Agriculture is one of the human endeavors that is highly dependent on agrometeorology. Agrometeorology, which is short for agricultural meteorology, is a multi-disciplinary endeavor to optimize crop productivity, through understanding atmosphere and related phenomena. This book discusses the general and application importance of agrometeorology. A level of difficulty is added in agrometeorology by its variability. Therefore, this book looks at some aspects of agrometeorology like radiation, energy balance and hydrology and how they affect physical chemical and biology factors in crop and animal farming. The book further provides the reader with some recommendations of how to adjust effect of climate on agricultural products based on crop and animal requirements. There is wide ranges of initiatives and innovations involved in management of climatic effect on agriculture, ranging from affordable to expensive. This book explains some initiatives and innovations that can be applied by small and large farmers and big organizations like governments in trying to achieve food security. Agrometeorology management can complex or easy and affordable or costly, this book shows the collaborative approach to advice technical processes, resource exploitation and land use for adequate inclusive sustainable agrometeorology management strategies.

Lobsters are valuable and in-demand crustaceans worldwide, but research on their biology and ecology is insufficient, particularly for various species. There are 260 lobster species classified under six families. The Indian lobster fishery is primarily focused on P. polyphagus. Lobsters have different growth patterns and inhabit various environments, from soft substrates to rocky crevices in coastal waters and continental slopes. Global lobster stocks are often overexploited, emphasizing the need for sustainable management. Lobster aquaculture is emerging, with farmers growing juvenile lobsters for marketable size and using marine cages and formulated feeds. Extensive research on different lobster species, including feed quality, disease management, and the impact of various factors, is crucial for both aquaculture and capture activities. There is considerable interest in managing precious lobster populations and conducting related research. The study of lobster biology has a long history, highlighting the interconnectedness of basic and practical research. The management of extensively fished lobster populations is not only a biological and economic issue but also a political one in many countries. For undergraduate and graduate students, as well as research scientists, this book serves as a valuable resource for understanding the fundamental elements of lobster aquaculture.

Understanding the physiological demands of exercise is crucial for caring for animal, particularly in training athletic ones. Equine exercise physiology has advanced, providing a scientific foundation for nutrition, training, and overall horse athlete care. Knowledge of physiological mechanisms during exercise and conditioning offers valuable insights into animal athlete functions. Modern equine exercise physiology considers nutrition, biomechanics, behavior, pharmacology, and other factors to optimize care for equine athletes. Massage therapy, once disregarded, is now recognized as beneficial for horses of all ages, aiding in injury recovery, stress relief, and overall well-being. Massage positively impacts circulation, muscles, and the nervous system, leading to enhanced performance and improved demeanor over time. The book is a comprehensive guide for students and a valuable resource for researchers in animal physiotherapy.

Discusses recent trends and discoveries in physical organic chemistry. The text provides the chemical community with authoritative and critical assessments of the many aspects of field. The field is a rapidly developing one, with results and methodologies finding application from biology to solid state physics.
