Beschreibung

Gulf Formation explores the fascinating Earth science behind the creation of gulfs, detailing how tectonic activity and water erosion work together to sculpt these vital coastal environments and marine habitats. The book emphasizes that gulf formation is a complex process, where the slow movements of Earth's crust set the stage for the relentless sculpting action of waves, currents, and rivers. Understanding this interplay is crucial for appreciating the biodiversity within gulf ecosystems and for effective coastal management. The book uniquely combines geological data with ecological and oceanographic analyses, offering a holistic view. It examines major geological events like faulting and subsidence, alongside mechanical and chemical erosion processes. Using geological surveys and remote sensing, the book supports its claims and reconstructs geological histories from sediment core samples. Gulf Formation progresses from fundamental concepts to case studies of prominent gulfs worldwide, culminating in a discussion of practical implications for coastal management and conservation.

In this incredible audiobook, we invite you to learn about the different methods of extraction and analysis of the main cannabinoids for the use of derivatives in the cannabis industry. 
Currently, about 113 compounds have been isolated from the Cannabis sativa species, among the most important are tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). These phytocannabinoids are mostly present in the form of carboxylic acids and are located in the trichomes of this plant. 
To identify and characterize the chemical molecules present in cannabis, it is important to know how to select the most appropriate extraction method. This technique depends on parameters such as temperature, agitation speed, process time, particle size, and distribution to achieve the concentration of the different cannabinoids. Likewise, it is necessary to implement an analytical system for the determination of cannabinoids, thus increasing the reliability of the efficacy of the formulated products, whether for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, gastronomic, or textile industry.  
If you are interested in learning more about the latest techniques for the extraction and analysis of phytocannabinoids, we invite you to listen to this audiobook brought to you by Pharmacology University.

Otter Country - An Unexpected...

Miriam Darlington

A plan formed in my mind. I would explore the places in this land that hid my grail. I would spend a whole year or longer, if that's what it took, wading through marshes, hiding between mossy rocks, paddling down rivers, and swimming in sea lochs; recording my journey through the seasons as I searched for wild otters. 
 
 
 
Mysterious, graceful, and ever-clever, otters have captivated our imaginations, despite the fact that few people have encountered one in the wild. In Otter Country, celebrated nature writer Miriam Darlington captures the fascination she's had for these playful animals since childhood, and chronicles her immersive journey into their watery world. 
 
 
 
Over the course of a single year, Darlington takes listeners on a winding expedition in pursuit of these elusive creatures—from her home in Devon, England, and through the wilds of Scotland, Wales, the Lake District, and the countryside of Cornwall. As she's drawn deeper into wilder habitats, trekking through changing landscapes, seasons, and weather, Darlington meets biologists, conservationists, fishing and hunting enthusiasts, and poets—enriching her understanding, admiration, and awe of the wild otter. With each encounter, she reveals the scientific, environmental, and cultural importance of this creature and the places it calls home.
