Beschreibung

Largest Icebergs explores the formation, drifting patterns, and environmental impacts of colossal icebergs, emphasizing their connection to global warming and climate change. These icy giants, some the size of small countries, significantly influence ocean systems and sea level rise as they melt, releasing freshwater that disrupts salinity balances. The book uniquely focuses on these singular events, highlighting their disproportionate impact compared to general ice sheet melt, differentiating itself from broader studies in glaciology and oceanography. The book uncovers how ocean currents, wind patterns, and the Coriolis effect dictate iceberg movement, often carrying them far from Antarctica into crucial shipping lanes. Using satellite imagery and oceanographic models, scientists track these behemoths, providing insights into Earth's interconnected systems.

 
Progressing through three sections, the book first covers iceberg formation and tracking, then analyzes case studies of the largest icebergs, and finally examines their environmental implications in a warming climate. Drawing from satellite imagery, climate models, and field research, Largest Icebergs integrates glaciology, oceanography, climatology, and geography to present an evidence-based account. This approach makes it valuable for geographers, earth scientists, policymakers, and anyone keen on understanding the effects of climate change, offering knowledge applicable to refining sea level rise predictions and informing climate mitigation strategies.

The Human Place in Nature -...

John Schooneveldt

This book explores a new approach to understanding the evolution of mind and consciousness by examining the perceptual abilities of animals and the way they experience their world. It offers a science-based, bottom-up approach to our own conscious worldview by seeing it through the eyes of others. Human ecologist John Schooneveldt emphasizes the role of context in evolution and the way animals internalize and engage with the contextual properties of their world that are meaningful for them. The core argument is that a context, which is subjective and comprised of the perceptual capacities, offers new insights into the evolution of mind. Rather than seeing biological evolution in terms of the emergence of mindless forms and cultural evolution as the emergence of disembodied minds, the book seeks to integrate these two perspectives through the rigorous mapping of contexts. 
 
This book: reveals an understanding of animal minds; formulates a hypothesis for the evolution of consciousness; includes a discussion of the origin of technological innovation; provides a rationale for the ecology of mind; proposes a theory of the evolution of language; outlines the science of experience and how it influences choice; and explains the role of context and choice with respect, especially to human ecology.

Dispersals - On Plants Borders...

Jessica J. Lee

A prize-winning memoirist and nature writer turns to the lives of plants entangled in our human world to explore belonging, displacement, identity, and the truths of our shared future 
 
 
 
A seed slips beyond a garden wall. A tree is planted on a precarious border. A shrub is stolen from its culture and its land. What happens when these plants leave their original homes and put down roots elsewhere? 
 
 
 
In fourteen essays, Dispersals explores the entanglements of the plant and human worlds: from species considered invasive, like giant hogweed; to those vilified but intimate, like soy; and those like kelp, on which our futures depend. Each of the plants considered in this collection are somehow perceived as being "out of place"—weeds, samples collected through imperial science, crops introduced and transformed by our hand. Combining memoir, history, and scientific research in poetic prose, Jessica J. Lee meditates on the question of how both plants and people come to belong, why both cross borders, and how our futures are more entwined than we might imagine.
