Optical Fiber Multiplexing and Emerging Techniques
Автор: Syed H Murshid
Год издания: 0000
This book begins with the history and fundamentals of optical fiber communications. Then, briefly introduces existing optical multiplexing techniques and finally focuses on spatial domain multiplexing (SDM), aka space division multiplexing, and orbital angular momentum of photon based multiplexing. These are two emerging multiplexing techniques that have added two new degrees of photon freedom to optical fibers.

Речной бобр (Castor fiber L.) как ключевой вид экосистемы малой реки (на примере Приокско-Террасного государственного биосферного природного заповедника)
Автор: Коллектив авторов
Год издания:
Коллективная монография посвящена средообразующей деятельности речного бобра – ключевого вида малых рек Приокско-Террасного заповедника. Изучение динамики численности и распределения бобров в водоемах заповедника проводится более 60 лет, с первых дней реинтродукции. Рассмотрены общие природные характеристики заповедника, включая климат, рельеф, гидрологическую сеть, характеристику флоры и фауны. Представлены особенности обитания речного бобра, включая детальное описание многолетней динамики численности с характеристикой изменения размещения поселений, строительной деятельности, особенностей кормодобывания, влияния хищников и вербальное описание изменения местообитаний на территории заповедника. Особое внимание уделено математическим моделям, предназначенным для выявления основных тенденций изменения численности и построения прогноза популяционной динамики с учетом особенностей экологии вида. Охарактеризованы различные аспекты влияния бобров на водные и околоводные экосистемы малой реки Таденки, даны количественные и качественные характеристики влияния деятельности бобра на зоопланктон, макрозообентос, размножение амфибий, динамику черноольшаника и высшую водную растительность в местообитаниях речного бобра. Обсуждаются потенциальные возможности применения космических снимков среднего (Landsat 7) и сверхвысокого (IKONOS, GeoEye-1) пространственного разрешения для картирования объектов жизнедеятельности бобров. Данная монография будет интересна и полезна широкому кругу ученых – зоологам, гидробиологам и ботаникам, специалистам, работающим на стыке геоматики и экологии. Знание средообразующей деятельности бобра важно для специалистов, работающих в области сохранения биологического разнообразия, заповедного дела и рыбного хозяйства, а также для студентов и аспирантов.

Emerging Markets in an Upside Down World. Challenging Perceptions in Asset Allocation and Investment
Автор: Jerome Booth
Год издания:
The world is upside down. The emerging market countries are more important than many investors realise. They have been catching up with the West over the past few decades. Greater market freedom has spread since the end of the Cold War, and with it institutional changes which have further assisted emerging economies in becoming more productive, flexible, and resilient. The Western financial crisis from 2008 has quickened the pace of the relative rise of emerging markets – their relative economic power, and with it political power, but also their financial power as savers, investors and creditors. Emerging Markets in an Upside Down World – Challenging Perceptions in Asset Allocation and Investment argues that finance theory has misunderstood risk and that this has led to poor investment decisions; and that emerging markets constitute a good example of why traditional finance theory is faulty. The book accurately describes the complex and changing global environment currently facing the investor and asset allocator. It raises many questions often bypassed because of the use of simplifying assumptions and models. The narrative builds towards a checklist of issues and questions for the asset allocator and investor and then to a discussion of a variety of regulatory and policy issues. Aimed at institutional and retail investors as well as economics, finance, business and international relations students, Emerging Markets in an Upside Down World covers many complex ideas, but is written to be accessible to the non-expert.
