Cosmogenic nuclides: Principles, concepts and applications in the earth surface sciences
by Tibor Dunai, 2010
A comprehensive introduction to the novel and fast-evolving topic of in-situ produced cosmogenic nuclides. Theoretical and practical aspects are discussed, the full range of cosmogenic isotopes is covered, and a wide spectrum of in-situ applications are illustrated with specific and generic examples of exposure dating, burial dating, erosion and uplift rates and process model verification.
Coping with climate change: Considerations for adaptation and mitigation in agriculture
by Michael Glantz, Rene Gommes, and Selvaraju Ramasamy, 2009
This CCB work presents fundamental issues and concepts involved in increasing the resilience of present food production systems to challenges posed by climate change.
Glacier mass balance changes and meltwater discharge
edited by Patrick Ginot and Jean-Emmanuel Sicart, 2007
Proceedings of a workshop Andean Glaciology and a symposium Contributions from Glaciers and Snow Cover to Runoff from Mountains in Different Climates, convened by the IAHS in 2005.
The climate of Alaska
by Martha Shulski and Gerd Wendler, 2007
A detailed picture of what to expect from Alaska’s geographically varied and complex climate.
A practical guide to the study of glacial sediments
edited by David Evans and Douglas Benn, 2004
This guide to the standard techniques employed to read the sedimentary record of former glaciers and ice sheets demonstrates how they can provide detailed insights into former environments and climates for which no other evidence is available.
