  • The Biosphere

    by M.A.S. McMenamin, L. Margulis, Vladimir I. Vernadsky, M. Ceruti, S. Golubic, R. Guerrero, N. Ikeda, N. Ikezawa, W.E. Krumbein, A. Lapo, A. Lazcano, D. Suzuki, C. Tickell, M. Walter, P. Westbroek ...
    Translated by D.B. Langmuir ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Long unknown in the West, The Biosphere established the field of biogeochemistry and is one of the classic founding documents of what later became known as Gaia theory. It is the first sustained expression of the idea that life is a geological force that can change Earth's landforms, its climate, and even the contents of its atmosphere. A complete, unabridged translation has never before been ... Read more

  • Field Geology of High-Grade Gneiss Terrains

    by Cees W. Passchier, Alfred Kröner, John S. Myers ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Although there are numerous publications on the geology of high-grade gneiss terrains, few descriptions exist of how to map and carry out structural analysis in these terrains. Textbooks on structural geology concentrate on technIques appli cable to low-grade terrains. Geologists who have no experience of mapping high-grade gneisses are often at a loss as to how to apply techniques to high grade ... Read more
