The recommendations and issues concerning the international results of a endured elevate within the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases have loved a excessive visibility in newspapers and medical journals. This drawback is now being translated into big-science initiatives. those overseas tasks objective to appreciate larger the approaches of weather and atmosphere alterations and affects and are being designed less than the aegis of the area weather examine Programme and the overseas Geosphere-Biosphere Programme. organic and climatic structures are intertwined in methods resulting in affects and feedbacks and so it has emerged that climatologists, atmospheric scientists, terrestrial and marine ecologists needs to collaborate in study programmes, else the bases in their destiny projections are incomplete. This designated quantity of "Advances in ecological learn" brings jointly 8 papers which suggest and reveal the 2 significant parts of present weather switch learn, destiny prediction and interdisciplinary process.

This examine brings jointly the world over well known lecturers to supply a close perception into the idea and perform of state-building. State-building is likely one of the dominant subject matters in modern diplomacy. this article addresses either the theoretical common sense in the back of state-building and key sensible manifestations of this phenomenon.

Описание: В 1966 году в Национальной библиотеке в Мадриде были обнаружены два манускрипта, написанные Леонардо. Когда-то они не были учтены при каталогизации, и об их существовании не было известно. Этим двум манускриптам дали условные названия «Мадридский кодекс I» и «Мадридский кодекс II».
«Мадридский кодекс I» состоит из 192 листов 1490—1499 годов написания, содержащих изображения различных механизмов и изложения теории механики. Хотя работа и посвящена механике, в ней есть заметки по астрономии и по оптике.
«Мадридский кодекс II» был создан Леонардо в 1503—1505 гг. и состоит из 158 листов. Он собрал исследования в области геометрии, такие, например, как «квадратуры круга». Кроме этого, в нём содержатся работы по перспективе и оптике. В книге можно найти эскизы морских и топографических карт, рассматриваются проблемы военной техники и архитектуры. Самое интересное в этом кодексе — неосуществлённый проект изменения русла реки Арно, эскизы фрески «Битва при Ангиари» и конного памятника Франческо Сфорца.
