Global Change and Forest Soils: Cultivating Stewardship of a Finite
Natural Resource, Volume 36, provides a state-of-the-science
summary and synthesis of global forest soils that identifies
concerns, issues and opportunities for soil adaptation and
mitigation as external pressures from global changes arise. Where,
how and why some soils are resilient to global change while others
are at risk is explored, as are upcoming train wrecks and success
stories across boreal, temperate, and tropical forests. Each
chapter offers multiple sections written by leading soil scientists
who comment on wildfires, climate change and forest harvesting
effects, while also introducing examples of current global issues.
Readers will find this book to be an integrated, up-to-date
assessment on global forest soils.

A choose-your-own-adventure style gamebook that gives the reader a
choice of different quests and adventures. The book is open-ended
and provides an almost unlimited number of plot lines. You can be a
warrior, explorer, priest, wizard, thief or bard. The books in the
series are inter-connected, allowing you to travel all across the
Fabled Lands. In this volume you get to sail over the oceans,
experiencing fantastic adventures to rival those of Odysseus, Jason
and Sinbad.
Put yourself at the heart of the story...
The sole survivor of an expedition brings news of disaster. Your
twin brother is lost in the trackless western sierra where none can
survive. Resolving to find out his fate, you leave the safety of
your home far behind. Your quest will take you to lost jungle
cities, across mountains and seas, and even into the uncanny depths
of the underworld.
You will plunge into the eerie world of Mayan myth. You must
confront vengeful ghosts and bloodthirsty gods, bargain for your
life against terrifying demons, find allies and enemies among both
the living and the dead.
Then, if you are brave enough to face the dangers of the
spirit-haunted western desert, you must still confront the wizard
called Necklace of Skulls in a deadly contest whose stakes are
nothing less than your own soul.
