  • Earthquakes and Water

    by Chi-yuen Wang, Michael Manga ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)

    $89.09 USD

  • Water and Earthquakes

    by Chi-Yuen Wang, Michael Manga ...
    Series series Lecture Notes in Earth System Sciences
    This open access book explores the interactions between water and earthquakes, including recent concerns about induced seismicity. It further highlights that a better understanding of the response of the water system to disturbances such as earthquakes is needed to safeguard water resources, to shield underground waste repositories, and to mitigate groundwater contamination. Although the effects ... Read more

  • The Physics of Glaciers

    by Kurt M. Cuffey, W. S. B. Paterson ...
    The Physics of Glaciers, Fourth Edition, discusses the physical principles that underlie the behavior and characteristics of glaciers. The term glacier refers to all bodies of ice created by the accumulation of snowfall, e.g., mountain glaciers, ice caps, continental ice sheets, and ice shelves. Glaciology—the study of all forms of ice—is an interdisciplinary field encompassing physics, geology, ... Read more

  • Paleoclimates

    Understanding Climate Change Past and Present

    by Thomas Cronin ...
    The field of paleoclimatology relies on physical, chemical, and biological proxies of past climate changes that have been preserved in natural archives such as glacial ice, tree rings, sediments, corals, and speleothems. Paleoclimate archives obtained through field investigations, ocean sediment coring expeditions, ice sheet coring programs, and other projects allow scientists to reconstruct ... Read more

  • Hillslope Hydrology and Stability

    by Jonathan W. Godt, Ning Lu ...
    Landslides are caused by a failure of the mechanical balance within hillslopes. This balance is governed by two coupled physical processes: hydrological or subsurface flow and stress. The stabilizing strength of hillslope materials depends on effective stress, which is diminished by rainfall. This book presents a cutting-edge quantitative approach to understanding hydro-mechanical processes across ... Read more

  • Impact Cratering

    Processes and Products

    by G. R. Osinski, E. Pierazzo ...
    Impact cratering is arguably the most ubiquitous geological process in the Solar System. It has played an important role in Earth’s history, shaping the geological landscape, affecting the evolution of life, and generating economic resources. However, it was only in the latter half of the 20th century that the importance of impact cratering as a geological process was recognized and only during ... Read more

  • Carbonatite Volcanism

    Oldoinyo Lengai and the Petrogenesis of Natrocarbonatites

    Edited by Jörg Keller, Keith Bell ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    During the last few years, carbonatites have received a considerable amount of attention. Some of this interest was no doubt kindled by the importance of volatiles in the Earth's mantle, particularly CO , by the fact that carbonatites 2 can be used to monitor the chemical evolution of the sub-continental upper mantle, and by the fact that carbonatites may be effective metasomatizing agents at both ...
