Rock and Mineral Magnetism
ISBN: 9781468484700 / Angielski / Miękka / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The past two decades have witnessed a revolution in the earth sciences. The quantitative, instrument-based measurements and physical models of. geophysics, together with advances in technology, have radically transformed the way in which the Earth, and especially its crust, is described. The study of the magnetism of the rocks of the Earth's crust has played a major part in this transformation. Rocks, or more specifically their constituent magnetic minerals, can be regarded as a measuring instrument provided by nature, which can be employed in the service of the earth sciences. Thus magnetic...

Physics of Magmatic Processes
ISBN: 9780691615752 / Angielski / Miękka / 598 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While the chemical aspects of igneous petrology have dominated research for many years, the physical processes associated with the generation, transport, and crystallization of magma have been somewhat neglected. Here a group of distinguished scientists, whose current research embraces both chemical and physical aspects of the field, illustrates these new directions in igneous petrology. Originally published in 1980. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished...

The Occurrence of Trace Elements in Bed Sediment Collected from Areas of Varying
ISBN: 9781500206017 / Angielski / Miękka / 74 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As part of the National Water-Quality Assessment Pro- gram of the U.S. Geological Survey, this study examines the occurrence of nine trace elements in bed sediment of varying mineralogy and land use and assesses the possible effects of these trace elements on aquatic-macroinvertebrate community structure. Samples of bed sediment and macroinvertebrates were collected from 154 streams at sites representative of undeveloped, agricultural, urban, mined, or mixed land-use areas and 12 intermediate-scale ecoregions within the con- terminous western United States, Alaska, and Hawaii from 1992 to...

Equilibrium and Kinetics in Contact Metamorphism: The Ballachulish Igneous Complex and Its Aureole
ISBN: 9783642761478 / Angielski / Miękka / 484 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With the new global tectonics approach in the Earth Sciences, the quan titative aspects of the dynamics of rock-forming processes came into focus: geologists are no longer satisfied knowing the pressure-tempera ture conditions of the formation of a metamorphic rock or of the emplace ment of a magmatic body, but instead would like to learn the time history of these rocks as well, i. e., derive the temperature-pressure-time path and relate it to a tectonic process. To achieve this goal, a knowledge of both pressure-temperature-dependent equilibria and the time scales at which these equilibria...
