Methane Emissions from Unique Wetlands in China: Case Studies, Meta Analyses and Modelling is a landmark volume in the development of studies about methane emission from wetlands. Although there are books about methane emissions from rice paddies, natural wetlands and reservoirs, this book is the first one that provides information about methane emission from wetlands in China. Moreover, the book picks up very unique wetlands, alpine wetlands on the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, and Three Gorges Reservoir (the world's largest hydroelectric reservoir) as cases to study methane emissions. It reviews and meta-analyses methane emissions from rice paddies, natural wetlands and lakes in China during the past twenty years. Furthermore, this book acts as bridge to connect microbial ecology and modelling: it both describes methane-producing bacteria dynamics and methane emission modelling.
This book introduces the latest methods for the controlled growth of nanomaterial systems. The coverage includes simple and complex nanomaterial systems, ordered nanostructures and complex nanostructure arrays, and the essential conditions for the controlled growth of nanostructures with different morphologies, sizes, compositions, and microstructures. The book also discusses the dynamics of controlled growth and thermodynamic characteristics of two-dimensional nanorestricted systems. The authors introduce various novel synthesis methods for nanomaterials and nanostructures, such as hierarchical growth, heterostructures growth, doping growth and some developing template synthesis methods. In addition to discussing applications, the book reviews developing trends in nanomaterials and nanostructures.
This report describes the use of a well-established carbon budget model for the Canadian forest sector to investigate the carbon budget of Ontario's forest ecosystems. It first reviews the model and its components, then presents results of model runs using input data mainly based on a 1985 forest biomass inventory database. Model simulations begin in 1989 with simulated initial ecosystem conditions that are the endpoint of a 70-year retrospective model run for the period 1920-1989. Results are discussed with regard to forest age structure, forest carbon distribution & stocks, and ecosystem carbon fluxes. The final section includes discussion of the contribution of Ontario forest ecosystems to Canada's carbon budgets and recommendations for further research.
