Precambrian Geology of Finland
Elsevier Science 2005; US$ 250.00Focusing on the Precambrian in the central part of the Fennoscandian Shield, the book combines the results from modern geological and geophysical research into a detailed petrologic, lithologic, and structural synthesis and interpretation of the Archean and Proterozoic of Finland. It will be of value to anyone interested in the evolution of the shield... more...
CROP Project
Elsevier Science 2005; US$ 490.00This book presents and discusses new data ranging from Alps to Africa, obtained by the CROP PROJECT (transcrustal seismic exploration of the Mediterranean and Italy). New lithospheric imagings of relevant importance for understanding disputed topics are provided. Alps, Apennines, Calabrian Arc, Sicilian Apennine, Maghrebian Chain, Corso-Sardinian Block,... more...
Understanding Late Devonian and Permian-Triassic Biotic and Climatic Events
Elsevier Science 2005; US$ 200.00The Late Devonian and Permian-Triassic intervals are among the most dynamic episodes of Earth history, marked by large secular changes in continental ecosystems, dramatic fluctuations in ocean oxygenation, major phases of biotic turnover, volcanism, bolide impact events, and rapid fluctuations in stable isotope systems and sea level. This volume highlights... more...
Geochemical Reaction Modeling
Oxford University Press 1996; US$ 119.99An overview of the use of numerical methods to model reaction processes in the Earth's crust and on its surface. The theoretical foundations of the field are discussed, together with examples and case studies demonstrating the techniques that can be applied to scientific and practical problems. more...
High Pressure Geochemistry & Mineral Physics
Elsevier Science 2004; US$ 259.00Significant achievements have been made at the cross-roads of physics and planetary science. In the second half of the twentieth century, the discipline of planetary sciences has witnessed three major episodes which have revolutionized its approach and content: (i) the plate-tectonic theory, (ii) human landing and discoveries in planetary astronomy... more...
Numerical Adventures with Geochemical Cycles
Oxford University Press 1991; US$ 99.99An examination of global geochemical cycles - the processes that control the chemical composition of the environment, particularly the ocean and the atmosphere. Emphasis is placed on the methods used to calculate the composition of the environment, and to calculate changes that may occur. more...
