Sinopsis

Climate Change and Oceans explores the largely unexamined impacts of global warming on deep-sea currents and ecosystems, highlighting the critical role these systems play in regulating the Earth's climate. The book uniquely focuses on the deep ocean, an area often overlooked in climate change discussions, despite its importance in global heat distribution, nutrient cycling, and carbon sequestration. It reveals how seemingly stable deep-sea environments are increasingly vulnerable, potentially leading to significant alterations with far-reaching consequences.

The book begins by establishing the scientific context, explaining oceanographic principles like thermohaline circulation and deep-water formation, before examining evidence of climate-driven changes. It addresses slowing circulation rates, temperature and salinity shifts, and ocean acidification.

Did you know that deep-sea ecosystems harbor unique biodiversity, including cold-water coral reefs and hydrothermal vent communities? The book synthesizes data from research vessels, satellites, and climate models to present an up-to-date assessment of the threats to these deep-sea realms.

Structured in three parts, Climate Change and Oceans progresses from fundamental concepts to evidence of change and finally, impacts on ecosystems. It connects Earth sciences geography with marine biology and climate modeling to provide a holistic understanding.

The book offers a comprehensive look at the science, exploring potential mitigation and adaptation strategies, making it valuable to students, researchers, and anyone concerned about the future of our oceans.

The Report on Unidentified...

Edward J. Ruppelt

'Straight from the horse's mouth', as they say. Edward Ruppelt was the first head of the U.S. Air Force's Project Blue Book, the official project initiated to investigate UFO reports beginning in 1952. This report from 1956 takes us inside these initial investigations, separates fact from fiction, and gives insight into who, when, where, and how sightings were reported and researched in open-minded fashion (for which Ruppelt was renowned), rather than in the typical hushed and secretive (and censored) manner most often associated with government and military reports which are released to the public.Dozens of specific sightings are recounted, although hundreds more had come pouring into the agency during the period covered (and hundreds, if not thousands more that were never officially reported). Here we go inside the workings of Project Blue Book, which had evolved from 2 earlier Air Force projects, and we are witness to interviews, press conferences, Pentagon briefings, and many reports from civilian and military pilots, Air Traffic Controllers, office workers, farmers, and the man on the street who reported their accounts with UFOs. And not all sightings that were reported were restricted to the U.S.Although Project Blue Book would continue until 1969, here we witness an in-depth account from it's inception and it's earliest stages, the political obstacles, the houndings from the press, the overall confusion encountered during and following many of the sightings, and the near hysteria caused during the heyday of UFO sightings, and all from the man who headed up the project in it's earliest years. The second edition of Ruppelt's work was supplemented with 3 additional chapters which were added in 1960, and we are fortunate that they are included here. (Summary by Roger Melin)

Where Beau the Beach Bunny Burrows

Lolisa Marie Monroe

Beau watches rockets soar, crabs scuttle, and stars shimmer—and wonders if he will ever be enough. He digs deep, not knowing that each paw-full of sand, each quiet kindness, is shaping the Space Coast shore in ways no one else can. 
 
Where Beau the Beach Bunny Burrows is a story of longing, listening, and helping others. A bunny’s journey of learning that he is enough, just the way he is. It’s for every child who watches the world and wonders where they fit in, and for grown-ups, like me, who may remember that feeling. Let me tell you a secret- 
“You are enough, ten times more than you know!”
