The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security An Assessment of Professions Involved in Response to Disasters and T

The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security An Assessment of Professions Involved in Response to Disasters and T

The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security outlines the roles and responsibilities of various individuals and agencies involved in homeland security and all aspects of emergency management. Each chapter focuses on the practical and applied aspects of a range of public servants in various departments and the organizations that they represent. Rather than presenting a theoretical exploration alone the book examines the practical knowledge and hands-on skills related to various functions and how their decisions and actions play into the larger framework of safety and security —in the public private and nonprofit sectors. Every professional has a unique and integral part to play in fulfilling their roles and obligations whether it be in relation to prevention mitigation preparedness response or recovery operations. Personnel that frequently come to mind in such scenarios include emergency managers geographers and land-use planners EMTs and paramedics fire fighters police officers public health officials nurses public administrators and public information officers. And while these individuals are integral to homeland security and emergency management there are other professionals that also perform essential duties that—while they aren’t first-to-mind—are vital to efforts relating to terrorism and disasters; this includes pilots in the aviation sector the military attorneys psychologists and forensic professionals serving in pathology DNA and dentistry roles. Chapters provide a holistic rendering of the homeland security and emergency management landscape to present all these various professional capabilities and contributions. This includes how current functions are coordinated as well as how future efforts might change relative to a more proactive all-hazards and holistic approach. As such the book will be a useful resource for students and practitioners to understand the dynamic professions—and various disciplines and fields—that impact disaster and terrorism preparedness and response capabilities. | The Distributed Functions of Emergency Management and Homeland Security An Assessment of Professions Involved in Response to Disasters and T

Terahertz Technology Principles and Applications in the Agri-Food Industry

Terahertz Technology Principles and Applications in the Agri-Food Industry

Terahertz (THz) technology is an active area of research but only in recent years has the application of THz waves (T waves) in food and agricultural industries been explored. Terahertz Technology: Principles and Applications in the Agri-Food Industry describes the operating principles of THz technology and discusses applications and advantages of the THz regime of the electromagnetic spectrum for use in the agri-food industry. The agri-food industry is focusing on the development of non-destructive quality evaluation techniques that can provide accurate analysis quickly and are environmentally friendly. Among such techniques is THz technology that provides a novel noninvasive approach to quality assessment and safety assurance of agri-food products. The low energy of T waves is best suited for the analysis of sensitive biomaterials and does not cause photoionization. Therefore THz imaging is complementary to X-ray imaging. Although accessing the THz spectrum is tedious by conventional devices the combination of optics and electronics principles has opened a dimension of research in this field. This book provides an overview of THz spectroscopy and imaging system components types of THz systems and applications and advantages of THz for applications in the agri-food industry. It describes the basic working mechanism operating principle operation modes and system components of THz spectroscopy and imaging. Various advancements in THz technology related to agricultural and food applications are discussed that could serve as a guidebook for all those working and interested in non-destructive food assessment techniques. Key Features: Explores broader applications of the THz regime in the agri-food sector Describes system components different forms of THz systems and the working principle of T waves for spectroscopic and imaging techniques Provides insights on future research needs for industrial implementation of THz technology Complements the knowledge of other existing non-destructive spectroscopy and imaging techniques for food analysis Although books on biomedical applications of THz have been published no book is available that deals with applications in the agri-food industry. Hence Terahertz Technology is beneficial for undergraduate and graduate students and those food industry professionals involved in research related to non-destructive quality assessment and imaging techniques. | Terahertz Technology Principles and Applications in the Agri-Food Industry
