Darkness visible: reflections on underground ecology
1 Soil science and ecology have developed independently, making it difficult for ecologists to contribute to urgent current debates on the destruction of the global soil resource and its key role in the global carbon cycle. Soils are believed to be exceptionally biodiverse parts of ecosystems, a view confirmed by recent data from the UK Soil Biodiversity Programme at Sourhope, Scotland, where h...
متن کاملIndustrial ecology : Reflections on a colloquium ( environmental technologies / dematerialization / decarbonization )
Industrial ecology is the network of all industrial processes as they may interact with each other and live off each other, not only in the economic sense, but also in the sense of direct use of each other's material and energy wastes and products. This paper, which reflects upon the papers and discussions at the National Academy ofSciences Colloquium on Industrial Ecology on May 20-21, 1991, i...
متن کاملIs Acoustic Ecology About Ecology? - Reflections on the International Conference on Acoustic Ecology “Stockholm, Hey Listen!” 1998
There are advantages with integrating the study of soundscapes with a more general framework, such as ecology. Soundscape studies will be able to use the rich theoretical framework of ecology, as well as benefit from publicity due to the current ecological movement. However, ecology puts new demands on the theoretical concepts used in soundscape studies, and these new demands are likely to caus...
متن کاملDirectly Visible Pairs and Illumination by Reflections in Orthogonal Polygons
We consider direct visibility in simple orthogonal polygons and derive tight lower and upper bounds on the number of strictly internal and external visibility edges. We also show a lower bound of ⌈n2 ⌉ − 1 on the number of diffuse reflections required for completely illuminating an orthogonal polygon from an arbitrary point inside it. Further, we derive lower bounds on the combinatorial complex...
متن کاملReflections on Reflections
The graduate student workshop ''Buddhist Art: Objects and Contexts'' was an unusual event. Like Reflections of the Buddha, the exhibition it addressed, it was in constant dialogue with its physical setting, the singular Tadao Ando ¯ building home to the Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, as the four sessions moved through the four galleries in changing light. The event was also distinguished by ...
