Iceberg Mysteries unveils the hidden world of icebergs, exploring their origins, journeys, and significant role in Earth's climate system. These colossal ice formations begin as part of glaciers, calving off into the ocean, and are later classified by size and shape. Their movements are dictated by a complex interplay of ocean currents, wind patterns, and the Coriolis effect, posing navigational hazards that have led to historical shipping disasters. The book highlights how icebergs serve as critical indicators of climate change. As Arctic and Antarctic ice shelves decline, iceberg calving rates increase, directly linking to global warming. Melting icebergs impact ocean salinity, sea levels, and marine ecosystems, as monitored by satellite imagery and oceanographic data. By adopting a fact-based approach, the book progresses from fundamental science to practical implications for shipping and navigation, culminating in an analysis of icebergs' role in climate change. Iceberg Mysteries integrates oceanography, climatology, and environmental science, offering a comprehensive view of these icy giants and their place in our planet's future.

Iceberg Utilization covers the proceedings of the First International Conference and Workshops on Iceberg Utilization for Fresh Water Production, Weather Modification and Other Applications, held at Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa, USA on October 2-6, 1977. The book focuses on the efforts to consider the feasibility of using icebergs as alternative water and energy resources relative to the growing concern on global water and energy shortage. The compilation first offers information on the patterns of cooperation in international science and technology and evaluation of subsidiary effects and concomitant issues and challenges in iceberg utilization. The text also looks at the consideration of icebergs as potential water resource, including arctic drifting stations, remote sensing, and transport of icebergs. The book discusses elements of iceberg technology and remote sensing of thickness of icebergs, as well as sources and properties of tabular icebergs and towing, handling, processing, and selection of icebergs. The text also considers the international law problems in the acquisition and transportation of Antarctic icebergs; ecological considerations of iceberg transport from Antarctic waters; and energy and freshwater production from icebergs. The selection is a dependable reference for readers wanting to explore the potential of icebergs as energy and water resource.

The issue of global warming and climate change is of continuous concern. Since the 1970s, it bas been shown that the pack-ice around the Arctic Ocean is thinning, the margin of permafrost is moving north and the vegetation in the high northern parts of the world is changing (the 'greening' of the Arctic). But are these changes the result of human activity or simply regular variations of the Earth's climate system? Over thousands of years, a continuous archive of iceberg and sea ice drift bas formed in the deep-sea sediments, revealing the place of the ice's origin and allowing a reconstruction of the surface currents and the climate of the past. However, the drift of floating ice from one place to another is not just a passive record of past ocean circulation. It actively influences and changes the surface ocean circulation, thus having a profound effect on climate change. Ice Drift, Ocean Circulation and Climate Change is the first book to focus on the interactions between ice, the ocean and the atmosphere and to describe how these three components of the climate system influence each other. It makes clear the positive contribution of paleoclimatology and paleoceanography and should be read by anyone concerned with global warming and climate change.
