Issar, published by Springer-Verlag in 1990. The enormous quantity and quality of new data added since 1990 called for a thorough update. Another reason for this work is the better understanding achieved since the initial book was published about the role which climate plays in shaping the history of the Lands of the Bible. Albeit the fact that the impact of climate change was touched upon rather widely in the first book, still, without interweaving the new data and understanding, the picture would have remained partial. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Geography,$x2211-4165 606 $aHydrogeology 606 $aClimatic changes 606 $aHistory 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aHydrogeology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G19005 606 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000 606 $aHistory, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/700000 606 $aPhysical Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J16000 615 0$aHydrogeology. 615 0$aClimatic changes. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 14$aHydrogeology. 615 24$aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts. 615 24$aHistory, general. 615 24$aPhysical Geography. 676 $a333.91 700 $aIssar$b A.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0749343 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298372703321 996 $aStrike the Rock and There Shall Come Water$92521594 997 $aUNINA
