Book Synopsis History of Palaeobotany by : A. J. Bowden
Download or read book History of Palaeobotany written by A. J. Bowden and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2005 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often regarded as the 'Cinderella' of palaeontological studies, palaeobotany has a history that contains some fascinating insights into scientific endeavour, especially by palaeontologists who were perusing a personal interest rather than a career. The problems of maintaining research facilities in universities, especially in the modern era, are described and reveal a noticeable absence of a national UK strategy to preserve centres of excellence in an avowedly specialist area. Accounts of some of the pioneers demonstrate the importance of collaboration between taxonomists and illustrators. The importance of palaeobotany in the rise of geoconservation is outlined, as well as the significant and influential role of women in the discipline. Although this volume has a predominantly UK focus, two very interesting studies outline the history of palaeobotanical work in Argentina and China.

Book Synopsis Contributions to Modern and Ancient Tidal Sedimentology by : Bernadette Tessier
Download or read book Contributions to Modern and Ancient Tidal Sedimentology written by Bernadette Tessier and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tidal deposits have been a specific research topic for about 40 years, and whilst this has resulted in a proliferation of papers in scientific journals, there have only been a few book-length syntheses. Over the years, tidal sedimentology has been reinforced by fluid mechanics and numerical modelling but has remained rooted in facies and stratigraphic studies. Recent developments in tidal sedimentology lean toward a more quantitative assessment of the imprint of tides in the facies record of intertidal and shallow subtidal areas. They highlight the increasing relevance of tidal deposits studies, from high resolution subsurface reservoir geology to climate change and sea-level rise. This volume gathers 17 contributions to the Tidalites 2012 congress held in Caen, France. It reflects current advances in the sedimentology and stratigraphy of tidal deposits, in both ancient and modern environments. It shows the current diversity of this field of research, through a wide spectrum of methods including remote sensing, in-situ hydrodynamical measurements, and ichnology, in addition to classic field studies and petrography.
Book Synopsis The Role of Women in the History of Geology by : Cynthia V. Burek
Download or read book The Role of Women in the History of Geology written by Cynthia V. Burek and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2007 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a first as it unravels the diverse roles women have played in the history and development of geology as a science predominantly in the UK, Ireland and Australia, and selectively in Germany, Russia and US. The volume covers the period from the late eighteenth century to the present day and shows how the roles that women have played changed with time. These included illustrators, museum collectors and curators, educationalists, researchers and geologists. Originally as wives, sisters or mothers many were assistants to their male relatives. This book looks at all these forgotten women and for the first time historians and scientists together explore the contribution they made to this male-dominated subject.
Book Synopsis Coal and Coalbed Gas by : Romeo M. Flores
Download or read book Coal and Coalbed Gas written by Romeo M. Flores and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-01-24 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coal and Coalbed Gas: Future Directions and Opportunities, Second Edition introduces the latest in coal geology research and the engineering of gas extraction. Importantly, the second edition examines how, over the last 10 years, research has both changed focus and where it is conducted. This shift essentially depicts "a tale of two worlds"—one half (Western Europe, North America) moving away from coal and coalbed gas research and production towards cleaner energy resources, and the other half (Asia–Pacific region, Eastern Europe, South America) increasing both research and usage of coal. These changes are marked by a precipitous fall in coalbed gas production in North America; however, at the same time there has been a significant rise in coal and coalbed gas production in Australia, China, and India. The driver for higher production and its associated research is a quest for affordable energy and economic security that a large resource base brings to any country like Australia’s first large-scale coalbed gas to liquid natural gas projects supplying the demand for cleaner burning LNG to the Asian-Pacific region. Since the last edition of this book, global climate change policies have more forcibly emphasized the impact of methane from coal mines and placed these emissions equal to, or even more harmful than, CO2 emissions from fossil fuels in general. Governmental policies have prioritized capture, use, and storage of CO2, burning coal in new highly efficient low emission power plants, and gas pre-drainage of coal mines. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries and China are also introducing new research into alternative, non-fuel uses for coal, such as carbon fibers, nanocarbons, graphene, soil amendments, and as an unconventional ore for critical elements. New to this edition: Each chapter is substantially changed from the 1st edition including expanded and new literature citations and reviews, important new data and information, new features and materials, as well as re-organized and re-designed themes. Importantly, three new chapters cover global coal endowment and gas potential, groundwater systems related to coalbed gas production and biogenic gas generation as well as the changing landscape of coal and coalbed gas influenced by global climate change and net-zero carbon greenhouse gas emissions. FOREWORD When I reviewed the first edition of this book, my initial thought was, "Do we need another book on coal geology?" and then I read it and realised, "Yes, we need this book" and my students downloaded copies as soon as it was available. So now we come to 2023, and a lot has happened in the past decade. For a different reason we might ask if we still need this book, or even coal geoscientists and engineers, as the world aims for rapid decarbonisation of the energy sector and a reduction of coal as a feedstock for industrial resources, like steel manufacture.

Book Synopsis Soils of the Past by : Gregory J. Retallack
Download or read book Soils of the Past written by Gregory J. Retallack and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-30 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been 10 years since publication of the first edition ofSoils of the Past. In that time the subject of paleopedology hasgrown rapidly, and established itself within the mainstream ofgeological research. Ancient soils contain vital mineralogical, geochemical,textural, and paleontological information about the continentalenvironments in which they formed. Advances in isotope geochemistryand sequence-stratigraphic models allow more detailedreconstructions of environmental change from paleosols and newinsights into diverse topics like atmospheric chemistry, globalchange, palaeoecology, geobiology and mass extinction. This fully updated second edition of soils of the past givesdescribes the main types of ancient soil, procedures for theirrecognition and study, their classification and, mostsignificantly, a wide array of examples of how paleosols have beenused for paleoenvironmental reconstruction. Soils of the Past is written for advanced undergraduatesstudying paleopedology as part of a degree in geology,environmental science, or physical geography, and for interestedprofessional earth scientists. In the last few years however palaeopedology has become anestablished discipline in its own right, so the time is ripe for anew edition. This new book will be a good reflection of the currentstate of knowledge and be widely adopted. First edition was very well received and sold over 1500 copieswhen the subject was relatively new. The field has now grownenormously and the second edition should do considerablybetter. The new edition covers new developments in the field such as:Soils and Climate, stable isotope analysis of soils, soils andsequence stratigraphy. This edition represents the only available overview of thesubject at this level.
