Beschreibung

Wave Cut explores the captivating world of wave-cut platforms, those intriguing coastal landforms that act as records of Earth's history. The book delves into the geological processes shaping these platforms, emphasizing the interplay between coastal erosion, sea-level changes, and the underlying geology. By studying these features, scientists gain insights into past sea levels and rates of coastal erosion, critical for understanding shoreline evolution. One intriguing aspect covered is how different rock types respond to wave action, influencing the platform's development.

 
The book begins by establishing a foundation in coastal geomorphology and wave dynamics, explaining how waves, armed with sediment, relentlessly erode coastlines. It then progresses through the key factors involved in platform formation, including wave action, sea-level fluctuations, and geological context.

 
Wave Cut differentiates itself by integrating field observations, laboratory experiments, and numerical modeling to provide a comprehensive understanding. The book's focus on wave-cut platforms offers valuable insights for coastal management and hazard assessment, providing a valuable resource for students, researchers, and policymakers alike.

Emergency Management

07

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
Emergency situations during a flight can vary in type and characteristics, including in-flight emergencies, ground emergencies, immediate emergencies, non-immediate emergencies or urgencies, among several other categories. The truth is that each aircraft may present a unique type of emergency, making it impossible to learn how to manage all possible emergencies in the aviation field. 
	However, it is possible to learn how to manage cockpit resources to control the emergency and minimize its effects. Cockpit resource management in an emergency not only refers to the various systems of the aircraft, but also to human resources (the pilots) and external resources (air traffic control, company operations, etc.). 
	In this work, you will learn the main theoretical concepts of emergencies in general, and how to manage the main emergencies of a small aircraft (Cessna 172), a mid-sized aircraft (Cessna 218 Grand Caravan), and a large aircraft such as the fabulous Airbus A320.

Right Down + Circle - Tony...

Cole Nowicki

An exuberant, incisive look at how Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater transformed a culture
		 
Going from a hobby toy for surfers to an Olympic sport, skateboarding has had a tumultuous history. Today, professional skateboarders land endorsement deals with Nike and Adidas, while popular television series like HBO’s Betty tell the stories of diverse crews of skaters living in New York City. So how did a fledgling subculture rise from its near-death knell in the ’90s to become ubiquitous today? It was simply a matter of finding the right messenger.
		 
In 1999, the bestselling video game Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater was released, and a new generation was exposed to skateboarding culture right in their very own homes. Kids and adults alike could now spend hours playing as actual skateboarders, learning the vernacular, listening to the music skateboarders loved, and having fun onscreen before trying to skate IRL in the driveway.
		 
Right, Down + Circle explores how a video game starring the most famous pro skater in the world brought skateboarding culture — and its ever-shifting markers of music, subversion, and coolness — to the masses and ultimately transformed the culture it borrowed from in the process.

Denver the (not so) Great

B. E. Baker

A compelling story of one family's determination to save their grumpy old horse against all odds. 
The Baker family bought Denver to be a family horse, and he took care of their children for several years as well as he could. So when, in a freak trailer accident, Denver injured himself badly, the family was upset. 
Denver's girl, Tessa, was devastated.  
Sadly, his injury was difficult to diagnose, and once they finally figured out what was wrong, it was so rare that it didn't really have an established treatment. The vets suggested the Bakers put him down, since he was old, and frankly, not so great. He hadn't been expnsive, and the experimental treatment they thought might save him was risky, long term, and expensive.  
The Baker family decided to take a gamble on their beloved horse anyway.  
The decision changed all their lives, and it blessed them in ways they never expected. Join Denver and Bridget as they tell the story from dual POVs. It will break your heart, but it will heal it again and then some.
