Series: Encyclopedia of Earth Sciences Series Author: Gupta, Harsh K.(Editor) Publisher: Springer ISBN: 9783030586300 Cover: HARDCOVER Date: 2021年05月 DESCRIPTION 地球物理学を専攻する学生や専門家必携の一冊 確立された概念や新たな概念を詳述 340名を超す一流の著者による寄稿文を特徴とする In the 21st century the importance of earth sciences in the pursuit of knowledge and understanding of the planet on which we live, has increased tremendously. Above all, they address the challenge of enriching human lives with the bounties of nature, while preserving the planet for future generations. The chief goals of Solid Earth Geophysics are to define and quantify the internal structure and processes of the Earth in terms of physical principles, and to provide an essential framework that allied disciplines can employ for more focused investigations. The earliest version of The Encyclopedia of Solid Earth Geophysics was released by Van Nostrand Reinhold publishing company in 1989. More than two decades later, a completely revised and updated version, edited by Prof. Harsh K. Gupta, was published in 2011. Including over 200 articles authored by specialists from all over the world, it was very well received. Reflecting the rapid advances in Solid Earth Geophysics over the past decade and the global need for an authentic update, this new edition of the Encyclopedia presents over 250 articles covering established and new concepts in Geophysics across various sub-disciplines such as Gravity, Geodesy, Geomagnetism, Seismology, Seismics, Deep Earth Processes, Plate Tectonics, Thermal Domains, Computational Methods, etc. in a systematic and consistent format. Offering an authoritative and current up-to-date reference source with extraordinary scope and gathering expert contributions by more than 300 authors around the globe, the new edition will serve as a valuable and cherished source of information for current and future generations of professionals. Review from the first edition: “The Encyclopedia of Solid Earth Geophysics … nicely brings together numerous geophysical topics and presents this sometimes dry, mathematical and abstract field in a language comprehensible to researchers, teachers, students, and professional geophysicists. … the new encyclopedia should be of great interest to petroleum explorers, researchers and educators as well. … A list of references at the end of each article directs the interested reader for further research.” (Rasoul Sorkhabi, GEO ExPro, September, 2013) TABLE OF CONTENTS Absolute Age Determinations: Radiometric;- Anthropogenic Seismicity Related to Exploitation of Georesources;- Archaeomagnetism;- Artificial Water Reservoir-Triggered Earthquakes, with Special Emphasis on Koyna, India;- Biogeophysics;- Body Waves;- Borehole Seismic Networks and Arrays;- Characteristic Earthquakes and Seismic Gaps;- Continental Crustal Structure;- Continental Drift;- Continental Rifts;- Core Dynamo;- Core-Mantle Coupling;- Crustal Reflectivity (Oceanic) and Magma Chamber;- Curie Temperature;- Deep Scientific Drilling;- Deep Seismic Reflection and Refraction Profiling;- Differential Rotation of the Earth’s Inner Core;- etc.
