Book Description
Some believe that love is timeless, but the breadth of life is equally immeasurable, and love is merely one of its many facets, if its most important one. When John Adams and his native guide, Calo, stumble upon the greatest archaeological and anthropological find the world has ever known in the Great Gobi Desert, the anthropologist—along with Katrina Maybridge, the most beautiful archaeologist in all of Asia—is transported back in time some 45,000 years to the long dead ancient Kingdom of Umphar along the Great River Lis. There they not only have the adventure of a lifetime in their quest to finalize a peace treaty with the disingenuous ruler of the Kingdom of Mar-yar, but they also discover what they truly mean to one another.

Book Description
The U.S. Ocean Commission Report identified the need for regional ecosystem assessments to support coastal and ocean management. These assessments must provide greater understanding of physical and biological dynamics than assessments at global and national scales can provide but transcend state and local interests. This need and timeliness is apparent for Long Island Sound, where a multi-state regional restoration program is underway for America’s most urbanized estuary. Synthesis of the Long Island Sound ecosystem is needed to integrate knowledge across disciplines and provide insight into understanding and managing pressing issues, such as non-point sources of pollution, coastal development, global climatic change, and invasive species. Currently, there is a need for a comprehensive volume that summarizes the ecological and environmental dynamics and status of Long Island Sound and its myriad ecosystems. It has been 30 years since a comprehensive summary of Long Island Sound was prepared and 50 years since the pioneering work of Gordon Riley. Major advances in estuarine science are providing new insights into these systems, and yet, the condition of many estuaries is in decline in the face of continuing coastal development. There is an opportunity to lay a foundation for integrative coastal observing systems that truly provide the foundation for improved decision-making. This book will provide a key reference of our scientific understanding for work performed over the past three decades and guide future research and monitoring in a dynamic urbanized estuary.
