  • Geological Sequestration of Carbon Dioxide

    Thermodynamics, Kinetics, and Reaction Path Modeling

    by Luigi Marini ...
    Series Book 11 - Developments in Geochemistry
    The contents of this monograph are two-scope. First, it intends to provide a synthetic but complete account of the thermodynamic and kinetic foundations on which the reaction path modeling of geological CO2 sequestration is based. In particular, a great effort is devoted to review the thermodynamic properties of CO2 and of the CO2-H2O system and the interactions in the aqueous solution, the ... Read more

  • Nature's Clocks

    How Scientists Measure the Age of Almost Everything

    by Doug Macdougall ...
    "Radioactivity is like a clock that never needs adjusting," writes Doug Macdougall. "It would be hard to design a more reliable timekeeper." In Nature's Clocks, Macdougall tells how scientists who were seeking to understand the past arrived at the ingenious techniques they now use to determine the age of objects and organisms. By examining radiocarbon (C-14) dating—the best known of these methods ... Read more

  • Global Positioning System

    Theory and Practice

    by Herbert Lichtenegger, Bernhard Hofmann-Wellenhof, James Collins ...
    This book is dedicated to Dr. Benjamin William Remondi for many reasons. The project of writing a Global Positioning System (GPS) book was con ceived in April 1988 at a GPS meeting in Darmstadt, Germany. Dr. Remondi discussed with me the need for an additional GPS textbook and suggested a possible joint effort. In 1989, I was willing to commit myself to such a project. Unfortunately, the timing ...
