Adriaens D: Exploring the Evolution of

Exploring the Evolution of our Ancestors

On the Human Track

Geophysical Monograph Series

Microanalysis of Atmospheric Particles Techniques and Applications Most of what is visible in the atmosphere-such as pollution, dust, haze, fog, and clouds-is due to micrometer- and nanometer-sized aerosol particles. It is important to understand the source, characteristics, and behavior of these small particles as they play a fundamental role in large-scale atmospheric processes. Microanalysis of Atmospheric Particles: Techniques and Applications presents different microscopic techniques for studying aerosols and explores a range of applications in climate studies and air quality studies. Volume highlights include: <ul><li>Overview of different techniques and applications</li> <li>In-depth descriptions of scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, Raman microspectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy</li> <li>Techniques for studying physical characteristics and chemical composition</li> <li>Methods to examine particle transformation</li> <li>Examples including soot, organic aerosols, ice crystals, and sea spray</li> <li>Applications for global and regional climate change and urban air quality</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.

Microanalysis of Atmospheric Particles

How earthquakes can reveal the subsurface secrets of our planet and other worlds When Worlds Quake is a fascinating account of how scientists around the globe seek to use quakes to answer tantalizing questions about the structure and inner dynamics of our planet and to discover the deepest secrets of our nearest neighbors in the solar system. Briefly traversing the history of seismology, Hrvoje Tkal¿i¿ describes the women and men who sought to understand major seismic events—from the catastrophic 1556 Shaanxi earthquake and the San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906 to more recent events such as the 2020 earthquakes in Tkal¿i¿’s native Croatia—and thus shaped the field. Modern global seismologists now not only study the behavior of earthquakes but also use seismic waves as tools to image Earth’s deep interior. To do this work, they need seismographs positioned around the globe, including in remote, challenging regions. Tkal¿i¿ takes the reader along on his own daring expeditions to install seismographs and collect seismic wave data from the wilds of the Australian Outback to the rough depths of the Southern Ocean, and even farther afield—to the Moon and Mars, where quakes can be used to image the interiors of these worlds. A riveting and often personal narrative about the cutting-edge science of global and planetary seismology, When Worlds Quake reveals how quakes can help scientists to understand the mysterious inner architecture and ongoing evolution of our planet, as well as worlds beyond our own.

The deep sea is one of humanity's last frontiers. For most of our history it has been a remote realm, invoking awe and terror as it lays shrouded in darkness. But here, where the light cannot reach, lies a strange, wonderful and breath-taking portal into Earth's past, teeming with scientific marvels and lessons for the future of life on this planet. In The Dark Frontier, marine microbiologist and expert deep-sea explorer Jeffrey Marlow plunges us into the unreachable realm and invites us into close-up encounters with its hidden brilliance. There are translucent shrimp that dance through sulfurous vents, crabs that stretch twelve feet from claw to claw and the eerie chalk-white towers of the 'Lost City'. Immersive and illuminating, Marlow's journeys heed warnings too: our reach is exceeding our grasp. We are irrevocably changing the deep sea before we even know it. This expansive book offers crucial and surprising insights into the birthplace of life on ancient Earth. It shows how life can thrive in even the most extreme conditions and expands our understanding of possibilities - and our responsibilities - on earth and beyond.

The Cryosphere Science Series

A complete and timely reference on the application of geophysical methods to the cryosphere Applied Geophysics in the Cryospheric Sciences provides comprehensive coverage of the acquisition, processing, and use of geophysical data for understanding cryospheric problems. Bringing together contributions by world-renowned experts in the field, this authoritative volume presents up-to-date information on the properties and processes of debris-covered glaciers, permafrost and rock glaciers, ice, snow, and glacial sedimentary landforms. Individual sections focus on the application of geophysical techniques to subglacial and englacial ice, crustal-scale ice sheets, the structure and hydrology of snowpacks, the past and present flow of ice sheets and ice caps, the physical properties of sea ice over wide areas, and more. Encompassing all key geophysical methods, Applied Geophysics in the Cryospheric Sciences also includes GPS techniques for in situ monitoring of ice sheet and glacier flow, the processing of ice-mass GPS data, the interpretation of ice-electrical processes, and sonic and ultrasonic logging of deep ice boreholes, and recent advances in geophysical survey technology. Integrates geophysics with sedimentology and hydrology of cryosphereCovers the full spectrum of geophysical methods and approaches, including modeling, field observation, and remote sensingDiscusses long-term glacier behavior, paleorecord interpretation, and ice-mass change in response to climatic change Includes recent case studies from a wide range of international sources and explores the future outlook of the fieldPart of the Cryosphere Science series, Applied Geophysics in the Cryospheric Sciences is an indispensable resource for advanced students, academic researchers, applied scientists, and professionals working on cryospheric problems in fields such as geophysics, glaciology, geomorphology, and sedimentology.

Applied Geophysics in the Cryospheric Sciences

<div>Based on highly detailed field investigations and test data from research on 98 different remnant basins, tectonic settings and lithostratigraphic sequences, this book describes the 4-stage evolution of the tectonic lithofacies paleogeography of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, including Paleocene-Eocene, Oligocene, Miocene and Pliocene. It also discusses the contact relationship between the strata, the tectonic-lithofacies paleogeography evolution in the Cenozoic and their response to the tectonic uplift of the plateau. The continuous uplift and intensive intra-continental deformation during each turning point in the plateau divided the originally large sedimentary basins into numerous smaller ones filled with shrank of lacustrine-facies deposition and increased boulderstone accumulation, which indicates a response to the overall uplift of the plateau. Five major uplift events, which happened in 58-53 Ma, 45-30 Ma, 25-20 Ma, 13-7 Ma and since 5 Ma, respectively were identified. The paleogeographic configurations of the Tibetan Plateau turned over during the late Miocene, with high contours in the east during the pre-Miocene switching to the west after the Late Miocene</div>

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.
