Los museos de ciencias: Universum, 25 años de experiencia

Describes, in brief text and illustrations, the physical characteristics, habits, and natural environment of various species of reptiles.

In previous volumes in this series, Advances in Metal and Semiconductor Clusters, the focus has been on atomic clusters of metals, semiconductors and carbon. Fundamental gas phase studies have been surveyed, and most recently scientists have explored new materials which can be produced from clusters or cluster precursors. In this latest volume, the focus shifts to clusters composed primarily of non-metal molecules or atoms which have one or more metal atoms seeded into the cluster as an impurity. These clusters provide model systems for metal ion solvation processes and metal-ligand...

La autora, tras más de quince años viajando a los países que conforman el Sahara y su periferia, ha terminado por vincularse emocionalmente, de manera intensa, con el mosaico de paisajes y culturas que habitan estos territorios. Sus viajes han sido al modo antiguo, el único que realmente permite ver más allá de la postal que resume los tópicos. Ella y sus compañeros han llegado a donde no llega el turista convencional; han vivido bajo el mismo techo y han compartido té y alimentos con familias tuareg, bereber o bororo; asistido a sus ceremonias y rituales; oído sus leyendas;...

(Complete work in Spanish) Remote sensing aerial spectral imaging was one of the first application areas where spectral imaging was used in order to identify and monitor the natural resources and covers on earth surface. Aerial spectral imaging is being developed with the aim of monitoring natural resources like coastal areas, forestry and extensive crops. The information contained in hyperspectral images allows the reconstruction of the energy curve radiated by the terrestrial surface throughout the electromagnetic spectrum. Hence, the characterization, identification and classification of...
