Sediment Transfer from Shelf to Deep Water by Roger M. Slatt Book PDF Summary

The topic of hyperpycnal flows and their deposits, hyperpycnites, has recently emerged as the latest in a long list of hotly debated topics on deep-water sedimentary processes, environments, and deposits. This collection of chapters offers important new insights into the sediment delivery system to deep-marine waters.

Mass transport Deposits in Deepwater Settings

Mass transport Deposits in Deepwater Settings by R. Craig Shipp,Paul Weimer,Henry W. Posamentier

Historically, submarine-mass failures or mass-transport deposits have been a focus of increasingly intense investigation by academic institutions particularly during the last decade, though they received much less attention by geoscientists in the energy industry. With recent interest in expanding petroleum exploration and production into deeper water-depths globally and more widespread

Biogeochemical Dynamics at Major River Coastal Interfaces

Biogeochemical Dynamics at Major River Coastal Interfaces by Thomas S. Bianchi,Mead A. Allison,Wei-Jun Cai

This volume provides a state-of-the-art summary of biogeochemical dynamics at major river-coastal interfaces for advanced students and researchers. River systems play an important role (via the carbon cycle) in the natural self-regulation of Earth's surface conditions by serving as a major sink for anthropogenic CO2. Approximately 90 percent of global carbon

Climate Change and Food Security in South Asia

Climate Change and Food Security in South Asia by Rattan Lal,Mannava VK Sivakumar,S.M.A. Faiz,A.H.M. Mustafizur Rahman,Khandakar R. Islam

This book addresses an important topic of food security in South Asia with specific reference to climate change. Of the 1 billion food insecure people in the world, more than 30% are in South Asia. The problem of food insecurity may be exacerbated by the projected climate change especially because of the

Geological Processes on Continental Margins

Geological Processes on Continental Margins by M. S. Stoker,Daniel Evans,Adrian Cramp

Continental margins form the relatively narrow transition zones between the different domains of land masses and deep-ocean basins. They are the main regions of sediment input and transfer of sediments to the oceans and thus represent important zones of sediment flux. This work addresses three topics of significance to continental
