Un fascinante viaje al pasado remoto de la Tierra para conocer las condiciones que hicieron posible su existencia y los dramáticos cambios que dieron como resultado el planeta que conocemos.
Written for undergraduate students studying coastal geomorphology, this is the complete guide to the processes at work on our coastlines and the features we see in coastal systems across the world.
The proceedings of the 4th Symposium on River, Coastal and Estuarine Morphodynamics offers the latest research results concerning quantitative modelling of the interaction of water and sediment and the shapes this interaction makes in rivers, watersheds, estuaries, the coast, the continental shelf and the deep sea.
A comprehensive and practical overview of the state of the science, Soil Quality Standards for Trace Elements: Derivation, Implementation, and Interpretation addresses the derivation of soil quality standards for trace elements and the implementation of these standards within regulatory and risk assessment frameworks.
Recent biodiversity studies, reported here for the first time, have shown that the molluscan fauna of the Gulf of Mexico is far richer and more complex than previously thought.
Multivariate, heterogeneous data has been traditionally analyzed using the "e;one at a time"e; variable approach, often missing the main objective of discovering the relationships among multiple variables and samples.
