Download or read book Falkland Islands written by Will Wagstaff and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2024-11-08 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new, thoroughly updated third edition of Bradt’s Falkland Islands remains the only detailed and wide-ranging standalone travel guidebook to this British Overseas Territory and is ideal for independent, cruise-ship and tour-group visitors alike. It includes all recent information needed for a smooth trip, including on restaurants and hotels in Stanley, conservation issues, wildlife-watching trips, history and how to explore beyond the capital. The main islands – East and West Falkland – are covered, as are the smaller Bleaker, Kidney, Sea Lion, Pebble, New, West Point, Carcass, Saunders, Keppel, Weddell, Staats and Beaver islands. Situated in the South Atlantic Ocean, over 500 km from South America, the Falkland Islands are one of the world’s truly wild places, full of unspoilt scenery and wide vistas. A photographer’s delight and a must-visit location for those interested in the wild outdoors, the islands are home to major populations of albatrosses, penguins, dolphins, seals and other wildlife plus 3,600 people. It’s not all about penguins, though, as the islands’ spectacular scenery, comfortable accommodation, good wholesome British food and welcoming people create a wonderful place to visit. The thriving city of Stanley gives way to the wild open spaces of camp (rural areas) with its scattered settlements, long sandy beaches, isolated islands and rocky outcrops. History enthusiasts will be in their element, visiting sites ranging from the islands’ first British settlement to areas that were significant during the 1982 war. With Bradt’s Falkland Islands you can plan how to fly between islands, drive across the camp in a 4x4 vehicle, visit multiple penguin colonies (where these charismatic birds behave as if you are not there), sample smoko (a wide range of cakes and biscuits, served during a morning or afternoon tea break), watch black-browed albatrosses at their nest, be investigated by ‘Johnny Rooks’ (curious birds of prey), spot dolphins in the shallows, visit the magnificent collection of artefacts from around the islands at Stanley’s Historic Dockyard Museum and learn from local residents about life in this wildest of places. Whatever your interest, this is the essential guide for a successful trip.

Download or read book Darwin s Fossils written by Adrian Lister and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reveals how Darwin's study of fossils shaped his scientific thinking and led to his development of the theory of evolution. Darwin's Fossils is an accessible account of Darwin's pioneering work on fossils, his adventures in South America, and his relationship with the scientific establishment. While Darwin's research on Galápagos finches is celebrated, his work on fossils is less well known. Yet he was the first to collect the remains of giant extinct South American mammals; he worked out how coral reefs and atolls formed; he excavated and explained marine fossils high in the Andes; and he discovered a fossil forest that now bears his name. All of this research was fundamental in leading Darwin to develop his revolutionary theory of evolution. This richly illustrated book brings Darwin's fossils, many of which survive in museums and institutions around the world, together for the first time. Including new photography of many of the fossils--which in recent years have enjoyed a surge of scientific interest--as well as superb line drawings produced in the nineteenth century and newly commissioned artists' reconstructions of the extinct animals as they are understood today, Darwin's Fossils reveals how Darwin's discoveries played a crucial role in the development of his groundbreaking ideas.

Download or read book Falkland Islands Islas Malvinas in the Permo Carboniferous written by Kate Horan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-10 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the sedimentology of the Hells Kitchen Member of the Port Sussex Formation in East Falkland (Isla Soledad, Las Malvinas). It closely examines two sediment cores spanning these formations that were recovered from the Falkland Islands in 2008 following a mineral exploration programme. The integrated approach of this research, which combines sedimentological data with geochemistry, makes it a robust insight into this past climatic transition and may help to evaluate and inform predictions of future climate change.
