Summary

Seafloor Mapping unveils the hidden landscapes of the Arctic and Antarctic seafloors, pivotal regions for understanding our planet's climate and geological history. It explores how advanced technologies like sonar and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are overcoming extreme challenges to map these remote areas. Discoveries of unique geological features such as submarine canyons and glacial landforms are reshaping our understanding of past ice sheet activity and its impact on current oceanographic models. These maps aren't just pictures; they are crucial for predicting sea-level rise and assessing the effects of human activities on vulnerable marine ecosystems.

 
The book progresses by first introducing core seafloor mapping concepts before detailing specific techniques used in polar regions. It then explores the unique geological features discovered and the impact of mapping data on oceanography and climate science. The text highlights the importance of accurate seafloor maps for safe navigation and resource management.

 
The comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of polar seafloor mapping makes this book uniquely valuable for students, researchers, and policymakers interested in oceanography, polar science, and the effects of climate change.

    The second in an uproarious, sardonic and incisive look through English history. In this volume, we discover the actions of the Normans and King Richard, giving clear reasons why we history should hold them in nothing but contempt. It also covers the signing of the Magna Carta, the first bill of rights in England, which came about because a powerless king tried to go to war, realised that he had no-one behind him, and was bullied into signing in order to not simply be executed. 
    Covers: 
    William The Conqueror, and the thugs and mercenaries who bought titles and became England's gentry. 
    William Rufus, and his utterly ridiculous death. 
    Henry The First, Surnamed Beauclerc, his conquest of Normandy, and death from a finger wound. 
    Stephen. 
    Henry The Second, Surnamed Plantagenet, and his constant battles with both the church and his own family. 
    Richard The First, Surnamed Cour De Lion, and how truly awful he was in every respect. 
    John, Surnamed Sansterre, Or Lackland, and how tried to lead an army that deserted him and was forced into signing the Magna Carta.

    Learn more about the history of those countries. The topics addressed will be the following: 
    The Khmer Empire--Historians describe Cambodia as the Khmer State or the Angkorian Empire (Khmer:) from the 9th century to the 15th century, when it was a Hindu/Buddhist empire in Southeast Asia. The empire, which developed from the old societies of Funan and Chenla, governed and/or "vassalized" the majority of mainland Southeast Asia and parts of Southern China, covering from the suggestion of the Indochinese Peninsula northward to modern-day Yunnan province in China, and from Vietnam westward to Myanmar. The Khmer Empire was greater at its peak than the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman Empire) that existed at the exact same period. 
    The Siamese-- Siam was just a much different name for what's now referred to as Thailand. The Siamese are the people who live there, though they're never ever called as such any longer. 
    Thailand is a fascinating country, with its own culinary arts, culture, history, royalty, infrastructure, and influence on the world. To learn more about these “Thai” people before they were called Thai, when they were Siamese, is to learn about those people’s roots.
