'Carbon Forestry': Managing Forests to Conserve Carbon; IndexThe Carbon Balance of Forest Biomes provides an informed synthesis on the current status of forests and their future potential for carbon sequestration.This volume is timely, since convincing models which scale from local to regional carbon fluxes are needed to support these international agreements, whilst criticisms have been levelled at existing empirical approaches. One key question is to determine how well eddy-flux measurements at the stand-level represent regional-scale processes. This may be related to specific management practices (age, plantation, fertilisation) orSymposia of the Society for Experimental Biology ;no. 57.Experimental biology reviews.Global environmental changeCarbonEnvironmental aspectsForests and forestryEnvironmental aspectsPlantsEffect of atmospheric carbon dioxide onCarbon dioxide mitigationGlobal environmental change.CarbonEnvironmental aspects.Forests and forestryEnvironmental aspects.PlantsEffect of atmospheric carbon dioxide on.Carbon dioxide mitigation.577.3144Griffiths H(Howard),1953-1543580Jarvis P.

The mechanical science of hierarchical tissues and cells in biological systems has recently emerged as an exciting area of research and provides enormous opportunities for innovative basic research and technological advancement. Such advances could enable us to provide engineered materials and structure with properties that resemble those of biological systems, in particular the ability to self-assemble, to self-repair, to adapt and evolve, and to provide multiple functions that can be controlled through external cues. This book presents material from leading researchers in the field of mechanical sciences of biological materials and structure, with the aim to introduce methods and applications to a wider range of engineers.Courses and lectures ;no. 546.Biomedical materialsMechanical propertiesMultiscale modelingBiomedical materialsMechanical properties.Multiscale modeling.610.28Buehler Markus J.Ballarini RobertoInternational Centre for Mechanical Sciences.MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910438041203321Materiomics3733728UNINA
