Adventures in Volcanoland charts journeys across deserts, through jungles and up ice caps, to some of the world's most important volcanoes, from Nicaragua to Hawaii, Santorini to Ethiopia, exploring Tamsin Mather's obsession with these momentous geological formations, the cultural and religious roles they have played in the minds of those living around them at different times throughout history, and the science behind their formation and eruptions. Volcanoes help to make and shape our world, bursting forth from inside of the earth and, in many places, looming over us. Present since the earth's beginning they continue to maintain its life support systems and, their extraordinary chemistry may even have created the ingredients needed for life to kick start. In some places volcanoes are even beginning to provide us with part of the energy we need to curb our use of fossil fuels. They have fascinated humans for millennia, their eruptions charted throughout history, seeming to show us how the earth has been living, breathing and changing for billions of years. Why exactly are these geological mammoths found where they are? What can they teach us about our environment, the Anthropocene and the ecological disaster that is climate change? Are there volcanoes on other planets, and what might they tell us about whether we could one day live there if we exhaust our own habitat? How can we predict if or when volcanoes might explode? Adventures in Volcanoland is an enthralling mix of travel, science and environmental writing for fans of Robert MacFarlane and Raynor Winn.

What Volcanoes Tell Us About the World and Ourselves

This Volcanic Isle explores the rich geological history of the British Isles over the past 66 million years, since the disappearance of the dinosaurs. From the Isle of Wight needles to the Giant's causeway to the Sticklepath faultline in Devon, this book recounts how earthquakes and eruptions, plumes and plate boundaries, built the British Isles.

"The mechanisms of magma movement, chemical differentiation and physical development, are derived from the geochemistry of igneous rocks, and from studying exposures of deep magmatic systems that have since solidified and been uplifted and exposed at the Earth's surface. The Ferrar Magmatic System of the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica provides an unparalleled example of a complete magmaticvolcanic system exposed in unprecedented detail. This book provides a unique and usual threedimensional detailed examination of this system, providing insight into many magmatic processes normally unobservable, in particular how basaltic magma moves upwards through the crust, how it entrains, carries and deposits loads of crystals from great depths, and how this all contributes to Earth's evolution. Providing an explanation of how magmatic systems operate and how igneous rocks form, this is an invaluable resource ideal for researchers and graduate students in magma physics, igneous petrology, volcanology, and geochemistry"--

A textbook applying fundamental seismology theories to the latest computational tools The goal of computational seismology is to digitally simulate seismic waves, create subsurface models, and match these models with observations to identify subsurface rock properties. With recent advances in computing technology, including machine learning, it is now possible to automate matching procedures and use waveform inversion or optimization to create large-scale models. Computation, Optimization, and Machine Learning in Seismology provides students with a detailed understanding of seismic wave theory, optimization theory, and how to use machine learning to interpret seismic data. Volume highlights include: <ul> <li>Mathematical foundations and key equations for computational seismology</li> <li>Essential theories, including wave propagation and elastic wave theory</li> <li>Processing, mapping, and interpretation of prestack data</li> <li>Model-based optimization and artificial intelligence methods</li> <li>Applications for earthquakes, exploration seismology, depth imaging, and multi-objective geophysics problems</li> <li>Exercises applying the main concepts of each chapter</li> </ul> The American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals.

These seismic vibration control systems are connected using braces in series and installed with pins to the building structure, enabling installation with little impact on the building structure. This book details testing, analysis and case studies of dampers at braced positions and also exposed to small amplitude vibration.

Originally published in 1993, Active Lavas looks at the practical aspects of monitoring uncontrolled streams of molten rock and how field data can be applied for theoretical modelling and forecasting the growth of lava flows.

Originally published in 1993, Active Lavas looks at the practical aspects of monitoring uncontrolled streams of molten rock and how field data can be applied for theoretical modelling and forecasting the growth of lava flows. It describes the basic features of common subaerial lava flows and domes – both on Earth and on other bodies in the Solar System – before discussing the logistics of measuring lava properties during eruption and how these measurements are used to develop simple theoretical models for forecasting flow behaviour.

"A graduate-level reference/textbook on theoretical and computational seismology"--

An authoritative, self-contained reference text on theoretical and computational seismology Over the past several decades, computational advances have revolutionized seismology, making it possible to simulate seismic wave propagation in complex Earth models and create detailed images of the planet’s interior. This cutting-edge text introduces students and scholars to the fundamentals, techniques, and applications of this exciting field of research and discovery. After establishing a strong foundation in continuum mechanics, the book presents the fundamentals of theoretical seismology, providing a basis for subsequent forward and inverse modeling grounded in numerical methods, and then focuses on computational seismology, investigating numerical solutions to seismic wave equations. The adjoint-state method is covered next, along with applications of this technique to waveform inversions across scales, after which the book concludes with a set of appendixes that provide a primer to differential geometry and tensor calculus, which are used throughout the book to explain the fundamental concepts of deformation, strain, and stress from both Eulerian and Lagrangian perspectives. Including over 150 student-tested exercises, the book is an essential resource for motivated students and scholars seeking to master the state of the art of theoretical and computational seismology.<ul><li>Establishes a strong foundation through a geometric analysis of continuum mechanics</li><li>Reveals how linearizing the resulting equations of motion enables the simulation of seismic wave propagation across nine decades of frequencies and wavelengths</li><li>Demonstrates how to leverage the capabilities of simulations to create detailed tomographic images from the information embedded in seismographic recordings</li><li>Covers diverse application areas, including seismology, helioseismology, underwater acoustics, medical imaging, and non-destructive testing</li><li>Features a wealth of exercises (with online solutions)</li><li>Includes a comprehensive set of appendixes on differential geometry and tensor calculus</li><li>An ideal textbook for graduate students studying theoretical seismology, computational seismology, or optimization and inverse problems</li><li>An essential reference for researchers and scholars</li></ul>
