This is the first book dedicated to a better understanding of different styles of volcanism along a single volcanic arc. For each of the Aleutian volcanoes, a deformation model and the inferred magma plumbing system as well as relevant geophysical, geological and geochemical informatioan will be synthesized to provide insights into the volcanic system and its relation to nearby systems. For each Aleutian volcano, at least one high-resolution radar intensity image with unprecedented radiometric accuracy is presented to facilitate feature indentification and geomorphic studies. These images are...

The oceans cover 70% of the terrestrial surface, and exert a pervasive influence on the Earth's environment but their nature is poorly recognized. Knowing the ocean's role deeply and understanding the complex, physical, biological, chemical and geological systems operating within it represent a major challenge to scientists today. Seafloor observatories offer scientists new opportunites to study multiple, interrelated natural phenomena over time scales ranging from seconds to decades, from episodic to global and long-term processes.
