Local Integration and Shared Resource Management in Protracted Refugee Camps
In light of global reforms to speed up local integration in protracted refugee settings, refugees and host communities need more capacity-building support around natural-resource management and resource-sharing. This article presents the findings of research conducted in Ethiopia and Djibouti focused on refugees and environmental resource management. Using remote sensing and land cover change analyses, as well as qualitative interviewing of refug…
History of the Ottoman Empire
A History of the Ottoman Empire
Covering the full history of the Ottoman Empire, from its genesis in post-Mongol Eurasia to its dissolution after the Great War in Europe, this textbook takes a holistic approach, considering the Ottoman worldview - what it was, how it came together, and how it fell apart. Douglas A. Howard stresses the crucial role of the Ottoman sultans and their extended household, discusses the evolution of the empire's fiscal model, and analyzes favorite wor…
Base Flow
The primary single component of the hydrological cycle that contributes water to sustainable stream flow is groundwater through base flow. Base flow is the groundwater contribution to stream flow. Base flow hydraulically connects the saturated zone to the stream channel, where groundwater intercepts the stream and contributes approximately 40% to its total annual discharge. Base flow's significant contribution to stream flow is evidenced in peren…
Hydrologic Flow Models
Hydrologic flow models are simulations or representations of natural hydrologic systems. Through the use of conceptual, physical, or numerical hydrologic flow models hydrologists may predict or forecast flooding events, better understand how to manage water resources, and test hypotheses about unknown flow conditions. With the advances in computer technology, sophisticated numerical hydrologic flow models can be run on modern desktop computers. T…

In the Wake of Kant
The deconstructionist return to Kant was celebrated April 24-26, 1986 at the University of Minnesota, in a conference titled "In the Wake of Kant: Philosophy after the Third Critique." Among those present were Lyotard and Derrida, along with a host of literary critics and some scattered philosophers. The "wake" did not turn out to be either the smooth path left by a mighty ocean liner nor the well-oiled Irish kind known to lovers of Studs Lonigan…
