This handbook presents an indispensable compilation of fundamental
facts and figures about the Earth. It brings together reliable
physical, chemical, biological and historical data in a series of
145 easy to read tables, supplemented by maps, charts and color
plates. Eleven sections cover topics spanning the Earth s
geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and biosphere, with one section
focusing on other bodies in the Solar System. Full references for
the original data sources are provided to enable users to access
further detail, and the appendix provides practical information on
units and conversion factors. Compact and easy to use, this handy
book provides a time-saving first point of reference for
researchers, students and practitioners in the Earth and
Environmental Sciences. It allows scientists easy access to basic
information on topics outside their specialization, and is also a
convenient resource for non-scientists such as economists, policy
makers and journalists.
