Marine Electrical and Electronics Bible

A Practical Handbook for Cruising Sailors

By: John C. Payne

The completely revised, expanded, and updated fourth edition of the world’s most comprehensive electrical and electronics handbook for sailors Marine Electrical and Electronics Bible is a useful and thoroughly practical guide that explains in detail how to select, install, maintain, and troubleshoot all of the electrical and electronic systems found on board cruising, racing, and trawler yachts, power- and motorboats, and even superyachts. This guide is fully illustrated throughout with more than two hundred charts, wiring diagrams, tables, and graphs. Light on theory and heavy on practical advice, Marine Electrical and Electronics Bible recognizes that most cruising yacht owners do not have a technical background. The chapters are formatted to enable quick access to technical descriptions and troubleshooting advice. They are also infused with the author’s own professional marine electrical background and lived cruising experiences, along with lessons learned over decades of continual input and conversations with fellow sailors. The Marine Electrical section incorporates all of the latest developments in battery technology and charging. It also has a substantial section on renewable energy systems—including wind, water, and solar—and a comprehensive chapter on marine diesel engines and related systems. The Marine Electronics section is technologically up to date, including new developments with AIS, GMDSS, and radar. The communications chapters are unique in that they incorporate a comprehensive listing of radio frequencies and weather broadcast times, from HAM and HF/SSB radio to VHF radio and NAVTEX, for most major sailing areas around the world. The various satellite communications systems are explained in detail, along with a curated selection of useful phone boating apps. The final chapters have extensive troubleshooting, maintenance information, and practices, as well as a detailed worldwide list of service companies.

Rocky Shores

Rocky Shores

By: John Archer-Thomson,Julian Cremona

An engaging account of the natural history of rock and boulder-strewn shores around Britain's coastline. Rocky Shores explores the species, communities and landscape of the narrow strip of land surrounding much of the British Isles. While it may be limited in extent, this habitat is incredibly biodiverse, and this insightful book details all the patterns of marine life that might be encountered on sheltered and exposed shores, from the inhospitable splash zone to the repeatedly submerged lower shore, and everything in between. Comprehensive chapters accompanied by exceptional photographs cover various members of the rocky-shore community in turn: striking lichens that colourfully adorn the rocks; seaweeds that have sustained human settlements for millennia; mysterious and often spectacular worms and their relatives; molluscs with variously configured shells; spiny-skinned echinoderms that move using tube feet; arthropods that range from tiny marine insects to heavy-clawed crabs; and microscopic species that drift around at the mercy of the tides. Rock pools provide pockets of diversity dotted across the shore, while the strandline at the high-tide mark supports a unique assemblage of microbes and invertebrates that attracts a variety of birds and mammals. For anyone with a love of the shore – from the occasional rockpooler to avid naturalists – this book is a must for your collection.

Collapse Operations for First Responders

By: John O'Connell

Collapse Operations for First Responders discusses in detail the common warning signs of structural collapse and what to do when they are encountered, providing a practical, hands-on approach to operating safely and effectively in collapse rescue situations. Discussion is chiefly directed toward one of the most common types of structures around the country, wood and brick-and-joist (ordinary-constructed) buildings, known as URM (unreinforced masonry) construction. Various types of shoring and cribbing techniques vital to collapse rescue operations, as well as void size-up, safety at collapse operations, tools used in voids, and void procedures are explored. Collapse Operations for First Responders is a must-have resource for firefighters, officers, chiefs, and technical rescue response personnel.

Physiological Diversity

Ecological Implications

Physiological Diversity

Ecological Implications

By: John Spicer,Kevin Gaston

Ecologists have always believed, at least to a certain extent, that physiological mechanisms serve to underpin ecological patterns. However, their importance has traditionally been at best underestimated and at worst ignored, with physiological variation being dismissed as either an irrelevance or as random noise/error. Spicer and Gaston make a convincing argument that the precise physiology does matter! In contrast to previous works which have attempted to integrate ecology and physiology, Physiological Diversity adopts a completely different and more controversial approach in tackling the physiology first before moving on to consider the implications for ecology. This is timely given the recent and considerable interest in the mechanisms underlying ecological patterns. Indeed, many of these mechanisms are physiological. This textbook provides a contemporary summary of physiological diversity as it occurs at different hierarchical levels (individual, population, species etc.), and the implications of such diversity for ecology and, by implication, evolution. It reviews what is known of physiological diversity and in doing so exposes the reader to all the key works in the field. It also portrays many of these studies in a completely new light, thereby serving as an agenda for, and impetus to, the future study of physiological variation. Physiological Diversity will be of relevance to senior undergraduates, postgraduates and professional researchers in the fields of ecology, ecological physiology, ecotoxicology, environmental biology and conservation. The book spans both terrestrial and marine systems.

Historic Amusement Parks of Baltimore

An Illustrated History

By: John P. Coleman

This book presents the rich history of the old amusement parks and beach resorts frequented by Baltimoreans beginning in the 1870s and stretching into the late 20th century. Readers may recognize such popular amusement parks as Gwynn Oak, Carlin's, and Tolchester Beach, and will learn about some of the more obscure places like Frederick Road Park and Hollywood Park. Each of the major parks is documented here, complete with a detailed history of the sites they were built on, the creative owners behind the parks' inceptions, the individuals and companies who provided the rides and attractions, and, the people that happily traveled by boat, streetcar, train and automobile to reach their favorite park or resort.
