◆JpGU2025 セール開催中！：2025年6月30日(月)ご注文分まで
※上記表示の販売価格は割引適用後の価格です 出版済み 3-5週間でお届けいたします。 Author: Fossen, Haakon (Universitetet i Bergen, Norway) / Teyssier, Christian (University of Minnesota) Publisher: Cambridge University Press ISBN: 9781108476232 Cover: HARDCOVER Date: 2024年12月 DESCRIPTION This advanced undergraduate textbook provides a thoroughly modern overview of plate tectonics and is the perfect resource for a capstone geology course. It presents plate tectonics as a multifaceted, interdisciplinary theory that unites many different geological observations and processes into a harmonious model so that readers grasp how the outer part of our planet works in relation to the deep interior. Supported by clear prose, helpful analogies, and stunning colour imagery, readers will gain an in-depth understanding of how and why plates interact to produce different topography, rock assemblages and deformation features along plate boundaries. Written by an author pairing renowned for their research, teaching, and textbook writing experience, this text covers necessary ground for a single-semester course without overwhelming readers and offers a truly accessible introduction to quantitative topics. Student-friendly features chart clear paths through every chapter and a rich suite of online resources bring plate tectonics to life. This accessible text is written by an author pairing renowned for their research, teaching and textbook writing experience. Data and imagery from around the globe connect the theory with geological phenomena seen in the field Spectacular full-colour field photos, maps, sections, data plots, models and schematics aid visualisation and bring theory to life Up-to-date scholarship explores some of the most recent research questions in Earth science A comparison of tectonic processes on Earth with other terrestrial bodies invites readers into discussion of the latest evidence and theories for the evolution of tectonics through geologic time Learning objectives, bolded key concepts, focus boxes on issues and phenomena, summaries, review questions, recommended reading, and a glossary all invite students to take ownership of their learning journey Quantitative exercises with solutions, animations, videos, curated links to other tools and materials and more complete the teaching p TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.
