A new card deck from best-selling author Diana Cooper to help you understand the animal world from a new and higher perspective.By popular demand, author of The Archangel Guide to the Animal World Diana Cooper has created a one-of-a-kind oracle deck combining the divine wisdom of the Archangels with the natural beauty of the animal kingdom.Each of the 44 cards in this deck represents an animal, bird or insect, and shows symbols associated with each creature to help you interpret its spiritual messages. For example, if you pick the Hyena card, your guidance is 'dare to be different'; the card then advises you to be true to yourself and make change happen in your unique way. Every animal also works with a specific Archangel, who is indicated on that card. The accompanying booklet offers the reader unique information about each animal, both practical and spiritual, as well as its soul purpose and service mission, and the direct guidance the Archangels want to give you through these beauti

One of the most notable features of nanometer scale CMOS technology is the increasing magnitude of variability of the key device parameters affecting performance of integrated circuits. The growth of variability can be attributed to multiple factors, including the difficulty of manufacturing control, the emergence of new systematic variation-generating mechanisms, and most importantly, the increase in atomic-scale randomness, where device operation must be described as a stochastic process. In addition to wide-sense stationary stochastic device variability and temperature variation, existence of non-stationary stochastic electrical noise associated with fundamental processes in integrated-circuit devices represents an elementary limit on the performance of electronic circuits.In an attempt to address these issues, Stochastic Process Variation in Deep-Submicron CMOS: Circuits and Algorithms offers unique combination of mathematical treatment of random process variation, electrical noise

Mesoscale weather systems are responsible for numerous natural disasters, such as damaging winds, blizzards and flash flooding. A fundamental understanding of the underlying dynamics involved in these weather systems is essential in forecasting their occurrence. This 2007 book provides a systematic approach to this subject. The opening chapters introduce the basic equations governing mesoscale weather systems and their approximations. The subsequent chapters cover four major areas of mesoscale dynamics: wave dynamics, moist convection, front dynamics and mesoscale modelling. This is an ideal book on the subject for researchers in meteorology and atmospheric science. With over 100 problems, and password-protected solutions available to instructors at www.cambridge.org/9780521808750, this book could also serve as a textbook for graduate students.
