Deep Sea Currents

Sinopse

Deep Sea Currents reveals the hidden world of underwater rivers and their profound influence on our planet. These deep sea currents are crucial for redistributing heat, shaping global climate patterns, and sustaining marine ecosystems through nutrient cycling. For instance, the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) acts as a global conveyor belt, influencing temperatures across continents. Understanding these ocean dynamics is now more critical than ever, given the accelerating pace of climate change and its potential impact on these delicate systems. The book explores the fundamental principles driving deep sea currents, like density differences and the Earth's rotation, and then examines major currents such as the Antarctic Bottom Water. It investigates how these currents affect marine life by dispersing plankton and shaping habitats. Critically, the book connects alterations in ocean temperature and salinity due to climate change to the strength and stability of these currents, providing a comprehensive and accessible view of this complex earth science.

Technology vs Truth - Deception...

Scientific American

In the digital age, information, both true and false, spreads faster than ever. The same technology that provides access to data across the globe can abet the warping of truth and normalization of lies. In this audiobook, we examine the intersection of truth, untruth, and technology, including how social media manipulates behavior, technologies such as deepfakes that spread misinformation, the bias inherent in algorithms, and more.

Drift Into Failure - From...

Sidney Dekker

What does the collapse of sub-prime lending have in common with a broken jackscrew in an airliner’s tailplane? Or the oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico with the burn-up of Space Shuttle Columbia? These were systems that drifted into failure. While pursuing success in a dynamic, complex environment with limited resources and multiple goal conflicts, a succession of small, everyday decisions eventually produced breakdowns on a massive scale. We have trouble grasping the complexity and normality that gives rise to such large events. We hunt for broken parts, fixable properties, people we can hold accountable. Our analyses of complex system breakdowns remain depressingly linear, depressingly componential - imprisoned in the space of ideas once defined by Newton and Descartes. The growth of complexity in society has outpaced our understanding of how complex systems work and fail. Our technologies have gotten ahead of our theories. We are able to build things - deep-sea oil rigs, jackscrews, collateralized debt obligations - whose properties we understand in isolation. But in competitive, regulated societies, their connections proliferate, their interactions and interdependencies multiply, their complexities mushroom. This book explores complexity theory and systems thinking to understand better how complex systems drift into failure. It studies sensitive dependence on initial conditions, unruly technology, tipping points, diversity - and finds that failure emerges opportunistically, non-randomly, from the very webs of relationships that breed success and that are supposed to protect organizations from disaster. It develops a vocabulary that allows us to harness complexity and find new ways of managing drift.

The Power is in Webinars

Webinars have become one of the most popular ways to promote a business in the past few years.

They are so effective because they provide an impassiveness that other forums of media do not and attendees get real-time information delivered straight to them, not to mention the interactivity of question-and-answer sessions.

According to the Adobe Software blog, webinars rank in the top three of the content delivery methods out there.

How Do You Get Started?
In order to use a webinar to promote your business, you are going to need to know the secrets to a successful webinar.
With so much information out there, where do you even begin?

It's overwhelming, I know!

You could use the old "trial and error" method and fail.

You could waste hours of your time sifting through websites and videos and end up even worse than when you began.
