Cover In many places, including within and around protected areas, charcoal production is an important livelihood activity for local communities. It is also one of the major causes of deforestation. This exemplifies the conflicts and tensions that exist between the protection of natural ecosystems and the exploitation of ever-diminishing natural resources, and the need to strike a balance between conservation and sustainable development. This and many related matters will be explored at the IUCN World Parks Congress in Sydney, Australia, in November. The theme of the Congress is Parks, people, planet: inspiring solutions. This issue of Oryx marks the Congress, with a section of articles on Conservation in Protected Areas (see pp. 469–470 and 496–554). (Photograph © Jabruson/NaturePL.com)

Intergovernmental Panel on climate change

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was established by the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Programme to provide an authoritative international

statement of scientific understanding of climate change. The IPCC’s periodic assessments of the causes, impacts, and possible response strategies to climate change are the most comprehensive and up-to-date reports available on the subject and form the standard reference for all concerned with climate change in academia, government, and industry worldwide. Through three Working Groups, many hundreds of international experts assess climate change in this Fifth Assessment Report. The Report consists of three main volumes under the umbrella title Climate Change 2013/2014, all available from Cambridge University Press:

Climate Change 2013 – The Physical Science Basis Working Group I Contribution to the Fifth Assessment Report of the IPCC

Climate Change 2014 – Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability Working Group II Contribution to the Fifth Assessment Report of the IPCC

Climate Change 2014 – Mitigation of Climate Change Working Group III Contribution to the Fifth Assessment Report of the IPCC

Climate Change 2014 – Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability is the part of the IPCC assessment focused on the question, why does climate change matter? The report considers:

• Impacts of climate changes that have already occurred and risks of future impacts• Vulnerabilities and interactions that make some climate events devastating, while others pass with little notice• Risks of climate change impacts for the health and security of people and ecosystems across the regions of the

Earth, including the oceans and the poles• Risks of climate change impacts for human activities, from agriculture and manufacturing to recreation• Relationships among risks of climate change impacts, the amount of climate change that occurs, and

investments in adaptation to climate changes that cannot be avoided• Regional and sectoral key risks and vulnerabilities• Prospects for adaptation, including opportunities, barriers, and financing• Broad dimensions of a climate change “solution-space,” with an emphasis on cost-effective, iterative risk

management that yields benefits for sustainable development as well as climate change adaptation.

This latest assessment of the IPCC will again form the standard scientific reference for all those concerned with the environmental and social consequences of climate change, including students and researchers across the natural and social sciences, scholars in the humanities, professionals in medicine and law, and practitioners in environmental planning, resource management, development, disaster risk reduction, and adaptation. It provides relevant material for decision makers and stakeholders at all levels of government, NGOs, and the private sector worldwide.

[Endorsement quotes: to be inserted here]

This textbook on atmospheric thermodynamics is for students majoring in

meteorology or atmospheric science. It also serves as a reference text for

working professionals in meteorology and weather forecasting.

The book is both mathematically and physically rigorous, while also showing

how the principles derived from theory are applied to real world problems

relevant to up-and-coming weather forecasters and other atmospheric scientists.

The book develops theory from fi rst principles, such as the gas laws of Gay

Lussac, the Ideal Gas Law, and the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics.

It then derives many quantities from these basic principles, such as specifi c

heat and adiabatic processes. The mathematical development is thorough and

calculus-based. A unique feature of this particular textbook on atmospheric

thermodynamics is that it presents many examples of applications in practical

meteorology, weather analysis, and forecasting, using both numerical

calculations using the derived equations, and graphical calculations using

thermodynamic diagrams. Worked examples and practice problems are

included throughout.

The Renaissance of Renewable Energy

Gian Andrea PagnoniStephen Roche

Pagnoni and Roche

ENDORSEMENT QUOTES: TO COME

One of the most important issues facing humanity today is the prospect of global climate change, brought about primarily by our heavy dependence on fossil fuels. Continuing to use the present mix of fuels as the world economy and population grow will lead to very serious consequences. Changing course requires that we switch to more renewable and sustainable sources of energy.

This book provides detailed yet easily understandable information about sustainable energy alternatives in the context of growing public concern about climate change, the impending fuel crisis and environmental degradation. It deals with the history of energy use and the factors that have led to the current interest in energy alternatives and assesses the chances of renewable energy replacing fossil fuels in the future.

The authors manage to make a highly complex and often intimidating subject not only accessible but also engaging and entertaining. This book unpacks but never simplifies the science of energy, leavening the more technical passages with anecdotes, metaphors, examples and imagery. By also dealing with the history, politics and economics of energy use, it offers both scientific and non-scientific readers a deeper understanding of one of

the most important issues of our age.

ENDORSEMENT QUOTES: TO COMEOur energy use and its consequences (including climate change) motivate some of the most contentious and complex public debates of our time. Although these issues are often cast

in terms of renewable versus nonrenewable energy, in reality both depend on finite Earth resources. The evolution of the Earth itself therefore offers a uniquely illuminating perspective

from which to evaluate alternative pathways toward energy and environmental sustainability. Geofuels: Energy and the Earth systematically develops this perspective using informal, nontechnical language laced with humor. It is well suited to a broad readership, ranging from beginning university students to lifelong learners who are interested in how the Earth’s past will influence their own future. It also provides simplified explanations of controversial topics, such as energy return on energy investment, peak oil, and fracking. The focus throughout

is on building a sound physical understanding of how natural resources constrain our use of energy.

Alan R. Carroll, University of Wisconsin, Madison

Author of Geofuels

A unique overview of energy sustainability, this book is built around the theme that

all renewable and nonrenewable energy systems ultimately depend on Earth’s finite

geologic resources. It is written in an informal and often humorous style, aimed at a broad,

nontechnical audience ranging from undergraduate students to lifelong learners.

Authors of Smart Grid (R)Evolution

How to create electricity systems to promote renewable energy, integrate citizen

desires and support reliability? While smart grid has become a catch-all phrase

to describe the future electric system, it masks critical social and cultural debates

surrounding electricity system change. Questions of privacy, power, and control

make the exploration of smart grid appealing to some and frightening to others

David P. Stone, Former Chair of the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP)

Author of The Changing Arctic Environment

This accessible and engagingly written book describes how scientific monitoring

built our present understanding of Arctic environmental change, and how this

led to successful international legal actions to lessen some of the environmental

impacts. One issue, the unprecedented warming now occurring in the Arctic,

impacts us all but still awaits action. David Stone was intimately involved in

many of these scientific and political activities. He tells a powerful story.

NThe term “smart grid” has become a catch-all phrase to represent the potential benefi ts

of a revamped and more sophisticated electricity system that can fulfi ll several societal

expectations related to enhanced energy effi ciency and sustainability. Smart grid prom-

ises to enable improved energy management by utilities and by consumers, to provide the

ability to integrate higher levels of variable renewable energy into the electric grid, to support

the development of microgrids, and to engage citizens in energy management. However, it also

comes with potential pitfalls, such as increased cybersecurity vulnerabilities and privacy risks.

Although discussions about smart grid have been dominated by consideration of technical and

economic dimensions, this book takes a sociotechnical systems perspective to explore critical

questions shaping energy system transitions. It will be invaluable for advanced students, academ-

ic researchers, and energy professionals in a wide range of disciplines, including energy studies,

environmental and energy policy, environmental science, sustainability science, and electrical

and environmental engineering.

JENNIE C. STEPHENS is an Associate Professor and the Blittersdorf Professor of Sustainability

Science and Policy at the University of Vermont’s Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural

Resources and its College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences. Jennie’s research, teaching,

and community engagement focus on the sociopolitical aspects of energy technology innova-

tion, electricity system change, and climate change communication. She has contributed to the

understanding of the social dynamics of wind power, carbon capture and storage, and smart grid,

and she brings to this project experience in stakeholder engagement and communication with

experts, academics, and the public. She is particularly interested in facilitating social learning

as we transition away from fossil fuel–based energy systems toward renewables-based systems.

ELIZABETH J. WILSON is Associate Professor of Energy and Environmental Policy and Law at

the Humphrey School of Public Affairs and a Fellow at the Institute on the Environment, both at

the University of Minnesota. Elizabeth brings to this project extensive knowledge of the impor-

tance of subnational factors in shaping energy policy and technology deployment, with a special

focus on policies, regulatory and legal frameworks for emerging energy technologies in states,

and regional transmission organizations. Her research has also focused on regulatory and gover-

nance systems for carbon capture and sequestration, energy effi ciency, and wind power.

TARLA RAI PETERSON is Professor of Environmental Communication at the Swedish University

of Agricultural Sciences and holds the Boone and Crockett Chair of Wildlife and Conservation

Policy at Texas A&M University. Tarla Rai has published several books and numerous articles

on the intersections between communication, policy, and democratic practice, particularly as

these intersections relate to science and technology. Her most recent book, The Housing Bomb,

explores these intersections as they relate to public participation in development of policy that

could enhance sustainability. She brings to this project extensive theoretical and critical exper-

tise on public perceptions of environmental issues and technologies and the critical role of both

mediated and interpersonal communication in the practice of democracy among members of a

pluralistic society.

The Changing Arctic Enviro

nment

After several thousands of years of relative stability, the Arctic environment is

undergoing change at an unprecedented speed. Nearly all of the stresses and

changes imposed on the Arctic since the industrial revolution have been caused

by human activity outside of the Arctic, and most have involved the transport of

pollutants through the atmosphere. This has led to the paradox that in a superfi cially

pristine environment, people and animals at the top of the food chain carry some

of the highest levels of toxic chemicals measured anywhere on the planet (such

as certain radionuclides; mercury; persistent organic pollutants, including PCBs;

and a number of pesticides). In addition, the Arctic is now warming at more

than twice the rate of the rest of the planet, and changes in the Arctic are already

impacting the climate in other parts of the globe. We should be very concerned

about the implications wherever we live.This accessible and engagingly written book describes how national and international

scientifi c monitoring programmes brought to light our present understanding of

Arctic environmental change and how these research results were successfully used

to achieve international legal actions to lessen some of the resulting environmental

impacts. David P. Stone was intimately involved in many of the scientifi c and political

bodies that have taken action on environmental issues in the Arctic. He tells a

powerful story, using the metaphor of the ‘Arctic Messenger’ – an imaginary being

warning us of the folly of ignoring Arctic environmental change.This book will be of great interest to anyone concerned about the fate of the Arctic,

including lifelong learners interested in the Arctic and the natural environment

generally; students studying environmental science and policy; researchers of

circumpolar studies, indigenous peoples, national and international environmental

management, and environmental law; and policy makers and industry professionals

looking to protect (or exploit) Arctic resources.

TEXTBOOK

Essentials of the Earth’s Climate SystemRoger G. BarryUniversity of Colorado Boulder

and Eileen A. Hall-McKimUniversity of Colorado Boulder

Concise, non-mathematical, full-color introduction to modern climatology, covering the key topics of climate science for intermediate undergraduate students.

‘This delightful and readable textbook covers all the topics – and then some – likely to comprise an introductory or intermediate-level college course … Discussions of the forcing, form, and function of the climate system – on scales ranging from local to global – will be essential reading for university undergraduate and graduate students alike, and a helpful review for seasoned researchers in the climate and atmospheric sciences.

Birds and Climate ChangeImpacts and Conservation ResponsesJames W. Pearce-HigginsBritish Trust for Ornithology, Norfolk

and Rhys E. GreenUniversity of Cambridge

Providing a single source of information for students, scientists, practitioners and policy-makers, this is a critical review of the impacts of climate change on global bird populations. The authors review the potential for future impacts and consider

how conservationists should respond to these threats.

‘Over twenty years ago, when I first became interested in the impacts of climate change on wild plants and animals, the literature was limited and the field wide open. Now it is very hard to keep up. This marvellous book is exactly what I need to feel on top of the subject once more, and needs to be read not just by ornithologists, but by all ecologists struggling to understand and predict the impacts of climate change on the living world. The authors are two world-leaders on the impacts of climate change on birds. The text summarises the effects of climate change that have already happened, seeks to predict what we can expect in the future, and considers what conservation biologists can do to mitigate its effects. The coverage is comprehensive, and skilfully distils a large and complicated literature into a compelling … narrative.’John Lawton, Chairman, Yorkshire Wildlife Trust and Vice-President, RSPB

TEXTBOOK

Physics of the Atmosphere and ClimateSecond editionMurry L. SalbyMacquarie University, Sydney

Murry Salby’s textbook provides an integrated treatment of processes controlling the Earth-atmosphere system for students and researchers.

‘The first edition is a classic. As a textbook it is unequalled in breadth, depth and lucidity. It is the single volume that I recommend to every one of my students in atmospheric science. The new edition improves over the previous edition, if that is possible at all, in three aspects: beautiful illustrations of global processes … from newly available satellite data, new topics of current interest … and a new chapter on the influence of the ocean on the atmosphere. These changes make the book more useful as a starting point for studying climate change.’Professor Yuk Yung, California Institute of Technology

Contents: 1. The Earth-atmosphere system; 2. Thermodynamics of gases; 3. The second law and its implications; 4. Heterogeneous systems; 5. Transformations of moist air; 6. Hydrostatic equilibrium; 7. Static stability; 8. Radiative transfer; 9. Aerosol and cloud; 10. Atmospheric motion; 11. Atmospheric equations of motion; 12. Large-scale motion; 13. The planetary boundary layer; 14. Atmospheric waves; 15. The general circulation; 16. Dynamic stability; 17. Influence of the ocean; 18. Interaction with the stratosphere.2012 253 x 215 mm 718pp 371 b/w illus.  4 tables  296 exercises   978-0-521-76718-7 Hardback

Beyond Smoke and MirrorsClimate Change and Energy in the 21st CenturySecond editionBurton RichterStanford University, California

Global climate change is one of the most important issues humanity faces today. This updated, second edition assesses the sensible, senseless and biased proposals for averting the potentially disastrous consequences of global warming, allowing the reader to draw their own conclusions on switching to more sustainable energy provision. Burton Richter is a Nobel Prize-winning scientist who has served on many US and international review committees on climate change and energy issues. He provides a concise overview of our knowledge and uncertainties within climate change science, discusses current energy demand and supply patterns, and the energy options available to cut emissions of greenhouse gases. Written in non-technical language, this book

presents a balanced view of options for moving from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels into a much more sustainable energy system, and is accessible to a wide range of readers without scientific backgrounds – students, policymakers and the concerned citizen.

Review of previous edition: ‘… a wonderfully balanced overview. It opens with a fine summary of the science linking carbon to climate … provides a concise primer on the economics of long-term climate policy, and concludes with a short, sensible, and well-argued set of opinions and policy recommendations.’Physics Today

Global Environmental ConstitutionalismJames R. MayWidener University School of Law, Delaware

and Erin DalyWidener University School of Law, Delaware

Reflecting a global trend, scores of countries have affirmed that their citizens are entitled to healthy air, water and land, and that their constitution should guarantee environmental rights. This book examines the increasing recognition that the environment is a subject for protection in constitutional

texts and for vindication by constitutional courts.

‘In their new book, May and Daly rigorously and comprehensively analyze one of the most remarkable developments in constitutional and environmental law in the past fifty years: the explosion of constitutional environmental rights. They clarify every aspect of this sea change in the law and provide an indispensable resource for anyone interested in constitutional law or environmental law.’John H.

Greening the GlobeWorld Society and Environmental ChangeAnn HironakaUniversity of California, Irvine

Globalization has moved us toward becoming a world society with a common culture. Greening the Globe argues that international efforts to address environmental problems are often successful in the long run by setting the political agenda, by empowering environmental groups and citizens, and by changing our perceptions of environmental problems.

‘Greening the Globe applies the world society perspective to understand the emergence and institutionalization of an international environmental regime. But Hironaka goes beyond policy diffusion to examine actual changes in environmental outcomes. This is a must-read for scholars interested in global social change dynamics regardless of their theoretical orientation.’Francisco Ramirez, Stanford University, California

The Moral Challenge of Dangerous Climate ChangeValues, Poverty, and PolicyDarrel MoellendorfJohann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität Frankfurt

This book examines the threat that climate change poses to projects of poverty eradication, sustainable development, and biodiversity preservation. It discusses the values that support these projects and evaluates the normative bases of climate change policy. This book regards climate change policy as a public problem that normative philosophy can shed light on.

‘This book is a penetrating and comprehensive first effort to tackle a largely unacknowledged but supremely important moral dilemma. It is a unique contribution to advancing the literature on climate change and shows the importance of our necessary initiatives to exit the fossil fuel regime by raising prices to decrease demand and to create a direct threat to the only source of energy now affordable to many of the world’s poorest struggling for sustainable development.’Henry Shue, Centre for International Studies, University of Oxford

Environmental MarketsA Property Rights ApproachTerry L. AndersonProperty and Environment Research Center

and Gary D. LibecapUniversity of California, Santa Barbara

Environmental Markets explains the prospects of using markets to improve environmental quality and resource conservation. It compares standard approaches to environmental problems

using governmental management, regulation, taxation, and subsidization with a market-based property rights approach. This approach is applied to land, water, wildlife, fisheries, and air and is compared to governmental solutions.

‘Two of the world’s leading scholars on property rights and the environment offer a timely reminder that government is not always an effective steward of natural resources when markets fail at this task, and offer a rich review of the myriad creative ways in which market forces can be harnessed to improve environmental quality. The book’s fresh perspective on the question of how best to solve problems ranging from climate change to overfishing reminds economists and their students to ‘look before they leap’, with regulation as a solution.’Sheila M. Olmstead, University of Texas, Austin

Sustainability in the Global CityMyth and PracticeEdited by Cindy IsenhourUniversity of Maine, Orono

Gary McDonoghBryn Mawr College, Pennsylvania

and Melissa CheckerQueens College, City University of New York

Urban sustainability has become integral to urban planning and policy making globally, but we know little about its practical consequences for everyday life, cultural change, and social justice. The contributors to this unique volume look beyond sustainability’s promises and propaganda to explore its diverse human meanings and practices.

Advance praise: ‘Urban policy makers focused on sustainability often ignore the growth of eco-apartheid in their own cities. The contributors to this invaluable book confront the issue head-on, through exhaustive ethnographic research, and show us how and why environmental justice is the key to a green urban future.’Andrew Ross, author of Bird on Fire: Lessons from the World’s Least Sustainable City

Cover In many places, including within and around protected areas, charcoal production is an important livelihood activity for local communities. It is also one of the major causes of deforestation. This exemplifies the conflicts and tensions that exist between the protection of natural ecosystems and the exploitation of ever-diminishing natural resources, and the need to strike a balance between conservation and sustainable development. This and many related matters will be explored at the IUCN World Parks Congress in Sydney, Australia, in November. The theme of the Congress is Parks, people, planet: inspiring solutions. This issue of Oryx marks the Congress, with a section of articles on Conservation in Protected Areas (see pp. 469–470 and 496–554). (Photograph © Jabruson/NaturePL.com)
