Book excerpt: The first book on the subject, this monograph examines the phenomenon of a huge sealed, freshwater lake, isolated from the rest of the world by kilometers' thick ice. The existence of melting ice at the bottom of the huge Vostok Lake has served as a model and inspired the team planning the Galileo space craft to gather data on the ice sheet of the Jupiterian moon Europa. The book provides interpretation of, and calculations for, stimulating factors for possible melting and a huge lake's existence at the bottom of the Martian ice sheets.

Book excerpt: This one-stop reference is a perfect resource for anyone interested in the North and South Poles, whether their interest relates to history, wildlife, or the geography of these regions in the news today. Global warming, a hot topic among scholars of geography and science, has led to increased interest in studying the earth's polar ice caps, which seem to be melting at an alarming rate. This accessible, two-volume encyclopedia lays a foundation for understanding global warming and other issues related to the North and South Poles. Approximately 350 alphabetically arranged, user-friendly entries treat key terms and topics, important expeditions, major figures, territorial disputes, and much more. Readers will find information on the explorations of Cook, Scott, Amundsen, and Peary; articles on humpback whales, penguins, and polar bears; and explanations of natural phenomena like the Aurora Australis and the polar night. Expedition tourism is covered, as is climate change. Ideal for high school and undergraduate students studying geography, social studies, history, and earth science, the encyclopedia will provide a better understanding of these remote and unfamiliar lands and their place in today's world.

Book excerpt: Francis Hamlin is about to make a fateful decision. His life has been rocked by the loss of his long-time girlfriend, who left suddenly and unexpectedly. All his plans now seem pointless-and that puts him in a position where he's ready to consider doing something unusual and unexpected. But what he doesn't realize is that his choice is also going to put him in dire peril. He accepts an invitation to work at a research station in the most remote and inaccessible place in the world, Vostok Station, Antarctica. It is supposed to give him an opportunity to participate in discovering something truly unique with far reaching implications to positively impact the entire outside world. It also takes him far away from the pain of his loss. But what they do discover there is something truly horrible. When people begin to die, the harsh truth about the reality of their situation sets in-they are trapped with no way to escape. All flights are impossible during the brutal winter. They cannot leave. As the already small group begins to dwindle, Hamlin discovers much about himself and his fellow crew members, and begins the healing process after the loss of his life partner. But all is for naught if they cannot figure out a way to endure this long, dark winter where death seems to be lurking around every corner. Find out if love and the human desire to survive can overcome the persistent, unexpected doom that stalks them all at Vostok Station.

Book excerpt: This book demonstrates that the method, based on the ground polar cap magnetic observations is a reliable diagnosis of the solar wind energy coming into the magnetosphere Method for the uninterruptive monitoring of the magnetosphere state (i.e. space weather). It shows that the solar wind energy pumping power, can be described by the PC growth rate, thus, the magnetospheric substorms features are predetermined by the PC dynamics. Furthermore, it goes on to show that the beginning and ending of magnetic storms is predictable. The magnetic storm start only if the solar energy input into the magnetosphere exceeds a certain level and stops when the energy input turns out to be below this level.
