Book excerpt: From the author of Body Trace in the CSU Investigation series. Crime Scene Unit (CSU): A group of forensic investigators who use cutting-edge technology to carry out crime scene investigations, helping to bring killers to justice. There are several things Madison Cross still has to learn about the CSU. For instance, how not to get personally involved in a case, or how to stay out of dangerous situations. And near the top of the list is how to break the bad news to families of the deceased. Especially when it’s a suicide. Such appears to be the case with the OD of Derek Grant, vegetarian and environmentalist. His distraught, wheelchair-bound father Horace has already found the corpse, and the case seems all but closed. But the more Madison investigates, the less Derek’s death makes any sense. As she entangles herself in the web of their perverse family, Madison realizes, to her horror, that the killer is honing in on her. Praise for D.H. Dublin “D.H. Dublin [is] the newest of the blood bards.”—Philadelphia Weekly “[A] brisk, tight novel. Anyone waiting for a CSI: Philadelphia spinoff should be pleased with this.”—Publishers Weekly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Picturing Tropical Nature reflects on the work of several nineteenth- and twentieth-century scientists and artists, including Alexander von Humboldt, Alfred Russel Wallace, Louis Agassiz, Sir Patrick Manson, and Margaret Mee. Their careers illuminate several aspects of tropicalization: science and art in the making of tropical pictures; the commercial and cultural boom in things tropical in the modern period; photographic attempts to represent tropical hybrid races; antitropicalism and its role in an emerging environmentalist sensibility; and visual depictions of disease in the new tropical medicine."--Jacket.

This book was released on 2019-06-07 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we look at our planet’s species distribution, we observe a very interesting pattern: as we move from the Poles to the Equator, the number of species drastically increases. This is what has been called ‘latitudinal gradient of species diversity’. In short, it means that tropical areas, which are located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, harbor a greater number of species than temperate areas. We still don’t know exactly what causes (or have caused) this phenomenon, but we know that it resulted in high endism, that is, a large number of animals and plants unique to these areas. The tropical areas of the globe are an intricate patchwork of various ecosystems. Tropical ecosystems can vary from rainforests to deserts; from savannahs to mangroves, and we have a lot to learn from them. However, in recent years we have witnessed an increase in rates of habitat destruction, particularly in the tropics. Currently, many tropical ecosystems are under threat, as vast areas are devastated to give space to cities, agriculture, and cattle farms. As tropical areas vanish, so do species previously unknown to us, as well as ecological processed specific to these environments. Moreover, due to its global importance, devastation of tropical areas has potential impacts on other non-tropical ecosystems, and may exacerbate climate change, as well as influence the spread of tropical diseases. On the other side of this battle, there are many scientists that dedicated themselves to the study of the fascinating tropical biodiversity. This collection of articles aims at highlighting their contributions to our understanding of tropical patterns and processed leading to this incredible biodiversity. It focuses on the wonders of the tropical areas of the globe, by asking, amongst others, the following questions: Which species of plants and animals are found in tropical areas? What can we learn about tropical ecology and how can this knowledge help us conserve these ecosystems for future generations?

Download or read book Homological Mirror Symmetry and Tropical Geometry written by Ricardo Castano-Bernard and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between Tropical Geometry and Mirror Symmetry goes back to the work of Kontsevich and Y. Soibelman (2000), who applied methods of non-archimedean geometry (in particular, tropical curves) to Homological Mirror Symmetry. In combination with the subsequent work of Mikhalkin on the “tropical” approach to Gromov-Witten theory and the work of Gross and Siebert, Tropical Geometry has now become a powerful tool. Homological Mirror Symmetry is the area of mathematics concentrated around several categorical equivalences connecting symplectic and holomorphic (or algebraic) geometry. The central ideas first appeared in the work of Maxim Kontsevich (1993). Roughly speaking, the subject can be approached in two ways: either one uses Lagrangian torus fibrations of Calabi-Yau manifolds (the so-called Strominger-Yau-Zaslow picture, further developed by Kontsevich and Soibelman) or one uses Lefschetz fibrations of symplectic manifolds (suggested by Kontsevich and further developed by Seidel). Tropical Geometry studies piecewise-linear objects which appear as “degenerations” of the corresponding algebro-geometric objects.
