Life in Extreme Environments

This book provides an intriguing look at how life can adapt to many different extreme environments. It addresses the limits for life development and examines different strategies used by organisms to adapt to different extreme environments.

Extreme Conflict and Tropical Forests

This book provides a timely insight into the relationships between extreme conflict, the international trade in forest products, and the social, economic and environmental condition of tropical forests and their human communities.

Extreme Values in Random Sequences - Pavle Mladenovic

The main subject is the probabilistic extreme value theory. The purpose is to present recent results related to limiting distributions of maxima in incomplete samples from stationary sequences, and results related to extremal properties of different combinatorial configurations. The necessary contents related to regularly varying functions and basic results of extreme value theory are included in the first two chapters with examples, exercises and supplements. The motivation for consideration maxima..

Algae and Cyanobacteria in Extreme Environments

This collection of essays is devoted to algae that are unexpectedly found in harsh habitats. The authors explain how these algae thrive in various temperature ranges, extreme pH values, salt solutions, UV radiation, dryness, heavy metals, anaerobic niches, various levels of illumination, and hydrostatic pressure.

European Trend Atlas of Extreme Temperature and Precipitation Records - Phil Jones

This Atlas presents records of climatic variability and change in Europe starting before 1901 and focuses especially on trends of extreme temperatures and precipitation. The Atlas clearly shows that climate in Europe has changed over the last 100 to 150 years, such that the occurrence and intensity of warm temperature extremes have increased.

Climate Disaster Preparedness - Reimagining Extreme Events Through Art and Technology - Dennis del Favero

As a result of global warming, extreme events, such as firestorms and flash floods, pose increasingly unpredictable and uncertain existential threats, taking lives, destroying communities, and wreaking havoc on habitats. Current aesthetic, technological and scientific frameworks struggle to imagine, visualise and rehearse human interactions with these events, hampering the development of proactive foresight, readiness and response.This open access book demonstrates how the latest advances in creative..

Extreme Ocean Waves

The book details the vast progress that has been achieved in the understanding of the physical mechanisms of rogue wave phenomenon in recent years. The book uses fully nonlinear hydrodynamic numerical models to discuss the phenomenon.

Weather and Climate Extremes - Changes, Variations and a Perspective from the Insurance Industry

This book represents a major step forwards in developing a comprehensive set of information about changes in extreme events by providing a review of the problems in data availability, quality and analysis that make deriving a clear picture of world-wide changes in extreme events so difficult.

Performance Analysis of Real-Time Embedded Software - Yau-Tsun Steven Li

To design these systems, sophisticated timing analysis tools are needed to accurately determine the extreme case (best case and worst case) performance of the software components. The technique determines the bounds on the extreme case (best case and worst case) execution time of a program when running on a given hardware system.

Agrometeorological Applications for Climate Resilient Agriculture - Nabansu Chattopadhyay

Addresses extreme weather impacts on cropsFocuses on pest and disease studyDeals with application of fertilizers based on climate predictionDiscusses climate change and proper land use

Enigmatic Microorganisms and Life in Extreme Environments

Modern methods and approaches, such as the analysis of molecular sequences to infer evolutionary relationships among organisms, have provided vast new sets of data to further our understanding ofliving organisms, but there remain enigmas in the biological world that will keep scientists working and thinking for decades.

Climate Time Series Analysis - Classical Statistical and Bootstrap Methods - Manfred Mudelsee

It shows the bootstrap to perform reliably in the most important statistical estimation techniques: regression, spectral analysis, extreme values and correlation.This book is written for climatologists and applied statisticians.

This book contains selected papers from the 12th International Conference on Extreme Learning Machines 2022. Extreme learning machines (ELMs) continue to be an important complement to the many deep learning models you can find in the machine learning domain. ELM is fast and therefore suitable for many applications (not only in edge computing), and therefore there is a need to gather examples of possible applications. These proceedings, for the ELM 2022 conference, cover several application areas..

Improved Understanding of Past Climatic Variability from Early Daily European Instrumental Sources

Katz and Brown (1992), for example, show from a theoretical viewpoint that in a changing climate, extreme values are determined more by changes in variability than changes in the mean.

Assessing Risk Assessment - Towards Alternative Risk Measures for Complex Financial Systems - Christian Hugo Hoffmann

Christian Hugo Hoffmann undermines the citadel of risk assessment and management, arguing that classical probability theory is not an adequate foundation for modeling systemic and extreme risk in complex financial systems.
