Beschreibung

Ice Sheet Collapse addresses the critical issue of ice sheet stability and its profound impact on global sea levels, focusing particularly on the vulnerability of Antarctic ice to climate change. The book highlights how current climate models may underestimate the speed at which ice sheets are disintegrating, leading to potentially catastrophic sea-level rise. One intriguing fact is that ice sheet melt is not a gradual process. Instead, there can be abrupt shifts, with wide-ranging effects on coastal communities and global economies. The book emphasizes the complex interplay of factors, such as ocean warming and ice shelf thinning, contributing to this underestimation.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the fundamental principles of glaciology and climate science, before diving into the mechanics of ice sheet stability, the drivers of collapse, and potential consequences. Using data from satellite observations, field measurements, and climate model simulations, the book provides a holistic view of the ice sheet system. It also considers the significant role of ocean warming as a primary driver of ice shelf thinning and subsequent ice sheet instability. This comprehensive approach makes the book a valuable resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone seeking a better understanding of ice sheet dynamics, climate change, and environmental policy.

    In this 2024 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, Tedra Hamel tells us that keeping chickens in an urban setting has become increasingly popular in recent years. They not only produce eggs, they give us the delightful pleasure of their company. When feeling stressed and anxious just take a moment or two to pull up a chair outside a chicken coop and let these feathered friends entertain you, erase your anxiety, and connect you to nature. Chickens are full of surprises in their intelligence and emotional capacity, their gorgeous feathers and variety of colors, and their inquisitiveness. Chickens even dream, dance, and meet in circles. Flocks of chickens are even being used for emotional support in care facilities. They help us feel less lonely as we delight in observing their highly social behavior. Here we explore the therapeutic benefits of chickens in promotin emotional comfort, connecting us to nature, and adding fresh eggs to our diet.  
    Tedra Hamel (known as Teddi) is a critical care nurse in Washington state and a backyard chicken enthusiast. Through the inspiration of her feathered friends she has become an artist, and her hens have established some fame on Instagram. She is the author and artist illustrator of Therapy Chickens: Let the Wisdom of the Flock Bring You Joy (Quarto Publishing Group 2024)

    Pioneering whitewater explorer Wick Walker examines what lured a generation of incredibly daring pioneers into some of Earth's most wondrous yet forbidding river canyons: below Victoria Falls on the Zambezi; the Great Bend of the Tsangpo in Tibet; Tiger Leaping Gorge on the Yangtze; the flanks of Mount Everest; and more. 
     
     
     
    Loaded with great moments and personal stories, Wick details what these adventurers found there, and within themselves. The extraordinary characters, driven by different motives and visions, but united by their compulsion to seek the unknown and the pulse of free-flowing water, are as remarkable as the daunting geography and conditions they confront. 
     
     
     
    Whitewater sport today stands side-by-side with mountaineering in participation and public attention, yet it has lagged in generating its own literature. Torrents As Yet Unknown will help fill that gap for listeners interested in human drama played out against great natural challenges. 
     
     
     
    Mountaineering history is deep and its literature rich, but whitewater adventurers approach and experience the same forbidding terrain from a different vantage, between the walls of their canyons and atop powerful torrents of cascading water.

    A guided journey through the inner workings of Earth, the cloaked mysteries of other planets in our solar system, and beyond. 
     
     
     
    Earth, from space, looks like a shimmering gem suspended in an inky, infinite expanse. But this serene image masks the magnificent and volatile interior forces that make life possible for millions of species on the surface. The placid appearances of our neighboring planets similarly belie their powers—and science fiction-worthy features, like diamond rain. The daily machinations of Earth's deep interior make the planet a habitable, yet sometimes treacherous, place to live. Drill down thousands of miles through our built environments and soil, sand, water, rock, and minerals to the outer (mainly liquid iron with nickel) and inner core, encountering intense convection, roiling metals, hidden continents, and shifting tectonic plates. Discover the effects of magnetism, rotation, and seismic activity seen and sensed in the forms of auroras, hurricanes, volcanoes, and earthquakes, among other manifestations. 
     
     
     
    Join this exciting journey to far-flung interstellar locations and the center of the Earth to learn what lies beneath our feet, and why it's the best real estate in our solar system.
