  • Safety in Offshore Drilling

    The Role of Shallow Gas Surveys, Proceedings of an International Conference (Safety in Offshore Drilling) organized by the Society for Underwater Technology and held in London, U.K., April 25 & 26, 1990

    Edited by D.A. Ardus, C.D. Green ...
    Series Book 25 - Advances in Underwater Technology, Ocean Science and Offshore Engineering
    Shallow Gas determination, prior to drilling, is carried out using 'Engineering Seismic' survey methods. Seismic acquisition data quality is fundamental in achieving this objective as both the data processing methods and interpretation accuracy are subject to the quality of the data obtained. The recent application of workstation based data analysis and interpretation has clearly demonstrated the ... Read more

  • Ocean Biogeochemistry

    The Role of the Ocean Carbon Cycle in Global Change

    Edited by Michael J.R. Fasham ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Oceans account for 50% of the anthropogenic CO2 released into the atmosphere. During the past 15 years an international programme, the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), has been studying the ocean carbon cycle to quantify and model the biological and physical processes whereby CO2 is pumped from the ocean's surface to the depths of the ocean, where it can remain for hundreds of years. This ... Read more

  • Natural Gas Hydrate

    In Oceanic and Permafrost Environments

    Edited by M.D. Max ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    THE BEGINNINGS OF HYDRATE RESEARCH Until very recently, our understanding of hydrate in the natural environment and its impact on seafloor stability, its importance as a sequester of methane, and its potential as an important mechanism in the Earth's climate change system, was masked by our lack of appreciation of the vastness of the hydrate resource. Only a few publications on naturally occurring ... Read more

  • Trace Metals in the Westerschelde Estuary: A Case-Study of a Polluted, Partially Anoxic Estuary

    Edited by W. Baeyens ...
    Series Book 128 - Developments in Hydrobiology
    Oceans and lakes are characterized by large residence times and can thus be considered as being in an equilibrium or quasi-equilibrium state. In contrast, estuaries, which constitute the interface between the fresh water and marine ecosystems, are biogeochemically and physically very dynamic. Strong gradients in physical and chemical variables such as temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen, ... Read more

  • Soft Shore Protection

    An Environmental Innovation in Coastal Engineering

    Series Book 7 - Coastal Systems and Continental Margins
    Global warming, melting polar caps, rising sea levels and intensifying wave-current action, factors responsible for the alarming phenomena of coastal erosion on the one hand and adverse environmental impacts and the high cost of 'hard' protection schemes, on the other, have created interest in the detailed examination of the potential and range of applicability of the emerging and promising ...

  • Pitfalls of Shoreline Stabilization

    Selected Case Studies

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    At the coast all is not what it seems. Decades of beachfront development have seen a variety of efforts to stabilize the shoreline to protect ill-placed beachfront property, both from shoreline erosion and from storm damage. Both of these problems become increasingly critical in a time of rising sea level. Many natural beaches are backed by sea walls, while others have been transformed by whole ... Read more

  • Carbon Cycling in the Baltic Sea

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The Baltic Sea is an area extensively explored by the oceanographers. Hence it is one of the most often described marine areas in the scientific literature. However, there are still several fields which are poorly investigated and reported by scientists. One of them is the carbon cycle of the Baltic Sea. Although it is believed the shelf seas are responsible for about 20% of all marine carbon ... Read more
