  • Lattice Dynamics of Molecular Crystals and Weak Chemical Interactions

    Investigation using Raman Spectroscopy Methods
    • 1st Edition
    • Boris Kolesov
    • English
    Lattice Dynamics of Molecular Crystals and Weak Chemical Interactions: Investigation using Raman Spectroscopy Methods shows how to fully exploit the capabilities of Raman spectroscopy in weak chemical interactions in molecular crystals, presenting the concept of weak chemical interactions based on experimental study of a wide class of molecular crystals. Primarily written for physical and organic chemists, scientists, and engineers involved in crystal engineering and the synthesis and design of molecular crystals and crystalline structures containing weak chemical interactions, this book is also ideal for anyone investigating lattice dynamics probed by Raman spectroscopy, including a diverse range of chemists and physicists.Provided information on the temperature dependence of the parameters of vibrational modes makes it possible to obtain information on the potential of intermolecular interaction, the degree of its anharmonicity, the orientational mobility of molecules in a crystal, structural phase transitions, and the behavior of a proton on a hydrogen bond.
  • Public Health Communication

    • 1st Edition
    • Bernard Seytre
    • English
    Offering both a theoretical framework and practical approach to this increasingly important topic, Public Health Communication addresses an unmet need in the field of public health. Grounded in the author’s research and experience, and in light of an increase in the prevalence of communicable diseases and the aftermath of COVID-19, this unique title provides a scientific perspective of communication as an integral part of public health programs. The author proposes the theory of “health culture,” which bases a public health communication strategy on the culture of the target populations regarding the health issue in question, avoiding communication strategies and messages that are at best ineffective, and at worst likely to provoke resistance among the population.
  • Nitric Oxide in Plant Resilience to Abiotic Stress

    • 1st Edition
    • Ravi Gupta + 2 more
    • English
    Nitric Oxide in Plant Resilience to Abiotic Stress offers a detailed examination of this essential gasotransmitter’s pivotal role in bolstering plant defenses against environmental stressors. Part of the Plant Gasotransmitters and Molecules with Hormonal Activity series, the volume investigates the molecular mechanisms of nitric oxide (NO) biosynthesis and signaling, emphasizing how post-translational modifications like S-nitrosylation and tyrosine nitration govern key targets to activate adaptive stress responses. It systematically examines NO’s properties, detection techniques, and its regulation under both optimal and adverse conditions, providing a comprehensive understanding of how it modulates plant functions.Expanding beyond fundamental processes, the volume highlights NO’s crucial involvement across a spectrum of abiotic stresses—drought, salinity, temperature extremes, heavy metals, and UV radiation—unveiling its capacity to mitigate damage and strengthen plant resilience. It also discusses the crosstalk between NO and other signaling molecules, such as phytohormones and emerging growth regulators, revealing synergistic pathways that underpin sustainable agriculture.Designed for researchers, advanced students, and plant scientists worldwide, this work illuminates the potential of NO to drive innovations in breeding strategies, enabling crop improvement to overcome the challenges posed by a changing climate and expanding environmental pressures.
