descriptive grammar of German on the levels of phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, and graphemics. It is a recommended read for anyone interested in the grammar of German and especially for students of German philology. The book focuses on how grammatical generalizations are derived from concrete linguistic material while covering a huge number of the important phenomena of German grammar. No specific theoretical framework is adopted in the book but it constitutes an ideal starting point for reading more theory-specific textbooks and accessible research papers. Despite its length, the book is suitable for inclusion in all sorts of curricula because more advanced parts are clearly marked and can be skipped, and the five parts of the book can be read separately. Almost all chapters contain a large number of exercises with complete solutions in the appendix. 330 $aEinführung in die grammatische Beschreibung des Deutschen ist eine Einführung in die deskriptive Grammatik am Beispiel des gegenwärtigen Deutschen in den Bereichen Phonetik, Phonologie, Morphologie, Syntax und Graphematik. Das Buch ist für jeden geeignet, der sich für die Grammatik des Deutschen interessiert, vor allem aber für Studierende der Germanistik bzw. Deutschen Philologie. Im Vordergrund steht die Vermittlung grammatischer Erkenntnisprozesse und Argumentationsweisen auf Basis konkreten sprachlichen Materials. Es wird kein spezieller theoretischer Rahmen angenommen, aber nach der Lektüre sollten Leser in der Lage sein, sowohl deskriptiv ausgerichtete Forschungsartikel als auch theorienahe Einführungen lesen zu können. Trotz seiner Länge ist das Buch für den Unterricht in BA-Studiengängen geeignet, da grundlegende und fortgeschrittene Anteile getrennt werden und die fünf Teile des Buches auch einzeln verwendet werden können. Das Buch enthält zahlreiche Übungsaufgaben, die im Anhang gelöst werden. 410 0$aTextbooks in Language Sciences ;$v2 606 $aPhilology & Linguistics$2HILCC 606 $aLanguages & Literatures$2HILCC 610 $adeutsch 610 $alehrbuch 610 $agerman language 610 $atextbook 610 $aFlexion 610 $aGrammatik 610 $aKasus 610 $aPhonologie 610 $aSyntax 610 $aVerb 615 7$aPhilology & Linguistics 615 7$aLanguages & Literatures 676 $a435 700 $aSchäfer$b Roland$0803384 801 0$bPQKB 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910132485703321 996 $aEinführung in die grammatische Beschreibung des Deutschen$91804623 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04785nam 22012373a 450 001 9910367565003321 005 20250203235429.0 010 $a9783039213498 010 $a3039213490 024 8 $a10.3390/books978-3-03921-349-8 035 $a(CKB)4100000010106096 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/46256 035 $a(ScCtBLL)a4cb6b35-6d39-4ec9-8692-92e5909e0640 035 $a(OCoLC)1163835224 035 $a(oapen)doab46256 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000010106096 100 $a20250203i20192019 uu 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aEmerging Marine Biotoxins$fArjen Gerssen, Ana Gago-Martínez 210 $cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2019 210 1$aBasel, Switzerland :$cMDPI,$d2019. 215 $a1 electronic resource (206 pages) 311 08$a9783039215133 311 08$a3039215132 330 $aThe emergence of marine and freshwater toxins in geographical areas where they have never been reported before is a concern due to the considerable impact on (sea)food contamination, and consequently, on public health. Several groups of marine biotoxins, in particular tetrodotoxins, ciguatoxins, and palytoxins, are included among the relevant marine biotoxins that have recently emerged in several coastal areas. A similar situation has been observed in freshwater, where cyanobacterial toxins, such as microcystins, could end up in unexpected areas such as the estuaries where shellfish are cultivated. Climate change and the increased availability of nutrients have been considered as the key factors in the expansion of all of these toxins into new areas; however, this could also be due to more intense biological invasions, more sensitive analytical methods, or perhaps even an increased scientific interest in these natural contaminations. The incidences of human intoxications due to the consumption of seafood contaminated with these toxins have made their study an important task to accomplish in order to protect human health. This Special Issue has a focus on a wide variety of emerging biotoxin classes and techniques to identify and quantify them. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 607 $aMurntuluk / Catfish (Central NT, North NT SE52-03)$2aiatsisp 610 $aC-CTX-1 610 $anon-targeted analysis 610 $aciguatera fish poisoning 610 $asuspects screening 610 $aneurodegeneration 610 $aadaptation 610 $aLC-HRMS 610 $aparalytic shellfish toxins 610 $aLC-MS/MS 610 $aanimal toxins 610 $aidentification 610 $amethod characterization 610 $acaribbean ciguatoxins 610 $aoral toxicity 610 $awater flea 610 $aquorum sensing 610 $aeutrophication 610 $abeta-methyl-amino-l-alanine 610 $adynamics simulation 610 $athermal water 610 $aspent medium 610 $aMicrocystis 610 $aGambierdiscus 610 $agambierdiscus 610 $awhole genome sequencing 610 $apalytoxin 610 $aconotoxin 610 $aovatoxins 610 $acyanobacterial toxin 610 $aBMAA 610 $aCiguatera fish poisoning 610 $aRastrineobola argentea 610 $acalcium-activated K+ ion channel 610 $atoxicity equivalence factor 610 $aNMR spectroscopy 610 $aN2a 610 $aPPIA 610 $amarine biotoxins 610 $aDaphnia magna 610 $aELISA 610 $adisulfide-rich peptide 610 $afood chain 610 $aShK-like peptide 610 $avoltage-gated K+ ion channel 610 $atargeted analysis 610 $aChinese yellow catfish 610 $amarine 610 $amacaronesia 610 $aneuroblastoma bioassay 610 $amarine toxins 610 $aacute toxicity 610 $aalgal-bacterial relationship 610 $amass spectrometry 610 $atetrodotoxins 610 $asaxitoxin 610 $atoxicology 610 $acationization 610 $aseafood safety 610 $aevolution 610 $acyanotoxins 610 $atoxin genes 610 $azoantharian 610 $aspatial variability 610 $adopaminergic neurons 610 $atetrodotoxin 610 $abivalve mollusks 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 700 $aGerssen$b Arjen$01297596 702 $aGago-Martínez$b Ana 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910367565003321 996 $aEmerging Marine Biotoxins$93024593 997 $aUNINA
