Strut-Cable Systems (DLGs) 330 $a The structural morphology working group of the International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures, founded in 1991, has helped to launch several international seminars, newsletters and specific sessions of international conferences devoted to structural morphology. This book contains papers that have been selected either for their fundamental contribution to structural morphology or for their actual pertinence in the field. Polyhedral geometry, double-curved surfaces, biological structures, foldable systems, form-finding techniques, and free form design are some of the topics included 606 $aStructural analysis (Engineering) 606 $aStructural design 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aStructural analysis (Engineering) 615 0$aStructural design. 676 $a624.1 676 $a624.1/7 676 $a624.17 701 $aMotro$b Rene?$f1946-$0596330 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455589803321 996 $aAn anthology of structural morphology$92172431 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05186nam 2200985Ia 450 001 9910792090203321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-283-59445-5 010 $a9786613906908 010 $a0-520-95401-7 024 7 $a10.1525/9780520954014 035 $a(CKB)2560000000092965 035 $a(EBL)1021172 035 $a(OCoLC)811505147 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000720468 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11467339 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000720468 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10668922 035 $a(PQKB)10611382 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0000107577 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1021172 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse31066 035 $a(DE-B1597)518893 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780520954014 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1021172 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10599101 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL390690 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000092965 100 $a20120607d2012 ub 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aEcology, conservation, and restoration of tidal marshes$b[electronic resource] $ethe San Francisco estuary /$fedited by Arnas Palaima 210 $aBerkeley $cUniversity of California Press$dc2012 215 $a1 online resource (289 p.) 225 1 $aA Stephen Bechtel fund book in ecology and the environment 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-520-27429-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $tFrontmatter -- $tContents -- $tContributors -- $tForeword: Some Thoughts On San Francisco Bay And Its Wetlands -- $tPreface And Acknowledgments -- $t1.

Today, most of these wetlands have disappeared under the demands of coastal development, and those that remain cling precariously to a drastically altered coastline. This volume is a collaborative effort of nearly 40 scholars in which the wealth of scientific knowledge available on tidal wetlands of the San Francisco Estuary is summarized and integrated. This book addresses issues of taxonomy, geomorphology, toxicology, the impact of climate change, ecosystem services, public policy, and conservation, and it is an essential resource for ecologists, environmental scientists, coastal policymakers, and researchers interested in estuaries and conserving and restoring coastal wetlands around the world. 410 0$aStephen Bechtel fund book in ecology and the environment. 606 $aWetlands$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco Bay Area 606 $aEstuaries$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco Bay Area 606 $aEcology$zCalifornia$zSan Francisco Bay Area 607 $aSan Francisco Bay Watershed (Calif.) 610 $aamerican history. 610 $abiology in california. 610 $abooks for history lovers. 610 $acalifornia environment. 610 $acarbon emission. 610 $acoffee table books. 610 $aconserving the environment. 610 $aeasy to read. 610 $aenvironmental ecosystems. 610 $ageomorphology. 610 $ago green. 610 $ahistorical. 610 $ahistory of california. 610 $ahistory of san francisco bay. 610 $ahome school science books. 610 $aimpact of climate change. 610 $alearning while reading. 610 $aleisure reads. 610 $anatural history. 610 $anonfiction books. 610 $ascience of california. 610 $ataxonomy. 610 $atoxicology. 610 $awetlands of san francisco. 610 $awritten by scholars. 615 0$aWetlands 615 0$aEstuaries 615 0$aEcology 676 $a333.7309794/6 701 $aPalaima$b Arnas$01575000 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792090203321 996 $aEcology, conservation, and restoration of tidal marshes$93851663 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01420nam0 22003011i 450 001 UON00216008 005 20231205103354.228 100 $a20030730d1964 |0itac50 ba 101 $aswe 102 $aSE 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aLitteraturhistoriska argument$estudier i en vetenskaps metodpraxis$fSven Linnér 210 $aStockholm$cSvenska Bokförlaget ; Bonniers$d1964.
