This book provides a comprehensive exploration of coral reefs—among Earth's most diverse yet vulnerable ecosystems—in the context of global climate change and local human pressures.
This book provides a conceptual framework, presenting a description and modelling of the regulating mechanisms of supply, demand and supply-demand dynamics, sketches the most relevant classification systems of phosphorus deposits and outlines how they are related and how they should be improved to provide reliable, comparable classification, which is accepted by mining companies, geological surveys, science, industry, politicians and the public.
This is the first book on the geology of Qatar, with a special focus on its petroleum and gas potential, which is studied within the context of the Arabian Plate tectonic configuration.
