Easy to read, this lucid and accessible textbook includes fifteen chapters that cover a full range of conservation topics, including threats to biodiversity, environmental laws, and protected areas management, as well as related topics such as sustainability, poverty, and human-wildlife conflict. This rich resource also includes a background discussion of what conservation biology is, a wide range of theoretical approaches to the subject, and concrete examples of conservation practice in specific African contexts. Strategies are outlined to protect biodiversity whilst promoting economic development in the region.7682019-09-07T21:08:05Z2024-01-22T14:52:04ZUniversity Physics I: Classical Mechanics<img alt="Read more about University Physics I: Classical Mechanics" title="University Physics I: Classical Mechanics cover image" class="cover " width="652" height="844" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NzI0LCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--c0bcc8394f66b47404b581f593121e76f40e5a67/0000UniPhyOne.png" />This is a “minimalist” textbook for a first semester of university, calculus-based physics, covering classical mechanics (including one chapter on mechanical waves, but excluding fluids), plus a brief introduction to thermodynamics. The presentation owes much to Mazur’s The Principles and Practice of Physics: conservation laws, momentum and energy, are introduced before forces, and one-dimensional setups are thoroughly explored before two-dimensional systems are considered. It contains both problems and worked-out examples.7672019-09-07T21:00:56Z2024-01-22T14:52:04ZAstronomy for Educators<img alt="Read more about Astronomy for Educators" title="Astronomy for Educators cover image" class="cover " width="116" height="150" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NzIzLCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--314eb68463c53cf3b7cdbc9d7adbbab45998a8f6/0000AstForEdu.jpg" />Astronomy for Educators provides new and accomplished K-12 instructors with concepts and projects for low-cost, high-impact STEM classroom instruction that is built around the National Academies National Research Council's K-12 Framework for Science Education.7642019-09-07T17:53:31Z2024-01-22T18:58:55ZClicaBrasil: Portuguese Language and Culture for Intermediate Students<img alt="Read more about ClicaBrasil: Portuguese Language and Culture for Intermediate Students" title="ClicaBrasil: Portuguese Language and Culture for Intermediate Students cover image" class="cover " width="245" height="320" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NzIwLCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--8b98747720d0703a438f771bdba39a6b655f97ff/9781937963156.jpg" />ClicaBrasil was developed for intermediate level Portuguese language courses at UT-Austin. People all ove the world are now using it for different purposes: self-study, classroom instruction, tutoring, or as a pastime.The lessons in ClicaBrasil integrate reading, writing, listening and reading comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, oral communication, and cultural activities. Numerous video clips (157, to be precise!) that show different Brazilians speaking about their lives, their culture, and their country support and enhance these activities.7632019-08-01T00:00:00Z2024-01-22T14:52:04ZTools for Podcasting<img alt="Read more about Tools for Podcasting" title="Tools for Podcasting cover image" class="cover " width="590" height="872" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6OTQ5NSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--16dd7fa3355a1c484807a710b8616f2fd4c373eb/Screenshot%202023-09-01%20at%2010.14.54%20AM.png" />Welcome!

Detailed strategies and case studies are presented. Design of competitive microwave amplifiers and oscillators is particularly challenging as many trade-offs are required in design, and the design decisions cannot be reduced to a formulaic flow. The emphasis is on developing design skills. This book is suitable as both an undergraduate and graduate textbook, as well as a career-long reference book.7572019-08-18T13:59:16Z2023-08-31T14:10:13ZMicrowave and RF Design: Modules<img alt="Read more about Microwave and RF Design: Modules" title="Microwave and RF Design: Modules cover image" class="cover " width="300" height="388" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NzA4LCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--23efa0e7ed79763a7a4efe3b886de3be3ebb1b96/978-1-4696-5697-7.jpg" />Microwave and RF Design: Modules focuses on the design of systems based on microwave modules. The use of modules has become increasingly important in RF and microwave engineering for rapidly realizing high performance microwave systems. When integration is ultimately to be used, building a system up using modules provides a rapid means of prototyping and testing system concepts. A wide variety of RF modules including amplifiers, local oscillators, switches, circulators, isolators, phase detectors, frequency multipliers and dividers, phase-locked loops, and direct digital synthesizers are considered. Detailed design strategies for synthesizing filters based on parallel coupled lines are presented. The reader will gain an appreciation of design by synthesis. This book is suitable as both an undergraduate and graduate textbook, as well as a career-long reference book.7562019-08-18T13:43:50Z2023-08-31T14:10:13ZMicrowave and RF Design: Networks<img alt="Read more about Microwave and RF Design: Networks" title="Microwave and RF Design: Networks cover image" class="cover " width="300" height="388" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NzA3LCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--954dd74f955f1b8645abaea43946ea087a21342f/978-1-4696-5695-3.jpg" />Microwave and RF Design: Networks presents the tools and techniques required to analyze and design microwave and RF circuits. Because of the finite speed of light, microwave circuits must be considered to be spatially distributed and so there is not a single ground. As such metrics that can be used to describe power flow are of most use. The topics covered include scattering parameters, signal flow graphs, and Smith charts. Acquiring expertise in these is the biggest barriers to a successful career in microwave and RF engineering. This book is suitable as both an undergraduate and graduate textbook, as well as a career-long reference book.
