This book is a collection of studies and essays regarding geosciences contributed by many of the leading experts in this field. Extracting data from chaotic systems in geosciences has become pretty easy due to fractal analysis. It is being used to deal with a lot of problems in this field. This book presents latest applications of fractal and multifractal assessments in geoscience. It discusses the functioning of the fractal evaluation in climatology and data of cosmic and solar geomagnetic data from experiments. It concludes with special focus on the usage of multi fractal estimation in...

The essential concepts of oceanography are descriptively discussed in this advanced book. Oceanography is a quintessential interdisciplinary science and because of its unique setting inside a fluid environment, it makes connections highly effective. These ocean connections have been well elucidated in this book and it reflects a quite explicit multi-environmental and multi-disciplinary character. This book comprises of information regarding distinct topics under extremely distinct settings, with both focused as well as broad-view approaches. It lays stress on the idea that there is a need to...

This book is a single binding account covering all the major aspects of oceanography. Arthur C. Clarke once said, "How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is quite clearly Ocean." The origin of life stems from the oceans and the entire diversity of life across the world is modulated by marine and oceanic processes. All the processes ranging from micro-scale, like coastal processes, to macro-scale, like those in the seas, the oceans and the marine life, play a vital role in maintaining the equilibrium of this planet, both from chemical as well as physical viewpoints. Since the...
