Multi-Criteria Decision Making for Risk Assessment of Emerging Environmental Contaminants

Geomechanics Research

This book provides a basis to interpret acoustic emission (AE) as damage processes in stressed rock, with applications to stress measurements, size effects, source mechanisms, and fracture mechanics. Basic features of an AE monitoring system will be covered, with some background on the sensor, pre-amplifier, and data acquisition. Several examples of AE monitoring will include both lab and field applications ranging from element testing to hydraulic fracturing. Intended for geologists, geophysicists and mining, petroleum and civil engineers dealing with rock stress and rock damage processes.

Microcracking in Rock as Acoustic Emission

Introduction to Remote Sensing and GIS

Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics

A thematic introduction to the modern theory of continuum mechanics and thermodynamics is presented from the viewpoint of granular and porous materials. In the approach taken here, granular and porous media are treated as continuous macroscopic systems of which the overall response is significantly influenced and determined by microstructural effects. In the continuum mechanical modeling, those microscale effects are captured by the introduction of so-called internal variables which account for geometric and material inhomogeneities or the multiphase nature of granular mixtures. Describing the evolution of such internal variables by additional balance laws, the resulting continuum-thermodynamical system requires careful analysis, including, e.g. the application of the entropy principle of Müller with the corresponding approach of exploitation as suggested by Liu. The book is self-contained and addresses an interdisciplinary audience including civil and geotechnical engineers, physicists, applied mathematicians, soil mechanicians and continuum mechanicians.

Continuum Description of Granular Materials

Jedes Jahr wird die Öffentlichkeit von Berichten über Naturereignisse und deren Folgen für die betroffenen Menschen erschüttert: Der Tsunami am 26. Dezember 2004 ging als eine der größten Naturkatastrophen der Neuzeit in die Geschichte ein, in den nachfolgenden Jahren wurden in mehreren Ländern Europas Jahrhunderthochwasser gemeldet. Und dieser Tage beherrschen Schlagzeilen über das verheerende Erdbeben in Nepal unsere Nachrichten. Diese und weitere Beispiele sind Thema des vorliegenden Lese- und Lehrbuchs. Die Geographie ist durch das Zusammenwirken von physio- und humangeographischen Ansätzen wie keine andere Wissenschaft dazu prädestiniert, die vielfach miteinander verknüpften Problemlagen einer Katastrophe in ihren zahlreichen Facetten und Handlungsdimensionen umfassend zu "begreifen". Wissenschaftler aus beiden Bereichen verknüpfen in diesem Buch die naturwissenschaftlichen Fragen nach den Auslösern von Naturkatastrophen - etwa mit Blick auf geotektonische Vorgänge oder klimatische Prozesse - mit gesellschaftlichen Fragestellungen: Hier geht es um medizinische und soziale Probleme, um die Verwundbarkeit bestimmter Bevölkerungsgruppen und um die Einbettung dieser Aspekte in globale Wirtschaftsverflechtungen. Geographie und Katastrophenforschung gehören zu den wenigen Wissenschaften, welche unterschiedliche Maßstabsebenen von global bis lokal miteinander verknüpfen; sie betrachten damit die globale Umweltsituation und die ökologische Zukunft unseres Planeten ebenso wie lokale Problemstellungen. Das sich neu etablierende Themenfeld der Hazardforschung veranschaulicht, wie aktuelle Ereignisse mit langfristigen Entwicklungen in Beziehung stehen (Stichwort Global Change), und berücksichtigt dabei die Bewältigung ebenso wie auch die Prävention von Katastrophen.

Progress and Challenges

The Trench Biosphere at the Bottom of the Ocean

Nature wants to heal, and we can help. We know that when Earth's ecosystems fall out of harmony, the damage can spiral out of control. But what if we could help nature to regain its balance? As a leading ecologist, Professor Thomas Crowther studies not just how species work individually but how whole complex ecosystems work to regulate themselves. When we set the right conditions for nature to thrive, each species helps to support the life of every other species. This means not just planting trees, but taking into account the fascinating role of fungi and soil bacteria, as well as the free movement of wild animals. By revealing how the feedback loops that generate sustainable ecosystems give rise to the stars, planets, and life; economic inequality and privilege; and the way we see the world, Nature's Echo shows how we can do our part so that nature can begin the vital process of healing itself.

Geoheritage, Geoparks and Geotourism

This book explores one of the world’s most striking red bed sandstone landscapes - Danxiashan - which was designated a UNESCO Global Geopark in 2004 and inscribed as part of the serial World Heritage property "China Danxia" in 2011."China Danxia" refers to a distinctive type of landscape formed on continental red terrigenous sedimentary rocks, shaped by internal geological forces such as tectonic uplift and external processes including weathering and erosion. Danxiashan is renowned for its dramatic red cliffs - primarily from the Cretaceous period - and a diverse array of erosional landforms, including towering pillars, isolated rock formations, lush subtropical vegetation, steep ravines, deep valleys, and cascading waterfalls.The term Danxia, meaning “red cloud’s glow,” captures both the vivid color and ethereal beauty of this unique terrain. It is a landscape that reflects a deep geological history, a distinctive evolution of landforms, and a rich blend of natural and cultural heritage - demonstrating the enduring harmony between humans and nature.

GIS in Action

This unique book investigates the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development through geospatial information lenses, making the case that geospatial information is central to the SDGs and is imperative to understand the place, location, communities, and the people to identify where the root of the problem lies. Combined with other layers of information, it supports advanced analysis and visualizations and explains how SDG indicators can be interpreted and measured either through direct use of geospatial data itself or through integration with other statistical data. International case studies and coverage of all the SDGs help users evaluate impacts and monitor progress to achieve the SDGs.Features<ul> <li>Demonstrates how geospatial information can be used to assess SDG targets and indicators.</li> <li>Provides 16 applications and real-world case studies of SDGs and their related indicators where geospatial information contributes significantly to the implementation and monitoring.</li> <li>Addresses practical and technological issues related to geospatial information, data acquisition, and integration approaches.</li> <li>Illustrates the integration of geospatial information with statistical and other development information</li> <li>Discusses the impact that applications have on policy and society to make informed decisions and implement better policies.</li> </ul>This book is for professionals, researchers, senior undergraduates and graduate students, working on or studying projects focused on specific GIS applications in support of sustainable development. It is also an excellent resource for policymakers and NGOs involved with UN SDGs.
