Access a broad range of paleoclimatic studies. Current debates regarding potential maninduced modification of climate make this volume especially timely.
 * Introductory sections address the major and minor physical controls, or drivers, that affect Earth's climate. * Several chapters describe the naturally occurring range of variation of climatic conditions and illustrate past changes in global temperatures. * Case studies show how ancient conditions are determined, as well as new techniques that have significant potential as proxies for assessing paleoclimates. * Several chapters demonstrate the magnitude and length of duration of numerous temperature variations, which occurred during geologic time periods.
 Geoscientists; life, earth, and atmospheric scientists; educators; research workers; and policymakers will appreciate having this well-timed publication.

The global distribution of water and energy is not evenly balanced. Moving into the 21st century, more attention must be placed on sustaining our quality and supply of water and conventional energy. At the same time new sources of both need to be addressed. The facts are that water and energy are separate issues but inextricably linked. Society depends upon energy, which is a global issue. Individual human survival depends upon water. Energy sustainability must be dealt with in a global context because energy resources are valuable enough to be transported to needy areas. Water supply, however, continues to be a regional or local issue, rather than a global issue. The volume of water needed in deficient areas cannot be transported to them within the modern economy. The necessity for global solutions to availability of resources increases daily and geologists have a large role to play.This book is published by the Kansas Geological Survey in association with the American Association of Petroleum Geologists and the AAPG Division of Environmental Geosciences. It provides a compilation of issues and possible resolutions ranging from improved water management practices to the potential for developing mineral resources beyond the planet Earth.
