Tyler and Frank Knight<br /><br />Throughout much of the world, frog populations are declining and some species are disappearing totally. In Australia, several species have become extinct in the past 25 years.<br /><br />This fully illustrated guide to all the known frogs of Australia provides concise accounts of 227 species within the five main frog families: Hylidae, Limnodynastidae, Microhylidae, Myobatrachidae and Ranidae. it also includes the introduced Cane Toad and provides notes on other 'stowaway' species that have arrived in Australia.<br /><br />The text for each species includes details of size, status, distribution, habitat, behaviour and advertisement call. Each species is accompanied by a map of Australia showing its known distribution, and a full-colour painted illustration. Closely related frogs are shown in identical poses so that comparisions can be made readily. The introductory section of the book covers frog biology and habitats and includes notes on families and genera -- book cover <br /><br /><a href="mailto:library@epa.qld.gov.au&subject=Title_Field_Guide_Frogs_Australia_31315">Contact the library to request this item</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361078969711754854.post-10410720948626474472009-06-23T09:20:00.003+10:002009-06-29T08:57:10.711+10:00Australian Bats<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXT0mUOfmqBuhwKLLoJ5AOtzKbMlmb3H5NiXDn1P3gi8-uV9N3f2nVFsbKc1E3ZnjDbC1J1qcoCQ1iPwwklwmK-8mB2nCdCVhShy8IKkzOtDCjPG880QwqoZMsGx-xIeRGLROE4r5seSQ/s1600-h/australian_bats_20090622080017_00001.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 136px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXT0mUOfmqBuhwKLLoJ5AOtzKbMlmb3H5NiXDn1P3gi8-uV9N3f2nVFsbKc1E3ZnjDbC1J1qcoCQ1iPwwklwmK-8mB2nCdCVhShy8IKkzOtDCjPG880QwqoZMsGx-xIeRGLROE4r5seSQ/s200/australian_bats_20090622080017_00001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5350297702067556066" /></a><br />Sue Churchill<br /><br />2nd edition<br /><br />An identification guide to all 75 known species of Australian bats.

It has been widely used and adopted as a standard throughout Australia, providing one reference set of definitions for the characterisation of landform and vegetation and for the description of soils. The book advocates that a comprehensive suite of land and soil attributes be recorded in a uniform manner. This approach is held to be more useful than the allocation of land or soil to preconceived types or classes. Its usefulness is enhanced where computer facilities are available.

The book includes extensive endnotes with links to ongoing and updated information,as well as some new illustrations. - book jacket.<br /><a href="mailto:library@epa.qld.gov.au&subject=Title_Climate_Change_31170">Contact the library to request this item</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361078969711754854.post-13711366492193769412009-04-14T11:34:00.002+10:002009-04-14T11:37:19.170+10:00The transition handbook <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg88I4RaG8yo6VL5MChs0OtEATsh1IqlZYZvRRgtFUtWKgB1Le8-D2jiu2rSwIGbXwGyEyhCRnEbaNPKMFI0V8mUL68WAP3smJ4O22v8uDXKPbrnHS5OPoFJY2e9t1Z0UmmY5kqX4flLaw/s1600-h/transition_handbook_20090414110255_00001.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 144px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg88I4RaG8yo6VL5MChs0OtEATsh1IqlZYZvRRgtFUtWKgB1Le8-D2jiu2rSwIGbXwGyEyhCRnEbaNPKMFI0V8mUL68WAP3smJ4O22v8uDXKPbrnHS5OPoFJY2e9t1Z0UmmY5kqX4flLaw/s200/transition_handbook_20090414110255_00001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324355130595057170" /></a><br />by Rob Hopkins.<br /><br />"We live in an oil-dependent world, and have got to this level of dependency in a very short space of time, using vast reserves of oil in the process - without thinking ahead to plan for when the supply is not so plentiful. Most of us avoid thinking about what happens when oil runs out (or becomes prohibitively expensive), but The Transition Handbook shows how the inevitable and profound changes ahead can have a positive outcome. These changes can lead to the rebirth of local communities, which will grow more of their own food, generate their own power, and build their own houses using local materials. They can also encourage the development of local currencies, keeping money in the local area." "There are now over 35 formal Transition Initiatives in the UK, including towns, cities, islands, villages and peninsulas, with over 500 globally at the earlier stages of launching this process. With little proactivity at government level, communities are taking matters into their own hands and acting locally. Within peak oil and climate change is the potential for the greatest economic, social and cultural renaissance we have ever seen. If your community has not yet become a Transition Initiative, this guide offers you the tools to get started."--BOOK JACKET.<br /><a href="mailto:library@epa.qld.gov.au&subject=Title_Transition_Handbook_31169">Contact the library to request this item</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361078969711754854.post-89737814906028484942009-04-14T11:17:00.004+10:002009-04-14T11:29:01.687+10:00Australian saltmarsh ecology<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSa-kprR4xnpBIJZBhK20WH24XMszlr9fWzQDNfzajXYiKiv238Fg7ja2iYkEGbid4DxlF50dH5rB4Nl4ysoiufFqx9lxlFRV_IM4aRj_2TeYxDN_tK-X7RvcXjw7s0yX5Q0X5ndFJ5tE/s1600-h/salt_marsh_ecology_20090414110145_00001.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 137px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSa-kprR4xnpBIJZBhK20WH24XMszlr9fWzQDNfzajXYiKiv238Fg7ja2iYkEGbid4DxlF50dH5rB4Nl4ysoiufFqx9lxlFRV_IM4aRj_2TeYxDN_tK-X7RvcXjw7s0yX5Q0X5ndFJ5tE/s200/salt_marsh_ecology_20090414110145_00001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324352442222310610" /></a><br />Edited by Neil Saintilan.<br /><br />Australian Saltmarsh Ecology presents the first comprehensive review of the ecology and management of Australia saltmarshes. The past 10 years in particular have seen a sustained research effort into this previously poorly understood and neglected resource.<br />Leading experts in the field outline what is known of the biogeography and geomorphology of Australian saltmarshes, their fish and invertebrate ecology, the use of Australian saltmarshes by birds and insectivorous bats, and the particular challenges of management, including the control of mosquito pests, and the issue of sea-level rise. They provide a powerful argument that coastal saltmarsh is a unique and critical habitat vulnerable to the combined impacts of coastal development and sea-level rise.<br />The book will be an important reference for saltmarsh researchers, marine and aquatic biologists, natural resource managers, environmentalists and ecologists, as well as undergraduate students and the interested layperson.<br /><a href="mailto:library@epa.qld.gov.au&subject=Title_Australian_Saltmarsh_Ecology_31171">Contact the library to request this item</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361078969711754854.post-58768402356669021502009-03-30T08:29:00.005+10:002009-03-30T08:39:31.199+10:00The flora of North Stradbroke Island <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVGnDJPVlqS-kIUsZPpHhIMjmi6bSwM5vRb01rPyikeAhU2K7DCEpGmKZCWpY4UbyexY-H4n7LhqYvquCaH3FmAFWc6yEymCBDcf1bYDp3qUKuUWvjRcT6ypUs8LWgjjHYyzhzC27-uGc/s1600-h/flora_north_stradbroke_20090330082818_00001.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 140px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVGnDJPVlqS-kIUsZPpHhIMjmi6bSwM5vRb01rPyikeAhU2K7DCEpGmKZCWpY4UbyexY-H4n7LhqYvquCaH3FmAFWc6yEymCBDcf1bYDp3qUKuUWvjRcT6ypUs8LWgjjHYyzhzC27-uGc/s200/flora_north_stradbroke_20090330082818_00001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318742429234806754" /></a><br />K.

Holthuijsen<br /><br />Waves in Oceanic and Coastal Waters describes the observation, analysis and prediction of wind-generated waves in the open ocean, in shelf seas and in coastal regions. The book brings graduate students, researchers and engineers up-to-date with the science and technology involved, assuming only a basic understanding of physics, mathematics and statistics.<br />Most of this richly illustrated book is devoted to the physical aspects of waves. After introducing observation techniques for waves, both at sea and from space, the book defines the parameters that characterize waves. Using basic statistical and physical concepts, the author discusses the prediction of waves in oceanic and coastal waters, first in terms of generalized observations, and then in terms of the more theoretical framework of the spectral energy balance: their origin (generation by wind), their transformation to swell (dispersion), their propagation into coastal waters (shoaling, refraction, diffraction and reflection), the interaction amongst themselves (wave – wave interactions) and their decay (white-capping, bottom friction, and surf-breaking). He gives the results of established theories and also the direction in which research is developing. The book ends with a description of SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore), the preferred computer model of the engineering community for predicting waves in coastal waters.” -- book cover<br /><a href="mailto:library@epa.qld.gov.au&subject=Waves_in_Oceanic_and_Coastal_30949">Contact the library to request this book</a><a href="http://epaopac.slq.qld.gov.au/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?BBID=30949"></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361078969711754854.post-75775170879121507242009-02-02T08:57:00.001+10:002009-02-02T09:00:24.252+10:00State of the World 2009 : Into a Warming World<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpLvjs5SCebLvB4Pq7-PzULBU_kk5bIGFt9V_3uxlP5ONFi756L2JhGi7A_LgZw30wOe-XPL8OGbj-In1ZQfrw8DmxY7o8sl_J87VAl1fNnMNeEwYAgLsOaCTmxpUiSUGkFSfuM2F-Y5M/s1600-h/state_of_the_world_2009_20090202083645_00001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5297967648119466850" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 152px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpLvjs5SCebLvB4Pq7-PzULBU_kk5bIGFt9V_3uxlP5ONFi756L2JhGi7A_LgZw30wOe-XPL8OGbj-In1ZQfrw8DmxY7o8sl_J87VAl1fNnMNeEwYAgLsOaCTmxpUiSUGkFSfuM2F-Y5M/s200/state_of_the_world_2009_20090202083645_00001.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Worldwatch Institute<br /><br />[This publication] is intended to inject new inspiration and energy into national and international climate negotiations by conveying the profound long-term consequences of the experiment we are now conducting with Earth’s atmosphere, with an emphasis on the human and ecological effects of that transformation.
