  • Earth and Life Processes Discovered from Subseafloor Environments

    A Decade of Science Achieved by the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP)

    by Fumio Inagaki, Ruediger Stein, Donna Blackman, Hans-Christian Larsen ...
    Series Book 7 - Developments in Marine Geology
    The Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP: 2000-2013) has provided crucial records of past and present processes and interactions within and between the biosphere, cryosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere. Research in IODP encompasses a wide range of fundamental and applied issues that affect society, such as global climate change, biodiversity, the origin of life, natural hazards ... Read more

  • Vanished Ocean

    by Dorrik Stow ...
    This is a book about an ocean that vanished six million years ago - the ocean of Tethys. Named after a Greek sea nymph, there is a sense of mystery about such a vast, ancient ocean, of which all that remains now are a few little pools, like the Caspian Sea. There were other great oceans in the history of the Earth - Iapetus, Panthalassa - but Tethys was the last of them, vanishing a mere moment ... Read more

  • Global Environment

    Water, Air, and Geochemical Cycles - Second Edition

    by Elizabeth Kay Berner, Robert A. Berner ...
    The new revised edition of a classic Earth science textThis newly revised edition of Global Environment discusses the major elements of the geochemical cycles and global fluxes found in the atmosphere, land, lakes, rivers, biota, and oceans, as well as the human effects on these fluxes. Retaining the strengths of the original edition while incorporating the latest discoveries, this textbook takes ... Read more

  • The Analysis of Diffuse Triple Junction Zones in Plate Tectonics and the Pirate Model of Western Caribbean Tectonics

    by D. Fraser Keppie ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Modern researchers in plate tectonics may be concerned with the analysis of distributed deformation across diffuse plate boundaries and triple junction zones. This book extends classic methods of kinematic analysis first developed in the 1960s to the more general scenarios of diffuse deformation zones between plates. The analytic methods presented specifically target the non-rigid deformation ... 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 ...

  • The Mid-Oceanic Ridges

    Mountains Below Sea Level

    Translated by T. Reimer ...
    by Adolphe Nicolas ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Over the past 20 years, geologists have come to realize that the real object of their studies is the Earth, and that their favorite subjects, whether basalts, earthquakes, or the Tibetan plateau (for example) are only the means to understanding the Earth itself as a complete entity. Geology has thus acquired aglobai perspective. The study of any particular regional problem is only of general ... Read more

  • Sedimentary Basins

    Evolution, Facies, and Sediment Budget

    by Gerhard Einsele ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    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

  • Planktic Foraminifers in the Modern Ocean

    by Ralf Schiebel, Christoph Hemleben ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book provides a comprehensive overview of the taxonomy, biology, sedimentation, and carbonate geochemistry of modern species. Students, early career and advanced scientists alike will profit from a broad synthesis of the current understanding of planktic foraminifers as an ecological indicator, biogeochemical factories, and proxies in paleoceanography. The classification of modern species is ... Read more

  • Pitfalls of Shoreline Stabilization

    Selected Case Studies

    Edited by Orrin H. Pilkey, J. Andrew G. Cooper ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    At the coast all is not what it seems. Decades of beachfront development have seen a variety of efforts to stabilize the shoreline to protect ill-placed beachfront property, both from shoreline erosion and from storm damage. Both of these problems become increasingly critical in a time of rising sea level. Many natural beaches are backed by sea walls, while others have been transformed by whole ... Read more

  • Impact of Climate Change and Human Activity on the Eco-environment

    An Analysis of the Xisha Islands

    by Liqiang Xu ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This study describes the fundamentals of assessing the vulnerability of coral islands, as well as environmental management and resource exploitation. Using seabird subfossils, such as bones, guano, eggshells etc., which have been well preserved on the Xisha Islands in the South China Sea, the author identifies the influences of climate change and human activity on seabird populations and diets. ...

  • The Relevance of Manganese in the Ocean for the Climatic Cycles in the Quaternary

    Vorgelegt in der Sitzung vom 18. November 1989

    by Augusto Mangini, Anton Eisenhauer, Peter Walter ...
    Series series Sitzungsber.Heidelberg 90
    It is widely accepted that there is a relationship between ice volume and the solar insolation in summer in the northern hemisphere. The Earth's glacial cycles are driven by cyclic changes in the Earth's orbital elements. This conclusion is based on the strong coherence between the approx. 20000 and 40000 year spectral components of ice volume and insolation (Milankovitch-curve) records. These ... Read more

  • 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 ...
