Agricultural Applications of Earth Observation

Salt in the Earth Sciences Evaporite Rocks and Salt Deposition Salt is formed when water rich in evaporite minerals accumulates on the Earth's surface and then evaporates. Over time, pressure and tectonics change the structure and shape of salt layers. Recent technological advances have improved the interpretation and modeling of subsurface salt structures. Salt in the Earth Sciences: Evaporite Rocks and Salt Deposition presents a global overview of salt deposition and deformation in sedimentary basins, synthesizing data analysis, observations, theories, and modeling. Volume highlights include: <ul><li>Overview of salt use by humans from prehistoric times to the modern industrial world</li><li>Chemical and physical principles of evaporite deposition in sedimentary basins</li><li>Effects of gravity and tectonic forces on rock salt deformation</li><li>Development of salt structures in orogenic belts and deep basins</li><li>Seismic interpretation methods for identification of subsurface salt structures</li><li>Key sedimentological models for evaporite deposition in continental and marine environments</li><li>Global examples ranging from modern hypersaline rift lakes to ancient marine salt basins</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.

Health Geography: Innovative Geospatial Epidemiology presents a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental principles and methodologies underpinning remote sensing for spatial epidemiology. Organised in two parts, the first delves into the methodology of utilizing cutting-edge remote sensing technologies to detect, analyze, and predict the spatial distribution of infectious diseases through the process of extracting critical information and creating accurate geospatial models for disease mapping and monitoring. The second part provides numerous case studies that illustrate the real-world applications and transformative potential of the interdisciplinary approaches, allowing the book to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical implementation. Health Geography is an indispensable resource for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in spatial epidemiology, geospatial sciences, and geostatistics seeking to utilize the potential of remote sensing technologies in tackling spatial epidemiological challenges.

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.

Applications of automated mineral analysis

Mining has evolved in the 21st century into an indispensable industry that provides a variety of mineral products needed to sustain a modern society. To achieve efficiency, it has also grown into an integrated enterprise of enormous size, wielding substantial economic power. Tailings is essentially a fine-particle mine-waste byproduct. Its management has gone through major transformations in the last century. In early years tailings was disposed of out of sight and literally out of mind. However, due to the physical and chemical characteristics of tailings, this laissez-faire approach in dealing with its disposal led to significant environmental degradation such as pollution and blockage of watercourses, etc. With the rising environmental protection movement, the mining operation is under increasing regulatory constraints and governmental monitoring. Modern tailings dams have become major hydraulic structures designed, constructed, and monitored until they are properly closed and reclaimed after the completion of mining tenure. These dams are often higher than 100 m, with a storage capacity of over hundreds of million cubic metres, serving a vital industrial function for the public. Unfortunately, when such a dam fails, it unleashes tremendous destructive power causing inundation of water and tailings mud over the downstream area resulting in fatalities, loss of property and infrastructure, and lasting environmental degradation. This book presents a condensed monograph on forensic investigations of select case histories of failed tailings dams. The selection tends to emphasize recent cases that have representative characteristics including those affecting the evolution of the current practice of tailings dam engineering. Efforts are made to facilitate readers’ understanding of important factors involved by using plain language. Technical terms are clearly explained before their usage. The objective of the monograph is to provide a neutral reference on tailings dam failure.The author hopes ongoing dialogues by all stakeholders on the important topics of dam safety will raise the safety standard of tailings dams to a new level compatible with public expectations of the sustainable mining industry.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;
