氷河期――世界が凍りつき、生命が生き残りをかけて闘った時代

de 沼田智大 ...

Narrado por 沼田智大 ...

Completo

2 hora 18 minutos

すべてが氷に閉ざされた極限の地球環境において、生命はいかにして絶滅の危機に抗い、驚異的な生存戦略と進化の奇跡を編み出したのか。静かな夜のリラックスタイムや長時間の通勤電車の中でこの壮大な気候変動のドラマに没入すれば、見慣れた日常の風景がダイナミックな地球史の一部へと変貌します。過酷な大自然の暴力的な寒さは、ただ種を淘汰しただけでなく、人類の祖先を新たな大陸へと導き、多様な文化や農耕を生み出す原動力となりました。現代の私たちが直面する環境の危機を理解する鍵もまた、この氷河期を生き抜いた生命の力強い軌跡の中に静かに息づいています。本書で見つかること:太陽エネルギーの変化や二酸化炭素の増減がもたらす、地球規模のダイナミックな寒冷化メカニズム。全球凍結という極端な仮説から第四紀の氷床拡大まで、時空を超える圧倒的スケールの気候変動ストーリー。凍てつく海や巨大な大陸氷床の広がりが ...
