  • Choosing a Map Projection

    Edited by Miljenko Lapaine, E. Lynn Usery ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book offers a much-needed critical approach to the intelligent use of the wide variety of map projections that are rapidly and inexpensively available today. It also discusses the distortions that are immanent in any map projection.A well-chosen map projection is one in which extreme distortions are smaller than those in any other projection used to map the same area and in which the map ...

  • Wave Fields in Real Media

    Wave Propagation in Anisotropic, Anelastic, Porous and Electromagnetic Media

    by José M. Carcione ...
    Series Book 38 - Handbook of Geophysical Exploration: Seismic Exploration
    Wave Fields in Real Media examines the differences between an ideal and a real description of wave propagation, where ideal means an elastic (lossless), isotropic and single-phase medium, and real means an anelastic, anisotropic and multi-phase medium. The analysis starts by introducing the relevant stress-strain relation. This relation and the equations of momentum conservation are combined to ... Read more
