Summary

Cave System Routes transforms the understanding of multi-level cave systems, turning potential death traps into navigable routes for recreation, research, and especially cave rescue. It highlights how crucial it is to comprehend cave systems as interconnected networks, where airflow dynamics play a pivotal role, impacting temperature and pressure.  Delving into karst topography and speleogenesis, the book emphasizes that successful navigation is not just about pathfinding, but about understanding the geological forces at play. The book uniquely integrates geological principles with practical techniques, like compass-and-tape surveys and laser scanning, to map cave structures. It progresses from foundational concepts of cave morphology to airflow dynamics, demonstrating how tracer gases can map airflow pathways.  Finally, it covers practical applications such as exit route mapping and emergency retrieval protocols, culminating in case studies that highlight successful strategies and critical errors in past incidents. This resource is invaluable for anyone involved in cave environments, from geologists to recreational cavers and search and rescue teams. By combining detailed structural mapping with an understanding of airflow patterns and comprehensive emergency planning, Cave System Routes provides a holistic, data-driven approach to mitigate the risks associated with cave exploration.

Megalodon The: The History and...

Editors Charles River

As scary as the shark in Jaws is, the extinct megalodon had teeth three times the length of those found within the jaws of a great white shark, so a human would only have been a small snack. In fact, the megalodon was capable of swallowing a small car. Known to scientists as Otodus megalodon or Carcharocles megalodon (otodus meaning “tooth shaped like an ear”; carcharocles meaning “well known for jaggedness”; and megalodon meaning “big tooth”), this predator lived approximately 23–3.6 million years ago), from the early Miocene Epoch to the early Pliocene Epoch. The genus name Otodus and the family name Otodontidae are now the most commonly used, but scientific literature remains full of the older designation, and many of the shark experts regard the new family designation as flawed.  
	For many years, megalodon was thought to be more closely related to the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias), and though both are still part of the order Lamniformes, the two species now reside in different families: Lamnidae and Otodontidae (megalodon). Either way, while great white sharks can reach sizes of 20 feet long and nearly 2.5 tons in weight, the average megalodon was twice as big, and some of them may have been about three times as big. The sheer size allowed it to target prey as big as whales, and the massive jaw allowed it to simply tear through any kind of body with no regard for the prey’s most vulnerable spots.  
	While all of that seems to be beyond dispute, almost everything else about the history of the megalodon is up for debate, from its origins to its extinction.  The Megalodon: The History and Legacy of the World’s Largest Prehistoric Predator covers that expansive history in detail, from what is known to what remains most mysterious.

Multisolving - Creating Systems...

Elizabeth Sawin

For most of Elizabeth Sawin's career, she was not a multisolver. Instead, she worked on a single, albeit immensely important problem: climate change. Despite tremendous effort, she felt like she was chasing her tail. Unless people began to recognize the multitude of unexpected benefits from ratcheting down emissions, climate change would remain a losing political issue.That experience, along with the guidance of leaders in systems thinking and racial justice, convinced her that the world's thorniest problems may be easier to tackle together than one by one. That's multisolving: using a single investment of time or money to solve many problems at the same time. Multisolving addresses the current mismatch between complex, deeply intertwined societal issues and our siloed approach to them.This unique resource is for local school boards that need revenue for their students but don't want to overtax low-income seniors. It is for nonprofits working to reduce food waste and combat the root causes of hunger while increasing racial justice. It is for seaside communities that can protect themselves from flooding while also improving biodiversity with a living coastline. It may also be for you: doing the work you know is imperative but that is sometimes overwhelming, a tiny drop in a swirling ocean.
