Content: Wenn in wissenschaftlichen Zusammenhängen etwas sichtbar wird, dann häufig, weil es in experimentellen Verfahren sichtbar gemacht worden ist. Die operative »Sichtbarmachung« erlaubt neue Perspektiven auf die disjunktive Verschränktheit von Wissenschafts- und Mediengeschichte. Eine Archäologie des Sichtbaren - wie sie etwa am Beispiel mikrofotografischer Verfahren der Bakteriologie nachvollzogen werden kann - betont die materiell-diskursive Konfiguration von Wissensproduktion. Die erzeugten »epistemischen Bilder« fungieren demnach als Relais zwischen Erkenntnis und Sichtbarkeit. Sebastian Scholz nähert sich dieser komplexen Konstellation mit dem Ziel, »das Sichtbare« zu problematisieren und Potentiale einer operativen Medien-Onto-Epistemologie aufzuzeigen.

Content: Biochar is the carbon-rich organic matter that remains after heating biomass under minimization of oxygen during a process called pyrolysis. Its relevance to deforestation, agricultural resilience, and energy production, particularly in developing countries, makes it an important issue. This report offers a review of what is known about opportunities and risks of biochar systems. Its aim is to provide a state of the art overview of current knowledge regarding biochar science. In that sense the report also offers a reconciling view on different scientific opinions about biochar providing an ove

Content: Karl Valentin once asked: "How can it be that only as much happens as fits into the newspaper the next day?" He focussed on the problem that information of the past has to be organised, arranged and above all: selected and put into form in order to be perceived as a whole. In this sense, the process of selection must be seen as the fundamental moment - the "Urszene" - of making History. This book shows selection as highly creative act. With the richness of early medieval material it can be demonstrated that creative selection was omnipresent and took place even in unexpected text genres.The book demonstrates the variety how premodern authors dealt with "unimportant", unpleasant or unwanted past. It provides a general overview for regions and text genres in early medieval Europe.

Content: The Amazon basin is a key component of the global carbon cycle. Not only is the old-growth rainforests in the basin huge carbon storage with about 120 billion metric tons of carbon in their biomass, but they also process annually twice the rate of global anthropogenic fossil fuel emissions through respiration and photosynthesis. In addition, the basin is the largest global repository of biodiversity and produces about 20 percent of the world's flow of fresh water into the oceans.Despite the large CO2 efflux from recent deforestation, the Amazon rainforest is still considered to be a net carbon
