title : Carnivoran Ecology : The Evolution and Function of Communities Type de document : printed text Auteur : Steven W. Buskirk, Author Editeur : london : Oxford University Press Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 267p. Dimensions : 25*19 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-0-19-286325-6 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : zlg Résumé : These charismatic mammals, which include dogs, cats, hyenas, weasels, mongooses, seals, sea lions an d bears, have always held special importance to humans throughout history and continue to do so today. In recent decades, the emergence of new technologies has completely transformed our knowledge of how carnivorans interact with their environments and consequently reshaped our view of carnivoran ecology. This unique synthesis uses examples from a diverse and expanding carnivoran literature, drawing from all carnivoran families and spanning the world's oceans and continents, to produce a clearly written and richly illustrated book that reviews our current state of knowledge of carnivoran ecology. It addresses all levels of biological organization and function, from genes to enzymes, organisms, populations, and ecosystems. Special attention is given to how carnivoran species interact with their prey, each other, and humans. There is an emphasis on community interactions and their importance in carnivoran evolution, showing how evolutionary constraints (morphological, physiological, and behavioral) structure communities today. The book's approach is strongly comparative, contrasting herbivores with carnivores, predators with scavengers, and cats with dogs. Carnivorans play important roles in many high-profile conservation cases, either as species of concern or agents of endangerment, and their importance is demonstrated in both contexts. Carnivoran Ecology is an accessible advanced textbook aimed principally at senior undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in carnivore ecology, as well as a broad audience of professional academics (especially carnivore and mammalian biologists), researchers, and practitioners working in both governmental and non-governmental organizations. A significant secondary market will exist amongst the large amateur naturalist community including those wishing to explore the ecological and evolutionary links between domestic carnivorans (dogs, cats, ferrets etc.) and their wild counterparts.

title : A Course on Plasticity Theory Type de document : printed text Auteur : David Steigmann, Author Editeur : london : Oxford University Press Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 198p. Dimensions : 24*17 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-0-19-288315-5 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : Ens Résumé : La théorie de la plasticité se caractérise par de nombreux points de vue concurrents et souvent inco mpatibles. Ce livre cherche à renforcer les fondements de la théorie de la plasticité du continuum, mettant l'accent sur une perspective unificatrice fondée sur la notion fondamentale de symétrie matérielle. Le livre de Steigmann offre un cadre systématique pour la bonne compréhension des modèles établis de plasticité et pour leurs extensions et généralisations modernes. Un accent particulier est mis sur les aspects géométriques différentiels du sujet et leur rôle dans l'illumination des fondements conceptuels de la théorie de la plasticité. Les modèles classiques, ainsi que plusieurs sujets d'intérêt pour la recherche contemporaine, sont développés dans un format unifié. Le livre s'adresse aux étudiants diplômés et aux universitaires travaillant dans le domaine de la mécanique du continuum.

title : A Primer on Stable Isotopes in Ecology Type de document : printed text Auteur : Francesca Cotrufo, Author Editeur : london : Oxford University Press Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 107p. Dimensions : 24*17 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-0-19-885449-4 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : ngv Résumé : In the past few decades, the field of ecology has made huge advancements thanks to stable isotopes. Ecologists need to understand the principles of stable isotopes to fully appreciate many studies in their discipline. Ecologists also need to be aware of isotopic approaches to enrich their “toolbox” for further advancing the discipline. A Primer on Stable Isotopes in Ecology is a concise and foundational resource for anyone interested in acquiring theoretical and practical knowledge for the application of stable isotopes in ecology. Readers will gain a more in-depth and complete knowledge of stable isotopes and explore isotopic methods used in ecological research, learning about stable isotope definitions, measurement, ecological processes, and applications in research. Chapters include in-depth descriptions of stable isotopes and their notation, isotope fractionation, isotope mixing, heavy isotope enrichment, and quantification methods by mass spectrometry and laser spectroscopy. The text guides readers to think "isotopically” to better understand research conducted using stable isotopes. The book also provides basic practical skills and activities to apply stable isotope methods in ecological research. It includes 5 activities through which readers can apply their knowledge to real-world problems and improve their skills for interpreting and using stable isotopes in ecological research. This book is designed for students and scientists from different backgrounds who share the common interest in stable isotopes.

title : Statistical Mechanics : Theory and Molecular Simulation Type de document : printed text Auteur : Mark E. Tuckerman, Author Mention d'édition : 2.éd Editeur : london : Oxford University Press Date de publication : 2023 Nombre de pages : 860p. Dimensions : 24*17 ISBN (ou autre code) : 978-0-19-882556-2 Langue : English (eng) Langue originale : English (eng) Indexation : phy Résumé : Scientists are increasingly finding themselves engaged in research problems that cross the tradition al disciplinary lines of physics, chemistry, biology, materials science, and engineering. Because of its broad scope, statistical mechanics is an essential tool for students and more experienced researchers planning to become active in such an interdisciplinary research environment. Powerful computational methods that are based in statistical mechanics allow complex systems to be studied at an unprecedented level of detail. This book synthesizes the underlying theory of statistical mechanics with the computational techniques and algorithms used to solve real-world problems and provides readers with a solid foundation in topics that reflect the modern landscape of statistical mechanics. Topics covered include detailed reviews of classical and quantum mechanics, in-depth discussions of the equilibrium ensembles and the use of molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo to sample classical and quantum ensemble distributions, Feynman path integrals, classical and quantum linear-response theory, nonequilibrium molecular dynamics, the Langevin and generalized Langevin equations, critical phenomena, techniques for free energy calculations, machine learning models, and the use of these models in statistical mechanics applications. The book is structured such that the theoretical underpinnings of each topic are covered side by side with computational methods used for practical implementation of the theoretical concepts.
