Beyond The Natural
In Beyond the Natural, Patricia Wheeler shares her experiences of hearing the voice of God and being touched by His love and mercy in ways that were sometimes quiet, sometimes ear-shattering, often miraculous and always profound. Told with humor and humility, these stories are rooted in everyday life and life-altering events. The parochial school educator captivated generations of young students with these anecdotes as they inevitably became a much-loved tradition in her classroom. Now this remarkable testimony of personal faith will inspire you to listen for God in your own life. After 38 years teaching third grade in a suburb of Seattle, Washington, Patricia retired with her husband Bob and dog Sammie to southwest Arizona. She enjoys fishing, camping, biking and exploring the area's natural beauty and picturesque towns. As a talented artist, she frequently donates her paintings and mixed-media portraits to support many community causes.
Biological Oceanography
This new edition of Biological Oceanography has been greatly updated and expanded since its initial publication in 2004. It presents current understanding of ocean ecology emphasizing the character of marine organisms from viruses to fish and worms, together with their significance to their habitats and to each other. The book initially emphasizes pelagic organisms and processes, but benthos, hydrothermal vents, climate-change effects, and fisheries all receive attention. The chapter on oceanic biomes has been greatly expanded and a new chapter reviewing approaches to pelagic food webs has been added. Throughout, the book has been revised to account for recent advances in this rapidly changing field. The increased importance of molecular genetic data across the field is evident in most of the chapters. As with the previous edition, the book is primarily written for senior undergraduate and graduate students of ocean ecology and professional marine ecologists.
