Narrator, Peter McAllum.Our planet has been shaped by powerful elemental forces, of earth, fire, ice, water, and wind. Over millions of years, they have given rise to natural icons of immense grandeur and variety. Mount Everest, Jordan's Dead Sea, Rotorua's boiling mud pools, Indonesia's archipelago, Sossusvlei's dunes, the Northern Lights, the Rockies, the Amazon, Antarctica, and more. Throughout six episodes, we travel worldwide, exploring. The icons are as different as the forces that created them, from exploding volcanoes to phosphorescent reefs, from snaking rivers to infinite ice sheets, from burning deserts to abyssal fjords. In turn, these natural wonders shape the evolution of all life.E.Closed-captioned for the hearing impaired.Subtitled for the deaf and hard-of-hearing (SDH).DVD ; wide screen presentation ; 5.1 surround.- Subjects: Documentary television programs.; Nonfiction television programs.; Travelogues (Television programs); Video recordings for the hearing impaired.; Auroras.; Earth sciences.; Geology.; Landforms.;

- Great Lakes untamed. [videorecording] / by McIntyre Media,distributor.;
In winter, Great Lakes animals must deal with extreme temperatures. Divers explore the lakebed where a colossal ice sheet once ground into North America's bedrock, leaving five giant lakes when it melted. Each year the ice returns, challenging life. A powerful jet stream dip creates huge ice storms, the world's largest freshwater waves, and lake effect snow. Life has adapted. Otters frolic beneath Lake Huron's ice surface; giant freshwater cod sing and mate in the frigid waters; ravens outwit bald eagles and wolves, feeding on a deer; snow provides insulation for new-born black bears; the huge paws of a Canadian lynx help it move in deep snow; and the ultra-violet fur of flying squirrels deters predators. But some creatures are suffering due to the shorter, warmer winters. A rare wolverine is threatened by the warming climate and Great Lakes moose are declining in numbers. Ice and snow created North America's Great Lakes and its species have evolved to survive the harsh elements. In this warming world, the future of life in the Great Lakes will be shaped by one species - us.E.DVD.- Subjects: Documentary television programs.; Nonfiction television programs.; Television mini-series.; Freshwater ecology; Lakes; Watersheds;

Includes bibliographical references and index."Greenland: remote, mysterious, ice-covered rock, population 56,000, in the middle of the North Atlantic. Why do we care so much about it? Because locked within the the vast and frozen "white desert"--the nickname early explorers gave it--that covers eighty percent of the land are some of the most profound secrets of our planet--clues about where we've been, and where we might be headed. And now, with the ice sheet melting at an unprecedented rate, we are able, for the first time, to understand the story that lies within it, and what it can tell us about our future. In The Ice at the End of the World, Jon Gertner reconstructs in vivid, thrilling detail the heroic efforts of the scientists and explorers who have visited Greenland over the past 150 years--first on skis, then on sleds, and now, with planes and satellites, utilizing every technological tool available to uncover the secrets in the ice before it's too late. Much as he did with his depiction of solid-state engineers and laser scientists in his bestselling book The Idea Factory, Gertner chronicles the amazing advances, almost unfathomable hardships, technological leaps, and scientific achievements of Arctic researchers with a rich, transporting, deeply intelligent style that melds the compelling stories of a small cast of brilliant and eccentric individuals, with a keen, analytical eye toward what this work means for the rest of us"--- Available copies: 1 / Total copies: 1
