Sinossi

Seasonal Biodiversity Boost investigates how seasonal changes drive biodiversity and ecosystem resilience. It reveals that seasonal variations, such as temperature and precipitation, act as key ecological drivers, triggering life-cycle events like plant flowering and animal migration. Understanding these mechanisms is vital for predicting ecosystem responses to environmental changes. The book synthesizes decades of ecological research, blending field studies with fundamental ecological principles.

 
The book emphasizes the importance of seasonal dynamics, demonstrating they are not just background noise but fundamental to ecosystem stability. For example, seasonal cues influence primary productivity and nutrient cycling. Examining plant communities, animal populations, and their interactions, the book highlights the practical applications of understanding seasonal sensitivities for conservation and resource management.

 
Progressing from core ecological concepts to specific impacts on ecosystems, the book offers insights valuable for students, researchers, and conservation practitioners. It bridges ecology with climatology, geography, and conservation biology, providing a comprehensive view of how seasonal changes, biodiversity, and ecosystem functions interact. This approach is crucial for addressing climate change and anthropogenic disturbances effectively.

Ripple - An Intimate Exchange of...

William Powers

Ripple: An Intimate Exchange of Urgency and Hope Between An Ecologist and His Daughter is a narrative of letters written by an ecologist dad to his daughter upon her coming-of-age. Drawing upon his personal history, family anecdotes, and shared memories, Powers envisions a path for humanity's reintegration with nature, and a chance to save the life force that runs through all of us. A story of separation has long gripped the human race: that people are separate—with more advanced habitats, technologies, and values—from our natural surroundings and fellow creatures. We have been told this story for generations. But as Powers watches his daughter approach adulthood, with all of society's expectations, he knows that the story we pass down has to change. In Ripple, he tells a different tale, one of community and family, inner wisdom, and shared existence within a living planet.

The Digital Mindset - What It...

Paul Leonardi, Tsedal Neeley

The pressure to "be digital" has never been greater. 
 
 
  
The digital revolution is here. It's changing how work gets done, how industries are structured, and how people from all walks of life work, behave and relate to each other. To thrive in a world driven by data and powered by algorithms, we must learn to see, think, and act in new ways. We need to develop a digital mindset. 
 
 
 
But what does that mean? Some fear it means that in the near future we will all need to become technologists who master the intricacies of coding, algorithms, AI, machine learning, robotics, and who knows what's next. 
 
  
 
This book introduces three approaches—Collaboration, Computation, Change—that you need for a digital mindset, and the perspectives and actions within each approach that will enable you to develop digital skills you need. With the digital mindset, you can ask the right questions, make smart decisions and appreciate new possibilities for a digital future. Leaders who adopt these approaches will be able to develop their organization's talent to prepare their company for successful and continued digital transformation. 
 
 
  
The surprising and welcome secret is that developing a digital mindset isn't as hard as we think. Most people can become digitally savvy if they follow the "30% rule," or the minimum threshold that gives us just enough digital literacy to understand and take advantage of the digital fabric woven into our world.

In Search of the Old Ones - An...

Anthony D. Fredericks

Ancient trees stand as sentinels against all odds while Earth and its people have changed around them. Award-winning author Anthony D. Fredericks examines their awe-inspiring longevity and evolutionary intelligence, drawing on expert interviews, scientific research, and a remarkable reverence for the environment.

Fredericks focuses on ten of the oldest trees in the United States, ranging from the 1,200-year-old Seven Sisters Oak, a Southern icon draped in Spanish moss that has survived several hurricanes, to the Palmer’s Oak in Southern California that has cloned itself for 13,000 years to stay alive. Other trees include bristlecone pines, regarded as some of the oldest trees in the world, the quaking aspen known as Pando with more than 45,000 identical branches, the Bennett Juniper that grows on land heavily glaciated by the last ice age, and sequoias, the world’s largest trees. Each tree profile opens with time travel stories that provide global historical context and explore the geography at the time when the tree took root.

In present day, Fredericks walks among many of the trees so that readers may too. His immersive perspective captures the trees’ grandeur and sage presence while exploring the science behind their resilience.

A tree that’s lived more than 1,000 years is living archaeology—a tangible connection between the planet’s past and present that helps us better understand its future. Fredericks investigates these extended lifespans and their implications on ecology and humanity. In Search of the Old Ones marvels at thecomplexity of roots, the determination of growth, and the wisdom of forests.

Beneath spreading canopies, readers will experience the strength and magnificence of the country’s most wondrous trees.
