Paleozoic Rocks of Tunisia
This book offers a thorough examination of the Paleozoic units in southern Tunisia, exploring topics from lithostratigraphy to unconventional petroleum systems. It details key geological features like Ordovician glacial sediments and oil and gas shale in a North African context.
Lost World of Rēkohu
Lost World of Rēkohu explores the extraordinary fossil record of the Chatham Islands. This ancient land was forested with dinosaurs, and its warm waters hosted the largest sea monsters that ever lived—a tale of life in Zealandia never told before.
This book challenges traditional consensus on groundwater flow. Revising the theory’s mathematical and physical foundations, it improves analytical equations, debunks myths, and bridges the gap between steady-state and time-dependent calculations from a new perspective.
Jordan is an outdoor geological museum. This book offers simple, up-to-date findings and clear illustrations to help students, researchers, and non-geologists gain insight into Jordan’s unique geological set-up.
Climate Change and Geology
Uncover the ancient secrets of the Earth and discover how climate change is reshaping our planet. This book reveals the dynamic relationship between geology and our ever-changing climate, exploring the science behind melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and extreme weather.
Forensic Explosion Seismology
This book discusses active source seismology, focusing on the technologies and applications for underwater, nuclear, and chemical explosions. It presents seismological investigations for discriminating between earthquakes and man-made explosions for defense sciences.
This book focuses on the physical processes in the World Ocean which regulate natural climate variability. It analyses Atlantic and Indo-Pacific signals and assesses the ocean’s role in the recent hiatus of global warming and the probability of abrupt climate change.
In situ stress is vital for hydrocarbon exploration. This book presents methods for predicting its distribution in complex reservoirs, providing a basis for well placement, fracturing design, and development plans, combining the latest research with practical applications.
A guide to advanced wastewater treatment. Learn to measure, rank, and remove pollutants using methods like thermophilic digestion to prevent environmental disaster. An essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals in environmental protection.
Why We Study the Physics of the Ocean
This book reviews physical oceanography, from its history to its future challenges. It relates the physics of the ocean to topical issues like climate change and ocean forecasting, helping you understand how the ocean fits into the complex system of the global environment.
Green Tribology
Green tribology is a new field addressing global environmental and energy crises. This is the only academic monograph in the world which systematically validates the principles and practice of green tribology, featuring the author’s new concept of natural disaster tribology.
Mineral Resources in Iceland
This book honors the Icelandic coal miners who helped their nation survive the World Wars. The first overview of its kind, it covers the history of coal mining in Iceland, from the largest commercial galleries to the small pits used by local farmers.
Earth Science and Deuterium Nuclear Reactions
Many of Earth’s greatest mysteries—its internal heat, atmospheric composition, and the creation of elements—remain unsolved. This book shows these phenomena could be explained by nuclear fusion in our planet’s core, offering solutions to the problems now threatening our world.
This book presents the development and implementation of a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) numerical model for studying the initial spread of oil on a calm sea. The results are in concordance with James Fay’s pioneering predictions for oil slick diameters.
As sustainability becomes a priority for mining enterprises, operations must meet strict environmental safety provisions. This book highlights the problem of ensuring a future mining engineer’s environmental competence.
The Ages of the Earth
Considering cosmogonies, theological dogmas, natural philosophy, Deism and the inevitable secularism of the Age of Enlightenment, Álvaro recounts the struggle that the human mind has undertaken, over two millennia, against creationist myths.
This book discusses the state of the art of OSL dating of Late Quaternary deposits in the Amazonian lowlands. It introduces OSL dating principles, applications, sampling, statistical methods, and techniques adapted for this challenging region.
Lipid Oxidation Products
This book describes the neglected processes of photooxidation and autoxidation in phototrophs. It details their mechanisms, focusing on oxidation products as tracers, and discusses how temperature and solar irradiance affect them, impacting the ultimate fate of organic matter.
