Ecosystem Services in post-secondary and professional education
No full textFormal post-secondary and informal professional educational opportunities have increasingly become an important mode of supporting the understanding, dissemination, and application of ecosystem services (ES). The development of professional activities and group characteristics (e.g., a shared vocabulary, common objectives, time dedication) together with teaching and education are instrumental for the institutionalization of new ideas, concepts, and disciplines in society. The integration of ES in post-secondary and professional education will help to understand complex human-environment interactions and shape policy towards greater socio-ecological sustainability. This dataset represents ES-related courses and programs at the post-secondary and professional levels collected in mid-2020 using Internet searches, crowdsourcing techniques, and personal knowledge. We discovered 20 degree-granting programs and 112 courses focused on or related to ES and cataloged their various characteristics, including host(s), mode of instruction, location, level of study, length, language, ES content focus, disciplines represented, and interdisciplinarity

Finite element reliability methods using DIANA
No full textFinite element relia.bility methods (FERM) a.re used for the analysis of a simply supported beam with a randomly distributed elastic stiffness.
