Abstract

Une expérience d’une ampleur sans précédent est en train de se réaliser sous nos yeux ; elle est involontaire et non maîtrisée mais elle concerne la planète toute entière : la composition de l’atmosphère a subi, subit encore et subira des modifications qui devraient entraîner des changements importants du climat. Si le thème est d’actualité, les déclarations des uns et des autres ne permettent pas toujours d’y voir clair. Le but de ce livre est de fournir les éléments scientifiques nécessaires à une compréhension personnelle du sujet. Qu’est ce que l’effet de serre ? Quels sont les grands principes qui régissent le climat de la planète ? Comment la machine climatique fonction ne-telle et comment l’activité humaine la perturbe-telle ? La Terre se réchauffe-t-elle vraiment ? Comment situer l’évolution récente du climat par rapport au passé ? Le réchauffement est-il dû à l’activité humaine ? Pourquoi certains scientifiques ont-ils des avis divergents ? À quoi s’attendre au cours de ce siècle ? Qu’est-ce que la lutte contre l’effet de serre ? Quelles seront les conséquences les plus probables du réchauffement prévisible ? Ce livre tente de répondre à ces questions en distinguant le certain, le probable et le moins sûr, sans éluder les difficultés mais en s’efforçant de rester très accessible.

Abstract

Raymond S. Bradley provides his readers with a comprehensive and up-to-date review of all of the important methods used in paleoclimatic reconstruction, dating and paleoclimate modeling. Two comprehensive chapters on dating methods provide the foundation for all paleoclimatic studies and are followed by up-to-date coverage of ice core research, continental geological and biological records, pollen analysis, radiocarbon dating, tree rings and historical records. New methods using alkenones in marine sediments and coral studies are also described. Paleoclimatology, Second Edition, is an e

Abstract

In diesem Band wird das Klima als Entwurfsfaktor untersucht und sein Einfluss auf energetische und gestalterische Konsequenzen überprüft. Die Blickweise ist nicht eine abstrakt-technische, sondern eine anschaulich-räumliche, welche die Suche nach inspirierenden Lösungen bewusst stimuliert. This volume studies climate as a design factor and examines its influence on energy and design consequences. Instead of being abstract and technical, the perspective is vivid and spatial, thereby deliberately stimulating the search for inspiring solutions.

Abstract

"How does life on our planet respond to, and shape, climate? This question has never been more urgent than it is today, when humans are faced with the daunting task of guiding adaptation to an inexorably changing climate. This book provides an introduction to the most reliable current knowledge about the complex relationship between living things and climate. Using an Earth System framework, the author describes how organisms, communities of organisms, and the planetary biosphere itself react to and influence environmental change. While much about the biosphere and its interactions with the rest of the Earth System remains a mystery, this book explains what is known about how physical and chemical climate affect organisms, how those physical changes influence how organisms function as individuals and in communities of organisms, and ultimately how climate-triggered ecosystem changes feed back to the physical and chemical parts of the Earth System. This book shows how Earth's living systems profoundly shape the physical world." -- From publisher's website.

Abstract

While ecology has received little systematic attention within art history, its visibility and significance has grown in relation to the threats of climate change and environmental destruction. By engaging artists? widespread aesthetic and political engagement with environmental conditions and processes around the globe?and looking at cutting-edge theoretical, political, and cultural developments in the Global South and North?Decolonizing Nature offers a significant, original contribution to the intersecting fields of art history, ecology, visual culture, geography, and environmental politics. Art historian T. J. Demos, author of Return to the Postcolony: Specters of Colonialism in Contemporary Art (2013), considers the creative proposals of artists and activists for ways of life that bring together ecological sustainability, climate justice, and radical democracy, at a time when such creative proposals are urgently needed.
