Abstract

High-technology and environmental applications of the rare-earth elements (REE) have grown dramatically in diversity and importance over the past four decades. This book provides a scientific understanding of rare earth properties and uses, present and future. It also points the way to efficient recycle of the rare earths in end-of-use products and efficient use of rare earths in new products. Scientists and students will appreciate the book's approach to the availability, structure and properties of rare earths and how they have led to myriad critical uses, present and future. Experts should buy this book to get an integrated picture of production and use (present and future) of rare earths and the science behind this picture. This book will prove valuable to.non-scientists as well in order to get an integrated picture of production and use of rare earths in the 21st Century, and the science behind this picture.

Abstract

Au début du XIXe siècle, eut lieu une des découvertes fondamentales des sciences de la vie et de la Terre. Il s’agit de la découverte d’une nouvelle géographie, différente de la géographie physique et de la géographie politique. Ce fut au début une géographie botanique qui devint par la suite biotique : la biogéographie. La biogéographie est l’étude de la distribution des êtres vivants sur la surface terrestre. Cette enquête scientifique occupe les chercheurs depuis plus de deux siècles. Néanmoins, force est de constater qu’il n’existe presque aucun laboratoire ou département de recherche spécialisé dans la seule biogéographie et que pratiquement aucun chercheur ne se définit uniquement comme biogéographe. La biogéographie semble s’intégrer à un grand nombre de recherches sur la biodiversité tout en se diluant quelque peu dans cette tâche. Les auteurs ont choisi le parti pris de la défense d’une vision particulière de la biogéographie : celle de l’approche historique de la classification des aires d’endémisme. L’histoire des diverses traditions en biogéographie historique ainsi que la théorie de cette discipline sont traitées d’une façon originale. Les fondements empiriques et théoriques qui contribuent à la richesse de cette discipline sont traités en essayant de rester à un niveau accessible. Les principaux processus et mécanismes à l’oeuvre dans la modification du vivant et de la surface terrestre sont décrits. Les moyens de découverte des motifs récurrents qui ont permis de redéfinir l’évolution comme un changement du vivant mais aussi de la géographie sont exposés. Le livre donne les clés pour comprendre que la Terre et la vie évoluent ensemble. S’agissant d’une discipline historique, les auteurs se concentrent sur les enseignements du passé : les recherches en paléontologie, en géosciences et en reconstruction phylogénétique constituent les fondements sur lesquels se dresse le riche édifice paléobiogéographique. Cet édifice étant toujours en construction, les problèmes et les perspectives sont également abordés. Ce livre s’adresse aux étudiants de niveau master et supérieur ainsi qu’aux enseignants et aux chercheurs qui souhaitent aborder des aspects biogéographiques dans leurs études de la biodiversité actuelle et passée.

Abstract

Geomorphology of Central America is authored by a scientist with more than 30 years of regional assessment research experience in Central American countries, arming scientists with a classic research method-a method most effective when applied to specific geographic regions globally. The scientific techniques used for assessing regional studies of an area reflect a level of expertise that has become more difficult to come by over the past three decades and underscores the importance of regional assessments of geomorphological features. Complemented with beautifully crafted and exacting map

Abstract

Geomorphology of Central America is authored by a scientist with more than 30 years of regional assessment research experience in Central American countries, arming scientists with a classic research method-a method most effective when applied to specific geographic regions globally. The scientific techniques used for assessing regional studies of an area reflect a level of expertise that has become more difficult to come by over the past three decades and underscores the importance of regional assessments of geomorphological features. Complemented with beautifully crafted and exacting maps that capture the region's unique landscapes, Geomorphology of Central America introduces a global vision of the geomorphology and volcanic field of Central America from Guatemala to Panama, making it the first single source of geomorphological content for the region.
