SAR Oceanography: Monitoring Oceanic Dynamics with Synthetic Aperture Radar is an authoritative reference for scientists and professionals involved in marine remote sensing and oceanography. The book addresses the critical need for advanced techniques to observe and analyze ocean surface phenomena such as wind, waves, currents, internal waves, and oil spills using SAR technology. It emphasizes the importance of SAR in tropical cyclone monitoring, providing insights into high-resolution, all-weather, day-and-night observations essential for climate research, disaster response, and maritime safety. The content is divided into chapters covering SAR algorithms, applications in different oceanic processes, and recent technological developments. It offers practical case studies and validation methods, making it a valuable resource for researchers, meteorologists, environmental policymakers, and remote sensing specialists. This publication enhances understanding of ocean dynamics and supports

Packed with hands-on applications, Babbie's THE PRACTICE OF SOCIAL RESEARCH, 15th Edition, equips your students with the tools they need to practically apply research concepts as both researchers and consumers. Known as the "gold standard" for research methods, the text delivers a comprehensive, straightforward introduction to the field of research as practiced by social scientists. Dr. Babbie emphasizes the research process by showing students how to design and construct projects, introducing the various observation modes in use today. The new edition includes "What do you think?" puzzles that immediately draw students into chapter concepts. General Social Survey data is updated throughout while new coverage includes the global use of social research, the emerging role of big data, demographic analysis and more. Also available: MindTap digital learning solution.

Fundamentals and Practice of Nuclear Logging: A Subsurface Measurement Technique exposes the reader to the basic physics utilized in nuclear measurements, exploring how it is used in tool design and interpretation. Nuclear/atomic techniques, first used in 1939 to probe the subsurface, are now a key component of the suite of down-hole physics measurements used to study geological media. These techniques allow both static and dynamic characterization of geological formations and of well-bores, with a range of interpretations unattainable from any other single subsurface technique. Fundamentals and Practice of Nuclear Logging: A Subsurface Measurement Technique discusses safety and security challenges inherent in current radionuclide-based techniques and the research underway to mitigate these risks, using advanced generator-based methods where the physics and interpretation can change. The book is designed for upper division and graduate students to gain an insight on the fundamentals an

Computer science and artificial intelligence in particular have no curriculum in research methods, as other sciences do. This book presents empirical methods for studying complex computer programs: ex
