Ice Rivers - A Story of Glaciers, Wilderness and Humanity (Wadham Jemma)(Paperback / softback)

The story of one woman's passion for glaciers As one of the world's leading glaciologists, Professor Jemma Wadham has devoted her career to the glaciers that cover one-tenth of the Earth's land surface. Today, however, these 'ice rivers' are in peril. High up in the Alps, Andes and Himalaya, once-indomitable glaciers are retreating; in Antarctica, meanwhile, thinning ice sheets are releasing meltwater to sensitive marine foodwebs, and may be unlocking vast quantities of methane stored deep beneath them. The potential consequences for humanity are almost unfathomable. Jemma's first encoun Ice Rivers - Jemma Wadham od authora Jemma Wadham a nakladatelství za skvělé ceny na e-shopu Martinus.cz
