Book Summary

The “Encyclopedia of Paleoclimatology and Ancient Environments” is a comprehensive reference work that delves into the study of past climates and ancient Earth environments. Through a wealth of illustrations, including line drawings and photographs, the book covers a wide range of topics alphabetically. It offers extensive bibliographies and cross-references to facilitate deeper exploration of this fascinating field, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in understanding Earth’s climatic history and the environments of the distant past.

Concern exists over human-generated increases in atmospheric greenhouse gases and their potential consequences to society. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2007 finds that global temperatures have increased by 0.8ºC since 1850 and that climate warming is now ‘unequivocal’. While the human imprint is becoming increasingly apparent, Earth’s climate has shifted dramatically and frequently during the last few million years, alternating between ice ages, when vast glaciers covered Northern Europe and much of North America, and interglacials—warm periods much like today. Farther back in geologic time, climates have differed even more from the present.

The “Encyclopedia of Paleoclimatology and Ancient Environments”, a companion volume to the recently-published Encyclopedia of World Climatology, provides the reader with an entry point to the rapidly expanding field of paleoclimatology—the study of climates of the past. Highly interdisciplinary in nature, paleoclimatology integrates information from a broad array of disciplines in the geosciences, ranging from stratigraphy, geomorphology, glaciology, paleoecology, paleobotany to geochemistry and geophysics, among others. The encyclopedia offers 230 informative articles written by over 200 well known international experts on numerous subjects, ranging from classical geological evidence to the latest research. This volume includes numerous illustrations like line drawings and both black-and-white and color photographs. It arranges articles alphabetically and provides extensive bibliographies and cross-references.
