Modern geoscience research informs many important decisions and projects, such as geological disaster preparation, natural resource extraction, and global development. This critical research relies on technology and collaboration at state-of-the-art seismological and geodetic facilities. Currently, these facilities provide a wide variety of observation systems that support scientists' understanding of Earth and its changing environmental systems. As emerging technologies develop rapidly, seismological and geodetic facilities have new capabilities and more complex management and research communication systems. This requires a reevaluation of management structures and best practices within the...
As a young fourteen-year-old African American five-month pregnant girl, I was nearly killed by my Mother. Scars were left behind when my Mother put me in the New York Foundling Hospital for pregnant young girls. I was pretty much on my own.

My Mother didnt teach me about the facts of Life, and my brothers and sisters werent sibling figures; because they were older, and into themselves. Throughout my Trails and Tribulations in my Life, I left Scars behind from my peers ...

A comprehensive overview of the artist's work focuses on Burchfield's expressive watercolors and includes drawing from his 1917 sketchbook, camouflage designs from his tour in the army, and wallpaper designs from the 1920s.
Both a scientific tour and a journey through time, this book profiles 10 of the world's most exciting lakes. From the Caspian Sea, a giant salt water lake, to Lake Eyre, the lake that vanishes, to the sub-Arctic Great Slave Lake, the story of each lake unfolds with a look at its origins, how it has changed over time, and why.
