Beschreibung

Ice Shelf explores the critical role of these vast, floating ice platforms in our planet's climate system. These extensions of glaciers, found predominantly in Antarctica and Greenland, act as crucial buttresses, slowing the flow of land-based ice into the ocean. While their disintegration doesn't directly raise sea levels, their loss accelerates the discharge of grounded ice, significantly contributing to sea level rise. The book delves into processes such as basal melting and iceberg calving, fundamental to understanding ice shelf dynamics.

 
The book traces the evolution of our understanding of ice shelves, from early explorations to the sophisticated satellite observations of today. It emphasizes the social and economic implications of ice shelf loss, particularly for vulnerable coastal communities. Using diverse data sources, it examines changes in ice shelf extent and thickness, connecting glaciology, oceanography, and climatology. Ice Shelf presents a comprehensive yet accessible overview.

 
The book progresses logically, first introducing the fundamental properties of ice and ocean interactions. It then analyzes the processes controlling ice shelf mass balance, dedicating chapters to basal melting, surface melting, and iceberg calving. Finally, it discusses observed changes in Antarctica and Greenland and their implications for global sea level rise, providing a holistic view of these Earth Science giants.

    A diagnosis of bipolar disorder can be scary... but it also opens up an opportunity for growth and stability. Ready to find the answers? 
    Around one in every 100 people is diagnosed with bipolar disorder at some point in their lives… but if you’re one of them, it probably feels more isolating than that. 
    Despite the rising awareness of mental health challenges, it’s a condition still shrouded in misunderstanding, and while you’re caught up in the extreme highs and lows it presents, it’s difficult to understand it yourself, let alone help anyone else to understand it. 
    A diagnosis can bring a sense of relief—an explanation to help you finally make sense of what’s been happening with you… but it can also be scary. 
    Mariah Carey, who’s spoken outwardly about her experience with bipolar disorder, said that she “didn’t want to believe” it when she was given her diagnosis… and perhaps that’s a feeling you can relate to. 
    It can make you feel terribly alone, especially when you don’t understand all the nuances of bipolar disorder or how to manage it well… But this is where your diagnosis is a blessing. 
    Now that you know you have it, you can dive beneath the hood and implement techniques that you didn’t know to try before now. 
    But when there’s so much to know, where do you start? 
    Right here. 
    Written by an author whose diagnosis marked a positive turning point, this empathetic and holistic approach to understanding and managing bipolar disorder will show you exactly what you need to know. 
    Whether you’re living with the condition yourself or you’re caring for someone who is, your journey toward understanding starts here. 
    You might think a diagnosis is the end of your journey… It all makes sense now, after all. 
    But this is just the start of your path—because with a deeper understanding and a wealth of strategies you can turn to at any time, you can completely transform your daily experience.

    Today, the Catholic Church understands science and religion as having a mutual and complementary relationship. Now, you can explore how the two work together in this program.  Since Pius XII wrote the papal encyclical Humani Generis in 1950, scientific discovery has been a topic of lively discussion in the Church. In The Intersection of Science and Theology, you will explore the place of science in the Christian tradition. Using the writings of Jesuit priest and scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin as a basis, these lectures look at God’s two greatest gifts to humans: the Bible and nature.  You will begin by looking at how early Christian apologists, like Tertullian and Irenaeus, tackled questions about science. You will then move through history, looking at debates about faith and reason throughout the centuries. Along the way, you will encounter Isaac Newton, the Enlightenment, Cardinal John Henry Newman, and the controversy caused by Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species.  As you move into the twentieth century, you will explore the scientific and religious writings of Teilhard, as well as the thought of contemporary scientists. You will look at how these scientists derived from their research a sense of wonder and reverence for creation. In our modern world, biblical creation and the theory of evolution are often seen as contradictory. As you will come to understand, however, creation and evolution actually work together.  Understanding science is essential for truly grasping religion. Embark on this exploration today.This course is part of the Learn25 collection and includes a free PDF study guide.

    Americans are loud. Amsterdam equals sex, drugs, and rock & roll. Mexicans are lazy and Germans are boring, but punctual. Paris is romantic, Wuhan infectious, Ukrainians heroic, and New Zealand untouched.  
    This is the way people around the world think about cities, regions and countries and the communities that live there; through cliches and stereotypes. It can be frustrating and hindering trade, diplomacy, investment, tourism, or talent attraction. Many believe that such image problems can be resolved with advertising campaigns, but the classic tourism promotion model is broken and insufficient. This book explains what works and what doesn’t when it comes to improving the reputation of cities, regions, and countries. It does so without the use of jargon and with reference to numerous case-studies. The book primarily aims to inspire readers and offer them a broad overview of an issue in modern society that is of interest and relevance to all of us: the reputation of our communities.
