Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you know your watershed address? We all have one, whether we live high up in a mountain, on an inland prairie or near the coast. A watershed is an area of land that channels rain and snowmelt into streams, rivers and oceans. Our lives are deeply intertwined with land and water and all the connections between them. Day-to-day activities—like brushing our teeth, eating a meal, getting a ride in a car or even using an electronic device—have consequences for our own or someone else's watershed. Over the centuries we've changed the land by farming it, cutting down the trees on it, digging into it and building on it. We've also learned how to control water—where it goes and how much flows. Upstream, Downstream explores the consequences of the pressures people place on watersheds and highlights some of the heroes making a difference for watersheds around world.
Download or read book Upstream written by Dan Heath and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wall Street Journal Bestseller New York Times bestselling author Dan Heath explores how to prevent problems before they happen, drawing on insights from hundreds of interviews with unconventional problem solvers. So often in life, we get stuck in a cycle of response. We put out fires. We deal with emergencies. We stay downstream, handling one problem after another, but we never make our way upstream to fix the systems that caused the problems. Cops chase robbers, doctors treat patients with chronic illnesses, and call-center reps address customer complaints. But many crimes, chronic illnesses, and customer complaints are preventable. So why do our efforts skew so heavily toward reaction rather than prevention? Upstream probes the psychological forces that push us downstream—including “problem blindness,” which can leave us oblivious to serious problems in our midst. And Heath introduces us to the thinkers who have overcome these obstacles and scored massive victories by switching to an upstream mindset. One online travel website prevented twenty million customer service calls every year by making some simple tweaks to its booking system. A major urban school district cut its dropout rate in half after it figured out that it could predict which students would drop out—as early as the ninth grade. A European nation almost eliminated teenage alcohol and drug abuse by deliberately changing the nation’s culture. And one EMS system accelerated the emergency-response time of its ambulances by using data to predict where 911 calls would emerge—and forward-deploying its ambulances to stand by in those areas. Upstream delivers practical solutions for preventing problems rather than reacting to them. How many problems in our lives and in society are we tolerating simply because we’ve forgotten that we can fix them?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upstream Living in a Downstream World is the story of one pastor's journey in ministry, a journey that carried the Rev. Daniel Haugen through several parishes, president of Lutheran Collegiate Bible Institute in Outlook, Saskatchewan, and back into parish ministry. But the book is more than story after story of one person's ministry, for each story or group of stories become the foundation for broader theological and pastoral reflection on ministry and the church in our contemporary world....
Download or read book Upstream Midstream Downstream Process simulation and Design written by Editoiu Mihail (author) and published by Letras. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ebook shall drive you in a "Simulation World" from Upstream, Midstream and Downstream Sectors! Step by step simulation procedure including key technical parameters and neutral layout to be implemented in any available flowsheet simulator, thermo package recommendation and design tips specific for each type of presented Unit/Process - ALL necessary information to build a professional simulation are included! Starting from Upstream processes like FPSO/GOSP, then passing to Midstream with Mercury Removal, Amine Unit, Glycol & Molecular Sieve Dehydration, NGL Recovery and complete Fractionation Train, then arriving Downstream to Refinery where Crude, Vacuum & Condensate Distillation Units are touch, various Strippers like: NHT, Distillate, VGO, Reformate Splitter and Stripper are presented, FCC & Hydrocracking Separation Sections, Saturated Gas Plant, Sour Water Stripping Unit plus Sulfur Recovery & TGT and finally to Petrochemical sector where PP Splitter with heat pump, BT Fractionation and Aromatic Separation are give out. Also four special chapters are part of the ebook, MDMT rigorous calculation including tensile stress of wall expose to fire with practical examples (one vessel and multiple equipment protected by the same depressurization valve), HIPPS implementation for FPSO and Toluene Separation (dynamic simulation layout with integrator settings and various scenarios), CPA validation against experimental data with extensive graphs showing equilibrium for various literatures available experimental data and Divided Wall Column - DWC Opex & Capex quick tips and simulation / optimization tricks. The above four special chapters are a must considering that in Upstream MDMT rigorous calculation is vital, CPA validation against experimental data used to compute necessary flow rate of hydrate inhibitor, MeOH & Mercury distribution between vapor, liquid and water phases are essential, HIPPS to minimize flare loads with Upstream & Downstream applications and the last one but important - the DWC, which gain more and more in all sectors. At the end of each chapter the reader shall find “Take Away” section with useful technical information to be discovered!

Download or read book Climate Change Adaptation Strategies An Upstream downstream Perspective written by Nadine Salzmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change and the related adverse impacts are among the greatest challenges facing humankind during the coming decades. Even with a significant reduction of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, it will be inevitable for societies to adapt to new climatic conditions and associated impacts and risks. This book offers insights to first experiences of developing and implementing adaptation measures, with a particular focus on mountain environments and the adjacent downstream areas. It provides a comprehensive ‘state-of-the-art’ of climate change adaptation in these areas through the collection and evaluation of knowledge from several local and regional case studies and by offering new expertise and insights at the global level. As such, the book is an important source for scientists, practitioners and decision makers alike, who are working in the field of climate change adaptation and towards sustainable development in the sense of the Paris Agreement and the Agenda 2030.
