Human well-being is inextricably linked to the condition of the natural environment. Environmental management decisions often aim to maintain ecosystems in a healthy and resilient condition while providing the ecosystem goods and services that humans want and need. Models, methods, frameworks, and metrics are needed to characterize and forecast the potential benefits from remediation, restoration, and revitalization that improve human health and well-being through the delivery of ecosystem services. However, ecosystems are complex, and layering on social and economic considerations can make environmental decision-making seem intractable. Dynamics of socio-ecological systems are complicated, ...
Sometimes friends make the best lovers…and sometimes sex ruins everything. Dallas is a stereotypical artist: passionate, creative, and flighty. She’s also not getting any younger. She wants to settle down, but her lack of experience in the bedroom is a stumbling block to building a serious relationship. Prince Kristian, second in line to the throne of the Kingdom of Medina, maintains rigid order in every area of his life, including his work as a chef and restaurateur. Everything has a place-- and in all the years since they met at college, Dallas’s place has been firmly in the friend zone. So when she asks him to be her first, he says no…and then realizes he hates the thought of her sleeping with another man. But just as things finally heat up between them, Kristian’s meddling family and Dallas’s old insecurities interfere. Can he convince Dallas to give him another chance, or will these friends turned lovers lose everything? Categories and Keywords: Royalty, IR/MC, BBW, Friends to Lovers
What is happening in our oceans? By describing their main elements, this book shows how and why the oceans are being transformed, and suggests possible future scenarios to address this complex, yet often-asked, question. The ocean is being dramatically transformed, but the magnitude of this transformation remains unclear since the ocean is largely inaccessible and still unknown: there is more information about the outer universe than about the deepest parts of our oceans. The author, a marine biologist with extensive research experience, offers a holistic view of our oceans. Focusing on fishing, pollution and the effects of climate change, he identifies and describes the changes occurring in all marine ecosystems, and discusses the long-passed state of equilibrium.
