Book Energy Poverty and Access Challenges in Sub Saharan Africa

Download or read book Energy Poverty and Access Challenges in Sub Saharan Africa written by Victoria R. Nalule and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-27 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Access to modern energy is central in addressing the major global challenges of the 21st century, including poverty, climate change and famine. However large parts of the world, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) have poor or no access to modern energy. Victoria Nalule argues that SSA countries have many common energy challenges which could be tackled with collective efforts through regional cooperation. By means of a legal and comparative analysis and a seven-step framework, the book explores the current regional mechanisms employed in Africa to address the challenge of energy poverty and access and whether they are effective in tackling the challenge of energy access, including regional energy infrastructure and regional energy regulations. Chapters discuss the evolution of regionalism in SSA and the role of regional cooperation in the development of renewable energy as a means of confronting both energy access and climate change. Specifically the nexus between energy access, renewable energy and climate change is covered as well as the potential of fossil fuels in addressing energy poverty. The establishment and development of regional energy infrastructure as one of the mechanisms of addressing energy access challenges in SSA and regional efforts to harmonise energy regulation are explored. Finally a concluding chapter provides recommendations for policy makers and other relevant stakeholders on how best to implement some of the suggestions made in previous chapters. International organisations, regional organisations, government officials, scholars and students with interest in the energy sector will highly benefit from this book.

Book Brines and Evaporites

  • Author : Peter Sonnenfeld
  • Publisher : American Geophysical Union
  • Release : 1991-01-08
  • ISBN : 9780875907079
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Brines and Evaporites written by Peter Sonnenfeld and published by American Geophysical Union. This book was released on 1991-01-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Short Courses in Geology Series, Volume 3. This course is designed to present fundamental concepts and constraints of evaporitic mineral precipitation in different depositional environments, a discussion of the concentration of attendant accessory accumulations of clastics, base metals and hydrocarbons, an integrated overview of epigenetic alteration of evaporite deposits, and a systematic analysis of ancient evaporite basin configurations. These notes present case histories of current evaporite deposition in the hope that they will provide the keys to a better understanding of ancient salt basins. The data presented here essentially rely on basins studied by the author and his coworkers. Although this choice may appear somewhat limited to some readers familiar with classical models, the examples shown here cover the main present-day geological settings. Furthermore, observations on pre-evaporitic deposits were also introduced.

Book Economic Geology

  • Author : Walter L. Pohl
  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2011-03-03
  • ISBN : 144439486X
  • Pages : 725 pages

Download or read book Economic Geology written by Walter L. Pohl and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 725 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity’s ever-increasing hunger for mineral raw materials, caused by a growing global population and ever increasing standards of living, has resulted in economic geology becoming a subject of urgent importance. This book provides a broad panorama of mineral deposits, covering their origin and geological characteristics, the principles of the search for ores and minerals, and the investigation of newly found deposits. Practical and environmental issues that arise during the life cycle of a mine and after its closure are addressed, with an emphasis on sustainable and "green" mining. The central scientific theme of the book is to place the extraordinary variability of mineral deposits in the frame of fundamental geological processes. The book is written for earth science students and practicing geologists worldwide. Professionals in administration, resource development, mining, mine reclamation, metallurgy, and mineral economics will also find the text valuable. Economic Geology is a fully revised translation of the the fifth edition of the German language text Mineralische und Energie-Rohstoffe.

Book Primates in Fragments

  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2013-09-07
  • ISBN : 1461488397
  • Pages : 543 pages

Download or read book Primates in Fragments written by Laura K. Marsh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-07 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is number two in a series for Primates in Fragments. In this volume, ten years after the first http://www.springer.com/social+sciences/anthropology+%26+archaeology/book/978-0-306-47696-9, we continue to address issues regarding primates within a fractured landscape. There are seven sections based on specific categories of primates in fragments. In the Introductory section, authors discuss the issues surrounding primates in remnant habitats as well as encourage discussion about what we mean by fragmentation on a landscape scale. In the Long-Term and Regional Studies section, authors present information on changes that have occurred during longer studies as well as changes that have occurred over regions. In the Landscape, Metapopulations and the Matrix section, authors cover topics from dry to moist forests, and from metapopulations to single species use of multiple fragments locations. In Feeding and Behavioral Ecology, authors take a closer look at the flexibility and responsiveness of primates in fragments in terms of their food choices, resource use, and behavioral changes. In Endemic, Endangered, and Nocturnal Primates authors uncover details involving critical primates living in major city centers to the heights of the Himalayas. In Genetics, Disease and Parasites authors cover topics including population viability, disease and parasite transmission between primates in fragments and humans. Finally, in the Conservation and Ecology: Threats and Management section, we synthesize information in this volume and make recommendations for the future of work in this field and the survivability of primates in fragments.
