Book Synopsis Of Mists and Monsoons by : Adele Smith
Download or read book Of Mists and Monsoons written by Adele Smith and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2014-11-05 with total page 763 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of Mists and Monsoons traces the life and fortunes of the principal character from the mists of Ireland to the monsoons of India. Born the eldest child of an Irish Catholic family of subsistent potato farmers, Sean O'Hara was in his teens when Ireland was overwhelmed by the Great Famine in 1845. His family struggled to survive two successive years of potato blight but succumbed one by one, leaving Sean the sole survivor.The only way out offered was the chance to join a unit of the British Army stationed in Dublin, and with them, he was transported to India. He changed his name, which was customary for Irish recruits, and arrived in India as Joseph Harrington. Years on, Joe was overwhelmed again; this time by the Indian Sepoy Mutiny of 1857. In the meantime, this remarkable young man overcame every challenge he was set. He married an Irish girl he found in a convent and, with her, raised a family of four. The story is loosely based on the author's own family history as her great grandfather was indeed born in Ireland, joined the British Army, and went to India. He stayed there for the rest of his life and founded a family that remained there until Partition in 1946 drove them to England and Uganda. Anecdotes from the author's childhood told by her mother are woven ito the story wherever possible. It is worthy of note that Joseph Harrington prophecied to his close friend Rajah Saeed Khan that though the Indians were defeated in their Mutiny of 1857, they would finally rise and throw off the British overlords. He was proved right in 1947.

It’s 1759—and Jamie Kinross has travelled far and wide to escape his troubled past, eventually settling in the chaotic streets of Madras, India, where he starts life anew as a gem trader. When his mentor’s family is kidnapped, Jamie vows to save them, embarking on a dangerous mission to the city of Surat—where he encounters Zarmina Miller. She is rich, beautiful, and so cold and prideful that she is known as the “Ice Widow.” Jamie is instantly tempted by the challenge she presents. And when Jamie discovers that Zarmina has a connection to those involved in the kidnapping, he begins to see another side to her—a dark past to rival his own and a heart just waiting to be thawed . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a global overview examining monsoon variability in South Asia, Australian, South America and North American, as well as a focus on glaciers and monsoon systems. Monsoon systems are important components of the Earth's climate and play fundamental roles in water and energy balances. The variability and changes in the monsoons affect millions of people and the economies of many countries.

The Monsoons and Climate Change will be of interest to both graduate students and researchers.
Book Synopsis Of Mists and Monsoons by : Adele Smith
Download or read book Of Mists and Monsoons written by Adele Smith and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of Mists and Monsoons traces the varying fortunes of a young man caught up in the horror of the Irish Famine of the mid-19th Century. The story unfolds as he is rescued from certain death by starvation along with the rest of his family, and joins the British Army as a drummer boy, and travels to India. This remarkable character finds himself caught up in the Indian Mutiny 10 years later, but survives to found a family of his own. The leading character is loosely based on the author's own great-grandfather, who did leave Ireland in the mid 18th Century and travel to India with the British Army where he founded a family dynasty that endured until Partition in 1946. Anecdotes from the author's mother and extended family are used freely in the text.
Book Synopsis Global Monsoon System, The: Research And Forecast (2nd Edition) by : Chih-pei Chang
Download or read book Global Monsoon System, The: Research And Forecast (2nd Edition) written by Chih-pei Chang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011-04-21 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a current review of the science of monsoon research and forecasting. The contents are based on the invited reviews presented at the World Meteorological Organization's Fourth International Workshop on Monsoons in late 2008, with subsequent manuscripts revised from 2009 to early 2010. The book builds on the concept that the monsoons in various parts of the globe can be viewed as components of an integrated global monsoon system, while emphasizing that significant region-specific characteristics are present in individual monsoon regions. The topics covered include all major monsoon regions and time scales (mesoscale, synoptic, intraseasonal, interannual, decadal, and climate change). It is intended to provide an updated comprehensive review of the current status of knowledge, modeling capability, and future directions in the research of monsoon systems around the world.
Book Synopsis Monsoon as Method by : Lindsay Bremner
Download or read book Monsoon as Method written by Lindsay Bremner and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-05-25 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An edited volume by Monsoon Assemblages, a European Research Council funded research project. The book presents the methods that Monsoon Assemblages has evolved for engaging the monsoon, a globally connected weather system, as a coproducer of urban life and space in South and Southeast Asian cities. It challenges views of climate as an inert backdrop to urban life, instead suggesting that it is materially and spatially active in shaping urban politics, ecologies, infrastructures, buildings and bodies. It combines critical texts with cartography, photography and ethnography to present the project’s methodology and its outcomes and invites urban practitioners to think differently about space, time, representation and human and non-human agency. It offers intra-disciplinary, intra-active methods for rethinking human and non-human relations with weather in ways that meet the challenges of climate change and the Anthropocene.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Publication Presents A Collection Of 16 Selected Research/ Review Papers On Various Aspects Of Monsoons Those Were Discussed During The International Roundtable On Understanding And Prediction Of Summer And Winter Monsoons Held At Jakarta/ Bandung, Indonesia During 21-24 November, 2005. Monsoons Modulate The Rhythm Of Life In Several Countries. The Amount Of Rain Received During Monsoons Critically Controls The Way Of Life, Culture And Economy. The Word Monsoon Indicates A Rainy Season But The Domain Of Monsoon Encompasses Seasonal Changes In Prevailing Surface Wind Direction Especially Between Summer And Winter. The Ability To Anticipate How Monsoon And The Resultant Climate, Will Behave From One Year To The Next Will Lead To Better Management Of Agriculture, Water Supplies, Fisheries And Other Resources. Prediction Of Monsoon However Is One Of The Major Challenges Of Climate Research As It Is An Extremely Complex Phenomenon Involving Variabilities Over A Wide Range Of Spatial And Temporal Scales. The Topics Covered In This Volume Include Observed Aspects Of Monsoons In Several Countries, Analyses Of Model Simulations And Forecasts, Survey Of Instrumentation And Analysis Techniques And Projections Of Monsoon In The Future Climate. Hence, The Publication Is Undoubtedly, A Useful Reference Material For The Meteorologists And Experts Working In The Area Of Monsoon Prediction And Will Help The Developing Countries In Working Out Appropriate Plans And Programmes On Understanding And Prediction Of Monsoons.
