Book Ecosystem Dynamics in a Polar Desert

Download or read book Ecosystem Dynamics in a Polar Desert written by and published by American Geophysical Union. This book was released on 1998 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents information from the primary abiotic forces defining the system, and from the present hydrology, biogeochemistry and physics of major sites of organic carbon production of the McMurdo Dry Valleys. Additionally, research on the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the dry valley soils is included. The role of environmental management in long-term ecological studies is also addressed. The accompanying CDROM provides details and scale to visualize the McMurdo Dry Valleys from an ecosystem perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brings together a series of papers which explore various aspects of the deformation of continental lithosphere, covering different tectonic settings from the Palaeozoic to the present day. These include terrane accretion and juxtaposition, the exhumation of high-pressure terrains, and mechanisms of crustal extension and rifting.

Book South Pacific Sedimentary Basins

Download or read book South Pacific Sedimentary Basins written by Peter F. Ballance and published by Elsevier Publishing Company. This book was released on 1993 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hardbound. Sedimentary basins contain most of the extant record of the earth's history, and they provide us with most of our earth-sourced raw materials. Therefore their study is both scientifically and economically important. This book gives the first comprehensive coverage of sedimentary basins in the New Zealand region. Comprising 21 chapters by 32 authors, it discusses sedimentary basins ranging in age from Permian to Quaternary. The chapters are process- and topic-oriented. Three distinct basin-forming periods are covered: 1) Permian through Jurassic arc-related terranes; 2) Mid-Cretaceous through Oligocene extensional basins; 3) Neogene convergent margin basins.Resource scientists investigating sedimentary basins and all researchers working on basin-related topics will find this volume of interest.

Book Terrane Processes at the Margins of Gondwana

Download or read book Terrane Processes at the Margins of Gondwana written by Alan Vaughan and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2005 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Australide orogen, the southern hemisphere Neoproterozoic to Mesozoic terrane accretionary orogen that forms the palaeo-Pacific margin of Gondwana, is one of the largest and longest-lived orogens on Earth. This book brings together a series of reviews and multidisciplinary research papers that comprehensively cover the Australides from the Tasman orogen of eastern Australia to the Neoproterozoic and Palaeozoic orogens of South America, taking in New Zealand and Antarctica along the way. It deals with the evolution of the southern Gondwana margin, as it grew during a series of terrane accretion episodes from the late Proterozoic through to final fragmentation in mid-Cretaceous times. Global perspectives are given by comparison with the Palaeozoic northern Gondwana margin and documentation of world-wide terrane accretion episodes in the Late Triassic-Early Jurassic and mid-Cretaceous. The Tasmanides of eastern Australia, and the terrane histories of New Zealand and southern South America are given comprehensive up-to-date reviews.

Book Sedimentary Basins and Crustal Processes at Continental Margins

Download or read book Sedimentary Basins and Crustal Processes at Continental Margins written by G.M. Gibson and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2015-10-19 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continental margins and their fossilized analogues are important repositories of natural resources. With better processing techniques and increased availability of high-resolution seismic and potential field data, imaging of present-day continental margins and their embedded sedimentary basins has reached unprecedented levels of refinement and definition, as illustrated by examples described in this volume. This, in turn, has led to greatly improved geological, geodynamic and numerical models for the crustal and mantle processes involved in continental margin formation from the initial stages of rifting through continental rupture and break-up to development of a new ocean basin. Further informing these models, and contributing to a better understanding of the features imaged in the seismic and potential field data, are observations made on fossilized fragments of exhumed subcontinental mantle lithosphere and ocean–continent transition zones preserved in ophiolites and orogenic belts of both Palaeozoic and Mesozoic age from several different continents, including Europe, South Asia and Australasia.
