Megaflooding on Earth and Mars
A research summary of the causes and effects of megaflooding on Earth and Mars, for hydrologists, planetary scientists and engineers.
Floods
This book is based upon papers presented at the BGRG symposium held in 1987 at the University of Lancaster. The topics covered include the latest developments in describing flood flow generation, interpretation of flood sediments, reconstruction of flood magnitude and other aspects of floods, as well as an assessment of the effects of floods within the framework of longer term landform evolution. The contributors were from a range of disciplines, but had a common interest in the dynamics of fluvial floods and their effect on the landscape. The volume will be of use to hydrologists, hydraulic engineers, geomorphologists and sedimentologists.
Lowland Floodplain Rivers
A collection of essays by international experts designed to reflect the holistic nature of the river valley. Examines the reach scale, channel dynamics, floodplain development and the relationship between channels, floodplains and man in a global context based on specific models. Emphasizes the requirements of the modeler and the necessity of detailed field observation.
Martian Gullies and their Earth Analogues
Gullies on Mars resemble terrestrial gullies involved in the transport of abundant material down steep slopes by liquid water. However, liquid water should not be stable at the Martian surface. The articles in this volume present the two main opposing theories for Martian gully formation: climate-driven melting of surficial water-ice deposits and seasonal dry-ice sublimation. The evidence presented ranges from remote-sensing observations, to experimental simulations, to comparison with Earth analogues. The opposing hypotheses imply either that Mars has been unusually wet in the last few million years or that it has remained a cold dry desert – both with profound implications for understanding the water budget of Mars and its habitability. The debate questions the limits of remote-sensing data and how we interpret active processes on extra-terrestrial planetary surfaces, even beyond those on Mars, as summarized by the review paper at the beginning of the book.
Return to Community
Provides a comprehensive, practical approach to fully integrating people with serious mental illnesses into the community. Drawing from a range of resources, including mental health consumers and their families, this pathbreaking work lays the groundwork for a critical rethinking of how we view people labeled "mentally ill". Defining "community integration," the author examines current and past approaches to meeting the needs of people with psychiatric disabilities, demonstrating how they have been inadequate. Carling then maps out a pioneering paradigm for community integration, which consists of an active partnership among mental health professionals, community leaders, policy makers, fami...
Will Carling
Will Carling talks frankly about the highs and lows of his rugby career, from the thrill of leading his nation to victory in three grand slams to the tabloid speculation over his private life and his friendship with Princess Diana.
