Yet, she has never been the subject of a scholarly monograph dedicated to the textual and visual evidence for her, her activities, and the measures that ancient magical specialists took to counter her. This volume also falls short of this description, because it covers only one part of the material: it is an edition of the textual record only, which is, however, collected here as completely as seems possible today. Walter Farber, who has studied these materials for decades, presents a comprehensive collection of all of the known texts, the texts of the primary incantations in a ?score? format, and transliteration and translation of a number of ancillary texts. This much-awaited volume will fill the void in the literature on this aspect of the life and thought of ancient Mesopotamian peoples regarding the character of this malevolent creature and the means of warding off the threat that she posed. 410 0$aMesopotamian civilizations ;$v17. 606 $aMythologie assyro-babylonienne$2rero 606 $aIncantations akkadiennes$2rero 606 $aReligion assyro-babylonienne$2rero 606 $aLamassu$2rero 606 $aMythologie assyro-babylonienne$2ram 606 $aLamashtu (Assyro-Babylonian deity) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMythologie assyro-babylonienne. 615 0$aIncantations akkadiennes. 615 0$aReligion assyro-babylonienne. 615 0$aLamassu. 615 0$aMythologie assyro-babylonienne. 615 0$aLamashtu (Assyro-Babylonian deity) 676 $a299/.21 700 $aFarber$b Walter$4aut$01070790 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464331203321 996 $aLama?tu$92565094 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04741nam 2201021 a 450 001 9910777937403321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-282-35901-0 010 $a9786612359019 010 $a0-520-93271-4 024 7 $a10.1525/9780520932715 035 $a(CKB)1000000000767629 035 $a(EBL)470872 035 $a(OCoLC)609849969 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000303562 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11241701 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000303562 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10276063 035 $a(PQKB)11646226 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0000055773 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC470872 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse30934 035 $a(DE-B1597)520065 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780520932715 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL470872 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10676224 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL235901 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000767629 100 $a20050427d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aMonitoring rocky shores$b[electronic resource] /$fSteven N.

This sensitive habitat at the interface of land and ocean may well be the marine equivalent of the canary in a coal mine as we advance into an era of global climate change. This handbook describes effective methods and procedures for monitoring the ecological and environmental status of these areas. Written by three collaborating authors with extensive field experience, it provides critical discussions and evaluation of the various sampling techniques and field procedures for studies of intertidal macroinvertebrates, seaweeds, and seagrasses. Rather than prescribing standard protocols or procedures, the authors break down the decision-making process into various elements so investigators can become aware of the advantages and disadvantages of choosing a particular method or approach. Chapters discuss topics such as site selection, field sampling layouts and designs, selection of sampling units, nondestructive and destructive methods of quantifying abundance, and methods for measuring age, growth rates, size, structure, and reproductive condition. 606 $aIntertidal ecology$xResearch$xMethodology 606 $aEnvironmental monitoring$xMethodology 610 $abrackish. 610 $aclimate change. 610 $acoastline. 610 $aearth sciences. 610 $aecology. 610 $aenvironment. 610 $aenvironmentalism. 610 $afield sampling layouts. 610 $afieldwork. 610 $aglobal warming. 610 $agrowth rates. 610 $aintertidal macroinvertebrates. 610 $aintertidal zone. 610 $aintertidal. 610 $amacroinvertebrates. 610 $amarine environment. 610 $anature. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $aocean health. 610 $aocean plants. 610 $aocean. 610 $aoceanography. 610 $aquantifying abundance. 610 $areproductive condition. 610 $asampling units. 610 $ascience. 610 $aseagrasses. 610 $aseaweeds. 610 $ashoreline. 610 $asite selection. 610 $awater plants. 615 0$aIntertidal ecology$xResearch$xMethodology. 615 0$aEnvironmental monitoring$xMethodology. 676 $a577.69/9 700 $aMurray$b Steven N$g(Steven Nelson),$f1944-$01506963 701 $aAmbrose$b Richard F$g(Richard Francis)$01506964 701 $aDethier$b Megan Nichols$01506965 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777937403321 996 $aMonitoring rocky shores$93737404 997 $aUNINA
