Book Synopsis Landscapes on the Edge by : National Research Council
Download or read book Landscapes on the Edge written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-04-25 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During geologic spans of time, Earth's shifting tectonic plates, atmosphere, freezing water, thawing ice, flowing rivers, and evolving life have shaped Earth's surface features. The resulting hills, mountains, valleys, and plains shelter ecosystems that interact with all life and provide a record of Earth surface processes that extend back through Earth's history. Despite rapidly growing scientific knowledge of Earth surface interactions, and the increasing availability of new monitoring technologies, there is still little understanding of how these processes generate and degrade landscapes. Landscapes on the Edge identifies nine grand challenges in this emerging field of study and proposes four high-priority research initiatives. The book poses questions about how our planet's past can tell us about its future, how landscapes record climate and tectonics, and how Earth surface science can contribute to developing a sustainable living surface for future generations.

Book Synopsis Thriving on Our Changing Planet: A Decadal Strategy for Earth Observation from Space by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book Thriving on Our Changing Planet: A Decadal Strategy for Earth Observation from Space written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-06-18 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live on a dynamic Earth shaped by both natural processes and the impacts of humans on their environment. It is in our collective interest to observe and understand our planet, and to predict future behavior to the extent possible, in order to effectively manage resources, successfully respond to threats from natural and human-induced environmental change, and capitalize on the opportunities â€" social, economic, security, and more â€" that such knowledge can bring. By continuously monitoring and exploring Earth, developing a deep understanding of its evolving behavior, and characterizing the processes that shape and reshape the environment in which we live, we not only advance knowledge and basic discovery about our planet, but we further develop the foundation upon which benefits to society are built. Thriving on Our Changing Planet: A Decadal Strategy for Earth Observation from Space (National Academies Press, 2018) provides detailed guidance on how relevant federal agencies can ensure that the United States receives the maximum benefit from its investments in Earth observations from space, while operating within realistic cost constraints. This short booklet, designed to be accessible to the general public, provides a summary of the key ideas and recommendations from the full decadal survey report.
Book Synopsis Death's Bright Angel Part Three: A Bridge Across Forever by : Marion Earl MacKenzie
Download or read book Death's Bright Angel Part Three: A Bridge Across Forever written by Marion Earl MacKenzie and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Bridge Across Forever, sequel to Death’s Bright Angel, Part Two: Sacred Ground, is the final installment in the Sacred Ground Trilogy. There are two separate time-lines. As the story opens, it is 2019 and Dr. Glen Abbott has traveled to Scotland to meet with Mairi-Lea Hartford at the insistence of Gaia Magni, the Supreme Spiritual Being charged with restoring harmony and balance to Nature and preventing a Sixth Extinction Level Event (ELE). Gaia Magni has taken control of Earth. She is prepared, if necessary, to wipe humanity from the face of the Earth in order to protect the millions of other species in the Biosphere. But Earth has lost her resiliency and Gaia Magni is forced to adopt extreme measures in order to save Nature and humanity. She seeks help from the late John Hartford, the brilliant theoretical physicist assassinated in 1983 by the Soviet Union. Gaia Magni requires Hartford’s unique understanding of quantum theory to build a Galactic Bridge that will link Earth with Echo, the new world she has created 70,000 light years across the galaxy. Echo is humanity’s last chance to live in harmony and balance with Nature. But a visit to an Alternate Reality reveals a devastating future for Earth. The Doomsday Clock is ticking and it is a race against Time to save the Biosphere. In the alternate reality of 2017, Glen Abbott’s relationship with Virginia Montgomery is failing. She suffers from a retrograde amnesia that has left her without any emotional connection to her daughter or husband. Their marriage is on the rocks and he fears he has lost his chance to reclaim the love and contentment they had enjoyed before her death in 2018. In desperation, he tells her the truth; that he is from the future and that their daughter, Hannah, will evolve into Gaia Magni upon her Ascension. But can Montgomery, who has her own demons to contend with, believe him? Trust him? Ever love him again?
Book Synopsis Our Magnetic Earth by : Ronald T. Merrill
Download or read book Our Magnetic Earth written by Ronald T. Merrill and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the general public, magnetism often seems more the province of new age quacks, movie mad scientists, and grade-school teachers than an area of actual, ongoing scientific inquiry. But as Ronald T. Merrill reveals in Our Magnetic Earth, geomagnetism really is an enduring, vibrant area of science, one that offers answers to some of the biggest questions about our planet’s past—and maybe even its future. In a clear and careful fashion, he lays out the physics of geomagnetism and magnetic fields, then goes on to explain how Earth’s magnetic field provides crucial evidence for our understanding of continental drift and plate tectonics; how and why animals, ranging from bacteria to mammals, sense and use the magnetic field; how changes in climate over eons can be studied through variations in the magnetic field in rocks; and much more. Throughout, Merrill peppers his scientific account with bizarre anecdotes and fascinating details, from levitating pizzas to Moon missions to blackmailing KGB agents—a reminder that real science can at times be stranger, and more amusing, than fiction. A winning primer for anyone who has ever struggled with a compass or admired a ragged V of migrating geese, Our Magnetic Earth demonstrates that education and entertainment need not be polar opposites.

Book Synopsis Earthfast, the Dawn of a New World by : Richard Thornton
Download or read book Earthfast, the Dawn of a New World written by Richard Thornton and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-05-17 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthfast is the culmination of a lifetime of architectural practice and seven years of concentrated research. The journey began when archeologists at the American Museum of Natural History asked Richard to prepare architectural drawings of the Mission Santa Catalina de Guale on St. Catherines Island, GA. One discovery led to another. A big, black hole in American history was filled by reading dozens of obscure 16th and 17th century books, plus visiting many archaeological sites. Being Creek Indian, Richard was able to discern evidence from passages on Native Americans that were missed by earlier scholars. This is the first book to comprehensively examine the architecture and planning practices of the early French, Spanish and English colonies. It is unique. Richard Thornton is a professional Architect & City Planner with degrees from Georgia Tech and Georgie State University. He is the national Architecture columnist for the Examiner and appeared on the premier of the History Channel's America Unearthed.
Book Synopsis Bridges to Global Ethics by : Giuseppe Di Capua
Download or read book Bridges to Global Ethics written by Giuseppe Di Capua and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-20 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to the current discussion on geoethics and global ethics within the geoscience and humanities communities. It provides new content and insights into developing convergent human actions in response to global anthropogenic changes, based on perspectives that make it possible to combine geoscience knowledge with humanities and social sciences approaches. Selected authors present their reflections, findings and insights regarding the vision of geoethics (ethics of responsibility towards the Earth) as global ethics from philosophical, humanities and social sciences perspectives. In addition, they discuss ethical frameworks from diverse cultural traditions, searching for points of intersection with geoethics. The goal: for global environmental problems to be managed via multi-perspective approaches that can more effectively accommodate complexity. Combining the strengths of the geosciences, humanities and social sciences can pave the way for a paradigm shift in how human societies develop adaptive, sustainable responses to environmental changes and societal inequalities.
Book Synopsis Extinctions in the History of Life by : Paul D. Taylor
Download or read book Extinctions in the History of Life written by Paul D. Taylor and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-11-11 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extinction is the ultimate fate of all biological species - over 99 percent of the species that have ever inhabited the Earth are now extinct. The long fossil record of life provides scientists with crucial information about when species became extinct, which species were most vulnerable to extinction, and what processes may have brought about extinctions in the geological past. Key aspects of extinctions in the history of life are here reviewed by six leading palaeontologists, providing a source text for geology and biology undergraduates as well as more advanced scholars. Topical issues such as the causes of mass extinctions and how animal and plant life has recovered from these cataclysmic events that have shaped biological evolution are dealt with. This helps us to view the biodiversity crisis in a broader context, and shows how large-scale extinctions have had profound and long-lasting effects on the Earth's biosphere.
