Geoheritage: Assessment, Protection, and Management, Second Edition provides a comprehensive exploration of geoheritage, beginning with an introduction to geodiversity and progressing to the characterisation of in situ and ex situ geoheritage, its protection and...
There are many books devoted to palaeontology and fossils. However, none have yet dealt with the processes of fossilization, from the formation of the most common fossils to the more exceptional mineralization of animal remains, plants, micro-organisms and even...
This book provides a conceptual framework, presenting a description and modelling of the regulating mechanisms of supply, demand and supply-demand dynamics, sketches the most relevant classification systems of phosphorus deposits and outlines how they are related and...
In the Black Sea, an unprecedented intensity of gas discharge of the seabed in the form of jet emissions (gas seeps, torches, flares) and fountains of gas emissions from mud volcanoes have been established, which are described in detail in the monograph. However, the...
A comprehensive review of salt deposition in sedimentary environments worldwide Salt is formed when water rich in evaporite minerals accumulates on the Earth’s surface and then evaporates. Over time, pressure and tectonics change the structure and shape of salt layers....
A comprehensive review of giant salt basins, salt tectonic events, and their global implications Salt is formed when water rich in evaporite minerals accumulates on the Earth’s surface and then evaporates. Over time, pressure and tectonics change the structure and shape...
Telling the story of the four-billion-year history of Earth and life, this book attempts to answer some of our most fundamental questions: how did our Earth come to be? How did the Earth's oceans, atmosphere, and climate form? How did life begin? Following the timeline...
This volume presents a comprehensive overview of Mt. Kusatsu-Shirane, one of the most active volcanoes in Japan in terms of persistent release of volatile as volcanic gas and hot springs. The unexpected eruption of Kusatsu-Shirane volcano on January 23, 2018, caused...
This book is about abiotic selection in Earth surface systems. It demonstrates that seemingly purposeful or goal-oriented phenomena in Earth's processes actually emerge from selection dynamics. While many think of selection in the context of biological evolution, it...
Guided by organic geochemical methodologies, this book conducts a comparative analysis of the characteristics of oil source rocks deposited across various geological eras within typical continental oil-bearing basins, revisits several issues concerning the oil...
This book presents the geomorphological diversity of England and Wales. These regions are characterised by an extraordinary range of landforms and landscapes, reflecting both the occurrence of many different rock types and drastic climatic changes over the last few...
Allow yourself to be taken back into deep geologic time when strange creatures roamed the Earth and Western North America looked completely unlike the modern landscape. Volcanic islands stretched from Mexico to Alaska, most of the Pacific Rim didn’t exist yet, at...
This volume is considered as a unique book outlining new advances in seismotectonic research of the East Mediterranean-Red Sea Region (EMRSR). The dedicated chapters will outline the region in terms of tectonic segmentation, kinematics, and possible causes of it. It...
This book highlights a detailed high-resolution palynofacies origin and depositional environment, source rock potential, hydrocarbon migration pathway and structural hydrocarbon entrapment mechanisms of the outcrop lithostratigraphic units of the inland Anambra basin....
This book systematically clarifies the casing deformation prevention and control technologies based on the integration of research area of both geology and engineering. These technologies incorporate reservoir geomechanics, casing deformation mechanics and hydraulic...
This book covers Martian Aeolian Geomorphology and is organized around three main foci. The first focus is about advancing our understanding of aeolian geomorphology through research on Martian aeolian landforms. Chapters 1 through 4 provide essential...
The world’s leading student text on physical volcanology offers an unmatched introduction to the field In the revised second edition of Fundamentals of Physical Volcanology, the authors provide a comprehensive introduction to the processes that control when and how...
The science of geology is intertwined with the growth of the field in Argentina. This book explores those dual historical developments and, as an expanded translation of Historia de la Geología Argentina: Una Crónica de Más de Dos Siglos, shares...
This book represents a pioneering effort, offering a comprehensive summary of the Geoheritage of the Southwestern Pacific (SW Pacific). Despite its globally significant Geoheritage , the region has not yet been addressed in its entirety within a cohesive geocultural...
