Vegetation of the Earth and Ecological Systems of the Geo-biosphere
Phytomass and Primary Production of the Various Vegetational Zones and of the Entire Biosphere The biosphere is that thin layer at the earth's surface in which living organisms exist and biological cycling takes place. It includes the upper horizons of the soil in which plants root, the atmosphere near the ground, (insofar as organisms penetrate this space), and all the surface waters. More than 99% of the earth's biomass is phytomass, to which we shall limit our discussion. Amounts of phytomass are distinctly related to vegeta tional zones.

From Toleration to Expulsion
On April 6, 1948, a significant portion of the population of the village of Ecsny in Somogy County, Hungary, was expelled from their homeland. This was the result of Protocol XIII of the Potsdam Declaration of 1945 calling for the orderly and humane transfer of German populations now living in Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary.

Mud and Snow
Mud and Snow: Into Russia and Back is an artfully woven novel by Marc Hetzel. Hetzel's gripping novel is based on true life events and follows the life of a World War II veteran. Walter Hetzel, a butcher's son is thrust into war when he's a young man. Walter leaves his boyhood home in Chemnitz and trains for active duty in Krakow, Poland. Walter's tour of duty takes him to the Russian front where he's captured near Vitebsk and then sent to Moscow. While there, Walter makes friends with the other prisoners but learns the devastation of war up close and personal. Walter spends several years as a POW; and after returning home finds his home forever changed-as he is. Hetzel writes with incredible clarity, expertly capturing the mood, setting, and inner-workings of a young man losing his innocence while being exposed to horrific events and situations. Based on true-life events, his novel will haunt your conscience long after you've turned the last page. Marc Hetzel is a writer and works in the poker industry.
