This book should be of interest to foresters and specialists in remote sensing, as well as those involved in teaching and practical applications of aerial photographic, satellite and other remotely-sensed data in forestry. ...

This volume of proceedings contains the plenary lectures and selected contributed papers which were given at the Fifth International Petrozavodsk Conference on Probabilistic Methods in Discrete Mathematics, 1-6 June 2000, Petrozavodsk, Russia. The themes of the conference covered almost all areas of discrete mathematics, such as probabilistic problems of combinatorics, statistical problems of discrete mathematics, theory of random graphs, ...

Low-temperature geochemistry deals with geological and chemical processes, and the geochemical evolution of elements in nature below 200 centigrade, including mineralization at room temperature and below 0 centigrade. ...

The book should be useful to transporting professionals, researchers and technicians in the field of urban and extra-urban traffic and transportation management. ...

This volume contains the refereed papers from the ESA/NASA workshop, which are arranged by topic, as well as the working group reports. This proceedings volume should be of interest to researchers in the fields of microwave radiometry and remote sensing. ...

This is a summary of the results obtained by the authors during the past 20 years from their studies in combining the geochemistry of natural gases with that of noble gases. The book focuses on the gas constitution of the noble gases helium and argon, their isotopic composition in oil/gas reservoirs in the major oil-gas-bearing basins in China, and their geochemical implications, as well as the geochemical characteristics of noble gases and ...

The focus of this volume is on adhesion phenomena, surface properties and the surface characterization of plasma-treated materials. The book opens with a critical review of the plasma surface modification of polymers for improved adhesion. The remainder of the papers are divided into two sections, one dealing with the characterization of plasma-treated surfaces, and the second concerned with various practical applications of plasma-treated ...

The book should be of use to researchers and postgraduate students in the field of pure and applied mathematics, physics, biology and engineering. ...

This region, which has considerable economic potential as a source of petroleum, gas and minerals, has been for some years the scene of intense activity by exploration geologists and provincial geological surveys. A vast reservoir of information on stratigraphy, palaeontology, tectonics and geochemistry produced by these workers was consulted for incorporation in this book. Their reports, often written in Chinese and not formally published, ...

All articles in the proceedings have been refereed and keynote papers have been included in Volume 1. These proceedings aim to present a view of contemporary geology and should be of interest to researchers in the geological sciences. ...
