Titre : Creating a forest garden : working with nature to grow edible crops Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Martin Crawford, Auteur Année de publication : 2016 Importance : 384 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-900322-62-1 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Forêt
Plante comestibleIndex. décimale : 631.584 Agriculture biologique Résumé : According to the publisher : "Forest Gardening or Agroforestry is a way of growing edible crops with nature doing most of the work. Modelled on young woodland, a wide range of crops is grown in vertical layers. Species are chosen for their beneficial effects on each other, creating a healthy system that maintains its own fertility, with little need for digging, weeding or pest control. Whether a small area in your back garden or a larger plot, here is advice on how to create a beautiful space with great environmental benefits from planning and design (using permaculture principles) to planting and maintenance. With a changing climate, we must grow food sustainably, without compromising soil health, food quality or biodiversity and Forest Gardening offers an exciting solution to the challenge.
Creating a Forest Garden also includes a detailed directory of over 500 trees, shrubs, herbaceous perennials, annuals, root crops and climbers – almost all of them edible and many very unusual.
As well as more familiar plants you can grow your own chokeberries, goji berries, yams, heartnuts, bamboo shoots and buffalo currants."Note de contenu : Part 1: How forest gardens work

Titre : Data visualization : a practical introduction / Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kieran Joseph Healy Année de publication : 2015 Importance : xviii, 272 pages Présentation : illustrations Format : 26 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-691-18162-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 005.1 Algorithmique et programmation (Python, Langage C, VBA) Résumé : "This book provides students and researchers a hands-on introduction to the principles and practice of data visualization. It explains what makes some graphs succeed while others fail, how to make high-quality figures from data using powerful and reproducible methods, and how to think about data visualization in an honest and effective way.
Data Visualization builds the reader’s expertise in ggplot2, a versatile visualization library for the R programming language. Through a series of worked examples, this accessible primer then demonstrates how to create plots piece by piece, beginning with summaries of single variables and moving on to more complex graphics. Topics include plotting continuous and categorical variables; layering information on graphics; producing effective “small multiple” plots; grouping, summarizing, and transforming data for plotting; creating maps; working with the output of statistical models; and refining plots to make them more comprehensible.
Effective graphics are essential to communicating ideas and a great way to better understand data. This book provides the practical skills students and practitioners need to visualize quantitative data and get the most out of their research findings.
Provides hands-on instruction using R and ggplot2
Shows how the “tidyverse” of data analysis tools makes working with R easier and more consistent
Includes a library of data sets, code, and functions"Data visualization : a practical introduction / [texte imprimé] / Kieran Joseph Healy . - 2015 . - xviii, 272 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm.

Évaluation de l'impact sur l'environnementAn activity designed to identify, predict, interpret and communicate information concerning the environmental consequences of policies, projects etc.
Forêt tropicaleIndex. décimale : 333.7 Environnement et développement durable Résumé : Présentation de l'éditeur : "This book aims at verifying quantitatively the actual drivers of deforestation at a national scale in Cameroon from among the following independent variables (cattle stock, arable production, fuel wood, arable production and permanent crop land, rainfall, population and trade in forests products/logging). It also examines the effects of deforestation or forest area loss on carbon dioxide emissions and cereal/grain production in the midst of other variables at a national scale in Cameroon. This is followed by a survey of the extent of vulnerability of respondents to food and water scarcities caused by deforestation along gender and income levels lines at a case study scale. The findings show that, population and arable production are the key drivers of deforestation while as forest area declines, carbon dioxide emissions increase. It is also observed that deforestation is more responsible for grain output decline than does rainfall in parts of the study area while the poor and females are the main precursors of the effects of deforestation in parts of Cameroon. Most of these findings are consistent with other Sahelian based studies.
