Powering the Future

How We Will (Eventually) Solve the Energy Crisis and Fuel the Civilization of Tomorrow

by Robert B Laughlin ...

In Powering the Future, Nobel laureate Robert B. Laughlin transports us two centuries into the future, when we've ceased to use carbon from the ground -- either because humans have banned carbon burning or because fuel has simply run out. Boldly, Laughlin predicts no earth-shattering transformations will have taken place. Six generations from now, there will still be soccer moms, shopping malls, ... Read more

The Climate Crisis

An Introductory Guide to Climate Change

by David Archer, Stefan Rahmstorf ...

An incredible wealth of scientific data on global warming has been collected in the last few decades. The history of the Earth's climate has been probed by drilling into polar ice sheets and sediment layers of the oceans' vast depths, and great advances have been made in computer modelling of our climate. This book provides a concise and accessible overview of what we know about ongoing climate ... Read more

3-D Seismic Interpretation

by M. Bacon, R. Simm, T. Redshaw ...

3-D seismic data have become the key tool used in the petroleum industry to understand the subsurface. In addition to providing excellent structural images, the dense sampling of a 3-D survey makes it possible to map reservoir quality and the distribution of oil and gas. Topics covered in this book include basic structural interpretation and map-making; the use of 3-D visualisation methods; ... Read more

Climate Change Scenarios for Hyderabad

Integrating uncertainties and consolidation

by Mathias K. B. Lüdecke, Martin Budde, Oles Kit, Diana Reckien ...

Series Book 1/2010 - Emerging megacities
The paper evaluates the global climate projections of 17 AOGCMs with the aim to project 4 climatic variables under two diﬀerent global emission scenarios (SRES B1 and A2) for the area of Hyderabad (India) for the 21st century. The evaluated model runs were produced within the IPCC AR4 - process. We applied a statistical downscaling to be able to evaluate that large number of model runs. ... Read more

Remote Sensing Image Analysis: Including the Spatial Domain

Edited by Steven M. de Jong, Freek D. van der Meer ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
Remote Sensing image analysis is mostly done using only spectral information on a pixel by pixel basis. Information captured in neighbouring cells, or information about patterns surrounding the pixel of interest often provides useful supplementary information. This book presents a wide range of innovative and advanced image processing methods for including spatial information, captured by ... Read more
