UNSDIS system as examples of the solution of vertical transport of pollutants through the unsaturated zone applying FEM. Besides the actual programs, the CD includes both their source codes (prepared by means of the visual C++ version 6.0 programming language from Microsoft Corp.) and a gallery of results from chapter 8. The latter is constructed as an HTML page which can be viewed either by the simple browser that we include or by a professional one (e.g. the IE or Netscape). Finally, I wish to thank Dr. M. Drahos for allowing me to use some reports of the 1st modeling group in chapter 8. Moreover, I thank my sons, Karol and Michal, for the effort put in to the translation of this book and last, but not least, my wife for her patience with me during the writing of the manuscript.
