Computerized Modeling of Sedimentary Systems

Edited by Jan Harff, Wolfram Lemke, Karl Stattegger ...

Computerized modeling is a powerful tool to describe the complex interrelations between measured data and the dynamics of sedimentary systems. Complex interaction of environmental factors with natural variations and increasing anthropogenic intervention is reflected in the sedimentary record at varying scales. The understanding of these processes gives way to the reconstruction of the past and is ... Read more

How Nature Works

the science of self-organized criticality

by Per Bak ...

Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
and acknowledgments Self-organized criticality is a new way of viewing nature. The basic picture is one where nature is perpetually out of balance, but organized in a poised state-the critical state-where anything can happen within well-defined statistical laws. The aim of the science of self-organized criticality is to yield insight into the fundamental question of why nature is complex, not ... Read more

Coastline Changes of the Baltic Sea from South to East

Past and Future Projection

Edited by Jan Harff, Kazimierz Furmańczyk, Hans von Storch ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
This book discusses sea-level and coastline changes. These topics are becoming increasingly important for populations living along the edge of the world’s oceans and seas, especially in areas where eustatic sea-level rise is superimposed on isostatic subsidence and storm-induced coastal erosion. This is the case at the southern and eastern Baltic Sea coast: in the south, glacio-isostatic ... Read more

Magic of Minerals and Rocks

by Dirk J. Wiersma ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
Magic of Minerals and Rocks, featuring 135 splendid color photographs, ranges from vast rock-landscapes recorded in Europe, America, Australia, and Iceland right down to finely detailed images of a few square millimeters. Close-ups of crystals, gems, and fossils are alternated with micro-images of the minute textures and patterns that emerge from thin, translucent sections of rocks and minerals. ... Read more

Lake Kivu

Limnology and biogeochemistry of a tropical great lake

Edited by Jean-Pierre Descy, François Darchambeau, Martin Schmid ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
In the heart of Africa, a unique lake attracts the attention of scientists since the beginning of the 20th century. At the foot of the Virunga volcano chain, Lake Kivu harbors a vast amount of dissolved carbon dioxide and methane, making this lake the most dangerous lake on Earth. But the lake furnishes also many goods and services for surrounding populations and may soon become the most important ... Read more

Geology of Holocene Barrier Island Systems

Edited by Richard A. Jr. Davis ...

Barrier islands represent a complex coastal system that includes a number of different sedimentary depositional environments; nearshore zone, beach, dunes, washover fans, marshes, tidal flats, estuaries, lagoons, and tidal inlets. The morphodynamics of these fragile coastal systems provide a further complication to this coastal type. Although barrier islands comprise only 15% of the world's ... Read more
