Earth's Dynamic Systems: The Cryosphere
Earth's Frozen RealmBy Aira Astralis
Length1h 43m
About this audiobook
A tour of Earth's frozen realm, from the physics of a snowflake through sea ice, glaciers, the great ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica, permafrost's carbon ledger, and the ice-core archive of ancient air, to the albedo feedbacks, rising seas, polar life, and the measured retreat of the whole white Earth. No equations, for curious readers.
