Book Vesuvius  Campi Flegrei  and Campanian Volcanism

Download or read book Vesuvius Campi Flegrei and Campanian Volcanism written by Benedetto De Vivo and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2019-10-11 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vesuvius, Campi Flegrei, and Campanian Volcanism communicates the state-of-the-art scientific knowledge on past and active volcanism in an area characterized by elevated risk due to high-density population. Eruptions, lahars and poisonous gas clouds have killed many thousands of people over recorded history, but volcanoes have given people some of the most fertile soil known in agriculture. The research presented in this book is useful for policymakers and researchers from these and other countries who are looking for risk assessment and volcanic evolution models they can apply to similar situations around the world. Naples and its surrounding area, in particular, the area situated between Vesuvius and the Campi Flegrei volcanic area has a population in excess of 4 million people. The volcanic areas that have similarly large populations in proximity to dormant, but hazardous volcanoes, i.e., Indonesia and Central America can also benefit from this work. Covers the fundamental science of volcanoes, including new developments in the last decade relating to the use of crystals and melt inclusions to model the nature and evolution of volatiles Includes the latest research on volcanism in Southern Italy that is presented as a case study for active and inactive volcanoes across the globe Presents research that is applicable around the world, for people, scientists and policymakers living on, or near, active volcanoes

Book Pyroclastic Rocks

    Book Details:
  • Author : Richard V. Fisher
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 3642748643
  • Pages : 485 pages

Download or read book Pyroclastic Rocks written by Richard V. Fisher and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pyroclastic Rocks is the first modern comprehensive treatment of what they are and how they were formed. The subject is discussed against a background of plate tectonics theory and modern advances in volcanology, sedimentology and igneous petrology. The book provides a thorough discussion of magmatic volatiles and pyroclastic processes as well as magma-water interactions. Most of the book is concerned with the wide spectrum of pyroclastic rocks formed on land and under water and by fallout and various flowage mechanisms. Diagenetic processes by which pyroclastic particles are transformed into rocks are discussed in detail. The stratigraphic and tectonic importance of pyroclastic rocks are illustrated using selected case histories. This uniquely integrated account of pyroclastic processes, particles and rocks will prove a valuable aid in reconstructing dynamic aspects of earth evolution as well as predicting future volcanic hazards; understanding sedimentary basins containing petroleum and gas deposits; locating ore deposits in volcanic complexes and heat sources in geothermal prospecting; and facilitating stratigraphic analysis in complex volcanic terrains.

Book Ash Flows and Related Volcanic Rocks Associated with the Creede Caldera  San Juan Mountains  Colorado

Download or read book Ash Flows and Related Volcanic Rocks Associated with the Creede Caldera San Juan Mountains Colorado written by James Clifford Ratté and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complex pile of Tertiary volcanic rocks in the central San Juan Mountains, Colo., consists of welded ash-flow tuffs, lava flows, and breccias from several sources. A more limited sequence within this assemblage originated in or bordering the Creede caldera and is the subject of this report. The Creede caldera sequence consists of five major ash-flow formations, locally interlayered lava flows, a succeeding lava-flow formation, and the volcanic-clastic Creede Formation.

Book The Encyclopedia of Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology

Download or read book The Encyclopedia of Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology written by Donald Bowes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1990-02-28 with total page 635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring over 250 contributions from more than 100 earth scientists from 18 countries, The Encyclopedia of Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology deals with the nature and genesis of igneous rocks that have crystallized from molten magma, and of metamorphic rocks that are the products of re-crystallization associated with increases in temperature and pressure, mainly at considerable depths in the Earth's crust. Entries range from alkaline rocks to zeolite facies - providing information on the mineralogical, chemical and textural characters of rock types, the development of concepts and the present state of knowledge across the spectrum of igneous and metamorphic petrology, together with extensive lists of both commonly used and little used terms and bibliographies.

Book Heavy Minerals in Use

Download or read book Heavy Minerals in Use written by Maria A. Mange and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2007-09-10 with total page 1329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is structured thematically, encompassing principles, processes and products, practice and applications. Discussion of processes that control heavy mineral assemblages throughout the rock cycle are presented by leading experts, whose key-note works are followed by specialist case studies. Each work also provides details on the geology of the study area, techniques and data treatment. The high number of contributions represent the collective experience and wisdom of generations of geologists, and provide an invaluable source of references to works carried out in many parts of the world. * Presents a unique and authoritative resource of immediate relevance and practical use to the researcher and applied geologist * Contains case studies demonstrating the broad range of applications of heavy minerals in a variety of modern and ancient geological settings, and in resource exploration * Includes examples of geological problems from employing heavy mineral analysis and establishing criteria that can be applied before deciding to undertake a study
