Sinopsis

Ocean Currents explores the vital role of ocean circulation in shaping our planet's climate, weather patterns, and marine ecosystems. It reveals how these massive water movements act as active agents, influencing everything from regional temperatures to the distribution of marine life. The book delves into the interconnectedness of Earth's systems, demonstrating how oceanography, climate science, and geography converge to explain phenomena like the Gulf Stream's impact on European climate or the nutrient-rich upwelling zones that support thriving marine ecosystems.

 
The book begins by explaining the fundamental forces driving ocean currents, such as wind, temperature, and salinity. It then examines specific current systems like the Humboldt Current and the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, detailing their unique characteristics and regional impacts.

 
Finally, Ocean Currents analyzes the role of these currents in the global climate system, including their influence on heat distribution and sea-level rise. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding ocean currents for predicting weather phenomena, managing marine resources, and mitigating the impacts of climate change, offering a holistic view accessible to a broad audience.

    More and more textile artists are using natural processes in their work, from dyeing with rust to working with found and scavenged items, and this book is the first to bring these increasingly popular techniques together. It promotes a way of working creatively with what is close at hand, whether gathered on walks by the seashore or collected in your garden, and working in tune with natural processes, bringing the rhythms and unpredictability of nature into your work.
    Examples of this type of working include rust dyeing embroidered fabric to give it a natural patina, dyeing with garden fruits or seaweed, weaving with pieces of beachcombed fibre and printing with found objects. In all of this work nature is directly harnessed to make its mark.
    The book is illustrated with the finest examples of contemporary embroidery and textile-art work using nature, by artists whose practice is tied up with their experience of and respect for the natural environment, often capturing a very strong sense of place and a feeling of calmness and contemplation.

    Creep, was an ugly cat! He was big, black, and scraggly looking: a homely lanky feline, whose only redeeming quality was his stupid pranks. Which always backfired, and the comic result would give the family a good laugh, much to that sneaker’s chagrin. This first adventure for Creep, finds him in a cozy home, living with a family of three. And there was another cat: a cute little kitten, that the sly black cat despised in the household, precisely because she was adorable, and Creep…was not.
