Handbook of Atmospheric Electrodynamics, Volume I


Book Description

The participation of such diverse scientific and technical disciplines as meteorology, astronomy, atmospheric electricity, ionospheric and magnetospheric physics, electromagnetic wave propagation, and radio techniques in the research of atmospherics means that results are published in scientific papers widely spread throughout the literature. This Handbook collects the latest knowledge on atmospherics and presents it in two volumes. Each chapter is written by an expert in his or her field. Topics include the physics of thunderclouds, thunder, global atmospheric electric currents, biological aspects of sferics, and various space techniques for detecting lightning within our own atmosphere as well as in the atmospheres of other planets. Up-to-date applications and methodology are detailed. Volumes I and II offer a comprehensive discussion that together will serve as an important resource for practitioners, professionals, and students alike.

The Rocket's Red Glare


Book Description

In 1982 a high school shooting shook the community of Sabreton, Pennsylvania. A year later signs of the shooting had been swept clean and students seemed to take events in stride. For Gary, an insecure 1983 Sabreton freshman, this only added to his anxiety as he began what promised to be a humiliating year of school. The Rocket’s Red Glare is a story of the friendships that sustained, inspired and ultimately carried Gary through those turbulent years. He and his friends were, for the most part, middle class kids who were drawn to the New Wave and Punk music popular at that time. For them, drinking, dancing, and loving it all seemed so right but ended so badly. Five years after high school Gary is now on his own. He is an aspiring artist balancing a hatred for his corporate day job with his live-in girlfriend’s desire for stability. But soon his world will change when he receives a call from an old friend. An impromptu road trip across America, a tape of a long forgotten band and a suicide force him to face the question of whether he has really survived anything.




Rocketships to Heaven and the Sos Fuel Station


Book Description

"Who made God? Who created heaven?" "How big is God?" Every curious mind wonders about these questions - especially young minds. So what do we do when asked questions that do not have simple answers? Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Station is a vehicle to begin the conversation. This eye-opening journey begins with a dialogue between a boy and his mother. He is allowed to find answers within himself. The child's toy rocketship becomes a conduit for his faith in God. By traveling in the rocketship to the Save-Our-Souls Fuel Station, he fills the spiritual tank needed for the trip to heaven. This enlightening tale demonstrates the remarkable ability of children to take hugely complex concepts and absorb the multifaceted ideas well enough to make the notions their own. Using the down-to-earth toy rocketship, Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Station begins a lifelong dialogue of faith that will soar alongside the child and parents for years. The questions of belief and conviction will be ever constant in a life of a Christian and so will the relevance of the ideas presented in this story. Author Bio: Author Peggy Sue Yarber, PhD, lives with her husband and two daughters in southern California, where she is an educator. She has published two other novels, The Judas Ride and TARE.

Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery


Book Description

This book and its sister volume, LNAI 3613 and 3614, constitute the proce- ings of the Second International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery (FSKD 2005), jointly held with the First International Conference on Natural Computation (ICNC 2005, LNCS 3610, 3611, and 3612) from - gust 27–29, 2005 in Changsha, Hunan, China. FSKD 2005 successfully attracted 1249 submissions from 32 countries/regions (the joint ICNC-FSKD 2005 received 3136 submissions). After rigorous reviews, 333 high-quality papers, i. e. , 206 long papers and 127 short papers, were included in the FSKD 2005 proceedings, r- resenting an acceptance rate of 26. 7%. The ICNC-FSKD 2005 conference featured the most up-to-date research - sults in computational algorithms inspired from nature, including biological, e- logical, and physical systems. It is an exciting and emerging interdisciplinary area in which a wide range of techniques and methods are being studied for dealing with large, complex, and dynamic problems. The joint conferences also promoted cross-fertilization over these exciting and yet closely-related areas, which had a signi?cant impact on the advancement of these important technologies. Speci?c areas included computation with words, fuzzy computation, granular com- tation, neural computation, quantum computation, evolutionary computation, DNA computation, chemical computation, information processing in cells and tissues, molecular computation, arti?cial life, swarm intelligence, ants colony, arti?cial immune systems, etc. , with innovative applications to knowledge d- covery, ?nance, operations research, and more.
