Описание:
Geologic Time Scale 2020 (2 volume set) contains contributions from 80+ leading scientists who present syntheses in an easy-to-understand format that includes numerous color charts, maps and photographs. In addition to detailed overviews of chronostratigraphy, evolution, geochemistry, sequence stratigraphy and planetary geology, the GTS2020 volumes have separate chapters on each geologic period with compilations of the history of divisions, the current GSSPs (global boundary stratotypes), detailed bio-geochem-sequence correlation charts, and derivation of the age models.
The authors are on the forefront of chronostratigraphic research and initiatives surrounding the creation of an international geologic time scale. The included charts display the most up-to-date, international standard as ratified by the International Commission on Stratigraphy and the International Union of Geological Sciences.
As the framework for deciphering the history of our planet Earth, this book is essential for practicing Earth Scientists and academics.

Описание: Deserts and desert margins cover nearly half the land area of the globe, are superb repositories of information on past climatic events, and are highly sensitive to possible future climate change. Understanding how deserts responded to past climatic changes can provide useful guidelines for future management of these unique environments.

Описание: An introduction to geologic fracture mechanics covering the common geologic structural discontinuities, for students, researchers and practitioners of structural geology, rock mechanics and reservoir geomechanics. It explores the formation, growth and interpretation of fractures and deformation bands, from theoretical and field-based perspectives.
Описание: Islands Through Time tells the remarkable story of the human and ecological history of California`s Northern Channel Islands. The resilience of the Chumash and Channel Island ecosystems provides a story of hope for a world increasingly threatened by climate change, declining biodiversity, and geopolitical instability.

Описание:
A Concise Geologic Time Scale: 2016 presents a summary of Earth's history over the past 4.5 billion years, as well as a brief overview of contemporaneous events on the Moon, Mars, and Venus. The authors have been at the forefront of chronostratigraphic research and initiatives to create an international geologic time scale for many years, and the charts in this book present the most up-to-date international standard, as ratified by the International Commission on Stratigraphy and the International Union of Geological Sciences.
This book is an essential reference for all geoscientists, including researchers, students, and petroleum and mining professionals. The presentation is non-technical and illustrated with numerous colour charts, maps and photographs. The book also includes a detachable laminated card of the complete time scale for use as a handy reference in the office, laboratory, or field.

Описание: A comprehensive overview of the geomorphological processes that shape rivers, combining process-based theoretical and geohistorical approaches. It discusses how the dynamics of rivers are being affected by human activity, and how river management techniques which work together with the dynamics of rivers can best be used to restore these systems.
With the state of global ice constantly in the news, one mountain journalist examines Canadian glaciers to uncover their secrets and their future.
From a mother/daughter duo who spent five months skiing across icefields from Vancouver to Alaska, to scientists discovering biofilms deep inside glacier caverns, to protesters camping for weeks to protect their beloved local glacier, western Canada's glaciers are dynamic, enigmatic, exquisitely beautiful, sometimes dangerous environments where people play, work, run businesses, explore, and create art every single day.
Author Lynn Martel is one of them. With gorgeous images by some of the country's best outdoor photographers, Stories of Ice shares the excitement, the mystery, and the wonder of Canada's glaciers and poses questions about their future.
