  • Basement Correlation Across the North Atlantic

    Translated by M.S.N. Carpenter ...
    by Jean-Pierre Lefort ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Major structural features are used in this study to reconstruct the links which existed between North America, Europe and Africa before the opening of the North Atlantic Ocean. The synthesis of geophysical and geochemical data as well as geological observations allows the recognition of the original geometry of the Grenvillian, Cadomian, Caledonian, Ligerian-Acadian and Hercynian foldbelts and the ...

  • 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 ...

  • Wind Generated Ocean Waves

    by I.R. Young ...
    Series Book 2 - Elsevier Ocean Engineering Series
    The goals of wind wave research are relatively well defined: to be able to predict the wind wave field and its effect on the environment. That environment could be natural (beaches, the atmosphere etc.) or imposed by human endeavour (ports, harbours, coastal settlements etc.). Although the goals are similar, the specific requirements of these various fields differ considerably.This book attempts ... Read more

  • Absolute Age Determination

    Physical and Chemical Dating Methods and Their Application

    by Mebus A. Geyh, Helmut Schleicher ...
    Translated by Clark Newcomb ...
    With the growing recognition during the last two centuries that the Earth has an immense age and processes over long periods of time have changed the morphology and composition of the Earth's crust, geologists have become increasingly interested in determination of absolute ages. A rela tive geochronology was established on the basis of the lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic principles ... Read more

  • The Geology and Mapping of Granite Batholiths

    by John Cobbing ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book is mainly about the field geology of granites at all scales from that of a single outcrop to plutons and batholiths. All field geologists work initially at the scale of the outcrop, consequently most of the phenomena treated herein are those which are visible at outcrop scale. However, granites typically occur as plutons and batholiths, some of which are so large as to apparently defy ... Read more

  • Wave Interactions As a Seismo-acoustic Source

    by Alick C. Kibblewhite, Cheng Y. Wu ...
    Series Book 59 - Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences
    This book gives a comprehensive, theoretical account of the wave-wave interaction process responsible for high acoustic noise levels, including: a geometric description of the interaction mechanism, which provides the basis for a full-wave analysis of the source process, the inclusion of both the monogeneous and inhomogeneous components of the wave-induced pressure field in the analytical ...

  • Thermal Signatures of Heat Transfer Processes in the Earth’s Crust

    Translated by C. Newcomb ...
    by Christoph Clauser ...
    Series Book 85 - Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences
    This book deals with the signatures left by geodynamic proceses in the temperature field of the Earth's crust. First, it introduces briefly the established, indirect methods for interpreting the present termperature field and methods for reconstructing the thermal fields of the geological past. Then the spatial and temporal scales that are relevant for heat transport processes are described. This ... Read more

  • Sedimentary Basins

    Evolution, Facies, and Sediment Budget

    by Gerhard Einsele ...
    The modern geological sciences are characterized by extraordinarily rapid progress, as well as by the development and application of numerous new and refined methods,most of them handling an enormous amount of data available from all the continents and oceans. Given this state of affairs, it seams inevitable that many students and professionals tend to become experts in relatively narrow fields ... Read more

    Edited by Nilgün Okay, Naci Görür, Gerassimos A. Papadopoulos ...
    Series Book 9 - NATO Science Series: IV
    In 1999, two earthquakes occurred in the Istanbul-Marmara region of Turkey and the Athens-Corinth region of Greece, and an increased risk of further events caused great concern among the earth science community. This book presents and discusses the latest results from studies of the Izmit-Düzce and Athens earthquakes and assesses the data that are available and relevant to the geology, seismology, ...

  • Hydrogeology of Crystalline Rocks

    Edited by Kurt Bucher, I. Stober ...
    Series Book 34 - Water Science and Technology Library
    Hydrogeology of Crystalline Rocks deals with deep groundwater in the granite and gneiss basement of the continents. It has become evident during the past years that highly mineralized water is present in an interconnected fracture network of the basement. Thus, the upper part of the crust of the continents can be viewed as an aquifer and investigated with tools common in hydrogeology.This book ... Read more
