Abstract

"Pneumatology" is an essay on the representation of the most present yet invisible instance of life, namely wind, breath and air. On the one hand, the book maps out anthropological, art historical and philosophical conceptions of these three dimensions that are concentrated in the notion of pneuma. On the other hand, the book is an experiment in iconology because it asks one fundamental question: how do these invisible motifs challenge the traditional conception of the image as something seen and read? "Pneumatology" attempts to answer this question by addressing the structural relations that have determined the representation of these motifs across different cultures.

Abstract

De generatie die thans aan bod komt, voortbouwend op de verworvenheden van hen die de grondslagen legden van de welvaartsspreiding in de industrieële gemeenschappen, gaat thans op zoek naar betere normen voor het eigenlijk welzijn van de mens. Dit welzijn veronderstelt harmonie met het natuurlijk milieu en met het daarbij aansluitend geürbaniseerd levenskader.De factoren die zih daarbij laten gelden zijn zeer talrijk en raken de meeste aspecten van menselijke bedrijvigheid. De "Monografieën LEEFMILIEU NU" stellen zich tot doel het domein te verkennen. Elke aflevering van de brochurenreeks zal gewijd zijn aan een welbepaald facet van de leefmilieuproblematiek.De bedoeling is degelijk gefundeerde informatie ter beschikking te stellen van beleidsverantwoordelijken zowel in de private als in de openbare sector.De auteurs krijgen de gelegenheid in deze reeks monografieën hun wetenschappelijke bevindingen en standpunten bekend te maken, waaruit wellicht een vruchtebare dialoog met alle belanghebbenden kan voortvloeien.

Abstract

These proceedings describe the current state-of-the-art of ozone research. A wide range of topics is discussed including: emissions, transport and transformation of precursors of ozone and of ozone itself, the distribution of ozone, the deposition of ozone at the earth's surface, and its effects on man and the environment. Attention is also given to the role of stratospheric ozone and the role of the ultraviolet radiation which is transmitted through the ozone layer. Finally it describes in detail present and future policy measures to reduce the ozone in the lower atmosphere and to protect the

Abstract

While ocean waves are the most visible example of oceanic mixing processes, this macroscale mixing process represents but one end of the spectrum of mixing processes operating in the ocean. At the scale of a typical phytoplanktoic diatom or larval fish inhabiting these seas, the most important mixing processes occur on the molecular scale - at the scale of turbulence. Physical-biological interactions at this scale are of paramount importance to the productivity of the seas (fisheries) and the heat balance that controls large scale ocean climate phenomena such as El Niño and tornadoes.

Abstract

The book interprets nature and the environment as a scarce resource. It offers a theoretical study of the allocation problem and describes different policy approaches to the environmental problem. The entire spectrum of the allocation issue is studied: the use of the environment in a static context, international and trade aspects of environmental allocation, regional dimensions, global environmental media, environmental use over time and under uncertainty. The book incorporates a variety of economic approaches, including neoclassical analysis, the public-goods approach, benefit-cost analysis, property-rights ideas, economic policy and public-finance reasoning, international trade theory, regional science, optimization theory, and risk analysis. The different aspectsof environmental allocation are studied in the context of a single model that is used through the book.
