Ingenious Devices and Systems (Paperback)

Landscape managers are required to make decisions within complex environments. Clearly many of these decisions demand a reasonable knowledge of many technologies including power systems, machinery, post harvest technologies, geographic information systems, remote sensing and automatic data acquisition systems that are available to the modern landscape manager. On the other hand, engineers must synthesis and apply a vast array of higher order sciences for the benefit of society and the environment. This book is not meant to be an engineering text book, neither is it comprehensive in its coverage of every aspect of engineering; however it should provide landscape managers with an appreciation and brief introduction to the science and art of environmental engineering, which has direct application to landscape monitoring and management.
