        Halogens and Noble Gases, Second Edition
        January 2019

        Halogens and Noble Gases, Second Edition

        by Monica Halka, Ph.D., and Brian Nordstrom, Ed.D.

        In spite of their adjacency in the periodic table, halogens and nonmetals have very different properties. Halogens are among the most chemically reactive elements in the periodic table, exhibiting a diverse chemistry in terms of the large numbers of compounds they can form. On the other hand, noble gases are the least chemically reactive elements. In fact, before the 1960s, chemists referred to these elements as inert gases, because it was believed that they exhibited no chemistry whatsoever. Providing the basics of these elements, including their role in history and some of the important scientists involved in their discovery, this newly updated, full-color resource features up-to-date scientific understanding in a clear and accessible format. Halogens and Noble Gases, Second Edition examines the ways humans use halogens and noble gases and the resulting benefits and challenges to society, health, and the environment. Fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, helium, and krypton are covered in this eBook, along with the fundamentals of chemistry and physics as well as possible future developments in halogen and noble gas science and its applications.

        Climate Management, Second Edition

        Solving the Problem

        by Julie Kerr, Ph.D.

        Whether people argue that global warming is caused by natural phenomena or that it is caused by humans—or both—it is one of the most controversial topics in the scientific world today. There are varying opinions between scientists about the effects of global warming because so many interrelated factors are involved, making it difficult to pinpoint specific impacts and make changes accordingly. The Earth's climate is an extremely complicated system, and climatologists must conduct research daily in order to improve their understanding of all the interrelated components. Climate Management, Second Edition focuses on changing human behavior as the first step toward a positive management system that will benefit current society and those to come. Thoroughly updated and featuring new graphs, charts, and illustrations, this full-color resource explores human psychology and how cultural value systems, politics, and news dissemination affect people's opinions, thereby driving public response. Informing readers on how global warming affects national security and terrorism and why its progression is a very real threat to everyone's future, this accessible resource presents various conservation programs that have been developed and looks at what is and isn't working. Climate Management, Second Edition also outlines the importance of public education and the role it plays in the future. Chapters include: The Beginning: the UNFCCC, Kyoto Protocol, and IPCC The U.S. Political Arena Cap-and-Trade Programs and Other Mitigation Strategies The International Political Arena Global Warming, Human Psychology, and the Media The Stand on the Debate Green Energy and Global Warming Research Climate Modeling Practical Solutions That Work: Getting Everyone Involved The Future: What Lies Ahead.

        Metals and Metalloids, Second Edition
        January 2019

        Metals and Metalloids, Second Edition

        by Monica Halka, Ph.D., and Brian Nordstrom, Ed.D.

        While scientists categorize the chemical elements as metals, nonmetals, and metalloids largely based on the elements' abilities to conduct electricity at normal temperatures and pressures, there are other distinctions that are taken into account when classifying the elements of the periodic table. The post-transition metals, for example, are metals, but have such special properties that they are given their own classification. The same is true for the metalloids. Metals and Metalloids, Second Edition presents the current scientific understanding of the physics, chemistry, geology, and biology of these two families of elements, including the post-transition metals and metalloids. Examining how these elements are synthesized in the universe, when and how they were discovered, and where they are found on Earth, this newly updated, full-color resource clearly details how metals and metalloids are used by humans, as well as the resulting benefits and challenges to society, health, and the environment. Metals and Metalloids, Second Edition provides readers with an up-to-date understanding regarding each of the post-transition metals and metalloids and where they may lead us.

        Changing Ecosystems, Second Edition

        Effects of Global Warming

        by Julie Kerr, Ph.D.

        Praise for the previous edition: "...the many charts and maps are useful...beneficial to a full understanding of the current debate."—School Library Journal Global warming has increased dramatically during the last century at an unnatural rate, which makes specialists believe that humans contribute to the real cause of global warming today. Many activities humans are involved in—from burning fossil fuels for energy to massive deforestation—are contributing to the atmospheric warming at an alarming rate. Experts believe that, in the future, human-induced damage will cause severe problems in the distribution of species and their critical habitats, increase the occurrence of severe weather and droughts, contribute to rising sea levels, and trigger a host of health and quality-of-life impacts that will affect everyone on Earth. Unfortunately, no ecosystem will escape the impact of human-induced global warming. Thoroughly updated and featuring new graphs, charts, and illustrations, Changing Ecosystems, Second Edition looks at this serious issue and the far-reaching effects it is having right now, and will have in the future, on every ecosystem on Earth. It is crucial that readers understand the relevant issues now so they can prevent this problem before it is too late and many species and habitats are gone forever. By discussing the effects of global warming on ecosystems, this eBook enlightens students on the many ways they can become more eco-responsible now and in the future. Chapters include: Signs and Effects of Global Warming Ecosystems, Adaptation, and Extinction Impacts to Forests Impacts to Rangelands, Grasslands, and Prairies Impacts on Polar Ecosystems Impacts to Desert Ecosystems Impacts to Mountain Ecosystems Impacts to Marine Ecosystems Conclusions—Where to Go from Here.

        Greenhouse Gases, Second Edition

        Worldwide Impacts

        by Julie Kerr, Ph.D.

        While there are several factors that contribute to global warming, such as natural changes in the Earth's inclination and revolution around the sun, by far the biggest factor is the emission of greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, chlorofluorocarbons, water vapor, and nitrous oxide are added at alarming rates to the atmosphere by daily human activity. Every person on Earth has a "carbon footprint"—a measure of greenhouse gas contributed to the atmosphere on a daily basis. Some people's footprints are much higher than others; for instance, those that live in developed countries such as the United States (the largest greenhouse gas emitter), emit much greater amounts than those living in undeveloped countries of the world. Various activities, such as agricultural and deforestation practices, also emit greenhouse gases. Thoroughly updated and featuring new graphs, charts, and illustrations, Greenhouse Gases, Second Edition explores the very important role these gases play and their global impact on populations and ecosystems worldwide. The goal of this eBook is to provide readers with an understanding of the various sources of these gases, their interaction with the atmosphere, their effect on natural systems, and why controlling them is critical to the Earth's future climate. Other issues discussed in this full-color eBook include the role of the ozone and a concept called "global dimming" and how it relates to global warming. Chapters include: The Greenhouse Effect and Global Warming Carbon Sequestration Agriculture and Greenhouse Gases Deforestation and Greenhouse Gases Anthropogenic Causes and Effects The Fate of Natural Refuges Global Warming Around the World Mitigation and Adaptation to Climate Change.

        May the Loveforce Be With You

        Kali-Ki Reiki: Healing Through Divine Mother & Yogic Wisdom

        by Rajashree Maa

        May the Loveforce Be With introduces a new lineage in energy healing, Kali-Ki ReikiTM, that was revealed to the author, Joni Dittrich, Ph.D. (Rajashree Maa), in a series of mystical encounters with the Divine Mother appearing as the goddess Kali Maa. The book brilliantly tells the stories of these encounters and presents the healing symbols that She revealed, explaining how these symbols can be used both for mind-body healing and spiritual awakening, or what Rajashree Maa calls "wisening." While traditional reiki systems also use symbols to transmit healing energy, the symbols introduced in Kali-Ki Reiki are seen as unique, three-dimensional, active, intelligent forms of light that tap into certain universal energy frequencies that are particularly attuned to the evolving conscious awareness as well as the personal and societal dilemmas of our current times. The fact that these symbols were revealed by Divine Mother to a woman in this era points to a need in today's world to re-establish our connection with the feminine forces of nature and spirit. The healing energy transmitted through these symbols is called Loveforce, which is considered to be the manifesting, creative, and healing power of the Limitless Love that is the Source of all that is.

        Ecological Footprints

        by Julie Kerr, Ph.D.

        Climate scientists have repeatedly told us that the most recent decades had the warmest temperatures ever recorded since records were consistently kept in the mid-1800s. Scientists worldwide support this notion, and there is an abundance of data collected to prove its validity. Some argue that the trend has not been a steady upward climb and that it has had intermittent cooling periods. Although these intervals have occurred every few decades in some locations, the overall tendency has been a steady upward climb, coinciding with melting glaciers, rising sea levels, shifting climatic zones, and changing ecosystems worldwide. Global Warming Trends, Second Edition presents an overview of significant climatic periods of the Earth's past and introduces the concept of climate proxies, or natural indicators that can be used to infer past climate. Thoroughly updated and featuring new graphs, charts, and illustrations, this accessible, full-color eBook discusses the concept of geochronology and how scientists determine the relative ages of objects on Earth. It also examines how scientists use pollen, tree rings, plant remains, and other life forms to make inferences about past climatic conditions. Global Warming Trends, Second Edition concludes with the most current information from climate experts, exploring the futuristic role of computer modeling and how it is helping scientists discover the past in order to predict the future. Chapters include: The Science of Paleoclimatology Key Climate Intervals in the Earth's Past Geochronology and Climate Proxies Proxy Data: Geomorphic Landforms Geological and Geochemical Proxy Data Biotic Proxies Climate Change and Past Civilizations Using New Technology to Discover the Past What the Experts Say Conclusions and a Glance into the Future.
