Greenhouse Gas Emissions - Fluxes and Processes
In a time when an unquestionable link between anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases and climatic changes has finally been acknowledged and * widely documented through IPCC reports, the need for precise estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) production rates and emissions from natural as well as managed ecosystems has risen to a critical level. Future agreements between nations concerning the reduction of their GHG emissions will - pend upon precise estimates of the present level of these emissions in both natural and managed terrestrial and aquatic environments. From this viewpoint, the present volume should prove to a benchmark contribution because it provides very carefully assessed value...
Blue Carbon Habitats
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2022-506/ This study shows that we can use satellite imagery to map Nordic salt marshes with an accuracy of 70%. It also shows how we can use satellite imagery to estimate their carbon storage potential. By knowing where our salt marshes are – the Nordic region is better suited to manage these coastal areas sustainably. A step towards achieving our Nordic Vision to become the most sustainable and integrated region in the world by 2030.
Water
Discusses using water as a source of energy.
Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Energy and Society
This volume presents current controversies that surround energy and society in a debate-style format designed to stimulate student interest and develop critical thinking skills. The energy industry is the totality of all of the industries involved in the production and sale of energy, including fuel extraction, manufacturing, refining and distribution. Modern society consumes large amounts of fuel, and the energy industry is a crucial part of the infrastructure and maintenance of society in almost all countries. These topics are framed with a general summary and introduction, and a postscript or challenge questions. This work features an annotated listing of selected World Wide Web sites and an online instructor's resource guide with testing material available.
Fools Rule
This eloquent, rage-inciting polemic about the global failure to deal with climate change will appeal to readers of Tim Flannery, George Monbiot and Bill McKibben - and anyone concerned with the economic and environmental future of our planet. Kyoto, 1997. Montreal, 2005. Copenhagen, 2009. Cancun, 2010. In Fools Rule, Marsden illustrates how inefficient and short-sighted political negotiations have become despite mounting scientific evidence that immediate action is essential to curb the effects of climate change. International climate change summits are now widely monitored events, attended by state leaders and crowded with journalists; yet somehow they have never been less productive. Trea...
Adapting to Climate Change and Variablity in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Basin
Presents proceedings of a symposium held to assess the risks of climate change and variability in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Basin and identify sustainable adaptation responses through the integration of various stakeholder perspectives. The proceedings included keynote presentations, poster papers, panel sessions, and working groups. Topics covered include Canadian and US research activities and scientific advances made in the areas of climate change, impacts and adaptation assessment, and climate prediction; impacts and risks of climate change and variability, and adaptation to those impacts and risks, from the point of view of such stakeholders as watershed managers, electric utilities, water suppliers, farmers, and governments; and future directions in water use and management, human health, land use and management, and ecosystem health.
