Download or read book Geoscience Handbook written by Joe Carry and published by . This book was released on 2015-02-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last thirty years, geoscience has developed and changed rapidly. The whole ecosystem is facing environmental imbalance due to climatic change. Hence, geoscientific applications are growing. A large number of novel methods, data and techniques have been introduced and experimented with various facets of geoscience. The sections of this book discuss the present state of various analysis, data, methods and modeling techniques. The application of these techniques and methods, to all the wings of geology, hydrology and environmental and climatic change is very well demonstrated in this book. The broad spectrum of methods and technology include global positioning system, digital sediment core image analysis, information system and technology, 3D sedimentology, change detection from remote sensing, and many more.

Thorough, yet compact enough for use in the field, it consists of brief descriptions of textures and structures useful in interpreting depositional environments, kinds of volcanic activity, and plutonic events and conditions. Included are procedures often reserved for the laboratory or office: staining rocks, correcting orientations of current indicators, constructing profile sections of folds, measuring strains, making photogeologic interpretations, and more. Covers pre-field considerations, methods of observation and measurement, recognition of key geologic features, and preparation of a report. Illustrated with composite drawings. Fourteen appendixes provide systemized data and procedures.
