Book Description
Eight international conferences on permafrost have been held starting in 1963: in the USA (1963 and 1983), the Soviet Union (1973), Canada (1978 and 1998), Norway (1988), China (1993) and Switzerland (2003). The Ninth International Conference on Permafrost (June 29- July 3, 2008) marks the 25th anniversaries of the 1983 conference and the formation of the International Permafrost Association, both events having taken place at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks, Alaska. Over a 40-year span (1963-2003), approximately 2500 individuals from 36 countries participated in the eight conferences. This compendium includes approximately 1950 papers from all nine conferences. Approximately 300 extended abstracts from the Eight and Ninth conferences are included.

The Global Cryosphere
Author: Roger G. Barry
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108806708
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 624
Book Description
Recent studies indicate that - due to climate change - the Earth is undergoing rapid changes in all cryospheric components, including polar sea ice shrinkage, mountain glacier recession, thawing permafrost, and diminishing snow cover. This book provides a comprehensive summary of all components of the Earth's cryosphere, reviewing their history, physical and chemical characteristics, geographical distributions, and projected future states. This new edition has been completely updated throughout, and provides state-of-the-art data from GlobSnow-2 CRYOSAT, ICESAT, and GRACE. It includes a comprehensive summary of cryospheric changes in land ice, permafrost, freshwater ice, sea ice, and ice sheets. It discusses the models developed to understand cryosphere processes and predict future changes, including those based on remote sensing, field campaigns, and long-term ground observations. Boasting an extensive bibliography, over 120 figures, and end-of-chapter review questions, it is an ideal resource for students and researchers of the cryosphere.
