The Changing Alpine Treeline The Example of Glacier National Park, MT, USA【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The alpine treeline ecotone (ATE) is an area of transition high on mountains where closed canopy forests from lower elevations give way to the open alpine tundra and rocky expanses above. Alpine tundra is an island biome and its ecotone with forest is subject to change, and like oceanic islands, alpine tundra is subject to invasion ? or the upward advance of treeline. The invasion of tundra by trees will have consequences for the tundra biome as invasion does for other island flora and fauna. To examine the invasibility of tundra we take a plant's-eye-view, wherein the local conditions become extremely important. Among these local conditions, we find geomorphology to be exceptionally important. We concentrate on aspects of microtopography (and microgeomorphology) and microclimate because these are the factors that matter: from the plant's-eye-view, but we pay attention to multiple scales. At coarse scales, snow avalanches and debris flows are widespread and create "disturbance treelines whose elevation is well below those controlled by climate. At medium scales, turf-banked terraces create tread-and-riser topography that is a difficult landscape for a tree seedling to survive upon because of exposure to wind, dryness, and impenetrable surfaces. At fine scales, turf exfoliation of the fronts of turf-banked risers, and boulders, offer microsites where tree seedlings may find shelter and are able to gain a foothold in the alpine tundra; conversely, however, surfaces of needle-ice pans and frost heaving associated with miniature patterned ground production are associated with sites inimical to seedling establishment or survival. We explicitly consider how local scale processes propagate across scales into landscape patterns. The objective of this book is to examine the controls on change at alpine treeline. All the papers are focused on work done in Glacier National Park, Montana, USA. Although any one place is limiting, we are able to examine the alpine treeline here in some detail ? and an advantage is that the treeline ecotone in Glacier National Park is quite variable in itself due to the underlying variability in geomorphology at multiple scales. This book will provide insights into an important ecological phenomenon with a distinctly geomorphic perspective. The editors collectively have over 100 years of experience in working in geomorphology, biogeography, and ecology. They also have each worked on research in Glacier National Park for several decades. The book will be a reference for a variety of professionals and students, both graduate and undergraduate, with interests in Physical Geography, Geomorphology, Ecology, and Environmental Science. Because of the importance of the alpine treeline ecotone for recreation and aesthetic interests in mountain environments, wildland and park managers will also use this book. - Subject matter: geomorphology at alpine treeline - Expertise of contributors: each editor brings over 25 years of experience in studies of ecotones and geomorphology, and collectively over 100 years of experience in Glacier National Park - Changing alpine treeline examines climate change</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 22,205円

The Icebound Paradox A Journey to the Edge of the Last Glacier【電子書籍】[ Alyssa Navarro ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>2077: Earth is a scorched wasteland, and humanity clings to survival on the Northwind Glacier, a colossal ice island adrift in the Arctic Ocean. For the Glacials, this frozen fortress is their only home, their lives intricately bound to its ancient rhythms. But their sanctuary is cracking, and not by nature’s hand.</p> <p>Alyssa Navarro, a brilliant climatologist haunted by the memory of her drowned hometown, discovers a chilling truth: CryoCorp, a shadowy corporation, is systematically dismantling the glacier for profit, transforming its ice into precious water for a thirsty world. Driven by a fierce desire for justice, Alyssa joins forces with Christine Ochoa, a seasoned Glacial hunter, and a derelict AI drone she names Cirrus. Together, they embark on a perilous journey into the glacier’s icy heart, a treacherous labyrinth of crevasses, ice caves, and unstable bridges.</p> <p>Their mission: expose CryoCorp and halt its devastating operations before the glacier collapses, taking the Glacials’ world with it. But the deeper they delve, the more complex the paradox becomes. The Glacials’ very survival, dependent on the ice, is also contributing to its demise. And Cirrus, their technological ally, begins to evolve, blurring the lines between tool and companion, its true motives shrouded in mystery.</p> <p>As the ice crumbles around them, Alyssa must confront not only a ruthless corporation, but also the difficult truth about her people’s way of life. In a world ravaged by climate change, where survival comes at a cost, Alyssa races against time to ignite a rebellion, expose a conspiracy, and find a new path forward for the remnants of humanity. Will they escape the icebound paradox, or be buried beneath it?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,437円

The Glacier Gate An Adventure Story【電子書籍】[ Frank Lillie Pollock ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Glacier Gate," Frank Lillie Pollock masterfully merges natural history with adventure, crafting a compelling narrative that explores the majestic wilderness of the American Rockies. Pollock's prose is rich in vivid imagery and sensory detail, evoking the awe-inspiring landscapes and the delicate interplay of human and nature.

The Glacier【電子書籍】[ Leonard ]

<p>Two agents disembarked somewhere at the latitudes 74-75N and disappeared in the cold white world. Nobody had ever heard about them from then. Twenty years later a team of best glaciologists of the country of Russia went to high latitudes of Arctic. They all were enthusiastic scientists under the leadership of talented young doctor of science, Vladimir Ustinov, looking with excitement for new discoveries on the largest in the Northern Hemisphere glacier of Greenland. They did it. The glacier was not cold; it was hot. The scientist had realized long time ago that the whole Greenland Ice Sheet was in fact one huge thousands of trillion tones glacier. However, the twisted minds of the others became curious about this phenomenon for the absolutely remote from the science reason. The great discovery was about to become a source of the greatest tragedy in the present world. The earth crust rift zones if stimulated provoked or rather evoked for activity could shift and move to plow everything on its way across North American continent. A resolute struggle with destructive forces set upon Arctic - in the abyssal of Greenland Sea and on the Hot Glacier</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 607円

Cold Sun The Search for World War II Airmen Lost in a Tibetan Glacier【電子書籍】[ William H. Jordan ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In January 1944, a US Army Air Corps transport, en route to its home base in India, crashed into a snowfield in Tibet, killing all crew members. Because of the remote location and fierce winter weather, the aircraft was covered by heavy snowfall. The snowfield glaciated, completely hiding the aircraft until its accidental discovery by a Tibetan hunter in 1993. A nearby Chinese army garrison launched an immediate reconnaissance into the crash site and brought out remnants of the airplane and remains of the crew. They then notified the American Embassy in Beijing.</p> <p>Then-Colonel William H. Jordan, commander of the US Army Central Identification Laboratory in Hawaii, was assigned to investigate the crash site and to recover, identify, and repatriate the remains of the fallen US servicemen. <em>Cold Sun: The Search for World War II Airmen Lost in a Tibetan Glacier</em> is Jordan’s recounting of the events surrounding the recovery, including the final, solemn duty of officially informing the lost crewmen’s family membersーby this time in middle age or olderーof the fate of their loved ones. He weaves the mission of the aircraft and crew’s fate through the prism of America’s history of identifying and recovering their fallen warriors, the efforts over the years, and technological leaps needed to finally accomplish this grim, necessary mission.</p> <p>Inspiring and informative, based in the personal reflections of Jordan and the others involved*, Cold Sun* tells the gripping story of a tragic loss, a harrowing recovery effort, and the human efforts involved.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,317円

The Bleeding Glacier of Antarctica: A 15-Minute Strange But True Tale 15-Minute Books, #226【電子書籍】[ Jeannie Meekins ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>McMurdo Dry Valleys, in Antarctica, is one of the world's cruelest deserts. You may think that a desert is a hot, dry place, full of sand. Science defines a desert as a place that has less than 10 inches (254 millimetres) of rainfall per year. Antarctica has none.<br /> Even if the snow that falls on the ice sheets melted, it would only result in about two inches (five millimetres) of water per year.<br /> Wind blows cold air down off the ice sheets and through the valleys at speeds up to 200 miles (320 kilometres) per hour. These winds are called katabatic winds. They suck all the moisture out of the air. Snow and ice evaporates before it can ever settle on the ground. McMurdo Dry Valleys remain ice free in a continent covered by ice sheets and glaciers.<br /> In the Dry Valleys are a number of ice covered lakes. Some are saltwater. Some are freshwater.

Bukhari The saga of Glacier war【電子書籍】[ Shyamal Bhattacharya ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>‘ Bukhari’ (The Hearth) ‘ written by SHYAMAL BHATTACHARYA, translated by SUBHRASANKAR DAS, is a fiction based on the lives of the Indian soldiers who were performing their duties in the untried icy and treacherous heights of Siachen, where not even a blade of grass grows. The novel subtly reveals the smoldering volcanoes that each soldier carries within himself in the unforgiving icy surroundings. The latent desires, dreams, restlessness and helplessness of the characters find an adroit expression in this novel.<br /> More than 25 blustery, shivering years, the Indian and Pakistani armies have been fighting a "No-Win" battle on the 20,000-foot-high Siachen Glacier, the world's highest war-ground. On average, one Pakistani soldier is killed every fourth day, while one Indian soldier is killed every other day. Over 1,300 Pakistani soldiers have died on Siachen between 1984 and 1999. According to Indian estimates, this operation had cost India over Rs. 50 billion and almost 2,000 personnel casualties till 1997. Almost all of the casualties on both sides have been due to extreme weather conditions. In spite of this,<br /> The word `Siachen` ironically means the place of wild roses. Arduous to live in, the Siachen area is beautiful to look at from the cockpit. Some of the world's tallest mountains fill the landscape, their snowy tops giving way to rivulets of white that glitter against the black and purple rock. It is a moonscape of mesmerizing pinnacles and ridges and drops. Ice formations rise a mile high. Clouds seem at arm's reach. During storms, the heavy snowfall seems as thick as long, white drapery. The wind does pinwheels, and the basic of a hard life gets that much harder.<br /> The roots of the conflict over Siachen lie in the non-demarcations on the western side on the map beyond NJ9842. Prior to 1984 neither India nor Pakistan had any permanent presence in the area. Today, Siachen is more important as a test of diplomacy than of high-altitude battle skills. Over the years, Siachen itself has been the subject of seven major rounds of talks under various Governments ruled by various parties, negotiators have agreed that the conflict is futile -- and some have even called it lunatic. But one side or the other has always been too afr. Presently India holds two-thirds of the glacier and controls a few of the top-most heights aid of a double-cross to complete a deal.<br /> But what is the guarantee that in future Pakistani general/president will not re-occupy Siachen with ‘freedom fighters’? And in future Indian government will not ask the armed forces to take back the Soltoro ridge? USA and few western weapon manufacturing countries are only interested in selling more and more Fighter Aircrafts, Canons, other weapons and war machines to both the country. Hence, for their business shake the show must go on. If indeed we wanted to hold on to the heights, then why are we talking with each other for the last two decades to demilitarise the area? What of the four thousand soldiers who have been disabled? The cost is not only what is paid out to them in terms of disability pensions. . What of the suffering of thousands of soldiers who spend several long months at altitudes where basic survival is at stake? And finally, what about the effect on the environment?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 752円

At the Glacier’s Edge A Natural History of Long Island from the Narrows to Montauk Point【電子書籍】[ Betsy McCully ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Vast salt marshes, ancient grasslands, lush forests, pristine beaches and dunes, and copious inland waters, all surrounded by a teeming sea. These are probably not the first things you imagine when you think of Long Island, but just beyond its highways and housing developments lies a stunning landscape full of diverse plant and animal life.</p> <p>Combining science writing, environmental history, and first-hand accounts from a longtime resident, <em>At the Glacier’s Edge</em> offers a unique narrative natural history of Long Island. Betsy McCully tells the story of how the island was formed at the end of the last ice age, how its habitats evolved, and how humans in the last few hundred years have radically altered and degraded its landscape. Yet as she personally recounts the habitat losses and species declines she has witnessed over the past few decades, she describes the vital efforts that environmental activists are making to restore and reclaim this landーfrom replanting salt marshes, to preserving remaining grasslands and forests, to cleaning up the waters. <em>At the Glacier’s Edge</em> provides an in-depth look at the flora, fauna and geology that make Long Island so special.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,708円

The Great Melt Comparing National Responses to the Global Crisis of Glacier Retreat【電子書籍】[ Azhar ul Haque Sario ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>What happens when the world's frozen giants begin to disappear?</p> <p>This book takes you on a global journey. We explore a critical climate crisis. It's about melting glaciers. We see how different nations are responding to this challenge. We travel to the high Himalayas in Nepal to understand climate vulnerability. We visit Switzerland, a global hub for cryosphere science. Then, we go to Peru, where communities are fighting for water security in the Andes. We learn about Bhutan's unique approach, filtering climate policy through Gross National Happiness. The book covers the subcontinental scale of India's challenges. China's massive engineering solutions in the Third Pole are examined. We explore complex issues in Chile, where mining, conservation, and water rights clash. Norway's climate paradox as an energy giant is revealed. We see how New Zealand is adapting in the Southern Alps. Canada's response spans from the Rockies to the Arctic. We witness the deep policy divides and Alaskan realities in the United States. We even look at European nations like Germany and Italy, linking their disappearing Alpine glaciers to EU policy. The book also includes countries defined not by mountains but by adaptation, like The Netherlands, and others like South Korea that are offering technological responses to this global challenge.</p> <p>Many books tell you that glaciers are melting. They show you the alarming science. "The Great Melt" does something different. It moves beyond just describing the problem to focus on the human response. This book offers a unique comparative analysis you won't find anywhere else. By placing these diverse national case studies side-by-side, it connects the dots between policy, culture, economy, and technology. How does a nation's energy wealth, like Norway's, create a climate paradox? How can a cultural philosophy, like Bhutan's, shape environmental law? How do developing nations like Nepal and Peru adapt with fewer resources compared to giants like the US and China? This book doesn't just present isolated stories. It weaves them together, revealing a global tapestry of innovation, political struggle, and human adaptation. It provides a real-world look at what works, what doesn't, and what the future might hold, offering practical insights that a purely scientific text simply cannot provide.</p> <p>Disclaimer: The author has no affiliation with any official boards or organizations mentioned and this work is independently produced under nominative fair use.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 888円
