  • Quantitative Parameterization and 3D‐run‐out Modelling of Rockfalls at Steep Limestone Cliffs in the Bavarian Alps

    by Bettina Sellmeier ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This pioneering work deals with the parameterization of rockfalls in the context of 3D run-out modelling at a study site in the Bavarian Alps. The main objective was to cover not only low-magnitude, high-frequency rockfalls (<10 m3) but also Mid-Magnitude events, which involve rock volumes of between 10 and 100 m3 (boulder falls) and between 100 and 10,000 m3 (block falls). As Mid-Magnitude events ... Read more

  • Q of the Earth: Global, Regional, and Laboratory Studies

    Edited by Barbara Romanowicz, Brian J. Mitchell ...
    Series series Pageoph Topical Volumes
    Variations in seismic Q are sensitive to a much greater extent than are seismic velocity variations on factors such as temperature, fluid content, and the movement of solid state defects in the earth. For that reason an understanding of Q and its variation with position in the earth and with time should provide information in earth's tectonic evolution, as well as on aspects of its internal ...

  • Macroevolution in Deep Time

    by Rituparna Bose, Alexander J. Bartholomew ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The prerequisite to investigating the underlying causes behind mass extinction is a profound understanding of the evolutionary history of both living and dead species. It is especially important to appreciate the significance of such studies in extinct organisms; especially in organisms that were abundant in a certain geologic era, but have subsequently dwindled or become extinct. Such studies ... Read more

    by Jinchun Chai, John P. Carter ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book deals with the behaviour of soft ground improved by some of the more common methods, including the installation of prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs), or the installation of soil-cement columns formed by deep mixing, or the preloading of soft ground by application of a vacuum pressure in addition to, or instead of, a surcharge loading. In particular, it describes the theories and the ... Read more
