Free Download Tropical Peatland Eco-evaluation by Mitsuru Osaki, Nobuyuki Tsuji, Tsuyoshi Kato, Albertus Sulaiman
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 294 Pages | ISBN : 9819967899 | 137.9 MB
This book focuses on eco-evaluation system monitoring and sensing, carbon-water modeling, mapping, and disaster prediction. It is the 3rd book on tropical peatland issues, following 1st "Tropical Peatland Ecosystem" and 2nd "Tropical Peatland Eco-management" publications. Tropical peatland is also a wetland, mangrove, and rainforest. With this nature, two major key elements of tropical peatland are water and forest. This book introduces the relationship and interaction among water, oxygen, and nutrients as well as aspects of the forest as the driving force of carbon stock and the carbon cycle. Eco-evaluation system is key to conserving, managing, and restoring tropical peatlands, however comprehensive system for Eco-evaluation in the Tropics is not yet established. This book reviews and proposes Eco-evaluation methods in the Tropics Ecosystem, focusing mainly on the peatland ecosystem and others, covering Social Capital such as Credit, Bonds, National Accounting, etc.

Malunions Diagnosis, Evaluation and Management (2024)


Free Download Malunions: Diagnosis, Evaluation and Management by Animesh Agarwal
English | EPUB | 2021 | 418 Pages | ISBN : 1071611224 | 161.1 MB
Providing a comprehensive presentation of the diagnosis, evaluation and management of malunions, this generously illustrated text details the current principles, surgical techniques and approaches with these challenging clinical situations. Since each malunion can be fairly specific, the treatment regimens provide guidelines to effectively approach such problems. Opening with a brief overview of the principles of malunions, the remainder of the book is divided by anatomical area and provides evidence-based recommendations, case examples, and preferred treatment/algorithms for both the upper and lower extremities, including the clavicle, proximal and distal humerus, hand and wrist, proximal and distal femur, and tibia and ankle, as well as the pelvis and acetabulum. Specialized circumstances are also discussed, including periprosthetics and joint replacement.

Evaluation des Aufsichtsrats Theoretische Grundlagen und empirische Befunde


Free Download Evaluation des Aufsichtsrats: Theoretische Grundlagen und empirische Befunde By Malte Debus (auth.)
2010 | 215 Pages | ISBN: 3834921785 | PDF | 1 MB
Als eine Ursache für negative Unternehmensentwicklungen in deutschen Aktiengesellschaften gilt regelmäßig die unzureichende Überwachung des Vorstands durch den Aufsichtsrat. In einer empirischen Studie analysiert Malte Debus die Effektivität und die Effizienz von Gestaltungsvarianten des Aufsichtsrats. Er zeigt, dass die Unternehmensstrategie und die damit verbundene Umweltkomplexität die Erfolgswirkung der personellen Zusammensetzung des Aufsichtsrats, seiner unternehmenspolitischen Kompetenz und der Organisation des Entscheidungsprozesses beeinflusst. Aus den Ergebnissen der Untersuchung werden Kriterien für die Evaluation des Aufsichtsrats abgeleitet.

The Doctrines Of US Security Policy An Evaluation Under International Law


Free Download The Doctrines Of US Security Policy: An Evaluation Under International Law By Heiko Meiertöns
2010 | 332 Pages | ISBN: 0521766486 | PDF | 2 MB
The practise of outlining principles for the conduct of US security policy in so-called doctrines is a characteristic feature of US foreign policy. From an international lawyer’s point of view two aspects of these doctrines are of particular interest. First, to what degree are the criteria for the use of force, as laid down in these doctrines, consistent with the limitations for the use of force in international law? Second, which law-creating effects do these doctrines have? Furthermore, the legal nature of these doctrines remains uncertain. These matters are examined, beginning with the Monroe Doctrine of 1823 and taking into account the Stimson Doctrine of 1932, the doctrines of the Cold-War period and the Bush Doctrine of 2002. The Bush Doctrine in particular has generated controversies concerning its compatibility with Article 51 of the UN Charter, due to its principle of preventive self-defence.

Safety Evaluation of Biotechnologically-derived Pharmaceuticals Facilitating a Scientific Approach


Free Download Safety Evaluation of Biotechnologically-derived Pharmaceuticals: Facilitating a Scientific Approach By John Lipani (auth.), Susan A. Griffiths, Cyndy E. Lumley (eds.)
1998 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 9401060436 | PDF | 13 MB
Considerable investment has been made by both pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in pharmaceutical products of biotechnology. However, because relatively few of these products have been marketed, lack of relevant experience means that uncertainty still surrounds the most appropriate strategy for their safety evaluation. The 13th CMR International Workshop, held in February 1997, provided the opportunity for regulatory authority and industry experts from Europe, Japan and the USA to share their experiences of designing safety evaluation programmes for specific product classes: colony stimulating factors, growth factors, hormones, interferons, interleukins, monoclonal antibodies for therapeutic use, and gene therapy products. Participants worked together to recommend those studies that should be considered for such safety evaluation, and those that may be unnecessary. These recommendations subsequently made a valuable contribution to the ICH guideline `Safety Studies for Biotechnological Products’, which was finalised at ICH 4 in Brussels in July 1997. The Workshop proceedings not only describe the recommendations but also provide the reader with an appreciation of the science behind safety evaluation strategies used by experts, the influence of different regulatory systems on these strategies, and the type of data required by both toxicologists and clinicians before they have sufficient confidence to administer pharmaceutical products of biotechnology to humans.
