Book Synopsis Paleomagnetism by : Michael W. McElhinny
Download or read book Paleomagnetism written by Michael W. McElhinny and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1999-10-18 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paleomagnetism is the study of the fossil magnetism in rocks. It has been paramount in determining that the continents have drifted over the surface of the Earth throughout geological time. The fossil magnetism preserved in the ocean floor has demonstrated how continental drift takes place through the process of sea-floor spreading. The methods and techniques used in paleomagnetic studies of continental rocks and of the ocean floor are described and then applied to determining horizontal movements of the Earth's crust over geological time. An up-to-date review of global paleomagnetic data enables 1000 million years of Earth history to be summarized in terms of the drift of the major crustal blocks over the surface of the Earth. The first edition of McElhinny's book was heralded as a "classic and definitive text." It thoroughly discussed the theory of geomagnetism, the geologic reversals of the Earth's magnetic field, and the shifting of magnetic poles. In the 25 years since the highly successful first edition of Palaeomagnetism and Plate Tectonics (Cambridge, 1973) the many advances in the concepts, methodology, and insights into paleomagnetism warrant this new treatment. This completely updated and revised edition of Paleomagnetism: Continents and Oceans will be a welcome resource for a broad audience of earth scientists as well as laypeople curious about magnetism, paleogeography, geology, and plate tectonics. Because the book is intended for a wide audience of geologists, geophysicists, and oceanographers, it balances the mathematical and descriptive aspects of each topic. Details the theory and methodology of rock magnetism, with particular emphasis on intrepreting crustal movements from continental and oceanic measurements Outlines Earth history for the past 1000 million years, from the Rodinia super-continent through its breakup and the formation of Gondwana to the formation and breakup of Pangea and the amalgamation of Eurasia Provides a comprehensive treatment of oceanic paleomagnetism Provides a set of color pateogeographic maps covering the past 250 million years Written by two internationally recognized experts in the field
Book Synopsis New Approaches In Geomagnetism And The Earth's Rotation by : S Flodmark
Download or read book New Approaches In Geomagnetism And The Earth's Rotation written by S Flodmark and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1991-01-30 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rotation of the Earth and its relation to geomagnetism are topics that have been under debate for more than a century. In this volume both of these phenomena are discussed in the light of new approaches. Keith Runcorn presents a survey of the papers and concluding remarks. F Richard Stephenson gives a thorough review of the history of the Earth's rotation whilst Stig Flodmark finds an explanation for the Chandler wobbles and the drift of the polar axis. A New Approach to Polar Motion by Losito et al. gives another view of the same theory. The fascinating idea of a single-crystal inner core is discussed by Flodmark and Weber and magnetic rigidity in the Earth is a new concept dealt with by Mörner. The mechanisms behind magnetic reversals, ice ages and earthquakes are other subjects under debate. It is hoped that the present volume will encourage forthcoming debates on these subjects.

Book Synopsis New Developments in Paleomagnetism Research by : Lev V. Eppelbaum
Download or read book New Developments in Paleomagnetism Research written by Lev V. Eppelbaum and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paleomagnetic field analysis occupies a separate place in the variety of studied physical parameters, since it assists us in obtaining specific stamps' of past geomagnetic field configurations. It is well-known that life on Earth and all geological-environmental processes occur in the changing geomagnetic field (the Earth's magnetic field intensity is now decreasing). Geological-geophysical records indicate that hundreds and hundreds of Earth's magnetic field reversals have occurred. Paleomagnetic research has revealed information about ancient (from hundreds to billions years ago) magnetic field changes, which reflects definite geological, archaeological, cosmological and environmental events of that time. Some geodynamic and tectonic information derived from paleomagnetic field analysis cannot be obtained by any other geophysical or geological methods. This book reveals the current understanding of leading scientists studying paleomagnetic on new approaches and results in different regions of the world. Three main issues are presented in the book: a comparison of the Earth's geomagnetic field and the Earth's biota evolution processes over the last 2.5 billion years (Chapter 1); combined paleomagnetic mapping examples of some areas of the Eastern Mediterranean (Chapter 2); various aspects of archaeomagnetic artifact examination, including advanced mathematical approach applications (Chapters 3 and 4); and utilisation of geomagnetic data from the past for historical reconstruction of China and Mesoamerica (Chapter 5). The five chapters present results of investigations of scientists from different scientific schools and demonstrate the application of various methods and approaches to analyse ancient and comparatively recent geomagnetic fields. Undoubtedly, these results are interesting both from theoretical and practical points of view. This book is intended for students of corresponding specialties, geologists, geophysicists, archaeologists and environmental scientists. This book can also be of interest to the general public interested in paleomagnetism, archaeology, geology and geophysics.

Book Synopsis An Australian Phanerozoic Timescale by : Gavin C. Young
Download or read book An Australian Phanerozoic Timescale written by Gavin C. Young and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives a new global perspective to the Phanerozoic timescale, by bringing together extensive Australian and overseas research on biostratigraphy, geochronology and magnetostratigraphy. For the first time, correlations are established between Australian and European biozonal schemesfor the entire Phanerozoic, by integrating local and international biozones, isotopic ages, and magnetic polarity intervals. The compilation relies on tie points using tightly constrained isotopic and biostratigraphic ages. It is the first Phanerozoic scale whose time calibration is heavilyweighted by modern application of isotopic dating of the 1980s and 1990s, especially variants of 40 Ar/39Ar and U/Pb zircon-dating, which have radically rescaled some parts of geologic time. An Australian Phanerozoic Timescale gives the essential framework for resource exploration, geologicmodelling, and reconstruction of past environments and land-sea configurations during the last 545 million years of earth history. The book comes with 12 extended charts (size 650 x 190 mm) boxed together.
