- More than 100 new illustrations than in the previous edition, many never before published, as well as new maps and photos
- Major expansion of sections on geology, old-growth forests, marine mammals, and amphibians
- Fifty-two new sidebars--written in the first person to give the text a more personal touch---that describe recent findings or experiences.
- Sweeping updates and elaborations to chapter narratives--often thanks to technology unknown in 1992.
