  • The Seismogenic Zone of Subduction Thrust Faults

    Edited by Timothy Dixon, , Ph.D., J. Casey Moore ...
    Series series MARGINS Theoretical and Experimental Earth Science Series
    Subduction zones, one of the three types of plate boundaries, return Earth's surface to its deep interior. Because subduction zones are gently inclined at shallow depths and depress Earth's temperature gradient, they have the largest seismogenic area of any plate boundary. Consequently, subduction zones generate Earth's largest earthquakes and most destructive tsunamis. As tragically demonstrated ... Read more

  • Thermal Signatures of Heat Transfer Processes in the Earth’s Crust

    Translated by C. Newcomb ...
    by Christoph Clauser ...
    Series Book 85 - Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences
    This book deals with the signatures left by geodynamic proceses in the temperature field of the Earth's crust. First, it introduces briefly the established, indirect methods for interpreting the present termperature field and methods for reconstructing the thermal fields of the geological past. Then the spatial and temporal scales that are relevant for heat transport processes are described. This ... Read more

  • Biogeochemical Transformations in the Baltic Sea

    Observations Through Carbon Dioxide Glasses

    by Bernd Schneider, Jens Daniel Müller ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book provides a comprehensive review of the biogeochemistry in the Baltic Sea. It is based on the fact that biogeochemical processes that are relevant for the ecological state of the Baltic Sea (and other sea areas), are all in some way related to the production and mineralization of organic matter (biomass) and thus are associated with the consumption or release of CO2. The significant ... Read more

  • Pitfalls of Shoreline Stabilization

    Selected Case Studies

    Edited by Orrin H. Pilkey, J. Andrew G. Cooper ...
    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
