Author: H. E. Wright
Publisher: U of Minnesota Press
ISBN: 9781452903040
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 646
Book Description
Traces the evolution of the global climate since the last period of glacial maximum approximately 18,000 years ago. Examines how changes in climate have transformed Earth's biomes in this period and how this change has influenced the evolution of life.

CO2 Transport and Transformation in the Ocean

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Bibliographical literature
Languages : en
Pages : 26
Book Description
"The role of C02 and the cycling of carbon through the earth's oceans and atmosphere have been focal points in the discussion of the effect of humanity on the earth. The sources, sinks, and cycling mechanisms of C02 are important, and still widely disputed, variables in both their potential for affecting the earth's climate and in the development of accurate models of ocean circulation. The National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) is pleased to present the attendees of the Second Scientific Meeting of The Oceanography Society with this special publication, C02 Transport and Transformation in the Ocean. This publication provides a list of recent reference works about C02 transport, which were found by searching several online files and several CD-ROM products available at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Library"--Introduction

Landslides in Sensitive Clays
Author: Jean-Sébastien L'Heureux
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400770790
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
Landslides in sensitive clays represent a major hazard in the northern countries of the world such as Canada, Finland, Norway, Russia, Sweden and in the US state of Alaska. Past and recent examples of catastrophic landslides at e.g. Saint-Jean-Vianney in 1971, Rissa in 1979, Finneidfjord in 1996 and Kattmarka in 2009 have illustrated the great mobility of the remolded sensitive clays and their hazardous retrogressive potential. These events call for a better understanding of landslide in sensitive clay terrain to assist authorities with state-of-the-art hazard assessment methods, risk management schemes, mitigation measures and planning. During the last decades the elevated awareness regarding slope movement in sensitive clays has led to major advances in mapping techniques and development of highly sophisticated geotechnical and geophysical investigation tools. Great advances in numerical techniques dealing with progressive failure and landslide kinematic have also lead to increase understanding and predictability of landslides in sensitive clays and their consequences. This volume consists of the latest scientific research by international experts dealing with geological, geotechnical and geophysical aspects of slope failure in sensitive clays and focuses on understanding the full spectrum of challenges presented by landslides in such brittle materials.

History of the Native People of Canada, Volume III (A.D. 500 – European Contact)
Author: James Vallière Wright
Publisher: University of Ottawa Press
ISBN: 1772821462
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 510
Book Description
Part 1 of the final volume of A History of the Native People of Canada treats eastern Canada and the southern Subarctic regions of the Prairies from A.D. 500 to European contact. It examines the association of archaeological sites with the Native peoples recorded in European documents and particularly the agricultural revolution of the Iroquoian people of the Lower Great Lakes and Upper St. Lawrence River. Part 2 was never completed, as the author passed away.
