        Experimental Design and Analysis for Tree Improvement

        by Emlyn Williams, Chris Harwood, Colin Matheson

        This third edition of Experimental Design and Analysis for Tree Improvement provides a set of practical procedures to follow when planning, designing and analysing tree improvement trials. Using many fully worked examples, it outlines how to: design field, glasshouse and laboratory trials; efficiently collect and construct electronic data files; pre-process data, screening for data quality and outliers; analyse data from single and across-site trials; and interpret the results from statistical analyses. The authors address the many practical issues often faced in forest tree improvement trials and describe techniques that will efficiently give conclusive results. The techniques provided are applicable to the improvement of not only trees, but to crops in general. Building on the success of the second edition, this new edition has been fully revised to include the construction of p-rep and spatial designs using the commercially available software package for design generation (CycDesigN). For analysis of the examples, it provides online Genstat and SAS programs and a link to R programs.

        Public information films

        British government film units, 1928–52

        by Alan Harding

        In the years after the First World War the British government had to adapt its communication policy to connect with the new mass electorate. This book examines the government's own Film Units and their slow development of the Public Information Film. By reviewing the entire film catalogue produced by the Empire Marketing Board, the General Post Office and Crown Film Units, particular themes are identified which not only reflect the demands of the Units' sponsors but also the anxieties and concerns of the 1930s and 1940s. The impact of the films is explored through the contemporary reaction of the audiences to them. By the time the Crown Film Unit was closed in 1952 a style of Public Information Film had been developed and continued into the 1970s.

        Global Warming Trends, Second Edition

        Ecological Footprints

        by Julie Kerr, Ph.D.

        Climate scientists have repeatedly told us that the most recent decades had the warmest temperatures ever recorded since records were consistently kept in the mid-1800s. Scientists worldwide support this notion, and there is an abundance of data collected to prove its validity. Some argue that the trend has not been a steady upward climb and that it has had intermittent cooling periods. Although these intervals have occurred every few decades in some locations, the overall tendency has been a steady upward climb, coinciding with melting glaciers, rising sea levels, shifting climatic zones, and changing ecosystems worldwide. Global Warming Trends, Second Edition presents an overview of significant climatic periods of the Earth's past and introduces the concept of climate proxies, or natural indicators that can be used to infer past climate. Thoroughly updated and featuring new graphs, charts, and illustrations, this accessible, full-color eBook discusses the concept of geochronology and how scientists determine the relative ages of objects on Earth. It also examines how scientists use pollen, tree rings, plant remains, and other life forms to make inferences about past climatic conditions. Global Warming Trends, Second Edition concludes with the most current information from climate experts, exploring the futuristic role of computer modeling and how it is helping scientists discover the past in order to predict the future. Chapters include: The Science of Paleoclimatology Key Climate Intervals in the Earth's Past Geochronology and Climate Proxies Proxy Data: Geomorphic Landforms Geological and Geochemical Proxy Data Biotic Proxies Climate Change and Past Civilizations Using New Technology to Discover the Past What the Experts Say Conclusions and a Glance into the Future.

        An Enlightenment Picture Book of Sex Education for Chinese Children

        by Zhang Dandan

        In the eyes of many Chinese parents, talking about "sex" with their children always feels ashamed to speak out. In fact, the younger the children, the higher their acceptance, the lower their shame, and the easier it is to grasp the true meaning of "sex and life". So, as parents, in what way should we tell children the origin of life, tell them the correct understanding of sexual organs, and avoid being sexually assaulted? "Growth and Sex for Children" starts with "sex and life", through the form of "picture book + cartoon", it uses scientific and childlike language to tell children a complete and systematic knowledge of sex education. In addition, the series also fully considers the sexual and psychological development of children aged 3-6. It integrates storytelling, fun, and knowledge. It is a growth book for parents and children to read together.
