Sinopsis

Antarctic Volcanoes unveils the surprising world of volcanism beneath the Antarctic ice sheets. It explores how these subglacial volcanoes influence glacial dynamics, impact sea-level rise, and provide valuable insights into Earth’s geological processes. These hidden volcanoes actively release heat and meltwater, affecting the behavior of the overlying ice, which is crucial for predicting future sea-level changes. Using accessible language, this book traces the history of Antarctic exploration and the modern technologies that have revolutionized our ability to detect and monitor these geological features.

The book emphasizes the West Antarctic Rift System and Marie Byrd Land, detailing the types of volcanoes, their eruptive history, and current activity levels. It examines the interactions between volcanoes and ice sheets, such as subglacial meltwater lakes and icequakes, to understand the broader implications for Earth’s climate system. This study combines Earth sciences, glaciology, and climatology, revealing how volcanic activity impacts glacial dynamics, influencing global climate patterns and sea levels.

Through geophysical surveys, geochemical analyses, and modeling studies, the book presents a comprehensive view of Antarctic volcanism. Starting with the geological setting of Antarctica and the fundamentals of volcanism, the book progresses to specific volcanic regions and ultimately assesses the broader implications for our planet's climate. This approach makes complex topics understandable for those interested in Earth sciences, geography, climate change, and the polar regions.

Compassion for Couples -...

Michelle Becker, Christopher Germer

How resilient is your relationship? Do you and your partner go into "reactivity mode" when a conflict arises? Do you wish you were closer and more connected?

The Last Wilderness

Murray Morgan, Tim McNulty

Murray Morgan's classic history of the Olympic Peninsula, originally published in 1955, evokes a remote American wilderness "as large as the state of Massachusetts, more rugged than the Rockies, its lowlands blanketed by a cool jungle of fir and pine and cedar, its peaks bearing hundreds of miles of living ice that gave rise to swift rivers alive with giant salmon." 
 
 
 
Drawing on historical research and personal tales collected from docks, forest trails, and waterways, Morgan recounts vivid adventures of the area's settlers—loggers, hunters, prospectors, homesteaders, utopianists, murderers, profit-seekers, conservationists, Wobblies, and bureaucrats—alongside stories of coastal first peoples and striking descriptions of the peninsula's wildlife and land. 
 
 
 
Freshly redesigned and with a new introduction by poet and environmentalist Tim McNulty, this humor-filled saga and landmark love story of one of the most formidably beautiful regions of the Pacific Northwest will inform and engage a new generation of listeners.

And yet in recent years some key countries have been quietly and very successfully addressing water stress.How are Singapore and Israel, for example – both severely water-stressed countries – not in the same predicament as Chennai or California?In The Last Drop, award-winning environmental journalist Tim Smedley meets experts, victims, activists and pioneers to find out how we can mend the water table that our survival depends upon. He offers a fascinating, universally relevant account of the environmental and human factors that have led us to this point, and suggests practical ways to address the crisis, before it’s too late.'You will never see the water you use in the same way again' – Helen Czerski, BBC broadcaster
