Annotation. Forest ecosystems exist at the interface between the land and the atmosphere. Understanding the properties of this planetary boundary layer is very important for a number of related disciplines. This book presents an overview of topics that are of significance at this interface, starting at the scale of intra-leaf organelles, ranging to higher levels of organisation such as communities and ecosystems. It covers topics such as stomatal functioning, large scale processes, radiation modelling, forest meteorology and carbon sequestration. Based on proceedings of a conference to mark the retirement of Professor Paul Jarvis from the University of Edinburgh, the book contains contributions from leading international scientists. It will be of significant interest to researchers in forestry, ecology, environmental sciences and natural resources.
The Imperium has been at war with Vlibb Hegemony for centuries. Forged from generations of war, Grand Admiral Scanlon begins a new training programme, Operation Night Owl, made up by the best handpicked youths to fight their war. Daxton Thorne, who was exiled from the Imperium by his father, is one of those cadets. Now he is returning ten years later, a new person and ready to become what his nation needs most—a saviour. Little to anyone’s knowledge, a group are operating in the shadows of the Imperium. Their separatist agenda sets to derail everything the cadets are training to protect. This group is brought to the ISC Asteria, where the new cadets are receiving passage to their training academy.
