Stanford Libraries' Earth and Planetary Sciences collections cover subject areas related to planetary processes, such as mineralogy, volcanology, seismology, hydrology, geology, astronomy, and atmospheric science.
About the Sustainability collection The interdisciplinary field of sustainability examines the interactions between humans and the environment and the critical connections between policy and technology solutions, issues of social justice, institutional and economic infrastructure, and the politics of transitioning to more sustainable ways of life. Subject specialists provide research and instructional support for discovery, access, management, and preservation through consultations, connecting users to additional external and library resources.
About the Marine Sciences and Aquatic Biology collection Our collections in marine sciences and aquatic biology range from early taxonomic descriptions of animals and marine algae to contemporary resources in biodiversity, fisheries, sustainability, and more. We can help you discover materials in our own collections as well as navigate external federated repositories like DataONE and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF).
About the Oceanography collection Our oceanographic collections include the areas of physical, chemical, geological, and biological oceanography; ecosystem dynamics; ocean currents, waves, and geophysical fluid dynamics; plate tectonics and the geology of the sea floor; and more. We also have oceanographic data for Monterey Bay and beyond.
Stanford Libraries supports the study of geophysics with print and digital collections that cover areas such as seismology, geodesy, hydrology, geomagnetism, as well as planetary and atmospheric science.
Stanford Libraries' Energy Science and Engineering collections contain print and digital resources for the study of petrology, mining, renewable energy, engineering, and sustainability.
Stanford Libraries' Earth Systems Science collections include print and digital resources for the study of geology, biology, hydrology, oceans, as well as atmosphere and climate sciences.
Join Stanford University's Center for Latin American Studies, the Department of Iberian and Latin American Cultures, the Division of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages, and the Stanford Libraries for a scholarly panel to commemorate half a century of the September 11, 1974 coup with Michael J.
Helen Colijn (1920-2006) was held captive in a Japanese prison camp on the island of Sumatra for three and one-half years during World War II. One remarkable survival mechanism for some of the prisoners at the Women’s Barracks Camp in Palembang was making music, and a series of concerts was prepared and given in which the women sang a cappella arrangements of great works of Western Art music.
iThenticate is a web-based service that compares research manuscripts, grant proposals, and other scholarly writing against an extensive database of published content to highlight both potential originality concerns and inclusion of AI-generated text. Using iThenticate, the same tool utilized by most scholarly journals and funding agencies to screen submissions, allows Stanford authors to identify and address potentially inappropriate duplication and citation practices prior to external distribution.
This workshop will provide an introduction to Dask in Python for satellite image analysis on distributed systems at scale.
