Unsuitable characteristics are considered to be soil problems, soil constraints or soil limitations. Only twelve percent of global land is right for agricultural production without much limitation. Some soils have severe limitations for crop production. These soils are so called ‘problem soils’. Many of them do not have enough fertility to be productive; some are arid and saline; some are very sandy and dry; and some are wet and waterlogged for most of the growing season. The global demand for food, wood, fuel, fiber, medicine and other plant products for the 7.2 billion current world population has created such an immense pressure on global soil resources that even the most fertile soils are losing their productive capacity. We are being compelled to bring more and more unsuitable or marginally suitable soils under cultivation. Unless innovative and integrated soil, crop and environmental management practices are adopted for their improvement and sustainable use, further degradation is inevitable. This book, Management of Soil Problems, identifies the problems and discusses management options in a smooth and reader-friendly style. It will be useful for students and professionals of soil science, agriculture, forestry, geography and environmental sciences. .Soil scienceSoil conservationEnvironmental managementEcologySoil science.Soil conservation.Environmental management.Ecology.631.4Osman Khan Towhidauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut748563BOOK9910299391003321Management of Soil Problems2538401UNINA03502nam 22005895 450 991073697890332120251009072100.0981-19-9815-910.1007/978-981-19-9815-7(MiAaPQ)EBC30673847(Au-PeEL)EBL30673847(DE-He213)978-981-19-9815-7(PPN)272270431(CKB)27906762700041(EXLCZ)992790676270004120230802d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierTarget Tracking with Random Finite Sets /by Weihua Wu, Hemin Sun, Mao Zheng, Weiping Huang1st ed. 2023.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (449 pages)Print version: Wu, Weihua Target Tracking with Random Finite Sets Singapore : Springer Singapore Pte. Limited,c2023 9789811998140 Introduction -- Single Target Tracking Algorithms -- Foundation of the Random Finite Set -- The Probability Hypothesis Density Filter -- The Cardinalized Probability Hypothesis Density Filter -- The Multi-Bernoulli Filter -- Labeled RFS-Based Filters -- Maneuvering Target Tracking -- Target Tracking for Doppler Radars -- Track-Before-Detect for Dim Targets -- Target Tracking With Non-Standard Measurements -- Target Tracking for Multiple Distributed Sensors -- Appendix.This book focuses on target tracking and information fusion with random finite sets. Both principles and implementations have been addressed, with more weight placed on engineering implementations. This is achieved by providing in-depth study on a number of major topics such as the probability hypothesis density (PHD), cardinalized PHD, multi-Bernoulli (MB), labeled MB (LMB), d-generalized LMB (d-GLMB), marginalized d-GLMB, together with their Gaussian mixture and sequential Monte Carlo implementations. Five extended applications are covered, which are maneuvering target tracking, target tracking for Doppler radars, track-before-detect for dim targets, target tracking with non-standard measurements, and target tracking with multiple distributed sensors. The comprehensive and systematic summarization in target tracking with RFSs is one of the major features of the book, which is particularly suited for readers who are interested to learn solutions in target tracking with RFSs. The book benefits researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of random finite sets, target tracking, sensor fusion/data fusion/information fusion, etc.Signal processingAutomatic controlProbabilitiesDigital and Analog Signal ProcessingControl and Systems TheoryProbability TheorySignal processing.Automatic control.Probabilities.Digital and Analog Signal Processing.Control and Systems Theory.Probability Theory.621.3848Wu Weihua1381875Sun Hemin1381876Zheng Mao1381877Huang Weiping1381878MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910736978903321Target Tracking with Random Finite Sets3424721UNINA
