Sinossi

"Lightning Physics" delves into the fascinating world of lightning, unraveling its formation, behavior, and the underlying scientific principles. The book explores how charge separation occurs within thunderclouds, leading to the immense electrical potential needed for lightning strikes. It also examines the intricate process of lightning discharge, detailing how it travels from cloud to ground or cloud to cloud. Discover how scientists use advanced technologies like high-speed cameras and computer simulations to study this powerful natural phenomenon.

 
The book begins by establishing a solid foundation in atmospheric science and electromagnetism, making complex concepts accessible to a broad audience. It progresses through the different types of lightning, such as cloud-to-ground and cloud-to-cloud, before diving into the physics of lightning discharge, including stepped leaders and return strokes.

 
A key focus is the integration of real-world observations with cutting-edge computational models, providing a holistic view of lightning physics. One interesting fact is how lightning datasets from global detection networks contribute to our understanding.

 
Ultimately, "Lightning Physics" emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach, integrating atmospheric science, electromagnetism, and computational modeling, highlighting the interconnectedness of scientific fields. The book concludes with a discussion of current research frontiers, including lightning detection networks and the potential for lightning energy harvesting, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in atmospheric electricity.

    Stone by Stone - The Magnificent...

    There once may have been 250,000 miles of stone walls in America's Northeast, stretching farther than the distance to the moon. And even though most are crumbling today, they contain a magnificent scientific and cultural story. 
     
     
     
    Stone walls tell nothing less than the story of how New England was formed, and in Robert Thorson's hands they live and breathe. Millions of years ago, New England's stones belonged to ancient mountains thrust up by prehistoric collisions between continents. Buried again over centuries by forest and soil buildup, the stones gradually worked their way back to the surface, only to become impediments to the farmers cultivating the land in the eighteenth century, who piled them into "linear landfills," a place to hold the stones. Usually the biggest investment on a farm, often exceeding that of the land and buildings combined, stone walls became a defining element of the Northeast's landscape, and a symbol of the shift to an agricultural economy. 
     
     
     
    Stone walls layer time like Russian dolls, their smallest elements reflecting the longest spans, and Thorson urges us to study them, for each stone has its own story. Linking geological history to the early American experience, Stone by Stone presents a fascinating picture of the land the Pilgrims settled, allowing us to see and understand it with new eyes.

    Once an angler masters a graphite rod, his interests often move on to the original fly rod, pliant bamboo. Until the mid-twentieth century, nearly all fly rods were bamboo. By the 1970s, fiberglass and graphite changed the world of fly-fishing. But more and more anglers are seeing bamboo rods in retail outlets, and want to give them a try. With this book, John Gierach, one of the nation's top fly-fishing writers, provides a philosophical guide to the angler who seeks this new "old" method. Gierach discusses how bamboo rods are built, how they differ from graphite rods, and how using one will change a fly fisher's approach to the sport. Fishing bamboo might be the pinnacle of fly-casting skill, and this book will help take you there.
