Book Description
This volume presents a unique set of time series data concerning the environmental and biological dynamics of a pristine alpine-boreal river system in Norway. A simultaneous collection of data on climate, hydrology, erosion, water chemistry, primary production, invertebrates and fish provides an unusual insight into the ecology of a watercourse characteristic of this region of north-western Europe. Individual papers present data collected over 14 years, which provides an opportunity to understand the natural dynamics in a system with very little direct influence from human activities. The results indicate a level of variation that should be expected in natural systems, and provides a solid basis for a discussion of the best approach to the monitoring of biological diversity and environmental factors in rivers and lakes. The volume is aimed at researchers working with watershed management and aquatic sciences. It provides useful information and experiences of particular relevance to the implementation of the EU Frame Directive for Water.

The Lost Kingdom of Anian Regnum: The Mystery of Ancient British Columbia, Canada

Pages : 39
Book Description
The Lost Kingdom of Anian Regnum: The Mystery of Ancient British Columbia, Canada An Alternative History Article on the History of British Columbia, Canada There is a mystery about British Columbia, Canada- a historical mystery that is just as significant as any other historical mystery in our past. No one remembers the story of Ancient British Columbia, and we are not taught about it in school. Not so long ago, ‘Anian Regnum’ was inscribed on all the oldest maps, searched for by the Explorers of Old, believed by those who came after, and spoken of in written history by respected Historians. This unknown place of Anian Regnum was shown to be established within the mountains of British Columbia before it was British Columbia- but it is now forgotten in time and disregarded as myth. Could it be possible that ‘Anian Regnum’ did exists, and might we begin to assemble the fragmented annals of our written history to find the Lost Kingdom.

Rivers of the World
Author: James Penn
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1576075796
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
Rivers of the World, vividly written and meticulously researched, is a rich and thorough treatment of some 200 of the world's rivers. In this comprehensive treatment of the major rivers of the world, author James R. Penn's purpose is not just to feature geographic data, but to tell a story of historical drama, poetic significance, and cultural relationships. The book shows glimpses of Chairman Mao boosting his image by swimming in the Yangtze; Indian middlemen residing on both sides of the Columbia River exacting tolls from travelers like Lewis and Clark; and, near the Dordogne in southwest France, Paleolithic cave art, paintings, and designs in rock shelters and subterranean caverns, which are textbook examples of early human creativity and artistic impulse. In nearly 200 entries ranging from a few paragraphs to several pages, Rivers of the World covers all of the great rivers of the world including the Nile, Niger, Amazon, and Mississippi, as well as smaller waterways that illustrate important themes or represent trends. The book includes bibliographies for each river.
