  • Understanding Sea-level Rise and Variability

    Edited by John A. Church, Philip L. Woodworth, Thorkild Aarup, W. Stanley Wilson ...
    Understanding Sea-Level Rise and Variability identifies the major impacts of sea-level rise, presents up-to-date assessments of past sea-level change, thoroughly explores all of the factors contributing to sea-level rise, and explores how sea-level extreme events might change. It identifies what is known in each area and what research and observations are required to reduce the uncertainties in ... Read more

  • Rising Seas

    Past, Present, Future

    by Vivien Gornitz ...
    The Earth's climate is already warming due to increased concentrations of human-produced greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and the specter of rising sea level is one of global warming's most far-reaching threats. Sea level will keep rising long after greenhouse gas emissions have ceased, because of the delay in penetration of surface warming to the ocean depths and because of the slow ... Read more

  • Atmosphere-Ocean Dynamics

    by Adrian Gill ...
    Series Book 30 - International Geophysics
    A systematic, unifying approach to the dynamics of the ocean and atmosphere is given in this book, with emphasis on the larger-scale motions (from a few kilometers to global scale). The foundations of the subject (the equations of state and dynamical equations) are covered in some detail, so that students with training in mathematics should find it a self-contained text. Knowledge of fluid ... Read more

  • A New Ecology

    Systems Perspective

    by Simone Bastianoni, Joao C. Marques, Felix Muller, S. Nors Nielsen, Bernard D. Patten, Enzo Tiezzi, Robert E. Ulanowicz, Sven Erik Jørgensen, Brian D. Fath ...
    A New Ecology presents an ecosystem theory based on the following ecosystem properties: physical openness, ontic openness, directionality, connectivity, a complex dynamic for growth and development, and a complex dynamic response to disturbances. Each of these properties is developed in detail to show that these basic and characteristic properties can be applied to explain a wide spectrum of ... Read more

  • Chemistry and Biology of Solid Waste

    Dredged Material and Mine Tailings

    Edited by Wim Salomons, Ulrich Förstner ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Dredged Material and Mine Tailings are two of the same thing once they are deposited on land: they must be safe-guarded, wash-out must be prevented, and they must be protected by a plantcover. This comprehensive treatise covers both important aspects of their management: In Chemistry and Biology of Solid Waste the principles and assessment are scientifically studied and discussed, while ...

  • The Marine Seismic Source

    by G.E. Parkes, L. Hatton ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book is about marine seismic sources, their history, their physical principles and their deconvolution. It is particularly accented towards the physical aspects rather than the mathematical principles of signature generation in water as it is these aspects which the authors have found to be somewhat neglected. A huge amount of research has been carried out by both commercial and academic ... Read more

  • Dynamics Of Coastal Systems (Second Edition)

    by Job Dronkers ...
    Series Book 41 - Advanced Series On Ocean Engineering
    The book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the physical processes which, according to the present state of knowledge, determine the evolution of coastal systems and their response to human interventions. This response depends to a large degree on the self-organising properties of coastal dynamics, which form a leading theme throughout the book. The basic theoretical ideas are ... Read more

  • Computerized Modeling of Sedimentary Systems

    Edited by Jan Harff, Wolfram Lemke, Karl Stattegger ...
    Computerized modeling is a powerful tool to describe the complex interrelations between measured data and the dynamics of sedimentary systems. Complex interaction of environmental factors with natural variations and increasing anthropogenic intervention is reflected in the sedimentary record at varying scales. The understanding of these processes gives way to the reconstruction of the past and is ... Read more
