Download or read book Geographers written by Hayden Lorimer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-29 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 34 of Geographers: Biobibliographical Studies features eight essays that together demonstrate geographers' diverse scholarly engagement with the practise of their subject. There are two physical geographers (a Frenchman and an Englishman, both geomorphologists), a British historical geographer, a French colonial geographer, a Russian explorer-naturalist of Central Asia and Tibet, a British-born but long-time Australian resident and scholar of India, Pakistan, and the Pacific world, an American regionalist and eugenicist, and a Scots-born long-time American resident, one of the world's leading Marxist geographers and urban theorists. Equally but differently committed to geography's many specialisms, these subjects wonderfully illuminate the vibrancy – and the contradictions – behind the living of geographical lives.

Book Synopsis Desertification by : Monique Mainguet
Download or read book Desertification written by Monique Mainguet and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Controversial, and often discussed with passion and vehemence, desertification is a problem on whose solution the survival of millions of humans is dependent. This book aims at an understanding of what is commonly called "desertification" - a term which has a connotation of irreversibility, spreading and emergence of desert-like landscapes: "land degradation" is proposed to replace it. The purpose is to present what has happened in reality, and what might be done. Illustrative worldwide analyses allow a more realistic evaluation of global land degradation. Each level of technology, excessive or insufficient, creates its own mismanagement. This is reflected in a decrease in soil productivity and eventually land degradation. The benefit to the reader is an awareness of the ecozones which have undergone the most severe land degradation, and a global overview of the phenomena, mechanisms and existing solutions.
Download or read book Basement Regions written by Alain Godard and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-27 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basement regions constitute more than two-thirds of outcropping bedrock material across our planet's continents. During the past 30 years French geomorphologists have contributed greatly to the characterization of some of the laws and patterns of landform evolution in shields and crystaliine areas with changing bioclimatic environments. This volume reflects the search for a better understanding of landscapes and landforms in igneous and metamorphic terrains at different latitudes. Furthermore, it covers a wide field of investigation gathered on four continents and addresses the issue at a wide range of spatial and timescales. It is an ideal volume not only for post-graduate geomorphology students but also for geoscience scholars concerned with igneous petrology, quaternary geology, physical geography, soil science and land use planning.
Book Synopsis The African Erosion Surface by : Kevin Burke
Download or read book The African Erosion Surface written by Kevin Burke and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this Memoir, Burke and Gunnell draw on anglophone and francophone work to analyze the African continent's distinctive basin-and-swell topography. Exploring topics such as landforms, bauxites and laterites, fission-track studies, climatic changes, volcanic rock distribution, hotspots, mantle plumes, and rifts, as well as deep and shallow mantle geophysics, ocean floor evolution, continental flooding, and offshore sediment deposition, the authors have pieced together a coherent, continent-wide reconstruction of landscape development during the past 200 million years. Two episodes of continental breakup and the formation of ocean floor were followed by erosion that reduced the continent to a low-elevation and low-relief African Surface by Late Cretaceous times. Africa's present-day topography developed mostly during the past 30 million years as the African Surface underwent swell uplift and climate changed radically after the Antarctic ice sheet first formed. Northern hemisphere glaciation and related Sahara initiation 3 million years ago were Africa's most recent great changes."--Publisher's website.
Book Synopsis The Gulf War and the Environment by : Farouk El-Baz
Download or read book The Gulf War and the Environment written by Farouk El-Baz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gulf War inflicted dramatic environmental damage upon the fragile desert and shore environments of Kuwait and north eastern Saudi Arabia. Marine environments experienced oil spills; inland, oil lakes and burning oil wells caused widespread pollution. This book, first published in 1994, presents an in-depth analysis of these environmental disasters, their long-term consequences, and potential ways to repair the damage.

Book Synopsis L'érosion entre nature et société by : Yvette Veyret
Download or read book L'érosion entre nature et société written by Yvette Veyret and published by Sedes. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'érosion, phènomène naturel dépendant de facteurs climatiques et tectoniques, de données topographiques, lithologiques et biogéographiques, contribue à modeler la surface des continents. Elle s'exprime en terme de bilans représentés par des formes majeures, des modelés d'échelle plus réduite et des dépôts qui traduisent une histoire complexe de durée variable allant de temps longs, géologiques, à des temps très courts. L'érosion est aussi un fait de société dont l'importance s'est affirmée avec la pression grandissante des groupes sociaux sur les milieux géographiques et avec le développement technologique. Certaines pratiques agricoles, la déforestation, l'urbanisation, l'aménagement des cours d'eau peuvent aggraver les mouvements de terrain, l'érosion hydrique, affecter divers domaines géogaphiques, les littoraux, les pentes des massifs montagneux, les vallées... L'érosion anthropique qui a commencé à se manifester selon des rythmes divers au Néolithique, présente des temps forts, temps de " l'archéologique ", temps historiques, et actuels. La société apparaît bien souvent comme un amplificateur des phénomènes érosifs et des " modifications climatiques ", mais elle contribue aussi, grâce à une connaissance suffisante des mécanismes et des modalités de l'érosion, à maîtriser celle-ci par des pratiques appropriées.
