  • Metasomatism and the Chemical Transformation of Rock

    The Role of Fluids in Terrestrial and Extraterrestrial Processes

    by Daniel Harlov, Hakon Austrheim ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Fluid-aided mass transfer and subsequent mineral re-equilibration are the two defining features of metasomatism and must be present in order for metamorphism to occur. Coupled with igneous and tectonic processes, metasomatism has played a major role in the formation of the Earth’s continental and oceanic crust and lithospheric mantle as well as in their evolution and subsequent stabilization. ...

  • Hydrogeology of Crystalline Rocks

    Edited by Kurt Bucher, I. Stober ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Hydrogeology of Crystalline Rocks deals with deep groundwater in the granite and gneiss basement of the continents. It has become evident during the past years that highly mineralized water is present in an interconnected fracture network of the basement. Thus, the upper part of the crust of the continents can be viewed as an aquifer and investigated with tools common in hydrogeology.This book ... Read more

  • The Nordic Seas

    Edited by Burton G. Hurdle ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    " ... as soon as one has traversed the greater part of the wild sea, one comes upon such a huge quantity of ice that nowhere in the whole world has the like been known." "This ice is of a wonderful nature. It lies at times quite still, as one would expect, with openings or large fjords in it; but sometimes its movement is so strong and rapid as to equal that of a ship running before the wind, and ...

  • Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks

    by Rodney Grapes, Kurt Bucher ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks presents a large number of diagrams showing the stability relations among minerals and groups of minerals found in metamorphic rocks. The diagrams help to determine the pressure and temperature conditions under which a given set of metamorphic rocks may have formed. Other parameters that control metamorphic mineral assemblages are also discussed and pitfalls ... Read more

  • Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks

    by K. Bucher, M. Frey ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Metamorphic rocks make up the largest volume of the Earth. They systematically change their mineralogical composition as a result of tecto-thermal events. The outstanding feature of the 7th edition of this book is the large number of phase diagrams showing the stability relations among minerals and groups of minerals found in metamorphic rocks. The diagrams help to determine the pressure and ... Read more
