A New York real estate tycoon plunges to his death on a Manhattan sidewalk. A trophy wife with a past survives a narrow escape from a brazen attack. Mobsters and moguls with no shortage of reasons to kill trot out their alibis. And then, in the suffocating grip of a record heat wave, comes another shocking murder and a sharp turn in a tense journey into the dirty little secrets of the wealthy. Secrets that prove to be fatal. Secrets that lay hidden in the dark until one NYPD detective shines a light. Mystery sensation Richard Castle, blockbuster author of the wildly best-selling Derrick Storm novels, introduces his newest character, NYPD Homicide Detective Nikki Heat. Tough, sexy, professional, Nikki Heat carries a passion for justice as she leads one of New York City's top homicide squads. She's hit with an unexpected challenge when the commissioner assigns superstar magazine journalist Jameson Rook to ride along with her to research an article on New York's Finest. Pulitzer Prize-winning Rook is as much a handful as he is handsome. His wise-cracking and meddling aren't her only problems. As she works to unravel the secrets of the murdered real estate tycoon, she must also confront the spark between them. The one called heat.

About 90 percent of this excessive heat is due to buildings and pavements that absorb and store solar heat (According to the Green Buildings Council). The only reference that focuses specifically on pavements, Pavement Materials for Heat Island Mitigation: Design and Management Strategies explores different advanced paving materials, their properties, and their associated advantages and disadvantages. Relevant properties of pavement materials (e.g. albedo, permeability, thermal conductivity, heat capacity and evaporation rate) are measured in many cases using newly developed methods. Includes experimental methods for testing different types of pavements materials Identifies different cool pavement strategies with their advantages and associated disadvantages Design and construct local microclimate models to evaluate and validate different cool pavement materials in different climate regions

PREDICTING STORMS - The Adventure Begins 2nd Edition. BY ROBERT ELLIS Robert Ellis' full colour paperback book shows ordinary people how to predict a storm long before it is even visible to radar or satellite. Many lives can be saved by using the simple rules explained in the book. As many as 500,000 people worldwide may die in large storms each year. Traditional weather forecasts can currently only give around 13 minutes' lead time for tornadoes spawned by supercell thunderstorms. The Tornado Early Warning Rule published in this book gives at least 5 hours early warning of a deadly tornado from its rigid straight-line signature on a barograph. Your barometer will give you at least 24 hours early warning of an approaching hurricane making landfall. Book has the most comprehensive compilation of barometer rules for all storms. Predicting Storms covers practical information such as whether you can walk to work, or if there will be a storm or rain in your area within the next hour or two. All types of storms are covered in the book: Severe Thunderstorms, tornadic supercell thunderstorms, cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons, extratropical cyclones, tropical storms, tornadoes, bush firestorms, fire tornadoes, weather bombs, windstorms, dust storms, and snowstorms. Barometer rules apply to storms on land and at sea, so sea and surf are another important part of the book. Readers will learn the 'secret of the swell'. Predicting Storms explains how a small increase in carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere makes a critical difference to the Earth's climate and why we can expect stronger storms in a warmer world. Whether you are a general reader, a surfer, a weather watcher, a storm-spotter, or a storm-chaser, Predicting Storms will give you the tools to predict all storms confidently. The book has a useful, easy-to-use highly rated companion app that users can download free, Thunder & Bushfire Storms app. Predicting storms is the author's passion. Predicting storms is easy and it's fun. Book suggests you use your own barometer or access a graph of pressure against time (barograph) in an app with pressure sensor. Marine Barograph app can be used on land or at sea.

This chapter has shown a small sample of GIS applications in economic devel- ment. GIS is a powerful tool for data analysis and presentation, and the economic development rami cations are truly signi cant. The speed at which data and stra- gies can be coordinated is clearly changing the way economic developers approach their job. There are a number of important trends that are likely to result in GIS becoming more pervasive in the economic development community. These include declining costs of GIS software, increased computing power, and the growth of Web-based GIS applications. There also has been increase in GIS skills among economic development professionals. References Bastian, L. (2002). Getting the best from the web.

This three-volume set presents entries and primary sources that will impress on readers that what we do—or don't do—today regarding climate change will dramatically influence what life on this planet will be like for untold numbers of generations. How are the behaviors of birds, butterflies, and other migratory animals connected to climate change? What does the term "thermal inertia" mean, and what does this geophysical effect have on predicting what the planet's future will be like? What is the context for the effects we are seeing on various forms of animal life, from migrating birds to polar bears to mosquitoes that transmit Zika and other diseases? Climate Change: An Encyclopedia of Science, Society, and Solutions combines entries describing Earth's variable climatic history, references to scientific literature, weather record data, and selected primary documents to present readers with a comprehensive account of global warming's effects worldwide. By examining verifiable, quantitative information such as the frequency and intensity of hurricanes and changes in the hydrological cycle, as well as clear patterns and trends of alternating droughts and deluges and wildfires, melting ice, and rising seas, readers will be able to understand why scientists are so concerned about the future of our climate. Researchers will benefit from detailed explanations of scientific topics such as thermal inertia, feedbacks, and tipping points; and receive invaluable context on the role of energy use in climate change, including automobiles and air travel. Readers will learn about the role of China in the current global climate and in the future; the widespread effects of climate change on agriculture; and how indigenous peoples' lives are being impacted, from drought and the Navajos to hunters' lives in the Arctic. The work concludes with thought-provoking debates regarding potential solutions, from wind power and solar power to geo-engineering.
