Sinopsis

Turtles Return Home explores the fascinating science behind sea turtle navigation, revealing how these creatures traverse vast oceans to return to their natal beaches. Utilizing satellite tracking and biological research, the book uncovers the complex interplay of biological and environmental factors guiding their journeys. One intriguing insight is how turtles may use the Earth's magnetic field as a compass, a sense fine-tuned over generations. The book emphasizes that understanding turtle migration is crucial for effective conservation, allowing us to protect critical habitats and migratory corridors.

 
The book progresses by first introducing sea turtle biology and then delving into their sensory world, focusing on magnetic, olfactory, and visual cues. It then analyzes tracking data to understand long-distance migration and homing behavior. A unique aspect of the book is its analysis of large-scale satellite tracking data collected over decades. It connects marine biology with ecology and oceanography, providing a holistic view.

 
Ultimately, Turtles Return Home argues that sea turtle navigation is a multi-sensory process that requires a comprehensive approach for conservation. It highlights how factors like climate change and habitat degradation disrupt natural cues, impacting their ability to navigate. By bridging scientific rigor with accessible language, the book appeals to students, researchers, and anyone interested in marine life and environmental science.

Undammed - Freeing Rivers and...

Tara Lohan

Free-flowing rivers in the United States are an endangered species. With more than 500,000 dams in place, we've dammed and diverted almost every major river, straightening curves and blocking passage for fish and other aquatic animals, pushing many to the brink. Now a heartening new movement is helping to demolish harmful or obsolete structures and restore new life to rivers and the communities that depend on them. In doing so, it offers a pathway to undoing environmental harm to nature—and to ourselves.In Undammed, environmental journalist Tara Lohan takes a clear-eyed look at the unexpected benefits of dam removal after centuries of dam-building. In helping to restore rivers, she argues, we're protecting our own communities by improving water quality, enhancing public safety, and boosting fish populations that feed people and restore rights for Native American Tribes. In Europe, where river barriers occur almost every half-mile, the US movement is spurring a rival effort to restore natural flow to rivers degraded by obstructions.Undammed is an inspirational look at our changing relationship with the natural world, showing the cascade of benefits that come when we no longer turn our backs on rivers. And in helping to restore rivers, we're helping ourselves.
