Mass Balance of the CryosphereObservations and Modelling ofContemporary and Future ChangesEdited by Jonathan L. BamberUniversity of Bristoland Antony J. PayneUniversity of BristolForeword by John Houghton

The cryosphere comprises all the frozenwater and soil on the surface of the Earth.Mass Balance of the Cryosphere focuses ontwo key components of this environment:land ice (in the form of ice sheets, caps andglaciers) and sea ice. These componentshave been identified as importantindicators of both short and long termclimate change. Early chapters cover thetheory behind field-based and satelliteobservations, and modelling of massbalance, providing a thorough groundingin all the concepts and issues presentedlater in the book. Later chapters review ourcurrent understanding of the present andpredicted future mass balance of thecryosphere. This is an important referencefor all scientists working in the fields ofclimate change, environmental sciences andglaciology. It is written by leading authorsin the field, and is fully integrated toprovide a coherent, cross-referenced andconsistent exposition on the subject.2003 247 x 174 mm 450pp 149 line diagrams3 half-tones 16 tables0 521 80895 2 Hardback c. £75.00Publication November 2003

Desert MeteorologyThomas T. WarnerNational Center for Atmospheric Research, Boulder,Colorado

Aridity prevails over more than one-thirdof the land area of Earth, and over asignificant fraction of the oceans as well.Yet to date there has been nocomprehensive reference volume ortextbook that deals with the weatherprocesses that define the character of desertareas. Desert Meteorology fills this gap bytreating all aspects of desert weather, suchas large-scale and local-scale causes ofaridity, precipitation characteristics indeserts, dust storms and floods, climatechange in deserts, precipitation processes,desertification, the land-surface physics ofdeserts, numerical modeling of desertatmospheres, and the effect of desertweather on humans. The book includesreview questions and problems for thestudent. This comprehensive volume willsatisfy all who need to know more aboutthe weather and climate of arid lands.

Polar LowsMesoscale Weather Systems in the PolarRegionsEdited by Erik A. RasmussenUniversity of Copenhagenand John TurnerBritish Antarctic Survey, Cambridge

Polar Lows provides a comprehensivereview of our understanding of thesmall, high latitude weather systemsknown as polar lows. These often-vigorous depressions are a hazard tomaritime operations and high latitudecommunities, yet have only beeninvestigated in detail since the 1960s. Inthis volume the authors describe theclimatological distribution of these lows,the observational investigations intotheir structure, the operationalforecasting of polar lows and thetheoretical research into why theydevelop. They also discuss theexperiments carried out with highresolution numerical weather forecastmodels that have shown that some polarlows can be predicted a day or more inadvance. The book has been written bya number of experts within the field andhas been carefully edited to form anintegrated, cohesive volume. It will be ofvalue to researchers in meteorology andclimatology, as well as professionalweather forecasters concerned with polarregions.2003 247 x 174 mm 624pp 308 line diagrams131 half-tones 7 tables0 521 62430 4 Hardback £90.00

Climate Changes during theHolocene and their Impact onHydrological SystemsArie S. IssarHebrew University of Jerusalem

It is now widely accepted that increasingconcentrations of greenhouse gases in theatmosphere are causing higher globalatmospheric temperatures. However, thereis still a great deal of uncertainty about thelikely effects of such a temperature rise onclimate, and even more about the impactsof climate change and variability on theworld’s hydrological regimes and socio-economic systems. Studying the effects ofclimate variability in the past can give cluesas to possible future effects. This volumeprovides a comprehensive review of theeffects of climate variability on hydrologicaland human systems in the Holocene (thelast 10,000 years), in various parts of theworld.

Global Change and Local PlacesEstimating, Understanding, and ReducingGreenhouse GasesAssociation of American GeographersGCLP Research Team

Global Change and Local Places explores theways people and biota contribute toclimate change in four localities of theUnited States. The volume summarizes thefindings of the Global Change in LocalPlaces (GCLP) project initiated by theAssociation of American Geographers toinvestigate the contribution of local factorsto global change, how and why thesefactors change over time, and how theeffects might be controlled and mitigatedlocally. The sources and driving forces forgreenhouse gas emissions vary widelyamong the four research sites, as do thepossibilities and propensities to mitigateemissions and adapt to the local changesglobal warming could bring. Policy makersand legislators will be unable to addresshuman-induced climate change effectivelywithout the insights revealed by examiningand understanding the daily routines thatare simultaneously the sources of climatechange and the keys to reducing its severityand coping with its effects.2003 247 x 174 mm 290pp 13 line diagrams17 half-tones 56 tables 30 figures0 521 80950 9 Hardback £55.00

The Science of SustainableDevelopmentLocal Livelihoods and the GlobalEnvironmentJeffrey SayerWWF International, Switzerlandand Bruce CampbellCenter for International Forestry Research (CIFOR),Indonesia

Science faces major challenges in tacklingthe interlinked problems of poverty andenvironmental sustainability. This bookreviews how practical science can beapplied to real-life conservation anddevelopment problems, and aims to de-

mystify the sometimes obscure science ofnatural resources management, interpretingit for the benefit of those who need to dealwith the day to day problems of managingcomplex natural resource systems. Theauthors give practical guidance to thosewho design and manage conservationprogrammes and demonstrate that newtechnologies are now available that enableintegrated natural resource management tomove from a theory to a reality. They arguethat the threats to the natural environmentposed by globalisation require an integratedresponse encompassing different scales,system components, disciplines andknowledge types, and that such a responsecan yield real benefits to those living intropical developing countries, whilst alsoachieving global environment objectives. 2003 228 x 152 mm 262pp 35 line diagrams4 tables0 521 82728 0 Hardback c. £65.000 521 53456 9 Paperback c. £24.95Publication November 2003

Economic Theory and GlobalWarmingHirofumi UzawaUniversity of Tokyo

In this book, Professor Uzawa modifiesand extends the theoretical premises oforthodox economic theory to thosebroad enough to be capable of analyzingthe phenomena related toenvironmental disequilibrium,particularly global warming, and offinding institutional arrangements andpolicy measures that may bring about amore optimal state where natural andinstitutional components areharmoniously blended. He constructs atheoretical framework in which threemajor problems concerning globalenvironmental issues may effectivelyaddressed. First, all phenomenainvolved with global environmentalissues exhibit externalities of one kindor another. Secondly, globalenvironmental issues involveinternational and intergenerationalequity and justice. Thirdly, globalenvironmental issues concern themanagement of the atmosphere, theoceans, water, soil, and other naturalresources that have to be decided by aconsensus of all affected countries.2003 228 x 152 mm 292pp 5 line diagrams3 tables0 521 82386 2 Hardback £50.00Publication August 2003

Applied Environmental EconomicsA GIS Approach to Cost-benefit AnalysisIan J. BatemanUniversity of East AngliaAndrew A. LovettUniversity of East Angliaand Julii S. BrainardUniversity of East Anglia

The complex real world interactionsbetween the economy and environmentform both the focus of and main barrier toapplied research within the field of

environmental economics. However,geographical information systems (GIS)allow economists to tackle such complexityhead on by directly incorporating diversedata sets into applied research rather thanresorting to simplifying and oftenunrealistic assumptions. This innovativebook applies GIS techniques to spatialcost-benefit analysis of a complex andtopical land use change problem, theconversion of agricultural land tomultipurpose woodland, looking in detailat issues such as opportunity costs,recreation, carbon storage, etc., andembracing cross cutting themes such as theevaluation of environmental preferencesand the spatial transfer of benefit functions.

Solutions to environmental problemsdepend on impositing private-,common-, or public-property rights innatural resources.

Environmentalprotection requires multiple regimes.

‘At last we have, in Dan Cole’s carefuland comprehensive work, anintellectually honest account of the roleof property relations in pollution policy.Finally, clear thought stands a plausiblechance of trumping ideologymasquerading as analysis by lawyers andeconomists.’

Uncertain Science… UncertainWorldHenry N. PollackUniversity of Michigan, Ann Arbor

Science is full of uncertainties. Scientistsoften have more than one answer to aproblem or disagree amongstthemselves. Taking examples fromrecent science headlines and every daylife, Uncertain Science … UncertainWorld enables the reader to evaluateuncertainty from their own perspectives,and find out more about how scienceactually works.

Pre-publication praise:

‘Uncertain Science … Uncertain Worldgives the layman an excellent inside lookat how science works and flourisheseven though it is immersed inuncertainty. Pollack analyses the paradoxthat society is unable or unwilling toaddress environmental problems ofglobal scale – often under the pretencethat there’s not enough scientificcertainty to take action – while at thesame time the insurance industry andother businesses routinely hedge therisks attendant to an uncertain future.It’s my hope that this very clearlywritten book, devoid of both polemicsand equations, will be widely read bythe general public and policy-makers.’

SynchronizationA Universal Concept in Nonlinear SciencesArkady PikovskyUniversity of Potsdam, GermanyMichael RosenblumUniversity of Potsdam, Germanyand Jürgen KurthsUniversity of Potsdam, Germany

Synchronization phenomena are abundantin science, nature, engineering and sociallife. Systems as diverse as clocks, singingcrickets, cardiac pacemakers andapplauding audiences exhibit a tendency tooperate in synchrony. This comprehensivebook describes the phenomena using bothclassical results and recent developments.

‘… the authors … have pulled off a verydifficult trick, that of writing a bookthat is both a definitive introduction tosynchronization for the casual readerand a definitive text for researchersworking in a variety of fields.’
