Have you ever looked up at the sky and wondered about the story behind the clouds? Have you marvelled at their formations, their shapes, and their ever-changing nature? Clouds, often seen as transient and ephemeral, hold within them a geological tale that spans millions of years. In this book, we delve into the fascinating world where geology meets meteorology, exploring the intricate relationship between rocks and clouds. From the towering cumulonimbus to the wispy cirrus, each cloud formation is a result of complex processes that begin deep within the Earth's crust. One of the key players in this geological drama is feldspar, a mineral that plays a crucial role in cloud formation. Through the ages, feldspar and other rocks have been weathered and eroded, releasing particles into the atmosphere that serve as nuclei for cloud droplets. These mineral particles, along with other natural and human-made aerosols, influence cloud properties such as size, shape, and lifespan, ultimately impacting weather patterns and climate. As we explore the geology of clouds, we also uncover the broader implications of these processes. Understanding how clouds form and evolve not only enriches our appreciation of the natural world but also deepens our awareness of the intricate interplay between Earth's systems. Top of Form Waves are the rhythmic heartbeat of the oceans and seas, a language spoken by the waters that has captivated human imagination for centuries. From the gentle lapping of wind waves against the shore to the awe-inspiring power of storm surges, each wave tells a story of nature's raw beauty and immense power. In this book, we delve into the world of ocean and sea waves, exploring the different types of waves that grace our planet's vast bodies of water. From the familiar wind waves that dance playfully on the surface to the mysterious rogue waves that lurk beneath, we uncover the secrets of these fascinating phenomena. Through detailed explanations and vivid descriptions, we unravel the science behind waves, examining the forces that shape them and the factors that influence their behaviour. We explore how waves are formed, how they travel across vast distances, and how they interact with the environment around them. But waves are more than just a scientific curiosity; they are a force of nature that has a profound impact on our world. We discuss the role of waves in shaping coastlines, influencing weather patterns, and even driving ocean currents. We also explore the ways in which waves are harnessed for human use, from surfing and sailing to renewable energy generation. As we journey through the world of ocean and sea waves, we invite you to join us in marvelling at the beauty and complexity of these natural wonders. Whether you are a scientist, a sailor, or simply someone with a love for the sea, we hope that this book will deepen your appreciation for the fascinating world of waves. This book is a journey through the skies, guided by the lens of geology. It is an invitation to look beyond the surface of clouds and discover the geological forces that shape our atmosphere. So, join us as we disclose the mysteries of clouds and uncover the hidden stories written in the sky. So come, dive in, and let the waves carry you away on a journey of discovery and wonder.

Movers and shakers operating in today¿s complex and volatile world often encounter sudden organizational and personal reversals of prospects and fortunes. But the good news is this: Dramatic reversals of fortune are the backdrop against which true heroes can emerge. In such fluid settings, skilled and determined steersmen who know the treacherous waters of the business world and possess distinctively sharp edges can gain latitude to reshape even unattractive environments. This ¿saw wave principle¿ of unsustainable achievement and ultimate revival helps leaders, who are ever more vulnerable to various shocks, to stay ahead of the curve. Brave New Saw Wave World applies this new capstone concept to transitioning Asia¿a quintessential saw wave arena¿in its intricate and changing relationship with the increasingly erratic global environment. It enables helmsmen in different walks of life to fathom the global-Asian nexus and discern the rich opportunities and dangerous storm clouds on the Asian continent that are likely to affect their organizations and careers.

From Fourier Analysis To Wavelets written by Jonas Gomes and has been published by Springer this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015-09-15 with Mathematics categories.
This text introduces the basic concepts of function spaces and operators, both from the continuous and discrete viewpoints. Fourier and Window Fourier Transforms are introduced and used as a guide to arrive at the concept of Wavelet transform. The fundamental aspects of multiresolution representation, and its importance to function discretization and to the construction of wavelets is also discussed. Emphasis is given on ideas and intuition, avoiding the heavy computations which are usually involved in the study of wavelets. Readers should have a basic knowledge of linear algebra, calculus, and some familiarity with complex analysis. Basic knowledge of signal and image processing is desirable. This text originated from a set of notes in Portuguese that the authors wrote for a wavelet course on the Brazilian Mathematical Colloquium in 1997 at IMPA, Rio de Janeiro.

Now if I just remembered where I put that original TV play device--the universal remote control . . . Television is a global industry, a medium of representation, an architectural component of space, and a nearly universal frame of reference for viewers. Yet it is also an abstraction and an often misunderstood science whose critical influence on the development, history, and diffusion of new media has been both minimized and overlooked. How Television Invented New Media adjusts the picture of television culturally while providing a corrective history of new media studies itself. Personal computers, video game systems, even iPods and the Internet built upon and borrowed from television to become viable forms. The earliest personal computers, disguised as video games using TV sets as monitors, provided a case study for television's key role in the emergence of digital interactive devices. Sheila C. Murphy analyzes how specific technologies emerge and how representations, from South Park to Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along-Blog, mine the history of television just as they converge with new methods of the making and circulation of images. Past and failed attempts to link television to computers and the Web also indicate how services like Hulu or Netflix On-Demand can give rise to a new era for entertainment and program viewing online. In these concrete ways, television's role in new and emerging media is solidified and finally recognized.

A follow-up to the classic "Surfing in South Africa", this is a new book, completely revised and updated. Written by Spike (Steve Pike), founder of the cult surfing website Wavescape.co.za, it comprises chapters on history, big waves, spots, culture, travel, oceanography, sharks (including a timeline of shark attacks) and a hilarious 'Surfrican' slang glossary. The book is illustrated with 180 graphics, cartoons and photographs. You will find quirky descriptions of surf spots along almost 3,000 km of coast (watch out for the razor-toothed tortoise), a photo essay of surfing personalities by acclaimed photographer Harry de Zitter, as well as colourful journalism from top writers covering subjects connected to the surfing lifestyle. The full-colour book, which is 110 pages bigger than the previous book, is an indispensable resource. Images come from top South African photographers, such as Barry Tuck, Tom Peschak, Michael Dei-Cont, Andy Mason, Lance Slabbert, Brenton Geach, and Pierre Marqua. The contributors of words added spice to an eclectic mix of culture and science. An original piece by Paul Botha forms the backbone to a much-expanded history chapter. Tom Peschak adds gravitas to issues around sharks and conservation. The brave life of John Whitmore is poignantly remembered by Tony Heard. Ross Frylinck gives gritty insights into the forlorn splendour of the Diamond Coast. Tongue in cheek, Gideon Malherbe uncovers our surfing addiction. Henri du Plessis provides a profile of a committed exponent of that addiction. Tony Weaver eloquently tackles the challenge of sharing the sea with sharks. Ben Trovato romps through issues around surfing evolution and lifeguards in skimpy Speedos.
