This visually stunning book with over 250 full-color illustrations, many of them never before published, is based on Carl Sagan’s thirteen-part television series. Told with Sagan’s remarkable ability to...
In its 2001 report on global climate, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change of the United Nations prominently featured the Hockey Stick,” a chart showing global temperature data over the past one...
At the dawn of the twentieth century, a great confidence suffused America. Isaac Cline was one of the era's new men, a scientist who believed he knew all there was to know about the motion of clouds and the...
Killer tornadoes. Violent tropical storms. Devastating temperatures. Are these just the prelude to an unprecedented environmental disaster in our near future?
Two of America's leading investigators of unexplained...
If, like many Americans, you believe the ongoing tragedy of Hurricane Katrina was a once-in-a-lifetime fluke, you need to read this book. In the coming years and decades, the safety of your region, your town,...
A humorous and practical guide to the history and science of understanding the weather-plus, how to build your own barometer! For as long as man has walked upon this earth, he has been forced to survive under...
It’s been nearly four decades since scientists first realized that global warming posed a potential threat to our planet. Why, if we knew of the threats way back in the Carter Administration, can’t we act...
During the course of this century, meteorology has become unified, physics-based, and highly computational. Calculating the Weather: Meteorology in the 20th Century explains this transformation by examining...
Chosen for the 2011 ASLI Choice - Honorable Mention (History Category) for a compendium of the key scientific papers that undergird the global warming forecast.
Global warming is arguably the defining scientific...
How does life on our planet respond to--and shape--climate? This question has never been more urgent than it is today, when humans are faced with the daunting task of guiding adaptation to an inexorably changing...
This first comprehensive review of airborne measurement principles covers all atmospheric components and surface parameters. It describes the common techniques to characterize aerosol particles and cloud/precipitation...
This chapter examines climate futures in the context of Earth system (ES) study. The notion of Earth as a living, integrated system is not new. The future climate is just one component of a larger, complex system...
This chapter illustrates various regional climate phenomena that are important for producing the climate in different regions. The climate in any particular region is produced by an interaction of various phenomena...
This chapter provides an overview of how humans affect climate through land surface modification. In terms of climate modification, "climate" means a longer-term statistic (e.g., decades), but does not necessarily...
This chapter illustrates how the terrestrial carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles are expected to change because of climate change and the consequences of these changes for the future levels of atmospheric CO2....
The occurrence of glacials is associated with NH summer at aphelion, a large eccentricity, and a low obliquity. For the interglacials, researchers tentatively associated them with NH summer at perihelion, a...
On any timescale, global climate can be seen to be continuously varying, never dwelling long at any one value and frequently crossing the mean, thereby further rendering the definition of climate as a long-term...
Urbanization is an agent of change at local, regional, and global-scales. The conversion of a landscape to urban land cover causes large changes to the local and regional energy, carbon, and water balances;...
Are pupils, parents and the public being fed political propaganda on climate change? Now is your chance to find out. Professor Plimer gives 101 simple questions with answers for you to ask teachers, activists,...
In a wonderful synthesis of science, history, and imagination, Gino Segrè, an internationally renowned theoretical physicist, embarks on a wide-ranging exploration of how the fundamental scientific concept...
