Ciaphas Cain Caves Of Ice Audiobook =link=praise the "vivid imagery" and the excellent representation of the Necrons. : The audiobook features a multi-narrator cast that brings the "Cain Archive" format to life: Stephen Perring True to form, Cain’s primary motivation is self-preservation. He seeks out what he believes will be a safe, comfortable assignment far from the front lines: scouting the subterranean ice caverns beneath the planet's surface. However, Cain’s legendary "luck" backfires spectacularly. Instead of avoiding danger, he and his squad stumble directly into a localized Ork infestation—and something far worse. Deep within the ice lies an ancient, dormant threat that puts the entire planet, and Cain’s life, in mortal peril. Why the Audiobook Format Excels ciaphas cain caves of ice audiobook Yes. Unequivocally. In Caves of Ice , Commissar Ciaphas Cain and the Valhallan 597th are deployed to the ice world of to defend a vital promethium refinery. While his Valhallan troops are right at home in the sub-zero temperatures, Cain’s primary goal is to avoid the front lines of an impending Ork incursion. praise the "vivid imagery" and the excellent representation The Ultimate Guide to the Ciaphas Cain: Caves of Ice Audiobook Beyond Cain, the audio format brings beloved side characters like the loyal, blank-auraed Jurgen and the fierce Valhallan troopers to life with distinct personality. Technical Details Author: Sandy Mitchell Narrators: Stephen Perring, Penelope Rawlins, Emma Gregory Publisher: Black Library Run Time: Approximately 9 hours and 14 minutes However, Cain’s legendary "luck" backfires spectacularly In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, there is only war—and, if you are very lucky, the sardonic, self-preserving wit of Commissar Ciaphas Cain. Among the pantheon of Black Library’s literary heroes, Cain stands apart. He isn’t a noble Space Marine or a zealous Inquisitor; he is a man who desperately wants to be anywhere other than the front lines, yet constantly finds himself accidentally hailed as a hero. The contrast between Perring’s performance as the anxious Cain and Rawlins’ witty interruptions creates a dynamic narrative flow that keeps the listener engaged for all 9-plus hours. |
Ciaphas Cain Caves Of Ice Audiobook =link=Welcome to the Global Climate Model Data Archive section of the Data Distribution Centre (DDC) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). This page is the main entry point for users who want to retrieve either data (FAR to AR4 monthly mean; AR5 in different frequencies) available at DDC or information on the models used. About DDC GCM data archive The DDC uses the CERA database which is run by the World Data Center Climate (WDCC) at DKRZ. Detailed information on the CERA database is available on the Web. You can look here to get more information. The data is stored on a tape archive which is associated with the (local) database CERA. A data request will initiate a retrieval mechanism that will take some time to transfer the data from tape to disk, therefore users may have to wait before the requested data is transferred. Data is provided in NetCDF for AR5 and otherwise in GRIB format (machine independent, self-descriptive binary formats). If you need data in GZIP (compressed ASCII) format you'll have to convert the binary data locally. Information on both formats and the internal data structure is given here. You can select between:
* You can get a subset of these IPCC-DDC data on storage medias here. Download Statistics Annual statistics and reports are available starting for 2014 at Annual IPCC-DDC statistics. Monthly statistics of the number of downloads and the download volume for IPCC-DDC data are available online:
GCM data validation One of the criteria commonly used in selecting a GCM to be used in constructing regional climate scenarios for impact assessment is the performance of the GCM in simulating the present-day climate in the region. This is evaluated by comparing the model outputs with observed climate in the target region, and also over larger scales, to determine the ability of the model to simulate large scale circulation patterns. Examples of graphical comparisons between GCM outputs and observed climate for the 1961-1990 period for subcontinental world regions can be found here. AR5 Scenarios AR5 Scenarios are based on scenarios of the CMIP5 (Climate Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5). Details on CMIP5 Scenarios can be found in: |
