This book presents a novel approach in the field of global change by presenting a comprehensive analysis of interhemispheric linkages of climate, present and past, and their effects on human societies. The ultimate goal of this interhemispheric integration is to improve our understanding of causes and mechanisms of climate change to enhance our capability in predicting future changes.Given the societal interest in global change issues this book offers a new approach for the integration of global information. It will provide a reference for professional scientists, researchers and graduate stud

Does the growing competitiveness of the developing world threaten jobs and wages in OECD countries? This study, together with its companion "Summary" report, argues that OECD countries stand to gain far more than they would lose from the rapid development of major developing countries, such as China, India, and Indonesia. These countries represent a large and fast-growing market for OECD exports of goods, services, know-how and capital, and could therefore stimulate employment and income growth within the OECD. Having embraced an outward-oriented linkage-intensive development

This book presents the mathematical theory of design for articulated systems called linkages. Robot manipulators, walking machines, and mechanical hands are examples of these systems, all of which rely on simple mechanical constraints to provide a complex workspace for an end-effector. The emphasis of this text is on linkage systems with fewer degrees of freedom than that of a typical robot arm and, therefore, more constraints. The focus is on sizing these constraints to guide the end-effector through a set of task positions. Formulated in this way the design problem is purely geometric in

This volume provides insights into the environmental practices of five industry sectors: materials processing, manufacturing, electric utilities, and pulp and paper. The ecology of industry is presented in terms of systems of production and consumption, taking into account the flows of material, energy, capital, and information. The book examines ways to improve the environmental performance of these industries (and others, such as the service sector) and shows how decisions made by industry managers can leverage systemic environmental improvements elsewhere in the economy.
