This book is the first comprehensive documentation and interpretation of modern neritic carbonate sediments on the southern Australian continental margin, the largest cool-water carbonate depositional system on the globe.
Playing a critical role in both influencing climate change and mitigating its impacts, the world's diverse wetlands have become one of the world's most threatened ecosystems as unsustainable land-use practices coupled with irrational use of water have already resulted in large-scale wetlands loss and degradation.
Carbonate sediments are of increasing relevance for archives of past environmental conditions and for economical reasons in areas of geothermal energy and hydrocarbon reservoirs.
Wine culture is a complex phenomenon of increasing importance in modern society, and it combines the joys of wine appreciation with the frustrations of trying to verbally communicate sensory impressions.
"Los Supervinos 2018" no solo ofrece información útil, actualizada y rigurosa, también propone a los aficionados al vino el descubrimiento constante de nuevas referencias, y lo hace mediante unlenguaje fácil y asequible.
Environmental Nexus Approach: Management of Water, Waste, and Soil establishes linkages between environmental resources, such as water, waste, and soil, in order to facilitate sustainable management of these resources.
Además de conservar su característica rigurosidad y total independencia, la completa y diversa selección de los 120 mejores vinos de supermercado para 2020, en esta versión, también va acompañada de maridajes ideales para cada uno de ellos y sugerencias de cuándo tomarlos.
¿Cuántas veces nos preguntamos mientras disfrutamos de una botella de vino, lo que habrá tenido que ocurrir, desde que se plantó la viña, se cortó el racimo y se obtuvo el caldo, hasta el momento en el que lo degustamos?
This book examines relationships between climate-hydrological changes and other phenomena including land use and natural disasters during the Holocene and recent past.
A multidisciplinary study of Bera Lake in Malaysia is presented here, focusing on natural resources throughout the lake's catchment area and assessing environmental impact.
Es ist kein Thema zum Naserümpfen, auch wenn das vielleicht die erste spontane Reaktion ist: Was unser Körper ausscheidet und über Kanalisation, Kläranlagen oder direkt in die Umwelt bringt, enthält wertvolle und gefragte Inhaltsstoffe.
Bio-organic Amendments for Heavy Metal Remediation: Water, soil and plant focuses on these core continuum media to explore remediation options using microbial, organic and combined approached.
Den Ansatz der klassischen Historischen Geologie aufgreifend, fokussieren die Autoren in diesem neu-konzipierten Lehrbuch auf die biogenen und nicht-biogenen Prozesse der Erdentwicklung.
Die dritte Auflage dieses erfolgreichen Lehrbuchs der speziellen Mineralogie, Petrologie und Lagerstättenkunde wurde vom Autor unter Berücksichtigung der Anregungen seiner Fachkollegen jetzt überarbeitet und auf den neuesten Stand gebracht.
Based on Cretaceous-Tertiary accretionary sequences of the Shimanto Belt in Japan, the complex history of these exceptionally exposed rocks is summarized through a series of outcrop- to microscopic scale photographs, sketches, and geological maps, most of which are in full colour.
Diese Einführung in die spezielle Mineralogie, Petrologie und Lagerstättenkunde auf genetischer Grundlage konzentriert sich auf wesentliche Lehrinhalte des Fachgebietes und setzt Grundkenntnisse in der allgemeinen Mineralogie und Kristallographie voraus.

This unparelleled reference synthesizes the methods used in microfacies analysis and details the potential of microfacies in evaluating depositional environments and diagenetic history, and, in particular, the application of microfacies data in the study of carbonate hydrocarbon reservoirs and the provenance of archaeological materials.
We live in an early stage of an interglacial period, which began some fifteen thousand years ago - a warming trend which, with the extreme ups and downs, is .
At present, studies of the Arctic Basin are of particular importance to the world scientific community due to the strong influence of this region on the global climate, its enormous mineral and hydrocarbon resources, the poor knowledge about the polar biosphere, and the growing anthropogenic pollution of the Arctic (Gramberg et al.
The Goals of Data Collection and Its Statistical Treatment in the Earth Sciences The earth sciences are characterised by loose and complex relationships between variables, and the necessity to understand the geographical dis- tribution of observations as well as their frequency distribution.
The modem geological sciences are characterized by extraordinarily rapid prog- ress, as well as by the development and application of numerous new and refined methods, most of them handling an enormous amount of data available from all the continents and oceans.
