Sinopse

Spring Formation explores the fascinating world of natural springs, vital sources of fresh water that support diverse ecosystems. The book delves into their geological origins, revealing how groundwater moves through permeable rocks and emerges as springs. Interestingly, the unique water chemistry of springs significantly influences the aquatic life they support. This book provides insights into different types of springs, classified by their geological setting, flow rate, and water chemistry, as well as the ecological role of springs in maintaining biodiversity.

 
The book adopts a systemic approach, progressing from basic hydrogeology principles to advanced understanding of spring classifications and ecological importance. It highlights the increasing threats to these fragile resources due to human impact. Real-world case studies and original research are presented in an accessible manner, making it suitable for both students and general readers.

 
Ultimately, the book aims to educate and inspire readers to appreciate the value of springs and advocate for their protection amidst increasing water scarcity and environmental degradation.

Biomimetics - How Lessons From...

Brian Clegg

An exploration of the transformative ways in which nature has inspired the technological advancement of humankind. 
 
Biomimetics literally means emulating biology - and in a broader sense the term covers technological advances where the original inspiration came from nature. The Earth is a vast laboratory where the mechanisms of natural selection have enabled evolutionary solutions to be developed to a wide range of problems. 
 
Science writer Brian Clegg looks at how humans have piggybacked on natural experimentation, redeploying a solution to create things that make our lives easier. He looks at how the hooks on burdock seeds inspired the creation of Velcro, how the stickiness of the feet of geckos and frogs has been used to create gripping surfaces, such as tyre treads, and how even the most basic optical enhancement in the form of spectacles is itself a form of biomimetics.

Michael Mascarenhas

The tireless resistance of local communities fighting for ownership of America's third largest water system 
 
 
  
Toxic Water, Toxic System exposes the consequences of a seemingly anonymous authoritarian state willing to maintain white supremacy at any cost—including poisoning an entire city and shutting off water to thousands of people. Weaving together narratives of frontline activists along with archival data, Michael Mascarenhas provides a powerful exploration of the political alliances and bureaucratic mechanisms that uphold inequality. 
 
 
  
Drawing from three years of ethnographic fieldwork in Flint and Detroit, this book amplifies the voices of marginalized communities, particularly African American women, whose perspectives and labor have been consistently overlooked.
