Environmental Sex Differentiation in Fish

Environmental Sex Differentiation in Fish

Fish constitute an important natural renewable resource and any reduction in their ability to propagate as a result of human interference may have significant socioeconomic consequences. The negative effect of human activity on sex differentiation and reproductive output in fish is so diverse that it has been difficult to encompass it in a single book. This book serves as the first attempt to do so. Unlike in mammals the expression of a host of sex differentiation genes in fish is mostly controlled by environmental factors. Not surprisingly environmental sex differentiation is ubiquitous in fish. Overexploitation by capture fisheries does not disrupt sex differentiation but crowding in aqua-farms does by reducing accessibility to food supply. Some of the man-made chemicals routinely used worldwide mimic endogenous hormones. For example endosulfan which is widely used in developing countries disrupts endogenous hormones and feminizes fish. For the first time this book views endocrine disruption from the point of labile early life and non-labile adult stages. It shows that sex can irreversibly be reversed when exposed to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) during early labile stages but reversibly impairs reproductive output on exposure to EDCs during non-labile adult stage. A consequence of climate change elevated temperature and declining oxygen and pH levels is that it masculinises genetic female fish. Fish display a remarkable ability to postpone the labile period. Besides postponement some primary and tertiary gonochores have two distinct labile periods amenable to temperature and hormonal manipulations. Hermaphrodites have retained the period until the end of the adult stage and are capable of sex change/reversal more than once in both male and female directions. | Environmental Sex Differentiation in Fish

Regional Productivity Growth In China's Agriculture

Regional Productivity Growth In China's Agriculture

This study by Shenggen Fan makes three important and original contributions. It is the first study to report regional patterns of productivity growth in Chinese agriculture. There have been dramatic differences in output and productivity growth among Chinese regions. The second contribution is to measure the separate effects of technical change and institutional reform on productivity growth. Much of the rapid growth in agricultural production and in productivity since the late 1970s has been a consequence of an important series of institutional reforms. The third contribution is the first test of the induced innovation hypothesis against experience in a centrally planned economy. Regional patterns of productivity growth are consistent with the hypothesis that the path of technical change has been responsive to regional differences in resource endowments. | Regional Productivity Growth In China's Agriculture

Flood Hazard Mapping: Uncertainty and its Value in the Decision-making Process

Flood Hazard Mapping: Uncertainty and its Value in the Decision-making Process

Computers are increasingly used in the simulation of natural phenomena such as floods. However these simulations are based on numerical approximations of equations formalizing our conceptual understanding of flood flows. Thus model results are intrinsically subject to uncertainty and the use of probabilistic approaches seems more appropriate. Uncertain probabilistic floodplain maps are widely used in the scientific domain but still not sufficiently exploited to support the development of flood mitigation strategies. In this thesis the major sources of uncertainty in flood inundation models are analyzed resulting in the generation of probabilistic floodplain maps. The utility of probabilistic model output is assessed using value of information and the prospect theory. The use of these maps to support decision making in terms of floodplain development under flood hazard threat is demonstrated. | Flood Hazard Mapping: Uncertainty and its Value in the Decision-making Process

Computational Biology and Bioinformatics Gene Regulation

Computational Biology and Bioinformatics Gene Regulation

The advances in biotechnology such as the next generation sequencing technologies are occurring at breathtaking speed. Advances and breakthroughs give competitive advantages to those who are prepared. However the driving force behind the positive competition is not only limited to the technological advancement but also to the companion data analytical skills and computational methods which are collectively called computational biology and bioinformatics. Without them the biotechnology-output data by itself is raw and perhaps meaningless. To raise such awareness we have collected the state-of-the-art research works in computational biology and bioinformatics with a thematic focus on gene regulation in this book. This book is designed to be self-contained and comprehensive targeting senior undergraduates and junior graduate students in the related disciplines such as bioinformatics computational biology biostatistics genome science computer science applied data mining applied machine learning life science biomedical science and genetics. In addition we believe that this book will serve as a useful reference for both bioinformaticians and computational biologists in the post-genomic era. | Computational Biology and Bioinformatics Gene Regulation

Control Engineering

Control Engineering

Since its inception the Tutorial Guides in Electronic Engineering series has met with great success among both instructors and students. Designed for first- and second-year undergraduate courses each text provides a concise list of objectives at the beginning of every chapter key definitions and formulas highlighted in margin notes and references to other texts in the series. With emphasis on the fundamental ideas and applications of modelling and design Control Engineering imparts a thorough understanding of the principles of feedback control. Simple but detailed design examples used throughout the book illustrate how various classical feedback control techniques can be employed for single-input single-output systems. Noting the interdisciplinary nature of control engineering the author makes the text equally relevant to students whose interests lie outside of electronics by concentrating on general systems characteristics rather than on specific implementations. The author assumes students are familiar with complex numbers phasors and elementary calculus and while a knowledge of simple linear differential equations would be useful this treatment has few other mathematical requirements. With its clear explanations copious illustrations well-chosen examples and end-of-chapter exercises Control Engineering forms an outstanding first-course textbook.
