Beschreibung

Petrified Forests explores the captivating transformation of entire forests into stone, delving into the geological processes behind petrification. This book examines how ancient trees become fossilized wood, offering unique insights into past ecosystems and climates.

 
The process involves organic material being replaced by minerals, often preserving intricate details, and provides invaluable data for researchers studying Earth's history and environmental changes.

 
The book highlights how silica-rich volcanic ash and groundwater contribute to this process, turning wood into stone through mineral replacement.

 
Petrified forests serve as archives of ancient life, allowing scientists to reconstruct past environmental conditions and study the biodiversity of ancient forests. By analyzing fossilized wood, researchers can gain insights into the long-term effects of climate change and other environmental shifts.

 
The book progresses from introducing the basic principles of petrification to examining specific petrified forests worldwide. Case studies emphasize the diversity of these formations and the range of information they provide, culminating in a discussion of the practical applications of petrified forest research.

 
This interdisciplinary approach integrates geology, paleontology, botany, and geochemistry, offering a holistic understanding of these geological wonders and their significance to Earth sciences.

Inclusive Transportation - A...

Veronica O. Davis, Tamika L. Butler

Transportation planners, engineers, and policymakers in the United States face the monumental task of righting the wrongs of their predecessors while charting the course for the next generation. This task requires empathy while pushing against forces in the industry that are resistant to change. How do you change a system that was never designed to be equitable? How do you change a system that continues to divide communities? 
 
 
 
In Inclusive Transportation, transportation expert Veronica O. Davis shines a light on the inequitable and often destructive practice of transportation planning and engineering. She calls for new thinking and more diverse leadership to create transportation networks that connect people to jobs, education, opportunities, and to each other. Inclusive Transportation is a vision for change and a new era of transportation planning. Davis explains why centering people in transportation decisions requires a great shift in how transportation planners and engineers are trained, how they communicate, the kind of data they collect, and how they work as professional teams. 
 
 
 
Davis aims to disrupt the status quo of the transportation industry. She urges transportation professionals to reflect on past injustices and elevate current practice to do the hard work that results in more than an idea and a catchphrase.
