This book provides a representative assessment of the state of the art of research on Paleogene rotaliid larger foraminifera. It gives an overview of the current understanding of systematics of this group and, in particular, of its biostratigraphic importance and palaeobiogeography. The senior author of the work, late Professor Hottinger, a leading scientist in the field, both from a systematic and applied side, presents in this book his most recent advances. The foraminiferal family Rotaliidae is a traditional group used frequently which plays an important role for petroleum exploration in the biostratigraphy and palaeobiogeography of Paleogene shallow water deposits in the Middle East. This book aims to introduce rotaliid representatives as index fossils that can be recognized in random thin-sections of cemented rocks. The book is generously illustrated with an unprecedented degree of accuracy. The selection of taxa is restricted to forms having lived in the Paleocene and the Eocene, where their biostratigraphic significance is much higher than during later epochs. However, some additional rotaliid taxa, from the Late Cretaceous or that do not belong to the family Rotaliidae sensu stricto, are included in this book in order to demonstrate particular roots of rotaliid phylogenetic lineages in the previous community maturation cycle or to delimit the taxon Rotaliidae with more precision. This book can be considered as a reference in the field.
Obdobje 20 milijonov let, ki je sledilo opustošenju po kredno-terciarni meji in izumrtju dinozavrov, ima posebno mesto v zgodovini Zemlje. V tem času se je postopoma obnavljalo življenje z vso pestrostjo svojih oblik. Podrobno proučevanje tega obnavljanja nam daje ključ za razumevanje vzrokov, zakaj in kako je vzniknila in napredovala raznovrstnost življenja. Pričujoči zvezek je zbir zgodovinskih dokumentov, ki ilustrirajo nekatere od mnogih podob obnove.
The reconstruction of ancient marine environments is an important task of the Earth Sciences, of great interest to geology, pure and applied, to oceanography and climatology, as well as to such fields as ecology and evolution. In principle, such reconstructions are based on the actualistic approach of "the present is the key to the past." Since the deciphering of past environmental changes, either nat ural or man-made, has considerable bearing on planning, the past may provide a key to the future. Paleoenvironmental interpretations in the marine realm are based to a great extent on assemblages of fossils recovered from ancient sediments in outcrops and from land-based or submarine drillings. Observable lateral sequences of assemblages in contemporaneous strata, the known or assumed functional or adaptive significance of preserved skeletal struc tures, as well as their evolution through time and space, provide by themselves indications of ancient environmental settings. In some cases even present-day eco logical considerations may be derived from analysis of fossils.
Lithium-Ionen Batteriesysteme leiden unter elektrochemischen Degradations- und Ausfallmechanismen, die nur mit hohem Testaufwand abzusichern sind. Daher verfolgt diese Arbeit das Ziel, Prädiktionen des kalendarischen Kapazitätsverlustes und der Druckentwicklung auf Zell- und Systemebene zu verbessern. Eine fundamentale Inkonsistenz semi-empirischer kalendarischer Alterungsmodelle konnte aufgrund theoretischer Überlegungen aufgelöst werden, indem der Einfluss der initialen Anodendeckschicht berücksichtigt wird. Ein neuartiges Validierungskonzept, welches durch maschinelles Lernen inspiriert wurde, konnte die dadurch verbessere Prognosefähigkeit gegenüber der Literatur aufzeigen. Das Verhalten von Einzelzellen in repräsentativer Modulverspannung konnte auf einer neuen aktiv geregelte Zellpresse untersucht werden und schuf grundlegendes Verständnis. Die Presse ermöglichte damit die Systemmodellierung der Druckentwicklung, deren detaillierte Parametrisierung und die Messung des Gasverdrängungsdruckes von laminierten Zellen. Durch die Messung der Druckentwicklung in Alterungsversuchen von Modulen konnte die Modellprädiktion auf Systemebene erfolgreich für Moduldesigns validiert werden.

Plötzlich war sie weg. Kaum hat Ben begriffen, dass die faszinierende Nesrin mit den blauen Haaren etwas für ihn empfindet, da ist sie verschwunden. Hinterlassen hat sie nur einen Zettel mit einer Adresse in Amsterdam. Doch dort ist sie nie angekommen. Als Ben seiner Freundin hinterherreist, macht er eine merkwürdige Begegnung nach der nächsten: Ein Junkie empfiehlt ihm zu verschwinden, im Hostel wird er überfallen, dann taucht plötzlich Nesrins Bruder Emre auf. Gemeinsam machen sie sich auf die Suche nach Nesrin und geraten dabei in einen Sumpf aus krimineller Forschung, Menschenversuchen, legalen Drogen und großen Geschäften. Im Mittelpunkt: ein skrupelloser Pharmakonzern und ein Mädchen mit blauen Haaren. Ob Nesrin noch zu retten ist?
