Summary

Tree Rings explores the science of dendrochronology, revealing how annual tree rings act as natural archives of environmental history. By examining these rings, scientists can reconstruct past climates, date archaeological sites, and assess forest health.

 
One intriguing fact is how variations in ring width reflect environmental stressors like drought, offering insights into past ecological conditions. Another is the ability to pinpoint the timing of events like volcanic eruptions through unique signatures in tree-ring patterns, providing a timeline of Earth's history.

 
The book progresses from foundational principles of tree-ring formation and the factors influencing their growth to specific applications like climate reconstruction and archaeological dating. It emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of tree-ring analysis, connecting environmental science, Earth Sciences Geography, and forest ecology to better understand environmental challenges.

 
A unique aspect of the book is its focus on applying dendrochronological insights to contemporary issues, especially climate change and sustainable resource management.

    “Lake Michigan may be coming to Idaho.” 
That’s what an Idaho radio commentator said in June 2021. Holding approximately 20% of the world’s surface freshwater, the Great Lakes are once again a target for the drought-ridden West, which is facing climate change, massive fires, and shrinking water supplies. And in a potentially far bigger threat, Wall Street is creating markets that could lead to the trading of freshwaters as a commodity like corn or oil. The Great Lakes are in danger of becoming privately exploited on a large scale by those who have priorities other than stewardship. 
In the updated edition of Great Lakes for Sale, author Dave Dempsey offers surprising, even controversial, ideas on how to prevent the fulfillment of this nightmare scenario. They include attacking water commercialization, curbing abuse of the Great Lakes Compact, and devising plans for limited sharing of the Great Lakes to forestall humanitarian disasters. If the Great Lakes are to remain great, new thinking and action will be required.

    The acclaimed nature writer continues his series exploring the fact and folklore of American plant life with this beautifully illustrated volume. In The Book of Field and Roadside, John Eastman explores the botanical life of open dryland habitats. Picking up where typical field guides leave off, this handy reference takes an ecological approach, providing complete descriptions of eighty-five plants (from Ailanthus to Yucca) found in fields, open meadows, and along roadsides, as well as wildlife communities associated with them.  Written in an engaging manner, this book helps readers identify dryland plants, discusses what other organisms, plant and animal, might be found in the same area, and explains why. The informative text is enhanced by beautifully detailed illustrations by nature artist Amelia Hansen.

    The Nature Book

    Part sweeping evocation of Earth's rhythms, part literary archive, part post-human novel, The Nature Book collages descriptions of the natural world into a singular symphonic paean to the planet. 
 
 
 
What does our nature writing say about us, and more urgently, what would it say without us? Tom Comitta investigates these questions and more in The Nature Book, a "literary supercut" that arranges writing about the natural world from three hundred works of fiction into a provocative re-envisioning of the novel. With fiction's traditional background of flora and fauna brought to the fore, people and their structures disappear, giving center stage to animals, landforms, and weather patterns—honored in their own right rather than for their ambient role in human drama. The Nature Book challenges the confines of anthropocentrism with sublime artistic vision, traversing mountains, forests, oceans, and space to shift our attention toward the magnificently complex and interconnected world around us.
