Paperback. Condition: New. This specially curated collection features five reviews of current and key research on vertical farming in horticulture.The first chapter describes and evaluates technologies and methods for growing edible plants indoors and presents a survey of selected commercial vertical farms currently operating that employ them.The second chapter explores the benefits of plant factories with artificial lighting (PFALs). The chapter assesses resource consumption, costs and performance of current PFALs, as well as methods for reducing resource consumption and production costs.The third chapter explores recent advances in the ornamentals industry, such as vertical propagation systems and LED technology, and how these can be implemented to meet the challenges of a changing marketplace and societal demands.The fourth chapter describes the advantages and disadvantages of hydroponics, along with the equipment and substrates used, and also examines soilless/hydroponic growing systems for vegetables.The final chapter describes the most recent innovation in hydroponic technologies for plant cultivation within cities and their adaptability to the urban fabric.…

Brossura. Condition: new. A cura di Cutolo F. Roma, 2024; br., pp. 312, cm 15x21. (I Libri di Viella. 483). A lungo lasciata ai margini della memoria pubblica, la pandemia influenzale del 1918-1920, responsabile di un numero di morti stimato tra i 17 e i 50 milioni, ha acquisito una notorietà inedita dal 2020, in concomitanza con l'emergenza da Covid-19. La cosiddetta "Spagnola" ha attirato anche l'interesse degli studi storici, che fino ad allora si erano poco occupati dell'evento malgrado la sua portata. In questo contesto, la Rete toscana degli Istituti storici della Resistenza e dell'età contemporanea ha promosso un progetto di ricerca pluriennale, confluito in questo volume, volto a ricostruire la storia della Spagnola in Toscana. I saggi offrono una panoramica sulla vicenda regionale da più prospettive e approfondiscono vari temi (i numeri del fenomeno, la gestione igienico-sanitaria, l'assistenza, le risposte delle istituzioni civili e religiose, le reazioni popolari, le memorie pubbliche e private dell'evento, ecc.), allo scopo di far emergere i caratteri specifici e generali del fenomeno.
