Assessment of Landslides Susceptibility
ISBN: 9783639154771 / Angielski / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Shallow landslides or slope failures have been
studied from several points of view. In particular, numerous methods embedded in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications have been developed to assess slope stability. However, little work has been done on the systematic comparison of different techniques to outline advantages and limitations, due to the difficulties of assessing a model in both natural and theoretical conditions. The lack of study of the systematic comparison of landslide models at different cartographic scales, DEM resolutions, and sampling strategies not... Shallow landslides or slope failures have been

Seismic Risk Assessment and Retrofitting: With Special Emphasis on Existing Low Rise Structures
ISBN: 9789048126804 / Angielski / Twarda / 495 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume covers the interdisciplinary field of disaster mitigatition against earthquakes with special emphasis on prevention of total collapse of existing low rise buildings towards reduction of life losses and economical assets. Rehabilitation of thousands of low-rise buildings in many big cities located in earthquake prone areas, is practically impossible even though there are experimentally and analytically approved intervention techniques to protect these existing buildings. It is simply not possible to find a proper way and proper amount of financial support to do this job. It will...

Ground-Water Vulnerability
ISBN: 9783639094275 / Angielski / Miękka / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nonpoint-source contamination is a substantial threat to ground-water resources. Understanding ground-water vulnerability (GWV) to non-point-source contamination is necessary to implement best management practices for resource protection and remediation. However, reaching such understanding is often complicated because of the inherent spatial and temporal variability of hydrogeologic properties of the aquifer, land-use practices, and climate change and variability. This book provides an overview of approaches for improved under-standing of GWV and has specific application to the High Plains ...

Carbonate Cementation in Sandstones : Distribution Patterns and Geochemical Evolution
ISBN: 9780632047772 / Angielski / Twarda / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Carbonate cements are very common and abundant in clastic sequences. They profoundly influence the quality of hydrocarbon reservoirs and supply important information on palaeoenvironments and the chemical composition and flow patterns of fluids in sedimentary basins. Despite this importance, their distribution patterns in time and space and their geochemical evolution are not yet deeply explored and elucidated. This Special Publication contains 21 review papers and case studies on carbonate cementation in clastic sequences written by invited specialists on the subject. These papers present a...

Gas hydrate occurence and morpho-structures along Chilean margin
ISBN: 9783639168761 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the last decades, the scientific community
spent many efforts to study the gas hydrates in oceanic and permafrost environments. In fact, the gas hydrate occurrence has a global significance because it is a potential energy resource. Moreover, it may play a role in global climate change. The detection of a bottom-simulating reflector (BSR), by using seismic methods, has allowed to define the distribution of gas hydrate. In the last decades, along the Chilean continental margin the BSR is well reported by several geophysical cruises. In particular, the BSR is recognized along...

Sustainable Natural Hazard Management in Alpine Environments
ISBN: 9783642032288 / Angielski / Twarda / 420 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the recent past a marked increase of the damages caused by natural hazard processes has been documented, for example by the Munich Re-Insurance. On a regional scale, a similar development can be observed in mountain regions such as the Alps, where it is particularly a rise in flood events that has caused the maximum amount of economic damage. Three major aspects may help to explain this phenomenon: The changing frequency-magnitude relationship of the natural hazard processes, the multiplication of the damage potential due to the socio-economic change, and the non-adequate way of coping...

Numerical Groundwater Flow Modelling
ISBN: 9783639169201 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Groundwater flow modelling is important to calculate the quantity and quality of groundwater for better protection and management. The modelled aquifer is extensively used for irrigation, municipal, and domestic water supplies and this study documents the development and calibration of a numerical model to simulate the groundwater flow. The model is also used to show interaction between groundwater and surface water. A three-dimensional groundwater flow model, with one unconfined layer, was used to simulate groundwater flow in the Lake Awassa Basin. A sensitivity analysis to changes in model...

Principles of Geology: An Attempt to Explain the Former Changes of the Earth's Surface, by Reference to Causes Now in Operation
ISBN: 9781108001359 / Angielski / Miękka / 540 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1830 33, Charles Lyell laid the foundations of evolutionary biology with Principles of Geology, a pioneering three-volume book that Charles Darwin took with him on the Beagle. Lyell championed the ideas of geologist James Hutton, who formulated one of the fundamental principles of modern geology uniformitarianism. This proposed that natural processes always operate according to the same laws, allowing us to understand how features of the Earth's surface were produced by physical, chemical, and biological processes over long periods of time. Volume 1 consists of 26 chapters, a comprehensive...
