Carbon Dioxide Equilibria and Their Applications

Author: James Butler
Publishing date: 2018
Carbon dioxide, bicarbonate ion, and carbonate ion comprise the important acid-base system in natural waters, and the equilibria between them regulate the pH of seawater, as well as rainwater, stream water, river water, and groundwater. This book presents this topic, which is central to geochemistry and environmental engineering.

Geological Formation Names of China (1866-2000)

Author: Shouxin Zhang
Publishing date: 2009
Geological Formation Names of China (1866-2000) is the only catalogue on stratigraphic nomenclature for China in the world to keep two writing types (Wade-Giles Romanization and Chinese Phonetic Alphabet) so as to provide convenience for domestic and overseas readers. The catalogue is intended for specialists and graduates in Geosciences and Stratigraphy. Shouxin Zhang (1927 -2006) was stratigrapher and research professor at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Engineering Karstology of Dams and Reservoirs

Author: Petar Milanovic
Publishing date: 2018
Karst terrains have been modified and adapted through a range of human activities as the need for flood control, irrigation, food production, hydropower production and other resources has increased. Successful reclamation projects require construction of dams and reservoirs. Karst terrains present the most complex working conditions for dam foundation and realization of safe reservoir space. Practical engineering solutions are extremely complex and the need for successful solution requires serious investigations and the cooperation of a wide spectrum of scientists and engineers. A wealth of data on dam projects in karst has been collected and presented in this book. Since reservoirs in karst may fail to fill despite extensive investigations and remediation treatment

Geospatial Technologies for Land Degradation Assessment and Management

Author: (Jawaharlal Dwivedi
R. S. Dwivedi
Publishing date: 2018
The constant growth of the world's population and the decline of the availability of land and soil resources are global concerns for food security. Other concerns are the decrease in productivity and delivery of essential ecosystems services because of the decline of soil quality and health by a range of degradation processes. Key soil properties like soil bulk density, organic carbon concentration, plant available water capacity, infiltration rate, air porosity at field moisture capacity, and nutrient reserves, are crucial properties for soil functionality which refers to the capacity of soil to perform numerous functions. These functions are difficult to measure directly and are estimated through indices of soil quality and soil health. Soil degradation, its extent

Key Concepts in Geomorphology

Author: David Montgomery
Paul Bierman
Publishing date: 2013
Written for introductory geomorphology courses this textbook offers an integrative, applications-centred approach to the study of the Earth's dynamic surface. Bierman and Montgomery draw from the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, and mathematics to help students get a basic understanding of Earth surface processes and the evolution of topography over short and long timescales. The authors also hone in on practical applications, showing how scientists are using geomorphological research to tackle critical societal issues (natural disaster response, safer infrastructure, protecting species, and more). Exceptionally concise and community vetted, each chapter is focused specifically on key concepts and underlying principles rather than regional or local examples.

Road from Geochemistry to Geochemometrics

Author: Surendra Verma
Publishing date: 2019
This book highlights major problems in the statistical analysis of compositions that have been known for over a century, as well as the corresponding solutions that have been put forward by specialists over the past 30 years. The basic assumptions of normality or multi-normality are pointed out and methods to test and achieve them are also covered. The conventional major and trace element geochemistry and modeling equations are discussed, and are followed by a more sophisticated multidimensional approach to data handling. The book's main focus is on the use of statistical techniques to facilitate data interpretation. It also highlights the classification (or nomenclature) and tectonic discrimination aspects for both igneous and sedimentary rocks. The book concludes by
