This book was released on 1989 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 308. This guidebook describes the geology of areas we will visit in the western Klamath Mountains and Coast Ranges of northernmost California. Articles are arranged in the order of our travel, from Medford to Crescent City on highway 199, and south to Eureka on coastal highway 101. Authors summarize the regional geologic setting and results of their research and earlier studies of the areas we will visit in review papers. Thus the geologic background necessary for interpretation of field stops is provided without the need of additional papers.

Download or read book California s Amazing Geology written by Donald R. Prothero and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-03-21 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: California has some of the most distinctive and unique geology in the United States. It is the only state with all three types of plate boundaries, an extraordinary history of earthquakes and volcanoes, and many rocks and minerals found nowhere else. The Golden State includes both the highest and lowest points in the continental US and practically every conceivable geological feature known. This book discusses not only the important geologic features of each region in California but also the complex geologic four-dimensional puzzle of how California was assembled, beginning over two billion years ago. The author provides an up-to-date and authoritative review of the geology and geomorphology of each geologic province, as well as recent revelations of the tectonic history of California’s past. There are separate chapters on some of California’s distinctive geologic resources, including gold, oil, water, coastlines, and fossils. An introductory section describes basic rock and mineral types and fundamental aspects of plate tectonics, so that students and other readers can make sense of the bizarre, wild, and crazy jigsaw puzzle that is California's geological history. In this second edition, the book has an entirely new final section, “California’s Environmental Hazards and Challenges,” with new chapters on California’s landslides, air and water pollution, renewable energy, and the future of climate change in California. Key Features Thoroughly updates the market-leading textbook on California's geology Is written by an author with 30 years of teaching geology and leading field trips in California Introduces California's unique geological history Covers fundamentals of geology Characterizes specific geographical regions of California Describes major geological resources of California Summarizes the paleontology of California Reviews the likely impact of climate change on California's environment Related Titles Hollocher, K.

Book excerpt: Paleoseismology has become an important component of seismic risk analysis, which is mandated for nuclear power plants, dams, waste repositories, and other critical structures. This book is the first in the English language to be devoted solely to paleoseismology. It summarizes the development of the field from the 1960s to the present, encompassing material that is currently widely dispersed in journal articles. Includes a comprehensive review of the techniques currently used in paleoseismology Emphasizes practical methods of data collection and field studies Covers interpretation of field data based on current theory concerning fault segmentation and recurrence cycles Contains more than 170 line drawings and 50 photographs of paleoseismic phenomena
