ISSN: 1747-6593Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power EngineeringNotes: Sustainable groundwater management requires (a) maximizing the use of aquifer storage to reduce water-supply costs while limiting environmental impacts, and (b) maximizing groundwater protection to reduce water-supply treatment needs while not unduly restricting land-use activities. These key issues are evaluated from the experience of a recent and comprehensive national strategic study, involving detailed consultation with many stakeholders with an interest in groundwater resources. Such balances are not easy to achieve because groundwater systems are complex to analyse and slow to respond to change, resulting in considerable uncertainty in assessment and prediction without in-depth research and high-resolution monitoring. Current institutional and regulatory arrangements for the water sector in England and Wales do not appear to be achieving the best possible use of aquifer storage and optimal investment in groundwater protection.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-1416Keywords: Optimisation ; Leslie matrix ; Equilibrium ; Linear programming ; NonlinearSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyMathematicsNotes: Abstract The problem of optimal harvesting in equilibrium is considered in a Leslie matrix model in which both mortality and fecundity in all age-classes may be density-dependent. The conclusion is that the optimal strategy is of the two-age-class type, in common with results obtained previously for simpler models.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 0142-2421Keywords: Chemistry ; Polymer and Materials ScienceSource: Wiley InterScience Backfile Collection 1832-2000Topics: PhysicsNotes: Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and scanning force microscopy (SFM) have been applied to characterize the surface topography of carbon fibres before and after activating electrochemical treatment. Electrochemical activation is seen to have a significant effect on the structure of the surface layers. The influence of scanning parameters on STM and SFM images was examined and it was found that alteration of the scanning direction allows important additional information about surface structure of carbon fibres to be obtained. It also makes it possible to estimate the contribution of the artefacts to resulting images. The results indicate the great potential of both STM and SFM for three-dimensional surface characterization of carbon fibres.Additional Material: 5 Ill.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
