Synopsis

Dew and Mist explores the overlooked significance of atmospheric moisture, specifically dew and mist, in shaping ecosystems and influencing the global water cycle. It delves into how these phenomena, often regarded as minor meteorological events, play a crucial role in sustaining life, especially in water-scarce environments. Interestingly, dew and mist can contribute significantly to the water balance of certain ecosystems, sometimes providing more moisture than rainfall during dry periods, highlighting their importance for plant survival and overall biodiversity.

 
The book uniquely combines meteorological analysis with ecological studies, providing a comprehensive understanding of dew and mist formation, exploring the conditions conducive to their development, such as radiative cooling and condensation nuclei. It progresses from defining these phenomena and detailing their formation mechanisms to examining their ecological implications in diverse environments and their role in water resource management.

 
By presenting extensive data and analysis, the book emphasizes their importance, which is often underestimated in broader climate models, and connects these processes to fields such as ecology, agricultural science, and climatology.

I Have This Thing for Flowers -...

Alysia Li Ying Sawchyn

A story of love, marriage, and flowers from beloved writer and gardening enthusiast Alysia Li Ying Sawchyn  
Six months before her wedding, Alysia Li Ying Sawchyn’s fiancé broke off their engagement. Stunned, reeling, and newly uninsured, Alysia married her friend Sarah in an arrangement that secured them both free health insurance. They moved in together in the midst of the pandemic, and with time and while tending a garden, their marriage of convenience grew into a marriage of love.   
In science, art, and mythology, we cannot help but to see flowers as metaphors for the fleeting nature of youth, vitality, and love. It’s easy to casually admire something beautiful, but it takes a discerning eye to appreciate the effort that went into nourishing and tending to that beauty. In both gardening and relationships, one cannot expect to fill your garden with flowers if you are unwilling—or unable—to put in the work they need to thrive. In I Have This Thing For Flowers, Sawchyn does just that, likening the many flowers she has grown in her gardens to a range of relationships and moments of her life, reflecting on topics from motherhood to perfumery to scientific illustration.  
Cataloguing many of the great romances and loves of her life like an herbarium of flowers preserved from the garden, Sawchyn examines the kinds of love that can't be explained.
