Solar Concentrating Modules With Louvered Heliostats: Emerging Research and Opportunities
The development of solar energy is becoming increasingly widespread all over the world. One significant way to reduce the cost of energy generated by solar modules, as well as reduce the need for centralized energy supply, is the use of non-tracking concentrator solar modules integrated into the building structure. As this area of engineering gains interest from all sectors, it is crucial to understand how to increase productivity in order to make solar modules an excellent source of energy. Solar Concentrating Modules With Louvered Heliostats: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an essential publication that formulates a scientifically based approach to the development of non-tracking so...
Combating and Controlling Nagana and Tick-Borne Diseases in Livestock
African animal trypanosomosis (AAT), also called nagana, is a trans-boundary disease that has had an immense impact on cattle and is ranked among the top global cattle diseases. This and tick-borne diseases have caused major obstacles to sustainable livestock-based agricultural production and food security and are important factors in underdevelopment. Due to decreasing efficacy of available drugs, widespread trypanosome resistance, and the difficulty of sustaining other control measures, there is a need for alternative sustainable strategies to reduce the impact these diseases have on livestock. Combating and Controlling Nagana and Tick-Borne Diseases in Livestock provides the latest empiri...
Artificial Intelligence and IoT-Based Technologies for Sustainable Farming and Smart Agriculture
As technology continues to saturate modern society, agriculture has started to adopt digital computing and data-driven innovations. This emergence of “smart” farming has led to various advancements in the field, including autonomous equipment and the collection of climate, livestock, and plant data. As connectivity and data management continue to revolutionize the farming industry, empirical research is a necessity for understanding these technological developments. Artificial Intelligence and IoT-Based Technologies for Sustainable Farming and Smart Agriculture provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of critical technological solutions within the farming industry. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as crop monitoring, precision livestock farming, and agronomic data processing, this book is ideally designed for farmers, agriculturalists, product managers, farm holders, manufacturers, equipment suppliers, industrialists, governmental professionals, researchers, academicians, and students seeking current research on technological applications within agriculture and farming.
Molecular Plant Breeding and Genome Editing Tools for Crop Improvement
Plant breeders have used mutagenic agents to create variability for their use in crop improvement. However, application of mutagenic agents has its own drawbacks, such as non-specificity and random nature, simultaneous effect on large numbers of genes, and induction of chromosomal aberrations. To overcome these limitations, several genome editing systems have been developed with the aid of cutting-edge technology rooted in the expertise of several research fields. Molecular Plant Breeding and Genome Editing Tools for Crop Improvement is a pivotal reference source that provides an interdisciplinary approach to crop breeding through genetics. Featuring coverage of a broad range of topics including software, molecular markers, and plant variety identification, this book is ideally designed for agriculturalists, biologists, engineers, advocates, policymakers, researchers, academicians, and students.
Handbook of Research on Microbial Remediation and Microbial Biotechnology for Sustainable Soil
The introduction of contaminants, due to rapid urbanization and anthropogenic activities into the environment, causes distress to the physio-chemical systems including living organisms, which possibly is threatening the dynamics of nature as well as the soil biology by producing certain xenobiotics. Hence, there is an immediate global demand for the diminution of such contaminants and xenobiotics that can otherwise adversely affect the living organisms. Some toxic xenobiotics include synthetic organochlorides such as PAHs and some fractions of crude oil and coal. Over time, microbial remediation processes have been accelerated to produce better, more eco-friendly, and more biodegradable solu...
Forest Fire Danger Prediction Using Deterministic-Probabilistic Approach
Forest fires cause ecological, economic, and social damage to various states of the international community. The causes of forest fires are rather varied, but the main factor is human activity in settlements, industrial facilities, objects of transport infrastructure, and intensively developed territories (in other words, anthropogenic load). In turn, storm activity is also a basic reason for forest fires in remote territories. Therefore, scientists across the world have developed methods, approaches, and systems to predict forest fire danger, including the impact of human and storm activity on forested territories. An important and comprehensive point of research is on the complex determini...
Role of IoT in Green Energy Systems
In the era of Industry 4.0, the world is increasingly becoming smarter as everything from mobile phones to cars to TVs connects with unique addresses and communication mechanisms. However, in order to enable the smart world to be sustainable, ICT must embark into energy efficient paradigms. Green ICT is a moving factor contributing towards energy efficiency by reducing energy utilization through software or hardware procedures. Role of IoT in Green Energy Systems presents updated research trends in green technology and the latest product and application developments towards green energy. Covering topics that include energy conservation and harvesting, renewable energy, and green and underwater internet of things, this essential reference book creates further awareness of smart energy and critically examines the contributions of ICT towards green technologies. IT specialists, researchers, academicians, and students in the area of energy harvesting and energy management, and/or those working towards green energy technologies, wireless sensor networks, and smart applications will find this monograph beneficial in their studies.
Handbook of Research on Waste Diversion and Minimization Technologies for the Industrial Sector
Due to various issues in the world including rapid urbanization and industrial processes, waste generation has reached levels that are becoming detrimental to the environment and the global population.

Innovative technologies in waste management are emerging and can help professionals looking to implement more efficient methods of pollution control. The Handbook of Research on Waste Diversion and Minimization Techno...
Impacts of Climate Change on Agriculture and Aquaculture
Climate change is expected to influence several productive sectors, the most significant of which is agriculture. Agriculture comprises an important sector of the global economy that includes crops, livestock, and seafood. Agriculture, aquaculture, and fisheries are closely linked to the climate, with changes in climatic conditions able to drastically affect animal and plant productivity, which in turn has a direct impact on human well-being. Impacts of Climate Change on Agriculture and Aquaculture is a critical scholarly publication that provides an integrated assessment of climate change impacts on agriculture, aquaculture, and fisheries and explores a set of strategies to secure sustainab...
Handbook of Research on Strategic Management for Current Energy Investments
Energy has a wide range of uses within a country, includin socially and economically. Providing everything from warmth and light to raw materials for industrial production, energy is an essential need for countries. Due to the importance of energy for countries, energy policies are extremely vital, and energy needs to be affordable, eco-friendly, and continuous so countries can provide for their people and continue to develop industrially. Without the availability of energy that is cheap and continuous, the effectiveness in the energy supply process will be reduced, and society will experience difficulties in having its daily energy needs met. The Handbook of Research on Strategic Management...
