  • Surge Tectonics: A New Hypothesis of Global Geodynamics

    par Arthur A. Meyerhoff, I. Taner, A.E.L. Morris, W.B. Agocs, M. Kamen-Kaye, Mohammad I. Bhat, N. Christian Smoot, Dong R. Choi ...
    Collection Livre 9 - Solid Earth Sciences Library
    TECTONlCS AND PHYSICS Geology, although rooted in the laws of physics, rarely has been taught in a manner designed to stress the relations between the laws and theorems of physics and the postulates of geology. The same is true of geophysics, whose specialties (seismology, gravimetIy, magnetics, magnetotellurics) deal only with the laws that govern them, and not with those that govern geology's ...

  • Meteorites

    Messengers from Space

    par Fritz Heide, Frank Wlotzka ...
    Traduit par R.S.Jr. Clarke, Frank Wlotzka ...
    Collection series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Meteorites - as well as shooting stars and meteors - result from a collision of a solid body from space with our Earth, but only meteorites are able to penetrate the Earth's protective shield, the atmosphere, and fall to the Earth's surface. Before the return of lunar samples, they were the only materials from beyond the Earth which we could take in hand and study.This book gives a concise and up ... En savoir plus

  • Noctilucent Clouds

    par Michael Gadsden, Wilfried Schröder ...
    Collection series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    An atmospheric phenomenon is considered as 'explained' when we have succeeded in deducing it on the basis of accepted principles of physics. (H. Ertel, Methods and problems of dynamical meteorolo gy,p. l) Until recently, noctilucent clouds were regarded merely as a curious atmos pheric phenomenon, the occurrence of which aroused only limited scientific attention. However, in the last two decades ... En savoir plus

  • The Twin Sister Planets Venus and Earth

    Why are they so different?

    par Robert J. Malcuit ...
    Collection series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book explains how it came to be that Venus and Earth, while very similar in chemical composition, zonation, size and heliocentric distance from the Sun, are very different in surface environmental conditions. It is argued here that these differences can be accounted for by planetoid capture processes and the subsequent evolution of the planet-satellite system. Venus captured a one-half moon ...

  • The State of Deformation in Earthlike Self-Gravitating Objects

    par Wolf Weiss, Wolfgang H. Müller ...
    Collection series Engineering (R0)
    This book presents an in-depth continuum mechanics analysis of the deformation due to self-gravitation in terrestrial objects, such as the inner planets, rocky moons and asteroids. Following a brief history of the problem, modern continuum mechanics tools are presented in order to derive the underlying field equations, both for solid and fluid material models. Various numerical solution techniques ... En savoir plus

  • Synchronization and Triggering: from Fracture to Earthquake Processes

    Laboratory, Field Analysis and Theories

    Modifié par Valerio de Rubeis, Zbigniew Czechowski, Roman Teisseyre ...
    Collection series GeoPlanet: Earth and Planetary Sciences
    Processes of synchronization and interaction play a very special role in different physical problems concerning the dynamics of the Earth’s interior; they are of particular importance in the study of seismic phenomena, and their complexity is strongly affected by the variety of geological structures and inhomogeneities of the medium that hamper the course of these processes and their intensity. ...

  • Earth's Early Atmosphere and Oceans, and The Origin of Life

    par George H. Shaw ...
    Collection series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the chemical nature of the Earth’s early surface environment and how that led to the origin of life. This includes a detailed discussion of the likely process by which life emerged using as much quantitative information as possible. The emergence of life and the prior surface conditions of the Earth have implications for the evolution of Earth’s ... En savoir plus

  • Lunar and Planetary Cartography in Russia

    par Vladislav Shevchenko, Zhanna Rodionova, Gregory Michael ...
    Collection series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book is the first to document in depth the history of lunar and planetary cartography in Russia. The first map of the far side of the Moon was made with the participation of Lomonosov Moscow University (Sternberg Astronomical Institute, MSU) in 1960. The developed mapping technologies were then used in preparing the “Complete Map of the Moon” in 1967 as well as other maps and globes. Over the ... En savoir plus

  • Physics of Lakes

    Volume 1: Foundation of the Mathematical and Physical Background

    par Kolumban Hutter, Irina P. Chubarenko, Yongqi Wang ...
    Collection series Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics
    This first volume in the treatise on the Physics of Lakes deals with the formulation of the mathematical and physical background. A large number of lakes on Earth are described, presenting their morphology as well as the causes of their response to the driving environment. Because the physics of lakes cannot be described without the language used in mathematics, these subjects are introduced first ... En savoir plus

  • Distal Impact Ejecta Layers

    A Record of Large Impacts in Sedimentary Deposits

    par Billy P. Glass, Bruce M. Simonson ...
    Collection series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Impact cratering is an important geological process on all solid planetary bodies, and, in the case of Earth, may have had major climatic and biological effects. Most terrestrial impact craters have been erased or modified beyond recognition. However, major impacts throw ejecta over large areas of the Earth's surface. Recognition of these impact ejecta layers can help fill in the gaps in the ... En savoir plus
