Data Analysis Methods in Physical Oceanography, Fourth Edition
provides a practical reference to established and modern data
analysis techniques in earth and ocean sciences. In five sections,
the book addresses data acquisition and recording, data
processing and presentation, statistical methods and error
handling, analysis of spatial data fields, and time series analysis
methods. The updated edition includes new information on autonomous
platforms and new analysis tools such as “deep learning” and
convolutional neural networks. A section on extreme value
statistics has been added, and the section on wavelet analysis has
been expanded. This book brings together relevant techniques and
references recent papers where these techniques have been trialed.
In addition, it presents valuable examples using physical
oceanography data. For students, the sections on data acquisition
are useful for a compilation of all the measurement methods.
A sister searches for her missing brother as a new power rises amid
the splendour and the squalor of a once great city. Lower
Rhumbsford is a city far removed from its glory days. On the banks
of the great river Rhumb, its founding fathers channelled the
river's mighty flow into a subterranean labyrinth of pipes, valves
and sluices, a feat of hydraulic prowess that would come to power
an empire. But a thousand years have passed since then, and
something is wrong. The pipes are leaking, the valves stuck, the
sluices silted. The erstwhile mighty Rhumb is sluggish and about to
freeze over for the first time in memory. In a once fashionable
quarter of the once great city, in the once grand ancestral home of
a family once wealthy and well-known, live the last descendants of
the city's most distinguished engineer, siblings Samuel and Briony
Locke. Having abandoned his programme in hydraulic engineering,
Samuel Locke tends to his vast lock collection, while his sister
Briony distracts herself from the prospect of marriage to a rich
old man with her alchemical experiments. One night Sam leaves the
house carrying five of his most precious locks and doesn't come
back... As she searches for her brother, Bryony will be drawn into
a web of ancestral secrets and imperial intrigues as a ruthless new
power arises. If brother and sister are to be reunited, they will
need the help of a tight-lipped house spirit, a convict gang, a
club of antiques enthusiasts, a tribe of troglodytes, the Ladies
Whist Club, the deep state, a traveling theatrical troupe and a
lovesick mouse. Epic, rollicking and in love with language, Jacob
and Sara Emery's sprawling debut novel of humble kitchen magics and
awe-inspiring civil engineering is a rare and delicious commodity -
the world's first hydropunk novel.
Harness the seven key elements of successful organisational change
Leading for Organisational Change is an intelligent and practical
guide to the human side of merger integration and other
organisational change. Building a clear sense of common purpose and
then reinforcing it through storytelling can underpin the success
of an integration or significant change programme. Pulling together
the best thinking from neuroscience, psychology and business, and
her rich personal experience in twenty years of leading change
projects in professional services organisations and other
people-centred businesses, author Jennifer Emery presents a
framework for change rooted in seven key themes that help
organisations establish their BECAUSE: belonging, evolution,
confidence, agility, understanding, simplicity and energy.
Exploring the role each theme plays in the context of change, this
insightful and warm book shares real-world examples and provides
advice on building purpose and culture and strengthening motivation
through listening, empowering and collaborating. Clear
understanding of purpose, powerful communication techniques and
carefully planned implementation strategies assist in navigating an
often stressful and uncertain period of change, and can even enable
organisations to thrive throughout this period. This book
encourages you to apply important lessons to your own context,
allowing you to: Focus on the human, cultural and practical
elements of organisational change Apply central concepts of
communication and motivation to a wide array of situations in your
personal and business life Understand perspectives on change from a
broad range of professional sectors Build and strengthen
communication skills to promote a sense of shared purpose Leading
for Organisational Change offers a warm and intelligent perspective
on the personal and inter-personal factors that contribute to
successful integration. An invaluable resource for professional
services and people-focused organisations, this book provides
advice that can cross sectors and lend insight to any major change
programme.
"Data Analysis Methods in Physical Oceanography, Third Edition"
is a practical reference to established and modern data analysis
techniques in earth and ocean sciences. Its five major sections
address data acquisition and recording, data processing and
presentation, statistical methods and error handling, analysis of
spatial data fields, and time series analysis methods. The revised
"Third Edition" updates the instrumentation used to collect and
analyze physical oceanic data and adds new techniques including
Kalman Filtering. Additionally, the sections covering spectral,
wavelet, and harmonic analysis techniques are completely revised
since these techniques have attracted significant attention over
the past decade as more accurate and efficient data gathering and
analysis methods.
Completely updated and revised to reflect new filtering techniques
and major updating of the instrumentation used to collect and
analyze dataCo-authored by scientists from academe and industry,
both of whom have more than 30 years of experience in oceanographic
research and field workSignificant revision of sections covering
spectral, wavelet, and harmonic analysis techniquesExamples address
typical data analysis problems yet provide the reader with
formulaic recipes for working with their own dataSignificant
expansion to 350 figures, illustrations, diagrams and photos"
Lower Rhumbsford is a city far removed from its glory days. On the
banks of the great River Rhumb, its founding fathers channelled the
river's mighty flow into a subterranean labyrinth of pipes, valves
and sluices, a feat of hydraulic prowess that would come to power
an empire. But a thousand years have passed since then, and
something is wrong: the pipes are leaking, the valves stuck, the
sluices silted, and the once-torrential Rhumb has been reduced to a
sluggish trickle. The fortunes of the Locke family, descendants of
the city's most celebrated engineer, are similarly reduced. In a
once-fashionable quarter of the once-great city, siblings Samuel
and Briony Locke are about to be drawn into a web of ancestral
secrets and imperial intrigues, as a ruthless new power arises...
