Beschreibung

"Cloud Bursts" explores the science behind these intense, localized downpours, examining both the atmospheric conditions and geographical factors that contribute to their formation and devastating impacts. These events, often triggering flash floods in mountainous regions, occur when moisture-laden air rapidly ascends, such as through orographic lift, leading to concentrated rainfall. Understanding the interplay between weather patterns and topography is crucial for predicting and mitigating the risks associated with cloud bursts.

 
The book progresses systematically, starting with defining cloud bursts and differentiating them from normal rainfall, then delving into atmospheric processes, geographical influences, and case studies from various regions. A key insight is the need for effective early warning systems, utilizing tools like radar technology and hydrological models, alongside informed land-use planning.

 
The book uniquely synthesizes scientific research with practical applications, providing actionable information for policymakers and communities at risk. Ultimately, "Cloud Bursts" emphasizes that a comprehensive understanding of the meteorological and geographical dynamics is essential for developing mitigation strategies. By integrating insights from hydrology, geomorphology, and disaster management, the book offers a holistic view, empowering readers to make informed decisions and enhance resilience against these hazardous weather events.

    The Trouble with Gundogs takes a new look at the causes and cures for the many faults that can crop up in the process of training a Gundog. Dogs and humans have lived, worked and played together for thousands of years and strong bonds have formed between them. With luck and care, the training, management and handling of a Gundog will progress without a hitch. The luck begins with natural talent on both sides and the care ensures that correct choices are made and good sense prevails. However, things can still go wrong. This book offers solutions to the problems that may occur along the way. There are hundreds of different types of dog and each one has its own character. Because of this, one size does not fit all when tackling a problem, and different approaches are offered. Observation, determination and perseverance will usually be rewarded.

    This is the second of two travelogues published by Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876-1958).  Both deal with Glacier National Park, and this book also deals with the Cascade Mountains (The other is entitled Through Glacier Park).  Rinehart wrote hundreds of short stories, poems, travelogues and articles, though she is most famous for her mystery stories.  The region that became Glacier National Park was first inhabited by Native Americans and upon the arrival of European explorers, was dominated by the Blackfeet in the east and the Flathead in the western regions. - Summary by wikipedia and david wales

    A classic of travel writing, this book recounts Stevenson's adventures on an extended walk through uplands and mountains in south-western France. Humorous on his own failings as a traveller, and on his travails with Modestine the self-willed donkey, it is also an exploration of peasant life in an area marked by the violence of the wars of religion. This version includes the fragment "A mountain town in France", originally intended as the opening chapter, but often omitted and published as a separate essay. (Summary by Patrick Wallace)
