Examines the various forms of evidence used to establish the history and scale of environmenal changes during the Quaternary. The evidence is extremely diverse, ranging from landforms and sediments to fossil assemblages and isotope ratios, bringing the book fully up to date since its last publication.
The effects of periglaciation on the British landscape are synthesised in this 1997 text.
"Jack Ross, after serving his country in top-secret special ops missions for most of his adult life, has discovered that the jumpdrive, a device that allows interstellar transportation, has immense possibilities. The jumpdrive has introduced the people of Earth to planets with alien beings who remarkably resemble animal life-forms from Earth. One of these species, the H'kaah, agree to a business proposition that allows them to live on Earth under the supervision and guidance of human hosts, their 'Patrons.' This business deal leads to an incredible adventure for Jack, the first Patron, and his companion as the two species learn to live in a cooperative environment, and teaches how being different doesn't necessarily mean being unable to be compatible. and to love. This amazing tale of futuristic possibilities will hold you spellbound until you realize that no matter who you are or what you've done, your fate is always open, never carved in stone, and could possibly be your Redeeming Factor."--Back cover
Groundwater is an increasingly important resource to human populations around the world, and the study and protection of groundwater is an essential part of hydrogeology - the subset of hydrology that concentrates on the subsurface. Environmental isotopes, naturally occurring nuclides in water and solutes, have become fundamental tools for tracing

Ostracod crustaceans, common microfossils in marine and freshwater sedimentary records, supply evidence of past climatic conditions via indicator species, transfer function and mutual climatic range approaches as well as the trace element and stable isotope geochemistry of their shells. As methods of using ostracods as Quaternary palaeoclimate proxies have developed, so too has a critical awareness of their complexities, potential and limitations. This book combines up-to-date reviews (covering previous work and summarising the state of the art) with presentations of new, cutting-edge science (data and interpretations as well as methodological developments) to form a major reference work that will constitute a durable bench-mark in the science of Ostracoda and Quaternary climate change. - In-depth and focused treatment of palaeoclimate applications - Provides durable benchmark and guide for all future work on ostracods - Presents new, cutting-edge science
