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.

Put yourself at the heart of the story...
Your life is in danger from a powerful enemy. Jafar, advisor to
the Caliph, is plotting a coup that will put him on the throne of
Baghdad. You are the only one who knows his secret. Only you can
warn the Caliph. But who will listen to a penniless adventurer?
Even to venture out of hiding would be to risk death from the
assassins who are scouring the city night and day to find you.
There is one hope. Fame and fortune would give you the means to
expose Jafar's treachery. Striking out from the city, your travels
take you to the furthest corners of the world. You will encounter
ghoul-haunted oases, magical palaces, lost cities of gold, and
uncharted isles full of mystery and danger. Threatened by bandits,
fire wizards, thieves and fearsome creatures, you must risk all in
your determined quest to save the kingdom.
