Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 312 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | East African states have historically shared several resources including energy and common heritage of its people. This book provides information on available sources of energy in the region and how the energy suppliers can exploit them in an integrated form to produce the right blend of energy for various applications e.g., industrial, domestic and recreational uses. We provide an in-depth analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of different energy sources in-terms of environmental, industrialization, distribution costs and impacts. We hope that the book will contribute towards a sustainable exploitation of energy resources for the improvement of the people¿s quality of life.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book providesinformation on the distribution of the available energy resources throughoutthe continent and how it is linked to the development of individual states.Africa is considered one of the poorest continents in the world, mainly becauseits development has historically depended on imported resources includingtechnical expertise. This view and its associated resource management strategyare based on the perception that Africa lacks sufficient energy resources todrive its development agenda. Analyses of individual countries' energy potentials,exploitation levels and distribution mechanisms are provided with a view toidentifying additional factors that are stifling Africa's economic development.One critical factor is the relationship between available energy resources andthe energy mixes chosen by different states, and how these can be exploited toproduce the right blend of energy for various applications such as industrial,transport, domestic, and recreational uses. The authors provide an in-depthanalysis of the advantages and disadvantages of different energy sources interms of their environmental, industrialization and distribution costs,impacts, and the development options best suited for improving Africa'seconomic situation. This analysis is based on the assertion that Africa is indeedblessed with abundant energy resources, which have not been effectivelyexploited. The book not only reviews Africa's energy situation in general, but also revealsthat, while there are certainly circumstances peculiar to individual countries, the similarities, especially within Sub-Saharan African countries, outweigh the differences. That being said, the challenges and available opportunities in each country should be viewed with due consideration given to the prevailing national resource management environment. Many initiatives in Africa fail because of the many loopholes in the management structures, which allow corruption, theft, and mere selfishness to thrive. In addition to the negative impacts of these factors on implementation activities, there is also a general lack of institutional support for initiatives that could otherwise be very progressive. Thus, taken together, these retrogressive practices stifle African energy development plans. The book offers a valuable guide for developers, investors, researchers and environmentalist, providing in-depth insights on the relationship between available energy resources and development trends in Africa.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Improved geospatial instrumentation and technology such as in laser scanning has now resulted in millions of data being collected, e.g., point clouds. It is in realization that such huge amount of data requires efficient and robust mathematical solutions that this third edition of the book extends the second edition by introducing three new chapters: Robust parameter estimation, Multiobjective optimization and Symbolic regression. Furthermore, the linear homotopy chapter is expanded to include nonlinear homotopy. These disciplines are discussed first in the theoretical part of the book before illustrating their geospatial applications in the applications chapters where numerous numerical examples are presented. The renewed electronic supplement contains these new theoretical and practical topics, with the corresponding Mathematica statements and functions supporting their computations introduced and applied. This third edition is renamed in light of these technological advancements.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is useful to those in water resources management and policy formulations, hydrologists, environmentalists, engineers and researchers.Exploitingadvanced statistical techniquesand thelatest state-of-the-art multi-mission satellites, surface modelsand reanalysis products,this book provides the first comprehensive weighing of the changes in the Nile River Basin's(NRB:~ 3,400,000 km2)stored waters' compartments, surface, soil moisture and groundwater, and their association to climate variability/change and anthropogenic impacts on the one hand.On the other hand, it argues on the need forequitable use of the NRB's watersby all 11 countries within its basin, anddoing away with obsolete Nile treatiesthat were signed by Britain, Egypt and Sudan, which prohibit the use of the Nile by 8 upstream countries. With Ethiopia's construction of Africa's largest dam (GERD; Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam) along the Blue Nile, which is expected to take several years to fill, the Nile is back on the news. Combined with Uganda's Nalubaale, Kiira and Bujagali dams on the White Nile, these human-induced impacts (i.e., damming), coupled with those of climate variability/change,are expected to exacerbate tension with the low stream countries (Egypt and Sudan) fearing the cut in theNile's total volume. Furthermore, the Nile river, arguably the world's longest river (6800 km), impacts on the livelihood of over 300 million people of 11 countries within its basin. This population is expected to double in the next twenty-five years,thereby putting extreme pressure on its water resources. An in-depth analysis of changes in the Nile's stored waters, therefore, is essential to inform its management and sustainable equitable use. Owing to its sheer size, however, obtaining in-situ data from'boots on the ground'is practically impossible,paving way to the space-based weighing of the Nile River Basin using a suite of high spatio-temporal remotely sensed and reanalysis products, as well as those of hydrological models.'Arguably, the Nile River is the most unique river in the world. It spans extremes of rainfall from being measured by meters to being measured by centimeters, from the humid tropics to the driest of deserts. Yet, thirsty people live throughout this basin and therefore the demands on its water resources are uneven. Knowing the water amounts throughout the entire Nile Basin is a critical step for governments and international treaties to avoid the 'Tragedy of the Commons'. Africa can embrace this future through the leadership of Prof. Awange and others like him who have devoted their careers to Africa's waters'-Doug Alsdorf, Ph.D., Professor of Geophysics at the Ohio State University (USA).…
