The Human History Mistake
Our ancestors didn't live in trees, and apes never turned into humans. In The Human History Mistake, German bestselling author Hans-Joachim Zillmer has compiled factual material and empirical facts from all over the world proving that Charles Darwin's evolution theory is a myth. For more than thirty years, Zillmer has concentrated on investigating contentious findings and inconsistencies in the images of the world, recording numerous sensational discoveries and showing that documenting the anthropogenesis must be changed. In The Human History Mistake, Zillmer points to numerous finds from the Stone Age that are far younger than previously thought. The skulls of Neanderthal man and of people from the Paleolithic age must be made "younger" by as much as 27,000 years to the age of a few thousand or even hundreds of years. This science book rejects the ideas of macroevolution, but instead demonstrates that microevolution plays a much larger role in the creation of new species. Accompanied by sixty-nine photos and forty-nine illustrations, The Human History Mistake shows that the history of mankind must be rewritten.
A Brain for All Seasons
Winner of the 2002 Phi Beta Kappa Award in Science Mankind has recently come to the shocking realization that our ancestors survived hundreds of abrupt and severe changes to Earth's climate. In this unique travelogue, William H. Calvin takes us around the globe and back in time, showing us how such cycles of cool, crash, and burn provided the impetus for enormous increases in the intelligence and complexity of human beings--and warning us of human activities that could trigger similarly massive shifts in the planet's climate.
Thresholds of Climate Change in Ecosystems
This report addresses and synthesizes the current state of scientific understanding regarding potential abrupt state changes or regime shifts in ecosystems in response to climate change. It provides an overview of what is known about ecological thresholds and where they are likely to occur. The report also identifies those areas where research is most needed to improve knowledge and understand the uncertainties regarding them. It suggests a suite of potential actions that land and resource managers could use to improve the likelihood of success for the resources they manage, even under conditions of incomplete understanding of what drives thresholds of change and when changes will occur. Charts and tables.
Palaeoecology of Africa and the Surrounding Islands
These papers derive from a workshop on "Quaternary Sedimentary Records in Central Africa and their Palaeoenvironmental Interpretation", held at the 15th INQUA Congress. They mainly cover the Late Quaternary to Holocene climate and environmental history of today's rainforest regions.
Die Ostsahara im Spätquartär
Die Ostsahara ist der größte hyperaride Raum der Erde. Die Forschungen zeigen, dass in den letzten ca. 13.000 Jahren ein geradezu dramatischer Klimawandel abgelaufen ist. Die Rekonstruktion der ostsaharischen Geoökosysteme auf der Basis von geomorphologisch-paläohydrographischen, sedimentologischen und paläozoologischen Befunden führt zu überraschenden Ergebnissen. Beispielsweise erweisen sich einige schwer zugängliche Syneklisen der Ostsahara während der früh- bis mittelholozänen Feuchtphase als bedeutende Wasserdampfquellen. Die Existenz von fischreichen Süßwasserseen und ausgedehnten Sümpfen im Inneren des Kontinents führte zu einem rückgekoppelten System mit niederschlagsauslösendem Effekt und Grundwasserbildung. Paläodrainagesysteme hoben den endorheischen Status auf; sie bildeten Migrationsbahnen für äthiopide Großsäuger und neolithische Ethnien. Der Widerspruch zwischen der heutigen Aridität und der Tatsache eines Grundwasserexports aus den großen Becken der Ostsahara an dienordafrikanische Küste wird vor dem Hintergrund der geologischen und paläoklimatischen Entwicklung diskutiert.
The Oceans
The 4.4-billion-year history of the oceans and their role in Earth's climate system It has often been said that we know more about the moon than we do about our own oceans. In fact, we know a great deal more about the oceans than many people realize. Scientists know that our actions today are shaping the oceans and climate of tomorrow—and that if we continue to act recklessly, the consequences will be dire. Eelco Rohling traces the 4.4-billion-year history of Earth's oceans while also shedding light on the critical role they play in our planet's climate system. This timely and accessible book explores the close interrelationships of the oceans, climate, solid Earth processes, and life, using the context of Earth and ocean history to provide perspective on humankind's impacts on the health and habitability of our planet.
