    Abstract: This contributed volume presents an analysis of the current conservation status of major faunal groups in Mexico. The chapters describe a prognosis of future challenges, and also explore the expanding threats inherent in the Anthropocene within the context of the unique physical, biological and cultural aspects of the nation. Covering 27 chapters, and written by Mexican and international authors, this book analyzes a wide range of vertebrate and invertebrate animal taxa, their ecosystems and the critical processes related to their present conservation status. This volume is an important reference material for researchers, conservationists and students interested in the biological and ecological processes shaping the Mexican fauna.

    Soil atlas of Europe (2005)

    Call number: IASS 13.0100 ; A3 49
    Description / Table of Contents: The atlas is the result of a collective effort by more the 40 National soil surveys and soil science institutions cooperating across Europe within the European Soil Bureau Network (ESBN). This network, established by the JRC in 1989, has formalised already existing collaborations among soil surveys already initiated in 1959 by the UN FAO as the first steps towards a common soil map for the European Union. The main European added value of the ESBN has been the joint effort towards bringing together soil information collected in separate European countries, using very different methodologies, standards and scientific backgrounds, into one single geographic information system (GIS) while demonstrating that, at least for soil science, a “Europe without borders” is possible. Lengthy cross-border harmonisation sessions between bordering countries have resulted in a common fully harmonised soil geographical database of Europe at a nominal scale of 1:1,000,000. This database has allowed the production of the maps that are at the heart of the new “Soil Atlas of Europe”. Soil resources of Europe are limited and need to be protected for future generations. A number of threats are affecting the functioning of European soils, not only for the purpose of agricultural production, but also for other important environmental services that soil delivers to all of us: - storage, filtering and buffering of contaminants, allowing us to enjoy clean ground- and surface waters, - limiting dramatic flood events; - enhancing the storage of greenhouse gases that otherwise would be released to the atmosphere; - preserving a large pool of biodiversity by hosting a large number of microbial species in the soil top layers; , - archiving human artefacts that document our common European cultural heritage; - providing stable surfaces for our housing and infrastructure and source of raw materials; etc… The “Soil Atlas of Europe” uses specific maps to illustrate threats such as soil erosion, the decline of organic matter, soil sealing by housing and infrastructure, etc… Soil protection has a strong trans-boundary character. The Atlas dedicates a large section to the global dimension of soil protection, including a number of plates covering the Mediterranean countries, the Northern Circumpolar Countries (Eurasia, Greenland, North-America) and the globe, based on the joint efforts of the European Commission with the partner organisations in other areas of the world and FAO. Global climate change will affect soil substantially in the future, posing a serious threat to large areas of permafrost. The Northern Circumpolar Soil Database, a joint international effort, will allow more accurate assessment of this potential threat. Not only climate change, but also desertification and loss of biodiversity are strongly affecting soils globally, making the new “Soil Atlas of Europe” relevant to a much larger community of stakeholders involved in the implementation of the three “Rio-Conventions” and allowing to explore possible synergies among international multilateral agreements towards global soil protection. The Soil Atlas of Europe contains: - Maps, Tables, Figures and graphs - Introduction to Soils - Regional map sheets Who will read the Soil Atlas: - Reference work for EU citizens & Policy makers - Not aimed specifically at Soil Scientists - Raise profile of soil and related issues - Publicise the work of the ESB Network More then 20 years of collaboration between European soil scientists has resulted in the publication by the European Commission of the first ever "Soil Atlas of Europe". Based on soil data and information collected within the European Soil Information System (EUSIS) developed by the Joint Research Centre, the atlas illustrates in 128 pages of maps, tables, figures and graphs, the richness of European soil resources and the need for their sustainable management. The Atlas compiles existing information on different soil types in easily understandable maps covering the entire European Union and bordering countries. The publication is intended for the general public, aiming to 'bridge the gap' between soil science and public knowledge. By addressing the non-specialized audience, the Atlas will increase public awareness and understanding of the diversity of soils and of the need to protect this precious resource.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: Bristol is a major city and port in the south-west of England. In medieval times, it became the third largest city in the kingdom, behind London and York. Bristol was founded in the late Saxon period and grew rapidly in the 12th and 13th centuries. Initially, seaborne trading links with Ireland and France were particularly significant; later, from the 16th century onwards, the city became a focus for trade with Iberia, Africa, and the New World. This led to the growth of new industries such as brass manufacture, glass production and sugar refining, producing items for export, and processing imported raw materials. Bristol also derived wealth from the slave trade between Africa and the New World. The city has a long history of antiquarian and archaeological investigation. This volume provides, for the first time, a comprehensive overview of the historical development of Bristol, based on archaeological and architectural evidence.Part 1 describes the geological and topographical context of Bristol and discusses evidence for the environment prior to the foundation of the city. The history of archaeological work in Bristol is discussed in detail, as is the pictorial record and the cartographic evidence for the city. In Part 2, a series of period-based chapters considers the historical background and archaeological evidence for Bristol’s development from the prehistoric, Roman, and post-Roman eras through the establishment and growth of Bristol between about 950 and 1200 AD; the medieval city; early modern period; and the period from 1700 to 1900 AD, when Bristol was particularly important for its role in transatlantic trade. Each chapter discusses the major civic, military, and religious monuments of the time and the complex topographical evolution of the city. Part 3 assesses the significance of Bristol’s archaeology and presents a range of themes for future research.
