Sommario/riassunto

"This technical reference (TR) provides instructions for the application of the lentic proper functioning condition (PFC) protocol. It is not intended to serve as a textbook addressing every aspect of lentic area and riparian-wetland function and ecology. The lentic PFC protocol addresses the physical functioning of perennial or intermittent lentic



riparian-wetland systems, such as swamps, ponds, or marshes ... The PFC assessment protocol is not intended for use on ephemeral systems, which do not support the vegetation, riparian-wetland functions, and values that depend on extended periods of available free water in the soil"--Page 3.

Sommario/riassunto

Ilan Pappe's book traces the history of Palestine from the Ottomans in the nineteenth century, through the British Mandate, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, and the subsequent wars and conflicts which have dominated this troubled region. The second edition of Pappe's book has been updated to include the dramatic events of the 1990s and the early twenty-first century. These years, which began with a sense of optimism, as the Oslo peace accord was being negotiated, culminated in the second intifada and the increase of militancy on both sides. Pappe explains the reasons for the failure of Oslo and the two-state solution, and reflects upon life thereafter as the Palestinians and Israelis battle it out under the shadow of the wall of separation. As in the first edition, it is the men, women and children of Palestine who are at the centre of Pappe's narrative.
