Sommario/riassunto

Conocer la situación del acceso abierto del libro académico en Iberoamérica fue el objetivo de la investigación que se presenta en este libro. Entender las dinámicas propias de los libros en acceso abierto en el espacio iberoamericano en este momento particular permite trazar rutas y diseñar estrategias que favorezcan la presencia de contenidos académicos en español y en otros idiomas de la región en la red. Todo ello entendiendo el acceso abierto como una extraordinaria posibilidad de divulgación y circulación de contenidos académicos, además de verlo como un compromiso con la sociedad. La panorámica que se ofrece en este libro es resultado de un estudio en el que participaron más de ciento cuarenta editoriales universitarias latinoamericanas, por medio de un instrumento diseñado para tal fin, aportando información sobre la edición digital y la edición de publicaciones en acceso abierto en la región.

Sommario/riassunto

"Panel Reports--New Worlds, New Horizons in Astronomy and Astrophysics is a collection of reports, each of which addresses a key sub-area of the field, prepared by specialists in that subarea, and each of which played an important role in setting overall priorities for the field ... The Committee for a Decadal Survey of Astronomy and Astrophysics synthesized these reports in the preparation of its prioritized recommendations for the field as a whole. These reports provide additional depth and detail in each of their respective areas. Taken together, they form an essential companion volume to New Worlds, New Horizons: A Decadal Survey of Astronomy and Astrophysics."--National Academies Press website.

Sommario/riassunto

"The United States manufactured significant quantities of chemical



weapons during the Cold War and the years prior. Because the chemical weapons are aging, storage constitutes an ongoing risk to the facility workforces and to the communities nearby. In addition, the Chemical Weapons Convention treaty stipulates that the chemical weapons be destroyed. The United States has destroyed approximately 90 percent of the chemical weapons stockpile located at seven sites. Due to public opposition to the use of incineration to destroy the BGAD stockpile, Congress mandated that non- incineration technologies be identified for use at BGCAPP. As a result, the original BGCAPP design called for munitions to be drained of agent and then for the munition bodies to be washed out using high-pressure hot water. However as part of a larger package of modifications called Engineering Change Proposal 87 (ECP-87), the munition washout step was eliminated. Effects of the Deletion of Chemical Agent Washout on Operations at the Blue Grass Chemical Agent Destruction Pilot Plant examines the impacts of this design change on operations at BGCAPP and makes recommendations to guide future decision making"--Publisher's description.
