Soils are progressively recognized as the critical environmental compartment they are. More and more practitioners and scientists address soil issues and work with soils in the context of their specific field of interest and profession. The rising interest in soils drives a mounting demand for soil information. This information must frequently be generated by field measurements (e.g. of soil water content, solute concentration in soil water, redox potential, pH ...) in order to describe e.g. water and solute transport processes, detect soil degeneration or optimize crop production. Users of soil measurement techniques need guidelines on how to decide which sensor/technique is most appropriate for their soil measurement needs. The authors of this book are renowned specialists in their fields of research and present answers to questions such as: * Which parameters need to be measured? * What techniques do exist and how do they differ? * Which precision is required and achievable at what price? * Which is the best technical equipment for the study? * Which preconditions must be met to get meaningful results? * How many replicates are required? * How is the equipment installed and used optimally? * Which pitfalls lurk when using a certain method? * How to check data quality and how to interpret the data? The book is not only useful for soil-science "beginners” looking for an introductory review of available techniques, but also for more experienced colleagues by providing "best practice” guidelines for consistent, reproducible installation and operation of field instruments to collect reliable and meaningful data which can be gainfully interpreted.
The Great God Pan is a horror and fantasy novel by the Welsh writer Arthur Machen. Machen was inspired to write about the Great God Pan through his experiences in the ruins of a pagan temple in Wales. The novel begins with an experiment that allows a woman named Mary to see the supernatural world. This is followed by a report of a series of mysterious events and deaths over many years. But who or what is behind them? Stephen King described the story as "perhaps the best [horror story] in the English language". Der Große Gott Pan ist eine Horror- und Fantasienovelle des walisischen Schriftstellers Arthur Machen. Machen wurde durch seine Erlebnisse in den Ruinen eines heidnischen Tempels in Wales zum Schreiben des Großen Gottes Pan inspiriert. Die Novelle beginnt mit einem Experiment, das einer Frau namens Maria erlaubt, die übernatürliche Welt zu sehen. Es folgt ein Bericht über eine Reihe von mysteriösen Ereignissen und Todesfällen über viele Jahre hinweg. Aber wer oder was steckt dahinter? Stephen King beschrieb die Geschichte als "vielleicht die beste [Horrorgeschichte] in der englischen Sprache".
Sun Tzu was a Chinese general, military strategist, writer and philosopher who lived in the Eastern Zhou period of ancient China. Sun Tzu is traditionally credited as the author of The Art of War, an influential work of military strategy that has affected both Western and East Asian philosophy and military thinking. His works focus much more on alternatives to battle, such as stratagem, delay, the use of spies and alternatives to war itself, the making and keeping of alliances, the uses of deceit and a willingness to submit, at least temporarily, to more powerful foes.[3] Sun Tzu is revered in Chinese and East Asian culture as a legendary historical and military figure. His birth name was Sun Wu (Chinese: ¿¿) and he was known outside of his family by his courtesy name Changqing (Chinese: ¿¿ The name Sun Tzu by which he is best known in the Western World is an honorific which means "Master Sun". Sun Tzu's historicity is uncertain. The Han dynasty historian Sima Qian and other traditional Chinese historians placed him as a minister to King Helü of Wu and dated his lifetime to 544-496 BC. Modern scholars accepting his historicity place the extant text of The Art of War in the later Warring States period based on its style of composition and its descriptions of warfare.[4] Traditional accounts state that the general's descendant Sun Bin wrote a treatise on military tactics, also titled The Art of War. Since Sun Wu and Sun Bin were referred to as Sun Tzu in classical Chinese texts, some historians believed them identical, prior to the rediscovery of Sun Bin's treatise in 1972. Sun Tzu's work has been praised and employed in East Asian warfare since its composition. During the twentieth century, The Art of War grew in popularity and saw practical use in Western society as well. It continues to influence many competitive endeavors in the world, including culture, politics, business and sports, as well as modern warfare.
