Underwater Odyssey – Sick & Injured Marine Animals Tell Their Stories by Krista M. Dunlop Author, Speaker & Professional Scuba Diver Krista Dunlop Hello, and welcome to Underwater Odyssey. As a professional scuba diver since 1994, I have a unique perspective of the underwater world and the environmental crisis we adults have caused. When I’m scuba diving and I see a turtle’s face mutilated by a boat propeller, or see what was once a beautiful coloured coral reef now bleached white, or see a dolphin calf’s tail that has fallen off because it had gotten so tightly wrapped up in a crab trap line … all that comes to my mind is … what have we done. Then I find myself clearing my mask … to wash away my tears. As a professional scuba diver, I believe it is my personal responsibility to be a guardian of our blue planet and to remind children and adults of all that the underwater world has given us … human survival, beauty and marine animal friendships. This is a cause that I am personally and professionally passionate about. Through my business communications company, Krista Dunlop & Associates Inc. (www.kdainc.ca), I decided to sponsor a Corporate Environmental Awareness Educational Initiative – Underwater Odyssey (www.underwaterodyssey.ca)- as a means to help preserve our blue planet. Our vision is to shape the young reader’s experience so that children can find order, meaning, and beauty on our blue planet. We carefully nurture young children’s imaginations, providing windows through which they can look into their world and empower them to voice their environmental concerns. Krista Dunlop & Associates Inc. believes the future of our environmental world rests in the hands of our young children. Through the creation of our Underwater Odyssey publication series, we address our corporate responsibility as their guardians in helping to resolve our present day environmental issues.

Skye’s Secret Mission by Lucy Daniel Raby An exciting prequel to the sci fi fantasy adventure ‘Goddess in Pyjamas’, set on a faraway planet on the other side of the universe, where creatures like mermaids and winged humans are real! When Skye discovers an evil Chagrinian plot to assassinate their spiritual leader’s current re-incarnation on Earth, he decides to carry out a daring rescue mission through space and time. ‘the minute he woke up, Skye knew something was wrong with today, or at least, that something was going to be wrong with today, at some point – This is how it all began. Ventura is winner of ‘Most Beautiful Planet in the Universe’ award several centuries running. It has three moons, a huge sun that never stops shining and a population of strange hybrid species from earth’s ancient mythology. Here things like mermaids, many armed people and winged humans are real! Time moves faster, landscapes shift, and evolution has happened very differently from planet earth. Ventura is a perfect world of peace and harmony, where all the tribes live happily together, but that’s all about to change! That morning Skye wakes up to find that an urgent dawn meeting of all the Tribal Leaders has been called by Queen Andromeda, ruler of the Northern Hemisphere of Nimrovia. The Chagrinians – the evil reptilian race who were banished to the shores of the underground ocean after assassinating Ventura’s spiritual leader, Sunev – have risen again from the deep and conquered the Southern Hemisphere of Vardin. Panic breaks out at the announcement that they are planning to invade and conquer Nimrovia too! The Chags are coming and they are going to take over this world! Skye, a Monrovian boy whose parents are close advisors to the Queen, is warned by his Uncle Tilmo, a Monrovian who converted himself into a Merman – that Sunev’s life is in danger again. He was re-incarnated as a human on earth and is now aged about 13, (in earth years that is). Skye is told by his parents that Sunev can’t be brought back before the end of his natural lifespan and is ordered to stay out of it, he is only a child. But Skye knows that the future of his planet is in peril. Plucking up his courage and disobeying authority, he borrows his mother’s interplanetary spacepod and sets off on a daring rescue mission to Earth. He intends to save Sunev from annihilation by the Chags, and bring their Supreme Being in current human form back to Ventura to save their world! He has a big surprise when he gets there – Sunev is not what he expected at all.

5 Free Science Ebooks These ebooks include:-
Air Pollution – New Developments by Anca Maria Moldoveanu
Today, an important issue is environmental pollution, especially air pollution. Due to pollutants present in air, human health as well as animal health and vegetation may suffer. The book can be divided in two parts. The first half presents how the environmental modifications induced by air pollution can have an impact on human health by inducing modifications in different organs and systems and leading to human pathology. This part also presents how environmental modifications induced by air pollution can influence human health during pregnancy. The second half of the book presents the influence of environmental pollution on animal health and vegetation and how this impact can be assessed (the use of the micronucleus tests on TRADESCANTIA to evaluate the genotoxic effects of air pollution, the use of transplanted lichen PSEUDEVERNIA FURFURACEA for biomonitoring the presence of heavy metals, the monitoring of epiphytic lichen biodiversity to detect environmental quality and air pollution, etc). The book is recommended to professionals interested in health and environmental issues.
Biomass and Remote Sensing of Biomass by Islam Atazadeh
Generally, the term biomass is used for all materials originating from photosynthesis. However, biomass can equally apply to animals. Conservation and management of biomass is very important. There are various ways and methods for biomass evaluation. One of these methods is remote sensing. Remote sensing provides information about biomass, but also about biodiversity and environmental factors estimation over a wide area. The great potential of remote sensing has received considerable attention over the last few decades in many different areas in biological sciences including nutrient status assessment, weed abundance, deforestation, glacial features in Arctic and Antarctic regions, depth sounding of coastal and ocean depths, and density mapping. The salient features of the book include: Several aspects of biomass study and survey Use of remote sensing for evaluation of biomass Evaluation of carbon storage in ecosystems Evaluation of primary productivity through case studies
Advances in Ceramics – Electric and Magnetic Ceramics, Bioceramics, Ceramics and Environment by Assoc. Costas Sikalidis
The current book consists of twenty-four chapters divided into three sections. Section I includes fourteen chapters in electric and magnetic ceramics which deal with modern specific research on dielectrics and their applications, on nanodielectrics, on piezoceramics, on glass ceramics with para-, anti- or ferro-electric active phases, of varistors ceramics and magnetic ceramics. Section II includes seven chapters in bioceramics which include review information and research results/data on biocompatibility, on medical applications of alumina, zirconia, silicon nitride, ZrO2, bioglass, apatite-wollastonite glass ceramic and b-tri-calcium phosphate. Section III includes three chapters in applications of ceramics in environmental improvement and protection, in water cleaning, in metal bearing wastes stabilization and in utilization of wastes from ceramic industry in concrete and concrete products.
Climate Change – Research and Technology for Adaptation and Mitigation by Juan Blanco And Houshang Kheradmand
This book provides an interdisciplinary view of how to prepare the ecological and socio-economic systems to the reality of climate change. Scientifically sound tools are needed to predict its effects on regional, rather than global, scales, as it is the level at which socio-economic plans are designed and natural ecosystem reacts. The first section of this book describes a series of methods and models to downscale the global predictions of climate change, estimate its effects on biophysical systems and monitor the changes as they occur. To reduce the magnitude of these changes, new ways of economic activity must be implemented. The second section of this book explores different options to reduce greenhouse emissions from activities such as forestry, industry and urban development. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that climate change can be minimized, but not avoided, and therefore the socio-economic systems around the world will have to adapt to the new conditions to reduce the adverse impacts to the minimum. The last section of this book explores some options for adaptation.
Genetic Transformation by Maria Alvarez
Genetic transformation of plants has revolutionized both basic and applied plant research. Plant molecular biology and physiology benefit from this power fool, as well as biotechnology. This book is a review of some of the most significant achievements that plant transformation has brought to the fields of Agrobacterium biology, crop improvement and, flower, fruit and tree amelioration. Also, it examines their impact on molecular farming, phytoremediation and RNAi tools.
