        Soil Hydrology, Land Use and Agriculture

        Measurement and Modelling

        by Edited by Manoj K Shukla.

        Agriculture is strongly affected by changes in soil hydrology as well as by changes in land use and management practices and the complex interactions between them. This book aims to expand our knowledge and understanding of these interactions on a watershed scale, using soil hydrology models, and to address the consequences of land use and management changes on agriculture from a research perspective. Case studies illustrate the impact of land use and management practices on various soil hydrological parameters under different climates and ecosystems.

        The Medical Miscellany

        by Manoj Ramachandran

        With the average medical textbook now over one thousand pages long and newspapers daily devoting many columns to health issues, no individual can know more than the bare essentials of the subject. What better then than to dip into a small book covering only the amazing, the bizarre, and the amusing? This fascinating collection of medically-related items will inform, tantalize, and infuriate you by turns. How can you tell if a murder victim was left- or right-handed? How many euphemisms can you think of for unmentionable parts of the body? What has chickenpox got to do with chickens? Who has played Doc Holliday in the movies? Does a famous doctor share your birthday? We challenge you not to find something unexpected on every page nor to smile, or groan, at almost every entry. How much do you know already? How much will you be able to remember? After much dipping in and out, or from referring to the topic-based index, you will know what '100 per cent proof' really means for an alcoholic drink and what the effect of drinking Ayahuasca is. You will also know when two doctors in casualty earnestly discuss your 'UBI', they have smelt your breath and are talking about your 'unexplained beer injury'. Some facts just are more memorable than others...

        by Manoj Ramachandran, Max Ronson

        Do you know: How to tell if a murder victim was left- or right-handed? More than 100 euphemisms for unmentionable parts of the body? Who has played Doc Holliday in the movies? Which famous doctor shares your birthday? (though we couldn't quite find someone for every day of the year...) Read this book to see if you have the right answer. This fascinating collection of medically related items will give you a perspective on medicine and health care not available from other books. After much dipping in and out, or from referring to the topic-based index, you will know what 100% proof really means for an alcohoic drink and how you are likely to feel if you drink Ayahuasca. You will also know when two doctors in Casualty earnestly discuss your 'UBI' they have smelt your breath and are talking about your 'unexplained beer injury'.

        Psocids as Global Pests of Stored Products

        by Christos G Athanassiou, Manoj K. Nayak

        Psocids have become widespread pests of stored products during the last two decades, yet little was known about their biology and management until this change in their pest status. The aim of this book is to synthesize current information on biology and management of these stored-product insect pests. The book covers their identification, biology and ecology, monitoring, chemical and non-chemical control, resistance to insecticides, molecular biology, and the future of stored-product psocid research. This is the first ever comprehensive book on Psocids infesting stored products and is written by a carefully selected list of experts on these pests. It is essential reading for all those involved in the control of pests in stored products and post-harvest systems, students and researchers in applied entomology and pest management practitioners in general.

        Hyperspectral Remote Sensing and Spectral Signature Applications

        by S. Rajendran, S.Aravindran, T.Jeyavel Rajakumar, R. Sivakumar & K.R. Murali Mohan

        Hyperspectral imaging is an emerging modern technique in modern remote sensing that expands and removes capability of multispectral image analysis. It takes advantage of hundreds of continuous spectral channels to uncover materials that usually cannot be resolved by multispectral sensoThis book is a collection of research papers of Indian scientist working in the field of hyperspectral remote sensing and spectral signature applications. This has been organized in a way that all the s are logically connected and can be referred back and the forth one another for more details. The title of hyperspectral remote sensing and spectral signature applications is use to reflect its focus on spectral techniques, i.e. non-literal techniques that are especially designed and developed for hyperspectral imagery rather than multispectral imagery.
