All students and researchers in environmental and biological sciences require statistical methods at some stage of their work. Many have a preconception that statistics are difficult and unpleasant and find that the textbooks available are difficult to understand. Practical Statistics for Environmental and Biological Scientists provides a concise, user-friendly, non-technical introduction to stati…
Как прославиться химику? Очень просто! В честь него могут быть названы открытая им реакция, новое вещество или даже реагент! Но если этого недостаточно, то у такого ученого есть и ещё один способ оставить память о себе: разработать посуду, прибор или другое устройство, которое будет называться его именем. Через годы название этой посуды сократится просто до фамилии ученого – в лаборатории мы редко…
Необыкновенные, потрясающие и абсолютно достоверные факты, о которых вы наверняка не знали.
The recent increase in the search for coal has initiated a dramatic growth in sedimentological research on the origin, formation and environment of coal deposition. This publication is concerned with perhaps the most important field of coal research, that of coal environments. This subject involves many interrelated disciplines, including the sedimentology, petrology, geochemistry, palaeobotany an…
This first IAS Special Publication contains the oral presentations from a special symposium on pelagic sediments held in Zurich in 1973. The aim of the symposium was to bring together sea-borne researchers involved with the Deep Sea Drilling Project and land-locked researchers studying ancient sediments. If you are a member of the International Association of Sedimentologists, for purchasing detai…
