  • Lake Issyk-Kul: Its Natural Environment

    Edición de J. Klerx, Beishen Imanackunov ...
    Series Libro 13 - NATO Science Series: IV
    Lake Issyk-Kul is a closed lake located in the Tien Shan mountain belt of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan. It is the world's fifth deepest lake (668 m) and the second largest high altitude lake in the world (1607 m above sea level). The lake is affected by several environmental threats of both anthropogenic and natural origin: decline of the lake level resulting in progressively increasing salinity, ... Leer más

  • Dying and Dead Seas Climatic Versus Anthropic Causes

    Series Libro 36 - NATO Science Series: IV
    There are incentive indications that the growth of human population, the increasing use and abuse of natural resources combined with climate changes (probably due to anthropic pollution, to some extent) exert a considerable stress on closed (or semi-enclosed) seas and lakes. In many regions of the world, marine and lacustrine hydrosystems are (or have been) the object of severe or fatal ... Leer más

  • Deep Marine Mineral Resources

    Edición de Yves Fouquet, Denis Lacroix ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The risks of shortages for some crucial metals and uncertainty about the land-based reserves of several others justify the search to diversify our sources of supply and investigate their potential. Mineral resources in the deep sea are attracting increasing interest with the progressive discovery of various forms of ores. France possesses large areas of deep seafloor in the three oceans as well as ... Leer más

  • Cretaceous Sea Level Rise

    Down Memory Lane and the Road Ahead

    de Mu Ramkumar ...
    Cretaceous Sea Level Rise delves into the question of whether the observed short-term sea-level changes are regional (tectonic) or global (eustatic) and determines their possible relation to climate cycles; to assess the role of feedback mechanisms, i.e. thermal expansion/contraction of seawater, subsidence due to loading by water, changing vegetation of the Earth System and to investigate the ...

  • Safety in Offshore Drilling

    The Role of Shallow Gas Surveys, Proceedings of an International Conference (Safety in Offshore Drilling) organized by the Society for Underwater Technology and held in London, U.K., April 25 & 26, 1990

    Edición de D.A. Ardus, C.D. Green ...
    Series Libro 25 - Advances in Underwater Technology, Ocean Science and Offshore Engineering
    Shallow Gas determination, prior to drilling, is carried out using 'Engineering Seismic' survey methods. Seismic acquisition data quality is fundamental in achieving this objective as both the data processing methods and interpretation accuracy are subject to the quality of the data obtained. The recent application of workstation based data analysis and interpretation has clearly demonstrated the ... Leer más

  • Ocean Resources

    Volume II Subsea Work Systems and Technologies

    Edición de D.A. Ardus, M.A. Champ ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Ocean engineering is generally considered to be concerned with studies on the effects of the ocean on the land and with the design, construction and operation of vehicles, structures and systems for use in the ocean or marine environment. The practice of engineering differs from that of science in both motivations and objectives. Science seeks understanding of the principles of nature in terms of ... Leer más

  • Submarine Landslides and Tsunamis

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Tsunamis are water waves triggered by impulsive geologic events such as sea floor deformation, landslides, slumps, subsidence, volcanic eruptions and bolide impacts. Tsunamis can inflict significant damage and casualties both nearfield and after evolving over long propagation distances and impacting distant coastlines. Tsunamis can also effect geomorphologic changes along the coast. Understanding ... Leer más
