| Title | Recurrence Quantification Analysis : Theory and Best Practices |
| Author(s) | Webber, Jr., Charles L;Marwan, Norbert |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2015. |
| Description | XIV, 421 p. 210 illus., 107 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The analysis of recurrences in dynamical systems by using recurrence plots and their quantification is still an emerging field. ??Over the past decades??recurrence plots have proven to be valuable data visualization and analysis tools in the theoretical study of complex, time-varying dynamical systems as well as in various applications in biology, neuroscience, kinesiology, psychology, physiology, engineering, physics, geosciences, linguistics, finance, economics, and other disciplines. ?? This??multi-authored book??intends to comprehensively introduce and??showcase??recent advances as well as??established best practices concerning??both theoretical and practical aspects of recurrence plot based analysis. ??Edited and authored by leading researcher??in the field, the various chapters address??an interdisciplinary readership, ranging from theoretical physicists to application-oriented scientists in all data-providing disciplines |

| Title | Climate Change Modeling Methodology : Selected Entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology |
| Author(s) | Rasch, Philip J |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2012. |
| Description | VI, 338 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The Earth's average temperature has risen by 1.4??F over the past century, and computer models project that it will rise much more over the next hundred years, with significant impacts on weather, climate, and human society. Many climate scientists attribute these increases to the buildup of greenhouse gases produced by the burning of fossil fuels and to the anthropogenic production of short-lived climate pollutants. Climate Change Modeling Methodologies: Selected Entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology provides readers with an introduction to the tools and analysis techniques used by climate change scientists to interpret the role of these forcing agents on climate.?? Readers will also gain a deeper understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of these models and how to test and assess them.?? The contributions include a glossary of key terms and a concise definition of the subject for each topic, as well as recommendations for sources of more detailed information. Features authoritative, peer-reviewed contributions on the development and use of??contemporary methods in climate change science Provides insight into the construction, assessment, and testing of climate models Covers individual component models for the atmosphere, ocean, land, and ice, and discusses their contribution to an example of climate change in monsoon systems Discusses how climate change models can shed light on the changing climate of the past and on possible shifts in the future |

| Title | The Earth's Hydrological Cycle |
| Author(s) | Bengtsson, L;Bonnet, R.-M;Calisto, M;Destouni, G;Gurney, R;Johannessen, J;Kerr, Y;Lahoz, W.A;Rast, M |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2014. |
| Description | VIII, 409 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book gives a comprehensive presentation of our present understanding of the Earth's Hydrological cycle and the problems, consequences and impacts that go with this topic. Water is a central component in the Earth's system. It is indispensable for life on Earth in its present form and influences virtually every aspect of our planet's life support system. On relatively short time scales, atmospheric water vapor interacts with the atmospheric circulation and is crucial in forming the Earth's climate zones. Water vapor is the most powerful of the greenhouse gases and serves to enhance the tropospheric temperature. The dominant part of available water on Earth resides in the oceans. Parts are locked up in the land ice on Greenland and Antarctica and a smaller part is estimated to exist as groundwater. If all the ice over the land and all the glaciers were to melt, the sea level would rise by some 80 m. In comparison, the total amount of water vapor in the atmosphere is small; it amounts to ~ 25 kg/m2, or the equivalent of 25 mm water for each column of air. Yet atmospheric water vapor is crucial for the Earth???s energy balance. The book gives an up to date presentation of the present knowledge.

| Title | Earth System Monitoring : Selected Entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology |
| Author(s) | Orcutt, John |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2013. |
| Description | VI, 518 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Modern Earth System Monitoring represents a fundamental change in the way scientists study the Earth System.?? In Oceanography, for the past two centuries, ships have provided the platforms for observing.?? Expeditions on the continents and Earth???s poles are land-based analogues. Fundamental understanding of current systems, climate, natural hazards, and ecosystems has been greatly advanced. While these approaches have been remarkably successful, the need to establish measurements over time can only be made using Earth observations and observatories with exacting standards and continuous data.?? The 19 peer-reviewed contributions in this volume provide early insights into this emerging view of Earth in both space and time in which change is a critical component of our growing??understanding. Presents 19 authoritative, peer-reviewed entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology Covers a wide range of data collection platforms, including satellite remote sensing, aerial surveys, and land- and ocean-based monitoring stations Features a glossary of key terms and a concise definition of the subject for each contribution Written for an audience of undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professionals in academia, industry, and government |

| Title | Geoengineering Responses to Climate Change : Selected Entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology |
| Author(s) | Lenton, Tim;Vaughan, Naomi |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2013. |
| Description | V, 199 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Failure by the international community to make substantive progress in reducing CO2 emissions, coupled with recent evidence of accelerating climate change, has brought increasing urgency to the search for additional remediation approaches.?? This book presents a selection of state-of-the-art geoengineering methods for deliberately reducing the effects of anthropogenic climate change, either by actively removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere or by decreasing the amount of sunlight absorbed at the Earth???s surface.?? These methods contrast with more conventional mitigation approaches which focus on reducing emissions of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide. Geoengineering technologies could become a key tool to be used in conjunction with emissions reduction to limit the magnitude of climate change.?? Featuring authoritative, peer-reviewed entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology, this book presents a wide range of climate change remediation technologies. Examines the potential of geoengineering technologies to contribute to the goal of restricting global warming to within 2??C of preindustrial levels Discusses carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and solar radiation management (SDR) Places the technologies discussed in their proper social, political, and ethical contexts Provides valuable insights for audiences ranging from researchers and?? industry experts to policy makers and university-level students |
