Agroecosystems Soils Climate Crops Nutrient Dynamics and Productivity

Agroecosystems Soils Climate Crops Nutrient Dynamics and Productivity

Comprised of three sections this covers the nutrient dynamics and productivity of global agroecosystems. It focuses on the major aspects that make up agroecosystems such as soils climate crops nutrient dynamics and productivity. It introduces agroeocsystems and describes global soil types that support vast crop belts then deals with the principles that drive crop growth nutrient dynamics and ecosystematic functions within any agroecosystem. It also details the influence of agronomic practices and factors such as soil microbes organic matter crop genetic nature irrigation weeds and cropping systems that affect productivity of agroecosystems. | Agroecosystems Soils Climate Crops Nutrient Dynamics and Productivity

Design for Six Sigma in Product and Service Development Applications and Case Studies

Design for Six Sigma in Product and Service Development Applications and Case Studies

Real-world examples and hands-on experience are invaluable resources when learning how to use new methods and tools whether in training or in a classroom. Yet there are very few books on Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) that provide the practical knowledge required to be up and running quickly. Until now. Design for Six Sigma in Product and Service Development: Applications and Case Studies provides step-by-step analysis and practical guidance on how to apply DFSS in product and service development. The book discusses the DFSS roadmap and how it is linked to methodologies including organizational leadership product development system integration critical parameter management voice of the customer quality function deployment and concept generation. The chapter authors provide real-world case studies that demonstrate how the application of DFSS has significantly improved meeting customer requirements. They follow the Identify-Define-Design-Optimize-Validate (IDDOV) structure for new product or service development. Examples of tools covered include Quality Function Deployment Voice of the Customer Pugh Concept Selection Ideal Function Failure Modes and Effects Analysis Reliability Measurement Systems Analysis Regression Analysis and Capability Studies among others. Clearly outlining the tools and how to integrate them for robust product and service design the case studies can be used by industry professionals and academics to learn how to apply DFSS. The book gives you hands-on experience in a safe environment where experienced Black Belts and Master Black Belts act as mentors and prepare you to touch actual data and make decisions when embarking on real-world projects. Even after you’ve mastered the techniques the breadth and depth of coverage contained in this book will make it a vital part of your toolkit. | Design for Six Sigma in Product and Service Development Applications and Case Studies

Space Weather Fundamentals

Space Weather Fundamentals

Space weather is one of the most significant natural hazards to human life and health. Conditions of the sun and in the solar wind magnetosphere ionosphere and thermosphere can influence the performance and reliability of space-borne and ground-based technological systems. If conditions in the space environment are adverse they can cause disruption of satellite operations communications navigation and electric power distribution grids leading to a variety of socioeconomic losses. This book provides an overview of our current knowledge and theoretical understanding of space weather formation and covers all major topics of this phenomena from the sun to the Earth’s ionosphere and thermosphere thus providing a fully updated review of this rapidly advancing field. The book brings together an outstanding team of internationally recognised contributors to cover topics such as solar wind the earth's magnetic field radiation belts the aurora spacecraft charging orbital drag and GPS. | Space Weather Fundamentals
