  • - A Self-Study Guide with Computer Exercises
    av Charles Fox
    860,-

    The quantity, diversity and availability of transport data is increasing rapidly, requiring new skills in the management and interrogation of data and databases.

  •  
    796,-

    This book is focused on the basics of applying thermochronology to geological and tectonic problems, with the emphasis on fission-track thermochronology.

  • - Processes, Deposits, Geology and Resources
    av Ray Cas
    2 276,-

    This book is a substantially updated, revised and extended version of the book Volcanic Successions, published by Cas and Wright back in 1987. Divided into six major parts, it offers comprehensive information on magma properties; fragmentation processes; subaerial and subaqueous lava types and field textures; sub-volcanic intrusions; explosive or pyroclastic eruptions and deposits; surface sedimentary processes; hydrothermal alteration and lithification, and effects on volcanic rock textures; terminology and approaches to describing and mapping volcanic rocks and terrains; geology of volcanoes and facies models; volcanism and tectonic setting; and to conclude, volcanic-hosted resources. It is a highly up-to-date text, presenting a coherent flow of topics, together with excellent visual material to illustrate key points and deposit features. The new authorship team consists of Ray Cas, Guido Giordano and John Wright, all of whom have extensive experience across the complete spectrum of volcanological processes and deposit types discussed in this exciting new book. The authors approach the diversity of products in volcanic terrains as facies, and use facies analysis and interpretation as a means of constructing facies models for different volcanic settings and their resources. ­The book is intended as a textbook and research reference book for senior undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and professionals alike.

  • - MATLAB (R) and Design Recipes for Earth Sciences
    av Martin H. Trauth & Elisabeth Sillmann
    746 - 1 090,-

    This volume introduces students to each phase of a typical data analysis project in the earth sciences, from preliminary research through data processing in MATLAB to presenting the results. It features numerous examples and tips on using internet resources.

  • av Bernward Holting & Wilhelm G. Coldewey
    596 - 950,-

  • - The Karthaus Summer School Lecture Notes
     
    676,-

    They cover theory, methods, and observations, and introduce readers to essential glaciological topics such as ice-flow dynamics, polar meteorology, mass balance, ice-core analysis, paleoclimatology, remote sensing and geophysical methods, glacial isostatic adjustment, modern and past glacial fluctuations, and ice sheet reconstruction.

  • - Virtual field trips through the Nature of the past
     
    860,-

    This book simulates a historical walk through nature, teaching readers about the biodiversity on Earth in various eras with a focus on past terrestrial environments.

  • - MATLAB (R) Recipes for Data Acquisition in Earth Sciences
    av Martin H. Trauth
    726,-

    This textbook introduces methods of geoscientific data acquisition using MATLAB in combination with inexpensive data acquisition hardware such as sensors in smartphones, sensors that come with the LEGO MINDSTORMS set, webcams with stereo microphones, and affordable spectral and thermal cameras. The text includes 35 exercises in data acquisition, such as using a smartphone to acquire stereo images of rock specimens from which to calculate point clouds, using visible and near-infrared spectral cameras to classify the minerals in rocks, using thermal cameras to differentiate between different types of surface such as between soil and vegetation, localizing a sound source using travel time differences between pairs of microphones to localize a sound source, quantifying the total harmonic distortion and signal-to-noise ratio of acoustic and elastic signals, acquiring and streaming meteorological data using application programming interfaces, wireless networks, and internet of things platforms, determining the spatial resolution of ultrasonic and optical sensors, and detecting magnetic anomalies using a smartphone magnetometer mounted on a LEGO MINDSTORMS scanner. The book¿s electronic supplementary material (available online through Springer Link) contains recipes that include all the MATLAB commands featured in the book, the example data, the LEGO construction plans, photos and videos of the measurement procedures.
