  • Rocks Of The World

    Rocks and Minerals Book For Kids

    by Speedy Publishing ...
    Kids find that their imagination starts to grow when they learn about new things and rocks and minerals are a natural aspect of the outdoors but kids tend to not take time to really look closely at each one. Learning about the big and little details of both helps kids imagine where rocks have been, how they got to where they were found and what caused minerals to form and take shape; all of these ...

    A Scholarly Entertainment

    by William W. Hay ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book is a thorough introduction to climate science and global change. The author is a geologist who has spent much of his life investigating the climate of Earth from a time when it was warm and dinosaurs roamed the land, to today's changing climate. Bill Hay takes you on a journey to understand how the climate system works. He explores how humans are unintentionally conducting a grand ... Read more

  • Pyrite

    A Natural History of Fool's Gold

    by David Rickard ...
    Most people have heard of pyrite, the brassy yellow mineral sometimes known as fool's gold. Pyrite behaves like stone and shines like metal, and its dual nature makes it a source of both metals and sulfur. Despite being the most common sulfide mineral on the earth's surface, pyrite's bright crystals have attracted the attention of many different cultures, and its nearly identical visual appearance ...

  • Evolution of Archean Crust and Early Life

    Edited by Yildirim Dilek, Harald Furnes ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book presents an integrated approach to the study of the evolution of the Archean lithosphere, biosphere and atmosphere, and as such it is a unique contribution to our understanding of the early Earth and life. The structural and geochemical make-up of both the oceanic and continental crust of the Archean Earth is documented in some case studies of various cratons, and the implications of the ... Read more

  • Handbook of Slope Stabilisation

    Edited by J. A. R. Ortigao, Alberto Sayao ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book is aimed at the practising engineer and engineering geologist working in tropical environments, where lands lides are mainly triggered by rain fall. This book is based on a similar work published in 1999 in Portuguese, which became the Rio de Janeiro Slope Manual. This book is an engineering guide for the design of slopes and stabilisation works in rocks and residual soils. It evolves ... Read more

  • Introduction to Environmental Modeling

    by William G. Gray, Genetha A. Gray ...
    This textbook presents an understanding of how basic physical descriptions can be translated into mathematical analogues that provide an opportunity to investigate environmental processes. Examples come from a range of hydrologic, atmospheric, and geophysical problems. The emphasis is on simple examples and calculations that add to understanding. The book provides a sense for the meaning of ... Read more

  • Physical Soil Mechanics

    by Gerd Gudehus ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Soil is matter in its own right. Its nature can be captured by means of monotonous, cyclic and strange attractors. Thus material properties are defined by the asymptotic response of sand- and clay-like samples to imposed deformations and stresses. This serves to validate and calibrate elastoplastic and hypoplastic relations with comparative plots. Extensions capture thermal and seismic activations ... Read more

  • Groundwater in Ethiopia

    Features, Numbers and Opportunities

    by Seifu Kebede ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book provides a comprehensive description of groundwater resources in Ethiopia and its various dimensions (groundwater as resource, environmental functions, and socioeconomics). The prevailing knowledge of groundwater resources in Ethiopia (or elsewhere in Sub Saharan Africa) was based on geological and stratigraphic framework known nearly four decades ago (mainly 1960's and 70's). Thanks to ... Read more

  • Charles Lyell and Modern Geology

    by Thomas George Bonney ...
    Lyell, while still a young man, determined that he would endeavour to put geology--then only beginning to rank as a science--on a more sound and philosophical basis. To accomplish this purpose, he spared no labour, grudged no expenditure, shrank from no fatigue. ... Read more

  • Seismic Design and Assessment of Bridges

    Inelastic Methods of Analysis and Case Studies

    Edited by Andreas J Kappos, M. Saiid Saiidi, M. Nuray Aydınoğlu, Tatjana Isaković ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The book focuses on the use of inelastic analysis methods for the seismic assessment and design of bridges, for which the work carried out so far, albeit interesting and useful, is nevertheless clearly less than that for buildings. Although some valuable literature on the subject is currently available, the most advanced inelastic analysis methods that emerged during the last decade are currently ... Read more
