The establishment of relationships between sediment composition and
climatic - vironment in the sediment basin and subsequent evolution
of climate relates to the classical problems of fundamental
sedimentology. The widely known publications by the Russian
academicians N. M. Strakhov, A. B. Ronov, and A. P. Lisitsin are
dedicated to different aspects of this problem. In particular, the
monograph p- lished by A. P. Lisitsin "Sea-ice and iceberg
sedimentation in the Ocean: recent and past" (Lisitsin, 2002)
closely corresponds to the issues examined in this book. This
monograph discusses in detail the environments and means of
accumulations of recent marine and oceanic sediments in the ice
zone of sedimentation of the Ocean, however, much less attention is
given to the history of ice sedimentation, especially to
high-resolution paleoceanography. In the present work the authors
accepted the following basic principles: 1.
StudynotonlyoftheArctic, butalsooftheSubarctic,
especiallyofthoseregions, where there were conducted the original
studies by the authors. 2. Study of climatic history in uence ( rst

periglacial environment (term of G. G. Matishov), but also in the
deep water areas and on the adjacent continental blocks. 3.

Detailed consideration of accessible stratigraphic and
geo-chronometricdata for partition and correlation of various

This book goes beyond the technical steps in the process of making
film, TV, and media material, examining what it means to be an
ongoing supplier of content to the marketplace and how to become
one. Steve Levitan brings insights and experience from his lifelong
career producing in the content industry, where he has also acted
as a professional advisor to content makers, distributors and
providers, whilst setting up his own production company. Producing
as a Business offers strategic, tactical, financial, legal and
marketing insights for the successful establishment of content
creation enterprises. Readers will gain insight into how to avoid
starting from square one with each project, while also learning how
to maintain a meaningful level of ownership and build a revenue
stream that can sustain a core operation, helping establish them as
a “player” in the industry. This text is aimed at the
international production industry, with real examples referred to
throughout. Film, television, and media production students who are
looking to understandthe business of producing, as well as
first-time producers who are already familiar with the basics of
the production process, will benefit from an examination of the
building blocks that form lasting production companies.
Ion channels are the major class of membrane proteins responsible
for rapid and regulated transport of ions across biological
membranes and for the generation and propagation of electrical
signals in the brain, heart, and skeletal and vascular tissues. Ion
channels are also known to play critical roles in regulation of
cell proliferation, insulin secretion and intracellular signaling
in a variety of cell types. This book focuses on the roles of ion
channels in vascular tissues under normal and pathological
conditions. Vascular abnormalities are known to underlie a plethora
of severe pathological conditions, such as atherosclerosis,
systemic and pulmonary hypertension, coronary or cerebral
vasospasm, and diabetes. In addition, misregulated angiogenesis is
one of the major contributors to the development of tumors.
Therefore, it is clearly imperative to obtain a better
understanding of the molecular mechanisms that contribute to
vascular disorders. This book will be the first comprehensive
assembly of assays to present the studies that have been done
during the last decade to elucidate the roles of ion channels in
different vascular diseases.

The British census plays an unquestioned role in governance today,
and the recent digitization of nineteenth century census data has
allowed millions of amateur and professional researchers to
visualize their national and familial past. This study tells the
tangled story of how the census took shape over the early decades
of its existence, developing from a simple counting of households
during the Napoleonic Wars into a centralized undertaking that
involved the governmental and intellectual luminaries of Victorian
Britain. Along the way, the census intertwined with the pressing
questions of the day, including Malthusianism, industrialization,
political representation, Irish immigration, women's employment,
reproduction, and empire. The book explores the hotly disputed
process by which the census was created and developed and examines
how a wide cast of characters, including statisticians, novelists,
national and local officials, political and social reformers, and
journalists responded to and used the idea of a census. It shows
that the act of describing British society in statistical terms was
also an act of contestation.

The interest in inverse problems of spectral analysis has increased
considerably in recent years due to the applications to important
non-linear equations in mathematical physics. This monograph is
devoted to the detailed theory of inverse problems and methods of
their solution for the Sturm-Liouville case. Chapters 1--6 contain
proofs which are, in many cases, very different from those known
earlier. Chapters 4--6 are devoted to inverse problems of quantum
scattering theory with attention being focused on physical
applications. Chapters 7--11 are based on the author's recent
research on the theory of finite- and infinite-zone potentials. A
chapter discussing the applications to the Korteweg--de Vries
problem is also included. This monograph is important reading for
all researchers in the field of mathematics and physics.
This book scrutinises how three small Scandinavian countries –
Norway, Sweden and Denmark – developed a unique foreign policy
that brought Israel and the Palestinians to the negotiating table.
Bringing together the field of soft power diplomacy with the field
of conflict mediation, the text analyses the specific type of peace
diplomacy offered by Scandinavia. It identifies the different
methods and policies of the three Scandinavian countries, as well
as the strengths and weaknesses of their mediation strategies.
Close examination of the historical record through primary and
secondary sources in five languages reveals how Scandinavian
involvement worked over almost three decades and to what extent it
shaped the content of the Oslo peace talks. The author documents
how the Scandinavian countries employed soft power diplomacy to
enlist the aid of more powerful countries and international
institutions to compensate for their limited authority and
legitimacy, and how they used the Middle East peace process to
strengthen their own national interests, financial standing and
international status. The book will appeal to scholars, diplomats,
politicians, educators and students interested in Scandinavian
foreign policy and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
This study, written by seasoned professionals and academics in
the field of information management and public policy, presents a
clear exposition of what makes up infostructures, how they are
created and used, and how they affect the policy-making process.
The only study to address both information management and
technology and the policy process itself, it offers a balanced
treatment of the numerous resources and activities required to
generate and feed information into public sector
decision-making.
In 1980, Ronald Reagan created one of the most stupid talking
points of all time: "I'm not a scientist, but...". Since then,
politicians have repeatedly committed egregious transgressions
against scientific knowledge prefaced by this seemingly innocuous
phrase. Yet, as science journalist Dave Levitan reveals, that line
is just the tip of the melting iceberg when it comes to rhetorical
tools wielded to attack scientific findings that don't cooperate
with political agendas. Just listen to Mike Huckabee dismiss
climate change as "a sunburn", Donald Trump suggest that vaccines
cause autism or Todd Akin's infamous invention of "legitimate
rape". With a taxonomer's eye, Levitan captures and categorises
these deceptions by chapter, assigning delightful names like "The
Butter-Up and Undercut", "The Literal Nitpick", "The Straight-Up
Fabrication" and many more. His sharp humour dismantles America's
leaders' deceptive arguments while illuminating the real science
behind the worst soundbites from these elected non-scientists.
