  • River Morphology

    A Guide for Geoscientists and Engineers

    by Karl Scheurmann, Joachim Mangelsdorf, Fritz-Heinz Weiß ...
    Translated by Barbara Reimer ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    River Morphology deals with the interaction between flowing waters in rivers and their environment. Based on the representation of basic flow parameters, the geometry, classification and historic development of rivers are treated. Any change in the environment, occurring naturally or caused by man, leads to very sensitive reactions in river flow and transport. Thus this synopsis of geoscientific ... Read more

  • The Nordic Seas

    Edited by Burton G. Hurdle ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    " ... as soon as one has traversed the greater part of the wild sea, one comes upon such a huge quantity of ice that nowhere in the whole world has the like been known." "This ice is of a wonderful nature. It lies at times quite still, as one would expect, with openings or large fjords in it; but sometimes its movement is so strong and rapid as to equal that of a ship running before the wind, and ...

  • Studies of Cave Sediments

    Physical and Chemical Records of Paleoclimate

    Edited by Ira D. Sasowsky, John Mylroie ...
    John E. Mylroie and Ira D. Sasowsky' Caves occupy incongruous positions in both our culture and our science. The oldest records of modem human culture are the vivid cave paintings from southern France and northern Spain, which are in some cases more than 30,000 years old (Chauvet, et ai, 1996). Yet, to call someone a "caveman" is to declare them primitive and ignorant. Caves, being cryptic and ... Read more
