Beschreibung

Tidal Carbon Cycling explores the significant, yet often overlooked, role of tides in the ocean's carbon cycle, a critical component of global climate regulation. It argues that tidal mixing enhances the vertical transport of nutrients and carbon, fueling phytoplankton growth. This process acts as a biological pump, drawing atmospheric carbon dioxide into the ocean, with some of it being sequestered in the deep sea for long periods. Did you know that the efficiency of this biological pump is directly influenced by the strength and location of tidal mixing?

The book synthesizes observational data, numerical modeling, and theoretical frameworks to demonstrate the influence of tides on carbon uptake. It begins by explaining the basics of tidal dynamics and ocean mixing before examining the link between tidal mixing and primary productivity. It then explores the fate of biologically fixed carbon, including its transport and long-term storage. Finally, it addresses the implications for climate change mitigation.

The book stands out by focusing on the understudied impact of tides, differentiating itself from research that emphasizes wind-driven or convective mixing. This comprehensive approach, suitable for students and researchers in oceanography and climate science, provides a deeper understanding of oceanography, climatology, and biogeochemistry. It emphasizes the real-world applications, such as improving climate models and informing carbon sequestration strategies, and highlights the potential for "blue carbon" initiatives in coastal ecosystems.

Faith Christie RN

Is it possible to be a Christian and a nurse at the same time? 
When I first started out in my calling as a nurse, I thought the answer to that question was an easy "yes," but then as I walked the long halls of the hospital, I started to have questions:Is it ever okay to pray for a patient?Why do I feel so awkward asking for a chaplain?When death is real, does heaven have a place in the hospital? 
I tried to find resources written by other Christian medical professionals to help me, but all I ever heard were statements on ethics and the legal repercussions of bringing "coercive" faith to the bedside. 
Then I faced death myself in an ICU bed and learned that a lot of my fears were irrelevant in the Presence of the living God. And with that realization, I began to learn how God could make me a Christian and a nurse at the same time. 
Facing death in an ICU bed is a high-risk education not everyone can afford, so I've collected the lessons learned during my journey in this book. These spiritual case studies can be used to help nurses bring their faith to work. 
Discussion Questions included for small group study or personal growth.

The Last Drop - Solving the...

Tim Smedley

Read by the author, Tim Smedley.The Times Book of the Year pickA gripping, thought-provoking and ultimately optimistic investigation into the world’s next great climate crisis – the scarcity of water.‘Smart, sobering, and scholarly. ’ – Steve Brusatte, author of The Rise and Fall of DinosaursWater scarcity is the next big climate crisis. Water stress – not just scarcity, but also quality issues caused by pollution – is already driving the first waves of climate refugees. Rivers are drying out before they meet the oceans and ancient lakes are disappearing. It’s increasingly clear that human mismanagement of water is dangerously unsustainable, for both ecological and human survival. And yet in recent years some key countries have been quietly and very successfully addressing water stress.How are Singapore and Israel, for example – both severely water-stressed countries – not in the same predicament as Chennai or California?In The Last Drop, award-winning environmental journalist Tim Smedley meets experts, victims, activists and pioneers to find out how we can mend the water table that our survival depends upon. He offers a fascinating, universally relevant account of the environmental and human factors that have led us to this point, and suggests practical ways to address the crisis, before it’s too late.'You will never see the water you use in the same way again' – Helen Czerski, BBC broadcaster
