Introduction to Climate Science
Andreas Schmittner · Oregon State University
This book describes how Earth's climate is changing, how it has been changing in the recent geological past and how it may change in the future. It covers the physical sciences that build the foundations of our current understanding of global climate change such as radiation, Earth's energy balance, the greenhouse effect and the carbon cycle. Both natural and human causes for climate change are discussed. Impacts of climate change on natural and human systems are summarized.

Precalculus
Thomas Tradler and Holly Carley · CUNY New York City College of Technology
These are notes for a course in precalculus, as it is taught at New York City College of Technology - CUNY. Our approach is calculator based. For this, we will use the currently standard TI-84 calculator, and many of the examples will be explained and solved with it. However, we want to point out that there are also many other calculators that are suitable for the purpose of this course and many of these alternatives have similar functionalities as the calculator that we have chosen to use.

Physical Geography
K. Allison Lenkeit-Meezan · Foothill College
Physical geography is the study of the earth's dynamic systems: its air, water, weather climate, landforms, rocks, soils, plants, ecosystems and biomes and how humans interact with the earth's systems. Physical geography is the study of the world around you. Everyone, every day, interacts with the earth's dynamic systems.

Electricity and Magnetism
Jeremy Tatum · University of Victoria
This is the first in a series of chapters on electricity and magnetism. Much of it will be aimed at an introductory level suitable for first or second year students, or perhaps some parts may also be useful at high school level. Occasionally, as I feel inclined, I shall go a little bit further than an introductory level, though the text will not be enough for anyone pursuing electricity and magnetism in a third or fourth year honours class.
