Synopsis
Folge dem Weg des Dao von Kindheit an
Ein neues Werk des Autors von 'Astral Pet Store', viel Spaß beim Lesen!
————
In chaotischen Zeiten sucht man das Überleben; in Zeiten des Wohlstands sucht man Ruhm.
Obwohl die Große Yu-Dynastie von den Wechselfällen des Lebens gezeichnet war, befand sie sich immer noch in einer Ära des Wohlstands.
Im Nordwesten legte ein Jugendlicher neuntausend Meilen zu Fuß zurück und erschlug den Großen Dämon allein, um um lebenslangen Ruhm zu kämpfen.
Am Langen See eilte ein unvergleichlicher Großmeister in die sterbliche Welt, um eine Sekte zu gründen, und hinterließ einen Namen, der hundert Generationen lang verehrt werden sollte.
In der Kaiserstadt verbreitete eine heilige Gestalt ihre Lehren weit und breit, mit Anhängern in ganz Qingzhou, ihr Vermächtnis währte ewig.
Doch in der Stadt Qingzhou, im Anwesen einer Familie mit langer militärischer Tradition,
gab es ein Kind, das sich nie ernsthaften Beschäftigungen widmete, sondern seine Tage mit Schachspielen, Malen, Angeln und Zitherspielen verbrachte.
Jahre später—
……
Als das Schwert sich erhob, erstreckte sich Drachenrauch über dreitausend Meilen, und ein einziger Schlag löschte die Städte von neun Provinzen aus!
Unter allen Gesetzen der Welt bin nur ich den Weg gegangen.

Origin and Structure of the Earth Objective In this lesson, you should be able to cite the contributions of personalities/people to the understanding of the earth systems. Earth System Science (ESS) is the study of the Earth as a system. It considers interactions between the Earth’s “spheres” – atmosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere. It is a relatively new field whose foundations are established long ago by scientists in other fields. Who are the scientists who contributed to the understanding of the Earth system? Learn about it! Earth System Science Earth System Science is an integration of chemistry, physics, biology, and mathematics. It is the study of the Earth as an integrated system. It seeks to understand the past, current, and future states of the Earth. Many scientists had built the foundations of understanding the Earth systems. They include James Hutton, Alexander von Humboldt, Vladimir Vernadsky, James Lovelock, and Lynn Margulis. James Hutton James Hutton, the father of modern geology, was a Scottish farmer and naturalist. It was in farming that he observed how land was shaped by destructive forces of wind and weather systems. He described how the Earth was formed in a repeated cycle of erosion and sedimentation, with heat from volcanic activity as the driving force. He also introduced the concept of uniformitarianism, implying that the geological forces (such as those that trigger erosion and volcanic activities) in the past are the same as those in the present, making it possible to determine the Earth's history by studying rocks. Learn about it! Alexander von Humboldt Alexander von Humboldt, a 19th-century geographer, helped establish the foundation for Earth System Science through his observations of nature. He, together with his colleagues, traveled to America; collected botanical, zoological, and geological specimens; recorded the location of the specimens where they were found; and performed atmospheric and geophysical measurements. From his records, he recognized patterns that reveal underlying processes, such as the transport of heat in ocean currents and the influence of temperature on plants. Vladimir Vernadsky Vladimir Vernadsky, one of the founders of geochemistry, popularized the term noosphere. In his theory of Earth development, he stated that geosphere was the first phase of the Earth that was developed. The second phase was the biosphere or biological life. The emergence of life on Earth transformed the geosphere. Then the noosphere, the sphere of human consciousness, is the third phase. The development of human cognition then transformed the biosphere. Today, the study of human impact on the biosphere led to the concept of sustainability, which is the capacity of the Earth to continue to support human life. Learn about it! James Lovelock James Lovelock, a British environmentalist, proposed the Gaia hypothesis, which postulates that the Earth works as a self-regulating system. He stated that the living organisms co-evolve with nonliving things in the environment to form a synergistic, self-regulating system where life is maintained and perpetuated. He cited as evidence the photosynthetic bacteria during the Precambrian times. The bacteria modified the Earth’s atmosphere to become oxygen-enriched. The change in the atmosphere then supported the evolution of more complex organisms. Lynn Margulis Lynn Margulis, an evolutionary theorist, further developed Lovelock’s Gaia hypothesis. Margulis noticed that all kinds of bacteria give off gases and thought that atmospheric gases were from biological sources. She collaborated with Lovelock and published a paper on how life regulates the temperature and chemical composition of the soil and the atmosphere. Learn about it!
