• Sommario/riassunto: HANDBOOK OF WIND RESOURCE ASSESSMENT. Useful reference text underpinning the theory behind wind resource assessment along with its practical application. Handbook of Wind Resource Assessment provides a comprehensive description of the background theory, methods, models, applications, and analysis of the discipline of wind resource assessment, covering topics such as climate variability, measurement, wind distributions, numerical modeling, statistical modeling, reanalysis datasets, applications in different environments (onshore and offshore), wind atlases, and future climate.

• Sommario/riassunto: This is a book about why people nurture. It traces the origins of caring and caregiving from the earliest mammals, describes neurobiological evidence, and explores the social psychological processes of both caregiving and attachment. This book helps us to understand why parents choose to nurture children and why romantic partners choose to nurture one another.
