ISBN: 9780444531650 / Angielski / Twarda / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume aims at providing answers to some puzzling questions concerning the formation and the behavior of collapse calderas by exploring our current understanding of these complex geological processes. Addressed are problems such as: - How do collapse calderas form?
- What are the conditions to create fractures and slip along them to initiate caldera collapse and when are these conditions fulfilled? - How do these conditions relate to explosive volcanism? - Most products of large caldera-forming eruptions show evidence for pre-eruptive reheating. Is this a pre-requisite to... This volume aims at providing answers to some puzzling questions concerning the formation and the behavior of collapse calderas by exploring our curre...

The 1755 Lisbon Earthquake: Revisited
ISBN: 9781402086083 / Angielski / Twarda / 597 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The 1755 earthquake and tsunami were influential not only in Portugal but in all European and North African countries where the devastating effects were felt. The entire world was deeply impressed and the discussion of its causes generated a large amount of scientific and metaphysical speculation. It inspired philosophers, poets and writers. The socio-economic consequences of the event were great and affected the future organization and development of Portugal. The possibility of a similar occurence urges society and the scientific community to reflect on its lessons.

Advances in Geophysics: Earth Heterogeneity and Scattering Effects on Seismic Waves Volume 50
ISBN: 9780123745095 / Angielski / Twarda / 476 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Seismic waves generated by earthquakes have been interpreted to provide us information about the Earth's structure across a variety of scales. For short periods of less than 1 second, the envelope of seismograms changes significantly with increased travel distance and coda waves are excited by scattering due to randomly distributed heterogeneities in the Earth. Deterministic structures such as horizontally uniform velocity layer models in traditional seismology cannot explain these phenomena. This book focuses on the Earth heterogeneity and scattering effects on seismic waves. Topics covered...

Of Poles and Zeros: Fundamentals of Digital Seismology
ISBN: 9780792368359 / Angielski / Miękka / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Digital signal processing has become an integral part of observational seismology. Seismic waveforms and the parameters commonly extracted from them are strongly influenced by the effects of numerous filters, both within the earth and within the recording system. With the advent of numerous software tools for the processing of digital seismograms, seismologists have unprecedented power in extracting information from seismic records. These tools are often based on sophisticated theoretical aspects of digital signal processing which, to be used properly, need to be understood. This book is...
