Remote Sensing of Night-time Light

Remote Sensing of Night-time Light

Satellite images acquired at night provide a visually arresting perspective of the Earth and the human activities that light up the otherwise mostly dark Earth. These night-time light satellite images can be compiled into a geospatial time series that represent an invaluable source of information for both the natural and social sciences. Night-time light remote sensing has been shown to be particularly useful for a range of natural science and social science applications including studies relating to urban development demography sociology fishing activity light pollution and the consequences of civil war. Key sensors for these time-series include the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program’s Operational Linescan System (DMSP/OLS) and the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership Satellite’s Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite Day/Night Band (Suomi NPP/VIIRS DNB). An increasing number of alternative sources are also available including high spatial resolution and multispectral sensors. This book captures key methodological issues associated with pre-processing night-time light data documents state of the art analysis methods and explores a wide range of applications. Major sections focus on NPP/VIIRS DNB processing; inter-calibration between NPP/VIIRS and DMPS/OLS; applications associated with socio-economic activities applications in monitoring urbanization; and fishing activity monitoring. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Remote Sensing. | Remote Sensing of Night-time Light

Spatial Transparency in Architecture Light Layering and Porosity

Spatial Transparency in Architecture Light Layering and Porosity

This volume explores the concept of spatial transparency; a form of spatial continuity that articulates depth through permeable layered or porous three-dimensional organizations where interstitial light is present. Although transparency is a concept largely associated with the modern movement the use of glazed components and twentieth-century architectural discourse spatial transparency is a form of depth awareness through intermediate domains takes place through the interstitial fabric of a structure and occurs when several consecutive domains are spatially and visually connected. These immersive environments invite active participation not as one-way communication but as a series of visual and experiential exchanges interdependencies and relationships. Divided into four parts the book examines spatial transparency in massive opaque constructions light constructions glass assemblies and hybrid systems. It analyzes both the phenomenon of visual connectivity and continuity through intermediate spaces and spatial transparency’s capacity for promoting and enabling graded interflowing environmental transactions. Using historical and contemporary examples it catalogs some of the most common and recurring configurations that manifest these characteristics. Over 20 international case studies from the Americas to Japan are presented to argue that environments exist in porous mediums and that by studying the openings voids light and materials of layered and/or permeable organizations important insights about space making can be revealed. Written for students and academics this book explores various expressions of spatial transparency in architecture and helps connect their abstract ideas with significant built works analytical drawings and comparison charts. | Spatial Transparency in Architecture Light Layering and Porosity

Philanthropy and Light Carnegie Libraries and the Advent of Transatlantic Standards for Public Space

Walter Gropius associated standardisation with promoting civilisation in 1935 yet Andrew Carnegie’s influence on the proliferation of pattern book public library plans internationally predated these observations by 50 years. Through the first twenty years of his programme he supported the erection of almost three thousand public buildings across Britain and America. Though better acknowledged in the US than the UK this philanthropic contribution radically extended the scope of public provision and remains incomparable in its scale and scope in both nations. Frequently engraved with the self-deifying slogan Let there be Light open access to navigate these new interior public spaces after work coincided with the first provision of electric light. Towards the end of the nineteenth century professional groups had sought to specify minimum standards of natural light and air for schools and hospitals. However the commercial quantification of electricity accelerated the development of a readily comparable vocabulary to prescribe adequate quantities of light for all tasks regardless of their location or orientation. Seeking to gauge the extent of universal values this book concentrates on the design and performance of a handful of early Carnegie library buildings in Britain and America identifying their response to contemporary design theory but also by contrast to their respective local environmental contexts. It examines whether their standards of provision were equitable and if these privately financed public buildings were the first roots of generically standardised public environments to be shared transatlantically. The book also argues that the public library building type can provide a datum for acknowledging the twentieth century legacy of shared international environmental standards for public spaces more broadly. | Philanthropy and Light Carnegie Libraries and the Advent of Transatlantic Standards for Public Space

Jung's Shadow Concept The Hidden Light and Darkness within Ourselves

Jung's Shadow Concept The Hidden Light and Darkness within Ourselves

This insightful volume is designed as a series of invitations towards living attentiveness examining how we all make the “other” through “projection” (blaming and shaming the other outside ourselves) our enemy with whom we prefer not to dialogue. All of us are faced daily with individual and collective manifestations of the Shadow – all that we fear despise and makes us feel ashamed. Carl Jung’s concept of the Shadow emerging as it did from his personal confrontation with the realms of his unconscious self is one of the most important contributions he made to the understanding of humanity and to depth psychology that realm where the focus is on unconscious processes. The contributors to this book reframe his concept in the context of contemporary Jungian thinking exploring how the Shadow develops in an individual’s infancy and adolescence and its culmination where collective manifestations of the Shadow are addressed. The book offers a voyage through a series of fundamental Shadow concepts and themes including couples relationships disease organizations Evil fundamentalism ecology and boundary violation before ending with a chapter designed to help us integrate the Shadow and hold contra-positions with patience and a tilt towards mutual understanding rather than being locked in polarities. This fascinating new book will be of considerable interest to the general public Jungian analysts trainees scholars and therapists both in training and practice with an interest in the inner world. | Jung's Shadow Concept The Hidden Light and Darkness within Ourselves

From Obscurity to Light Women in Early Medieval Orissa (Seventh to Twelfth Centuries AD)

From Obscurity to Light Women in Early Medieval Orissa (Seventh to Twelfth Centuries AD)

This book attempts to reintegrate women into the socio-political milieu of early medieval Orissa. Its sources are inscriptions mostly Sanskrit that date from the seventh century to the end of the reign of the Imperial Ganga ruler Anantavarman Codagangadeva (CE 1078-1147). The evidence indicates that royal and non-royal women had varying but undeniably important roles to play in the socio-political fabric of this prominent regional entity. The Bhauma-Kara dynasty (c. mid-eighth/ninth-late tenth century) that witnessed the rule of six women four of them in succession is a case in point. In addition the palpable presence of several other royal and non-royal women is consistently documented in the epigraphic record. This is an aspect that has received very little attention in secondary works thereby rendering this study a pioneering one. The work follows on from Rangachari’s earlier Invisible Women Visible Histories: Gender Polity and Society in North India (7th to 12th century ad) which had focused on important gendered aspects of early medieval north India through an analysis of literary and epigraphic sources of Kashmir Kanauj Bengal and Bihar. The invisibilization of women whereby their presence is routinely ignored or trivialized was similarly its underlying essence.
