Annually Laminated Lake Sediments
The collection of papers presented in this book illustrates the recent progress made in varved sediment research and highlights the large variety of methodological approaches and research directions applied. The contributions cover monitoring of modern sediment fluxes using sediment traps; geochronological and sedimentological analyses of annually laminated lacustrine sediments or varves; and multiproxy investigations, including geochemical and biological proxies as well as spatiotemporal analyses based on multicore studies supported by satellite images and X-ray computed tomography (CT). The scientific issues discuss the influences of hydrological and climatological phenomena on short-term changes in sediment flux, the relationships between biogeochemical (limnological) processes in the water column and the formation of varves, the preservation of environmental signals in varved sediments, and possibilities of synchronizing varved records with other high-resolution environmental archives such as tree rings.
Climate Change in Poland
This edited book provides a comprehensive overview of the past, present and future climate development in Poland. The book consists of three main parts. The first part presents the results of the study of climate change before instrumental measurements in Poland in the last millennium. The second part analyses the long-term changes and variability of 36 climate characteristics for 14 climate elements, indices, meteorological phenomena and weather types using data from 79 weather stations in the base period 1951–2018 and for long series up to 239 years (1780–2018). The particular attention is paid to climate extremes. The third part of the book deals with projected changes in temperature, precipitation and thermal indices related to the agriculture and energy sectors. Two future time horizons are carried out: 1) near future: 2021–2050 and 2) far future: 2071–2100. The results for Poland are compared to those from Europe and other parts of the world. The book is addressed to scientists (climatologists, geographers, etc.), academic teachers, students, journalists and all those interested in Poland and climate change in Poland.
Climate and Anthropogenic Impacts on Earth Surface Processes in the Anthropocene
Climate and Anthropogenic Impacts on Earth Surface Processes in the Anthropocene outlines our current understanding of the effects of ongoing and accelerated environmental changes on Earth surface processes and details the systematic and quantitative methodology on the actual drivers of these processes. This book covers various geomorphological process domains and a wide range of terrestrial surface environments on Earth. It provides a broad spectrum of advanced techniques and methods of data collection and generation, together with various approaches and methods of data analysis and geomorphologic modelling. This book is a valuable resource for upper-level undergraduates, graduates, and aca...
35th IAS Meeting of Sedimentology: Book of Abstracts
The 35th International Meeting of Sedimentology supported by the International Association of Sedimentologists is an annual conference with global impact among the community of sedimentary geologists. Original scheduled at June 2020, the 35 the IAS Meeting of Sedimentology was postponed to June 21-25, 2021, and will be held virtually. The main convenor, Ondřej Bábek, is an employee of Palacký University Olomouc.
Zasoby i perspektywy gospodarowania wodą w dorzeczu Wisły
Książka składa się z 13 części, których autorami są pracownicy naukowi z ośrodków akademickich związanych z dorzeczem Wisły. Najwięcej uwagi poświęcono aktualnym problemom dotyczącym reżimu hydrologicznego Wisły, w tym zwłaszcza niżówkom oraz zmienności przepływu. Omówiono także zagadnienia związane ze zmianami jakości wody i zawartości węgla organicznego, a także przedstawiono kilka różnych zagadnień z zakresu hydrologii regionalnej Beskidów, Mazowsza czy delty Wisły. W książce znajdują się ponadto informacje z zakresu hydrografii historycznej, w tym na temat możliwości wykorzystania dawnych materiałów kartograficznych w badaniach dynamiki zmian zachodzących w korycie rzeki i w jego sąsiedztwie, a także informacje z zakresu gospodarowania wodą w aspekcie nowego Prawa wodnego.
