    Description / Table of Contents: Measurement Methods in Atmospheric Sciences provides a comprehensive overview of in-situ and remote sensing measurement techniques for probing the Earth's atmosphere. The methods presented in this book span the entire range from classical meteorology via atmospheric chemistry and micrometeorological flux determination to Earth observation from space. Standard instruments for meteorological and air quality monitoring methods, as well as specialized instrumentation predominantly used in scientific experiments, are covered. The presented techniques run from simple mechanical sensors to highly sophisticated electronic devices. Special emphasis is placed on the rapidly evolving field of remote sensing techniques. Here, active ground-based remote sending techniques such as SODAR and LIDAR find a detailed coverage. The book conveys the basic principles of the various observational and monitoring methods, enabling the user to identify the most appropriate method. An introductory chapter covers general principles (e.g. inversion of measured data, available platforms, statistical properties of data, data acquisition). Later chapters each treat methods for measuring a specific property (e.g. humidity, wind speed, wind direction). Long chapters provide an introductory tabular list of the methods treated. More than 100 figures and 400 references, mostly to the recent scientific literature, aid the reader in reading up on the details of the various methods at hand. Recommendations at the end of each major chapter provide additional hints on the use of some instruments in order to facilitate the selection of the proper instrument for a successful measurement. A large number of national and international standards, providing precise guidelines for measuring and acquiring reliable, reproducible and comparable data sets are listed in the appendix. A dedicated index allows easy access to this valuable information. The book is of interest to undergraduate and graduate students in meteorology, physical geography, ecology, environmental sciences and related disciplines as well as to scientists in the process of planning atmospheric measurements in field campaigns or working with data already acquired. Practitioners in environmental agencies and similar institutions will benefit from instrument descriptions and the extended lists in the appendix.

    Description / Table of Contents: Outside Russia very little is known about the terrestrial ecology, vegetation, biogeographical patterns, and biodiversity of the enormously extensive ecosystems of Yakutia, Siberia. These systems are very special in that they function on top of huge layers of permafrost and are exposed to very severe and extreme weather conditions, the range between winter and summer temperatures being more than 100 degrees C. The soils are generally poor, and human use of the vegetation is usually extensive. Main vegetation zones are taiga and tundra, but Yakutia also supports a special land and vegetation form, caused by permafrost, the alas: more or less extensive grasslands around roundish lakes in taiga. All these vegetation types will be described and their ecology and ecophysiological characteristics will be dealt with. Because of the size of Yakutia, covering several climatic zones, and its extreme position on ecological gradients, Yakutia contains very interesting biogeographical patterns, which also will be described. Our analyses are drawn from many years of research in Yakutia and from a vast body of ecological and other literature in Russian publications and in unpublished local reports. The anthropogenic influence on the ecosystems will be dealt with. This includes the main activities of human interference with nature: forestry, extensive reindeer herding, cattle and horse grazing, etc. Also fire and other prominent ecological factors are dealt with. A very important point is also the very high degree of naturalness that is still extant in Yakutia`s main vegetation zones.

    Description / Table of Contents: The modeling of the past, present, and future climates is of fundamental importance to the issue of climate change and variability. Climate change and climate modeling provides a solid foundation for science students in all disciplines for our current understanding of global warming and important natural climate variations such as El Niño, and lays out the essentials of how climate models are constructed. As issues of climate change and impacts of climate variability become increasingly important, climate scientists must reach out to science students from a range of disciplines. Climate models represent one of our primary tools for predicting and adapting to climate change. An understanding of their strengths and limitations - and of what aspects of climate science are well understood and where quantitative uncertainities arise - can be communicated very effectively to students from a broad range of the sciences. This book will provide a basis for students to make informed decisions concerning climate change, whether they go on to study atmospheric science at a higher level or not. The book has been developed over a number of years form the course that the author teaches at UCLA. It has been extensively class-tested by hundreds of students, and assumes no previous background in atmospheric science except basic calculus and physics.

    Description / Table of Contents: The Arctic is now experiencing some of the most rapid and severe climate change on earth. Over the next 100 years, climate change is expected to accelerate, contributing to major physical, ecological, social, and economic changes, many of which have already begun. Changes in arctic climate will also affect the rest of the world through increased global warming and rising sea levels. The volume addresses the following major topics: research results in observing aspects of the Arctic climate system and its processes across a range of time and space scales; representation of cryospheric, atmospheric, and oceanic processes in models, including simulation of their interaction with coupled models; our understanding of the role of the arctic in the global climate system, its response to large-scale climate variations, and the processes involved.

    Description / Table of Contents: Contents: Chapter 1: Introduction to the Cryosphere. - Chapter 2: Material Properties of Snow and Ice. - Chapter 3: Snow and Ice Thermodynamics. - Chapter 4: Seasonal Snow and Freshwater Ice. - Chapter 5: Sea Ice. - Chapter 6: Glaciers and Ice Sheets. - Chapter 7: Permafrost. - Chapter 8: Cryosphere-Climate Processes. - Chapter 9: The Cryosphere and Climate Change.
    Description / Table of Contents: The cryosphere encompasses the Earth's snow and ice masses. It is a critical part of our planet's climate system, one that is especially at risk from climate change and global warming. "The Cryosphere" provides an essential introduction to the subject, written by one of the world's leading experts in Earth-system science. In this primer, glaciologist Shawn Marshall introduces readers to the cryosphere and the broader role it plays in our global climate system. After giving a concise overview, he fully explains each component of the cryosphere and how it works - seasonal snow, permafrost, river and lake ice, sea ice, glaciers, ice sheets, and ice shelves. Marshall describes how snow and ice interact with our atmosphere and oceans and how they influence climate, sea level, and ocean circulation. He looks at the cryosphere's role in past ice ages, and considers the changing cryosphere's future impact on our landscape, oceans, and climate. Accessible and authoritative, this primer also features a glossary of key terms, suggestions for further reading, explanations of equations, and a discussion of open research questions in the field.

    Description / Table of Contents: Seit dem letzten glazialen Maximum erfuhr der westantarktische Eisschild (WAIS) dramatische Volumenänderungen innerhalb kurzer Zeiträume. Der WAIS hat dasPotenzial, den globalen Meeresspiegel um 3 - 5 m ansteigen zu lassen. Untersuchungen, die diese Variationen mit denen in der geologischen Vergangenheit vergleichen und somit Parameter für Vorhersagemodelle ableiten lassen, sind daher dringend erforderlich. Mit dieser vordringlichen Fragestellung vor Augen begann der FS Polarstern-Fahrtabschnitt ANT-XXVI/3 am 29. Januar 2010 in Wellington (Neuseeland) und endete am 5. April 2010 in Punta Arenas (Chile). Die Expedition hatte primär geophysikalische und geologische Forschungsziele, die die vorglaziale und glaziale Entwicklung der Westantarktis entschlüsseln helfen sollen. Des weiteren wurden ozeanographische, geodätische, biogeochemische und plankton-biologische Projekte sowie ein Programm zur Beobachtung von Meeressäugern und Vögeln durchgeführt.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die 70 Jahre umfassende Zeitspanne, welche in dieser Untersuchung mit der Österreich-Ungarischen Nordpolarexpedition von 1872/74 unter Carl Weyprecht beginnt, war von umfassenden Veränderungen im sozialen Leben, der sozialen Sicherheit, Hierarchie, wissenschaftlichen und technischen Entwicklungen sowie von politischen Grenzsituationen gekennzeichnet. Die Polarexpeditionen im "Heroic age" fanden ihren Höhepunkt im Wettlauf zu den Polen und wurden von der Öffentlichkeit entweder als nationaler Sieg oder nationale Niederlage wahrgenommen. Wissenschaftliche Bestrebungen traten in den Hintergrund ebenso der Blick auf die sozialen Bedingungen welche manchmal über Erfolg oder Misserfolg einer Expedition entschieden aber doch immer Einfluss auf das Befinden aller Beteiligten hatte. Sozialgeschichte, oder "Geschichte von unten", ist oft nur am Rande Gegenstand von wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen. Diese Dissertation beginnt diese Lücke zu füllen, indem teilweise unbekannte und unveröffentlichte Quellen, wie Tagebücher und Schiffsjournale, aber auch bereits publiziertes Material näher untersucht wurden. Die Schwerpunkte der Untersuchung waren folgende Expeditionen: Weyprecht (1872 - 1874), Drygalski (1901 - 1903), Filchner (1911 - 1912) und Wegener (1930 -1931). Neben diesen Expeditionen wurden auch andere in- und ausländische Expeditionen derselben Periode zum Vergleich herangezogen. Folgende unbekannte Quellen wurden beispielsweise bearbeitet: Die Tagebücher des Matrosen und Eislotsen Björvik, gefolgt von den Tagebüchern Dr. Gazerts, welche unbekannte Details der Drygalski-Expedition als auch der Filchner-Expedition aus der Sicht eines einfachen Expeditionsmitgliedes und eines wissenschaftlichen Mitgliedes enthüllen. Diese Informationen geben Auskunft über die Hierarchie und daraus resultierende interne Konflikte, welche den unterschiedlichen Verlauf beider Expeditionen erklärt. Es war ebenso möglich die finanzielle Absicherung wie Einkommen, Versicherungsgebaren und Vergünstigungen zu untersuchen, welche auf die Teilnahme und Karriere nach der Expedition Einfluss nehmen konnte. Neue Einsichten zur Auswahl der Teilnehmer konnten gewonnen werden, die nicht immer von den Fähigkeiten sondern von nationalen und persönlichen Faktoren abhängig sein konnten. Weitere Aspekte wurden untersucht, wie Gesundheit, Verpflegung, Selbstmord und Tod, was nicht immer vordergründig Einfluss während der Expedition ausübte sondern erst danach auf Mitglieder oder die Öffentlichkeit Auswirkungen zeigte. Weiters, und Bezug nehmend auf die vorher genannten Punkte, wird die Frage behandelt, welchen Einfluss die Führungsqualitäten auf das Befinden der Expeditionsmitglieder ausübten. Schlussendlich werden Ergebnisse aufgezeigt, wie sich soziale Gegebenheiten auf das Alltagsleben in polarer Umgebung auswirkten, was nicht nur ein Bild der damaligen Zeit reflektiert sondern auch auf heutige Expeditionen angewendet werden kann.

    Description / Table of Contents: In polar habitats, research on marine mammals including studies of the possible ecological consequences of anthropogenic impact is hampered by adverse climate conditions restricting human access to these regions. Marine mammals are known to produce sound in various behavioural contexts, rendering (hydro-)acoustic recording techniques, which are quasi-omnidirectional and independent of light and weather conditions, an apt tool for year round monitoring of marine mammal presence and behaviour in polar habitats. Acoustic behaviour is shaped by the species-specific behavioural ecology, as well as by abiotic, biotic and anthropogenic factors of the animal's living environment, a concept known as acoustic ecology. Acoustic ecology thereby describes the interaction between an animal and its environment as mediated through sound. An understanding of the acoustic ecology is important when interpreting acoustic data, as the acoustic ecology of a species determines if physical presence results in acoustic presence, on which temporal scale acoustic activity occurs and over which spatial scales acoustic presence can be detected. This thesis comprises ten manuscripts/papers, which are based on acoustic data collected in the Southern and Arctic Oceans. All provide examples of how aspects of the acoustic ecology of the species shape acoustic behaviour. In addition, the majority of manuscripts/papers also illustrate how acoustic monitoring can provide information of physical presence of marine mammals in areas where prolonged visual observations are not possible. Acoustic ecology forms the overarching concept that braces these publications. Given the relatively sparse literature on this concept with respect to marine mammals, this synopsis includes a first detailed conceptual description of acoustic ecology for polar habitats. Particular emphasis thereby is given to the specific environmental conditions in polar habitats and the looming threats of climatic change and other anthropogenic influences

    Description / Table of Contents: This chapter is the ninth to be released in U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1386, Satellite Image Atlas of Glaciers of the World, a series of 11 chapters. In each of the geographic area chapters, remotely sensed images, primarily from the Landsat 1, 2, and 3 series of spacecraft, are used to analyze the specific glacierized region of our planet under consideration and to monitor glacier changes. Landsat images, acquired primarily during the middle to late 1970s and early 1980s, were used by an international team of glaciologists and other scientists to study various geographic regions and (or) to discuss related glaciological topics. In each glacierized geographic region, the present areal distribution of glaciers is compared, wherever possible, with historical information about their past extent. The atlas provides an accurate regional inventory of the areal extent of glacier ice on our planet during the 1970s as part of a growing international scientific effort to measure global environmental change on the Earth's surface.The chapter is divided into seven geographic parts and one topical part: Glaciers of the Former Soviet Union (F-1), Glaciers of China (F-2), Glaciers of Afghanistan (F-3), Glaciers of Pakistan (F-4), Glaciers of India (F-5), Glaciers of Nepal (F-6), Glaciers of Bhutan (F-7), and the Paleoenvironmental Record Preserved in Middle-Latitude, High-Mountain Glaciers (F-8). Each geographic section describes the glacier extent during the 1970s and 1980s, the benchmark time period (1972-1981) of this volume, but has been updated to include more recent information.

    Description / Table of Contents: This much revised and expanded edition provides a valuable and detailed summary of the many uses of diatoms in a wide range of applications in the environmental and earth sciences. Particular emphasis is placed on the use of diatoms in analyzing ecological problems related to climate change, acidification, eutrophication, and other pollution issues. The chapters are divided into sections for easy reference, with separate sections covering indicators in different aquatic environments. A final section explores diatom use in other fields of study such as forensics, oil and gas exploration, nanotechnology, and archeology. Sixteen new chapters have been added since the first edition including introductory chapters on diatom biology and the numerical approaches used by diatomists. The extensive glossary has also been expanded and now includes over 1000 detailed entries, which will help non-specialists to use the book effectively

    Description / Table of Contents: Murry Salby's new book provides an integrated treatment of the processes controlling the Earth-atmosphere system developed from first principles through a balance of theory and applications. This book builds on Salby's previous book Fundamentals of Atmospheric Physics. The scope has been expanded to include climate, while streamlining the presentation for undergraduates in scinece, mathematics, and engineering. Advanced material, suitable for graduate students and researchers, has been retained but distingushed from the basic development. The book offers a conceptual yet quantitative understanding of the controlling influences integrated through theory and major applications. It leads readers through a methodical development of the diverse physical processes that shape weather, global energetics, and climate. End-of-chapter problems of varying difficulty develop student knowledge and ist quanitative application, supported by answers and detailed solutions online for instructors.

    Description / Table of Contents: The Arctic is subject to growing economic and political interest. Meanwhile, its water and climate systems are in rapid transformation. Relevant and accessible information about water and climate is therefore vital to detect, understand and adapt to the changes. This thesis investigates hydrological monitoring systems, climate model data, and our understanding of hydro-climatic change, for adaptation to water system changes in the Arctic. Results indicate a lack of harmonized water chemistry data, which may impede efforts to understand transport and origin of key waterborne constituents. Further development of monitoring cannot rely only on a reconciliation of observations and projections on where climate change will be the most severe, as they diverge in this regard. Climate model simulations of drainage basin temperature and precipitation have improved between two recent model generations, but large inaccuracies remain for precipitation projections. Late 20th-century discharge changes in major Arctic rivers generally show excess of water relative to precipitation changes. This indicates a possible contribution of stored water from permafrost or groundwater to sea level rise. The river contribution to the increasing Arctic Ocean freshwater inflow matches that of glaciers, which underlines the importance of considering all sources when assessing change. To provide adequate information for research and policy, Arctic hydrological and hydrochemical monitoring needs to be extended, better integrated and made more accessible. This especially applies to hydrochemistry monitoring, where a more complete set of monitored basins is motivated, including a general extension for the large unmonitored areas close to the Arctic Ocean. Improvements in climate model parameterizations are needed, in particular for precipitation projections. Finally, further water-focused data and modeling efforts are required to resolve the source of excess discharge in Arctic rivers.

    Description / Table of Contents: This handbook provides the first comprehensive review of measurement principles, instruments and processing techniques for airborne observation of the earth's atmosphere and surface. For each field, the major prinicples of measurement are presented and illustrated with commonly-used airborne instruments, to assess the present capabilities in terms of accuracy, to raise awareness of specific issues with the interpretation of measurements from airborne operations, and to review emerging measurement techniques. The authors are internationally-recognized experts in their field, who actively contribute to the design and developement of modern airborne instrumentation and processing techniques. While primarily intended for climate, geophysical and atmospheric researchers, its relevance to the solar system makes this work useful to astronomers studying planetary atmospheres with telescopes and space probes.

    Description / Table of Contents: Mit der Dynamik von Wind und Wellen, mit dem Haushalt von Wärme und Wasser befasst sich die theoretische Meteorologie. Viele Studierende haben eine Scheu vor dem Fach, weil sie die Mathematik fürchten. Aber jeder, der sich für Meteorologie und Wetter interessiert, weiß im Grunde: ohne Mathematik (und ein bisschen theoretische Physik) geht es nicht. Etliche Formeln muss man sich merken, und man muss mit ihnen arbeiten können. Michael Hantel führt interessierte LeserInnen hin zu den eigentlichen Begriffen, die hinter den Formeln stehen. Diese Begriffswelt in neuer Frische darzustellen ist sein Anliegen. Statt Übungsaufgaben bietet der Autor vorgerechnete Abschätzungen, die das Verstehen des Faches erleichtern. Das Buch ist gegliedert in die Abschnitte Strahlung, Thermodynamik, Hydrodynamik, barotrope Prozesse, Grenzschicht, barokline Prozesse und globale Haushalte. Es bietet ein Gesamtbild der theoretischen Meteorologie auf dem Niveau des Bachelor-Studienganges, und es kann auch als Grundlage für eine vertiefte Beschäftigung mit der Atmosphäre und dem Klima dienen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Auf dieser Reise wurde eine Reihe von automatisch messenden Plattformen erfolgreich getestet und eingesetzt. Diese Plattformen dienen zur Erfassung des Energie- und Materialaustausches zwischen Ozean und Atmosphäre und sind für den Einsatz auf Handels- und Forschungsschiffen (Voluntary Observing Ships VOS) geplant. Die meteorologischen Messungen dienten in erster Linie, der Aerosol-Untersuchung mit Fernerkundungsmethoden. Ziel der Untersuchungen ist die Erfassung der meridionalen Verteilung des Aerosols in der Troposphäre, des Gradienten und von Aerosol-Wolken. Ein Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) wurde eingesetzt, um die saisonalen Strömungsverhältnisse im Ozean zu erfassen und zu analysieren.Zusätzlich sollen diese Messungen als Referenz für die verankerten Systeme am Äquator auf 23°W dienen.

    Description / Table of Contents: The polar regions have experienced some remarkable environmental changes in recent decades, such as the Antarctic ozone hole, the loss of large amounts of sea ice from the Arctic Ocean and major warming on the Antarctic Peninsula. The polar regions are also predicted to warm more than any other region on Earth over the next century if greenhouse gas concentrations continue to rise. Yet trying to separate natural climate variability from anthropogenic forcing still presents many problems. This book presents a thorough review of how the polar climates have changed over the last million years and sets recent changes within a long term perspective, as determined from ice and ocean sediment cores. The approach taken is highly cross-disciplinary and the close links between the atmosphere, ocean and ice at high latitudes are stressed. The volume will be invaluable for researchers and advanced students in polar science, climatology, global change, meteorology, oceanography and glaciology.

    Description / Table of Contents: High latitude terrestrial ecosystems are considered key components in the global carbon (C) cycle and hold large reservoirs of soil organic carbon (SOC). Much of this is stored as soil organic matter (SOM) in permafrost soils and peat deposits and is vulnerable to remobilization under future global warming. While the large size and potential vulnerability of arctic SOM reservoirs is recognized, detailed knowledge on its landscape partitioning and quality is poor. This thesis describes total storage, landscape partitioning and lability of SOM stored in permafrost areas of Canada and Russia. Detailed studies of SOC partitioning highlight the importance of especially permafrost peatlands, but also of O-horizons in moist tundra soils and cryoturbated soil horizons. A general characterization of SOM in an area of discontinuous permafrost shows that 〉70% of the SOC in the landscape is stored in SOM with a low degree of decomposition. Projections of permafrost thaw predict that the amount of SOC stored in the active layer of permafrost soils in this area could double by the end of this century. A lateral expansion of current thermokarst lakes by 30 m would expose comparable amounts of SOC to degradation. The results from this thesis have demonstrated the value of high-resolution studies of SOC storage. It is found that peat plateaus, common in the sporadic and discontinuous permafrost zones, store large quantities of labile SOM and may be highly susceptible to permafrost degradation, especially thermokarst, under future climate warming. Large quantities of labile SOM is also stored in cryoturbated soil horizons which may be affected by active layer warming and deepening. The current upscaling methodology is statistically evaluated and recommendations are given for the design of future studies. To accurately predict responses of periglacial C pools to a warming climate detailed studies of SOC storage and partitioning in different periglacial landscapes are needed.

    Description / Table of Contents: This is the first textbook to address all the components of the Earth's cryosphere - all forms of snow and ice, both terrestrial and marine. It provides a concise but comprehensive summary of snow cover, glaciers, ice sheets, lake and river ice, permafrost, sea ice and icebergs - their past history and projected future state. It is designed for courses at upper undergraduate and graduate level in environmental science, geography, geology, glaciology, hydrology, water resource engineering and ocean sciences. It also provides a superb up-to-date summary for researchers of the cryosphere. The book includes an extensive bibliography, numerous figures and color plates, thematic boxes on selected topics and a glossary. The book builds on courses taught by the authors for many decades at the University of Colorado and the University of Alberta. Whilst there are many existing texts on individual components of the cryosphere, no other textbook covers the whole cryosphere.

    Description / Table of Contents: The Global Carbon Cycle is a short introduction to this essential geochemical driver of the earth's climate system, written by one of the world's leading climate-science experts. In this one-of-a-kind primer, David Archer engages readers in clear and simple terms about the many ways the global carbon cycle is woven into our climate system. He begins with a concise overview of the subject, and then looks at the carbon cycle on three different time scales, describing how the cycle interacts with climate in very distinct ways in each. On million-year time scales, feedbacks in the carbon cycle stabilize earth's climate and oxygen concentrations. Archer explains how on hundred-thousand-year glacial / interglacial time scales, the carbon cycle in the ocean amplifies climate change, and how, on the human time scale of decades, the carbon cycle has been dampening climate change by absorbing fossil-fuel carbon dioxide into the oceans and land biosphere. A central question of the book is whether the carbon cycle could once again act to amplify climate change in centuries to come, for example through melting permafrost peatlands and methane hydrates. The Global Carbon Cycle features a glossary of terms, suggestions for further reading, and explanations of equations, as well as a forward-looking discussion of open questions about the global carbon cycle.

    Description / Table of Contents: Das vorliegende Werk dokumentiert die weltweit bekannten Torfmoos-Arten (Gattung Sphagnum) und enthält Bestimmungsschlüssel. Es ist die erste Gesamtdarstellung von Sphagnum seit Carl Warnstorfs "Sphagnologia Universalis" (1911). Seitdem sind, insbesondere durch Andrews, Eddy und Isoviita, zahlreiche Namen als Synonyme erkannt und revidiert worden. Diese Revisionen, sowie die rund 150 seitdem gültig neu beschriebenen Arten sind ebenso wie eigene Studien des Autors in den vorliegenden Band eingeflossen. Zur Artabgrenzung problematischer Gruppen wurden genetische Studien herangezogen. Die Torfmoose besitzen unter den Moosen eine besondere ökologische und ökonomische Bedeutung. Sie besiedeln fast alle Kontinente mit deutlichen Schwerpunkten im nördlichen Südamerika, in Nordamerika, in Ost- und Nordasien sowie Europa. Die Gattung Sphagnum steht innerhalb der Laubmoose sehr isoliert, Gemeinsamkeiten im Bau des Sporophyten deuten auf entfernte Beziehungen zu den Klaffmoosen (Klasse Andreaeopsida) hin. Zur Gliederung von Sphagnum gibt es sehr unterschiedliche Ansätze mit bis zu 4 Untergattungen und bis zu 18 möglichen Sektionen, wovon in diesem Band 13 unterschieden werden; darunter die neu aufgestellte Sektion Lapazensis. Die Torfmoose im engeren Sinne (Gattung Sphagnum) zeigen eine unter den Moosen einzigartige Kombination von Blattdimorphismus (Stamm- und Astblätter). Obwohl deshalb die Zuordnung eines Torfmooses zur Gattung Sphagnum in der Regel keine Probleme mit sich bringt, bereitet die Bestimmung bis zur Art mitunter Schwierigkeiten. Der Autor beschreibt einführend Anatomie und Morphologie von Sphagnum, darauf aufbauend erläutert er Reproduktionsbiologie und Forschungs- und Stammesgeschichte der Torfmoose. Der systematische Teil ist in drei Abschnitte gegliedert: Beschreibung und Aufschlüsselung der Sektionen, Schlüssel für alle Torfmoosarten, getrennt nach Kontinenten, sowie Sphagnum-Artenlisten für 19 Regionen der Erde. Die Schlüssel für Afrika, Europa und Nordamerika orientieren sich an vorhandenen Daten und werden unter Zuhilfenahme rezenter Beschreibungen, Artkonzepte und floristischer Daten neu beschrieben und ergänzt. Für Südamerika und Asien wurden völlig neue Schlüssel erarbeitet, weil es diese bislang nicht gab. 286 Torfmoosarten werden ausführlich neu beschrieben, ergänzt durch Daten über Habitate, geographische Verbreitung und Synonymlisten. Ergänzt wird dieser Abschnitt durch die Darstellung der inneren und äußeren Merkmale auf 194 Tafeln. Ein sehr umfangreiches Literaturverzeichnis rundet den Band ab.

    Description / Table of Contents: Once ice-bound, difficult to access, and largely ignored by the rest of the world, the Arctic is now front and center in the midst of many important questions facing the world today. Our daily weather, what we eat, and coastal flooding are all interconnected with the future of the Arctic. The year 2012 was an astounding year for Arctic change. The summer sea ice volume smashed previous records, losing approximately 75 percent of its value since 1980 and half of its areal coverage. Multiple records were also broken when 97 percent of Greenland's surface experienced melt conditions in 2012, the largest melt extent in the satellite era. Receding ice caps in Arctic Canada are now exposing land surfaces that have been continuously ice covered for more than 40,000 years. What happens in the Arctic has far-reaching implications around the world. Loss of snow and ice exacerbates climate change and is the largest contributor to expected global sea level rise during the next century. Ten percent of the world's fish catches comes from Arctic and sub-Arctic waters. The U.S. Geological Survey estimated that up to 13 percent of the world's remaining oil reserves are in the Arctic. The geologic history of the Arctic may hold vital clues about massive volcanic eruptions and the consequent release of massive amount of coal fly ash that is thought to have caused mass extinctions in the distant past. How will these changes affect the rest of Earth? What research should we invest in to best understand this previously hidden land, manage impacts of change on Arctic communities, and cooperate with researchers from other nations? The Arctic in the Anthropocene reviews research questions previously identified by Arctic researchers, and then highlights the new questions that have emerged in the wake of and expectation of further rapid Arctic change, as well as new capabilities to address them. This report is meant to guide future directions in U.S. Arctic research so that research is targeted on critical scientific and societal questions and conducted as effectively as possible. The Arctic in the Anthropocene identifies both a disciplinary and a cross-cutting research strategy for the next 10 to 20 years, and evaluates infrastructure needs and collaboration opportunities. The climate, biology, and society in the Arctic are changing in rapid, complex, and interactive ways. Understanding the Arctic system has never been more critical; thus, Arctic research has never been more important. This report will be a resource for institutions, funders, policy makers, and students. Written in an engaging style, The Arctic in the Anthropocene paints a picture of one of the last unknown places on this planet, and communicates the excitement and importance of the discoveries and challenges that lie ahead.
