Active Galactic Nuclei: Saas-Fee Advanced Course 20. Lecture Notes 1990. Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy
ISBN: 9783540532859 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy organizes each year in the late winter or early spring an advanced course. The format of the school is always iden tical: three leading lecturers are invited to cover the subject in nine or ten lectures each and to deliver a written version of their lecture notes. Lectures are held in the morning and late afternoon, thus leaving ample time for discussion and skiing. These arrangements prove very convivial and lead to an excellent atmosphere in which to learn exciting new subjects and establish contacts with colleagues. A wide variety of people...

Origin of Earthquakes
ISBN: 9780521112215 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Written in 1912 by the Cambridge scholar and mathematician Charles Davison, The Origin of Earthquakes offers an overview of what Davison described as 'the varied phenomena of earthquakes'. Using case studies from around the world, Davison considers the origin of several different classes of earthquakes, including simple, twin and complex. Further attention is devoted to the growth of faults, fore-shocks and after-shocks, sympathetic earthquakes, earthquake sounds and distribution, with supplementary illustrations and maps. Offering contemporary assessments of events ranging from the...

A History of British Earthquakes
ISBN: 9780521140997 / Angielski / Miękka / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. First published in 1924, this classic volume details the history of British earthquakes from the year 974 to the beginning of the twentieth century. Building on material laid out in his 1912 volume The Origin of British Earthquakes, Charles Davison based his method of investigation on the theory that earthquakes were the results of successive steps in the growth of faults. Using a modification of the well-known Rossi Forel scale, and with reference to the latest scientific studies of his time, he compiled a catalogue of all known British earthquakes. Davison was at pains to include only those...

Reconstruction of Magnetic Reconnection Events
ISBN: 9783838104102 / Angielski / Miękka / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Magnetic reconnection is a basic process taking place in plasmas on Earth and in space. After a general introduction, this work focusses on magnetic reconnection in the Earth magnetosphere. Because of the interaction between the solar wind and the terrestrial magnetic field, magnetic field line merging is initiated under certain conditions, leading to various phenomena like the polar aurora or the injection of high-energetic particles influencing near-Earth satellites. The author presents a method to achieve detailed information about the reconnection process from remote satellite...

Global Geodetic Observing System: Meeting the Requirements of a Global Society on a Changing Planet in 2020
ISBN: 9783642026867 / Angielski / Twarda / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS) has been established by the Int- national Association of Geodesy (IAG) in order to integrate the three fundamental areas of geodesy, so as to monitor geodetic parameters and their temporal varia- ?9 tions, in a global reference frame with a target relative accuracy of 10 or b- ter. These areas, often called pillars, deal with the determination and evolution of (a) the Earth s geometry (topography, bathymetry, ice surface, sea level), (b) the Earth s rotation and orientation (polar motion, rotation rate, nutation, etc. ), and (c) the Earth s gravity...

Solid-Fluid Mixtures of Frictional Materials in Geophysical and Geotechnical Context: Based on a Concise Thermodynamic Analysis
ISBN: 9783642029677 / Angielski / Twarda / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mixture concepts are nowadays used in a great number of subjects of the - ological, chemical, engineering, natural and physical sciences (to name these alphabetically) and the theory of mixtures has attained in all these dis- plines a high level of expertise and specialisation. The digression in their development has on occasion led to di?erences in the denotation of special formulations as 'multi-phase systems' or 'non-classical mixtures', 'structured mixtures', etc., and their representatives or defenders often emphasise the di?erences of these rather than their common properties....

Impact of Solar Particle Events on the Earth's Atmosphere
ISBN: 9783838109022 / Angielski / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The chemical composition of the middle atmosphere can be strongly influenced by Solar Proton Events (SPEs) and Energetic Electron Precipitation Events (EEPs). These events are sources of odd hydrogen and nitrogen, which both contribute to ozone loss in the middle atmosphere. Due to its long lifetime, significant amounts of odd nitrogen and hydrogen are produced by large particle events in the mesosphere and the upper stratosphere can be transported down into the middleand lower stratosphere during polar winter, where e.g. odd nitrogen is a key species in ozone loss. Thus large particle events...
