Such networks consist of a set of nodes equipped with wireless interfaces and they are designed to form self-organizing and spontaneous networks. They are usually multi-hop in nature, collectively forwarding and processing data to accomplish an application task. In addition, their topologies can be highly dynamic due to the potential mobility of the nodes. All these properties, in isolation and combination, pose a plethora of research challenges as well as new application opportunities. The International Conference on Ad-Hoc Networks and Wireless (ADHOC-NOW) serves as one of the premier venues for researchers and industrial practitioners to exchange ideas in this exciting area. Following previous ADHOC-NOW conferences in Murcia, Spain (2009), Sophia Antipolis, France (2008), Morelia, Mexico (2007), Ottawa, Canada (2006), Cancun, Mexico (2005), Vancouver, Canada (2004), Mo- real, Canada (2003), and Toronto, Canada (2002), the ninth ADHOC-NOW conf- ence took place at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, during August 20–22, 2010. As the capital city of the Province of Alberta, Edmonton is a cultural, governmental, and educational center and offers year-round world-class f- tivals, including the Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival. Edmonton is also home to North America's largest indoor shopping mall, the West Edmonton Mall. The summer in Edmonton is particularly joyful and has mild temperature and long, sunny daytime.Computer Communication Networks and Telecommunications ;6288Computer communication systemsSoftware engineeringComputer programmingApplication softwareAlgorithmsComputer Communication Networkshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I13022Software Engineering/Programming and Operating Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14002Programming Techniqueshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14010Information Systems Applications (incl.

Micromorphology of the Calcic Soils of the Thar desert: Implication for Climate Change and Origin of Palygorskite -- 10 Summary and Concluding remarks.This monograph covers uniqueness of micromorphology in resolving many important but enigmatic pedological issues such as clay illuviation, formation of pedogenic and non-pedogenic CaCO3, modification of plasmic fabric, contemporary and relict pedogenic processes, polygenesis of soils in Alfisols, Mollisols, Ultisols, Vertisols and Inceptisols of the tropical Indian environments. Chapters in this title also include identification of paleosols, diagenetic overprinting of the pedofeatures in lithified paleosols, and alluvial cyclicity of the fluvial successions. The techniques mentioned in this title are of tremendous value in pedological and geological research for precise and unambiguous definitions of soil taxa to build the national soil information and refine the stratigraphy of the terrestrial sediments. The information is for the benefit the students and researchers of pedology and geomorphology who often come across extreme difficulties in relating to examples applying the principles of soil formation from textbooks devoted almost exclusively to soils of the temperate climates. The format of this publication is arranged for a process-oriented text and figures on micromorphology of the tropical soils and paleosols as a reference for pedologists, earth scientists, M.Sc. and Ph.D. students, and also for land resource managers who are engaged in enhancing the productivity of such tropical soils in India and elsewhere.BioclimatologySoil scienceGeologyClimate Change EcologySoil ScienceGeologyBioclimatology.Soil science.Geology.Climate Change Ecology.Soil Science.Geology.577.22Srivastava Pankaj1460446Pal Dilip K1460447MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910770255903321Micromorphology of Soils and Paleosols of India3660296UNINA03934nam 22007095 450 991015554870332120200630033736.010.1007/978-981-10-2380-4(DE-He213)978-981-10-2380-4(MiAaPQ)EBC4751344(PPN)197135218(CKB)3710000000964878(EXLCZ)99371000000096487820161130d2017 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierSlope Earthquake Stability /by Yang Changwei, Zhang Jingyu, Lian Jing, Yu Wenying, Zhang Jianjing1st ed. 2017.Singapore :Springer Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2017.1 online resource (X, 218 p. 255 illus., 219 illus. in color.)981-10-2379-4 981-10-2380-8 Includes bibliographical references.Introduction -- Analysis of the results of the Earthquake Monitoring Array of Rock Slope in the Xishan Park during 5.12 Wenchuan Earthquake -- Shaking Table Test of Rock Slope -- Numerical Simulation of the dynamic characteristics of rock slope -- Time-Frequency analysis method of acceleration amplification of rock slope with two-side slopes -- Analysis of the deformation characteristics and landslide mechanism of the covering layer–bedrock type slope -- Time-Frequency analysis method of seismic stability of the covering layer-bedrock type slope -- Model of assessing Hazard Scope of landslide for the covering layer- bedrock type slope -- Conclusions -- Reference. .This book begins with the dynamic characteristics of the covering layerbedrock type slope, containing monitoring data of the seismic array, shaking table tests, numerical analysis and theoretical derivation.
