Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Encuadernación: Rústica Aunque este libro ha sido escrito e ilustrado de manera específica para la comunidad náutica, su contenido puede estar destinado a un público más amplio. En lo que respecta a la realización de nudos y trabajos de cabullería, la obra consta de tres partes principales. La primera, \"Nociones sobre cabos\", proporciona a aquellos que comienzan su aprendizaje sobre cabos, nudos y trabajos de cabullería, varios capítulos que tratan sobre materiales y confección, cuidado y empleo, terminología que se utiliza y herramientas en el comercio, y culmina con un resumen sobre cómo tomar vueltas, poleas y aparejos. Posteriormente, para el principiante que desee confeccionar nudos se muestra una progresión gradual que va desde la estructura de los nudos elementales hasta el modo de realizar los nudos más indispensables que se utilizan a bordo. La parte siguiente, dedicada a una selección de nudos, cotes, vueltas, gazas y ayustes, con diferentes usos a bordo, está encaminada a revisar y fomentar el conocimiento del lector sobre los nudos prácticos y cuenta con un capítulo muy completo que trata sobre ayustes, ligadas y forrado. La última parte del libro puede clasificarse como \"Realización avanzada de nudos\", y explica el modo de hacer nudos como el cabeza de turco y la piña de estrella, y cómo realizar algunos de los proyectos prácticos con cabos y amarras que siempre hubiésemos deseado saber hacer, como cordones, esterillas, defensas, sondalezas y un surtido de trabajos con cabos decorativos y tradicionales. Conviene dedicar especial atención al \"Contramaestre\" pues dispone de más de un consejo que os ayudará en vuestro aprendizaje.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good-. First Edition. (embossed decorative cover; no dust jacket, as issued) [solid clean copy, moderate wear at extremities, top right-hand corner of front cover is bumped and frayed]. (B&W and color photographs) Per the introduction, this book is "more than just an updating of Pasadena history. Manny Pineda has given a great deal of attention to some special topics well worth developing as a part of the background to the present level of Pasadena's accomplishments. He has treated very fully the history of Pasadena's city departments -- Fire, Police, Water, Light and Power, and the Library. He has traced the growth of the privately owned utilities of the area. He has reviewed the development of the city school system, with particular attention to Pasadena City College. He has produced a thorough study of the remarkable growth of the California Institute of Technology. He has covered the activities of the private schools and the culturally-oriented organizations, as well as the development of various social and civic groups. And lastly he has added two special chapters: one a history of sports in Pasadena, the other a history of the Rose Bowl games." Includes publisher's original promotional card, laid in. [NOTE that the copyright is attributed to "Historical Publishing Company," whose seal also adorns the front cover; the title page, however, states James W. Anderson as "Editor-in-Chief and Publisher."] ***NOTE: Additional shipping charges for this heavy book may apply for non-U.S. customers, or for Priority Mail shipping within the U.S.; if this causes you concern, please inquire before placing your order.***.

Octavo,440 pp.,colour illustrations, softcover. Global environmental change (including climate change, biodiversity loss, changes in hydrological and biogeochemical cycles, and intensive exploitation of natural resources) is having significant impacts on the world's oceans. This book advances knowledge of the structure and functioning of marine ecosystems, and their past, present, and future responses to physical and anthropogenic forcing. It illustrates how climate and humans impact marine ecosystems, providing a comprehensive review of the physical and ecological processes that structure marine ecosystems as well as the observation, experimentation, and modelling approaches required for their study. Recognizing the interactive roles played by humans in using marine resources and in responding to global changes in marine systems, the book includes chapters on the human dimensions of marine ecosystem changes and on effective management approaches in this era of rapid change. A final section reviews the state of the art in predicting the responses of marine ecosystems to future global change scenarios with the intention of informing both future research agendas and marine management policy. This book provides a detailed synthesis of the work conducted under the auspices of the Global Ocean Ecosystems Dynamics (GLOBEC) programme. This research spans two decades, and represents the largest, multi-disciplinary, international effort focused on understanding the impacts of external forcing on the structure and dynamics of global marine ecosystems. Also available in hardcover [stock id 32642].
