The abundance of marine life described by 15th century seafarers is almost unimaginable today, but Roberts both brings it alive and artfully traces its depletion. Collapsing fisheries, he shows, are simply the latest chapter in a long history of unfettered commercialization of the seas."--Jacket 606 $aOcean and civilization 606 $aOcean$xHistory 615 0$aOcean and civilization. 615 0$aOcean$xHistory. 676 $a909/.09 686 $a56.36.20$2EP-CLASS 700 $aRoberts$b Callum$01811643 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969662103321 996 $aThe unnatural history of the sea$94363647 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03267oam 2200493z- 450 001 9911019786103321 005 20230120050224.0 010 $a9781118676189 010 $a1118676181 010 $a9781118676172 010 $a1118676173 010 $a9781118676165 010 $a1118676165 035 $a(CKB)4330000000006747 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5162091 035 $a(VLeBooks)9781118676172 035 $a(JP-MeL)3000133139 035 $a(Perlego)994919 035 $a(EXLCZ)994330000000006747 100 $a20190805d2017 uy | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n||||un||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aX-ray Absorption Spectroscopy for the Chemical and Materials Sciences 205 $aFirst edition 210 $aHoboken, N.J.$cWiley$d2018 215 $a1 online resource (197 p.) 300 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index 311 08$a9781119990901 311 08$a1119990904 330 $a A clear-cut introduction to the technique and applications of x-ray absorption spectroscopy X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy is being applied to a widening set of disciplines. Applications started with solid state physics and grew to materials science, chemistry, biochemistry and geology. Now, they cut across engineering materials, environmental science and national heritage - providing very detailed and useful information facilitating understanding and development of materials. This practical guide helps investigators choose the right experiment, carry it out properly and analyze the data to give the best reliable result. It gives readers insights to extract what they need from the world of large-scale experimental facilities like synchrotrons, which seem distant to many laboratory scientists.  X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy for the Chemical and Materials Sciences  seeks to educate readers about the strengths and limitations of the techniques, including their accessibility. Presented in six sections, it offers chapters that cover: an introduction to X-ray absorption fine structure XAFS; the basis of XAFS; X-ray sources; experimental methods; data analysis and simulation methods; and case studies. A no-nonsense introduction to the technique and applications of x-ray absorption spectroscopy Features Questions to support learning through the book Relevant to all working on synchrotron sources and applications in physics, materials, environment/geology and biomedical materials Four-color representation allows easy interpretation of images and data for the reader X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy for the Chemical and Materials Sciences  is aimed at Masters-level and PhD students embarking on X-ray spectroscopy projects as well as scientists in areas of materials characterization.  606 $6880-03/$1$aExtended X-ray absorption fine structure 615 0$aExtended X-ray absorption fine structure. 676 $a543.62 686 $a433.5$2njb/09 686 $a425.5$2njb/09 686 $a543.62$2njb/09 801 1$bJP-MeL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911019786103321 996 $aX-ray Absorption Spectroscopy for the Chemical and Materials Sciences$94422948 997 $aUNINA
