Introduction to Applied Geophysics
Offering a chapter on each of the most common methods of exploration, the text explains in detail how each method is performed and discusses that method s geologic, engineering, and environmental applications. In addition to ample examples, illustrations, and applications throughout, each chapter concludes with a problem set. The text is also accompanied by the Field Geophysics Software Suite, an innovative CD-ROM that allows students to experiment with refraction and reflection seismology, gravity, magnetics, electrical resistivity, and ground-penetrating radar methods of exploration."
Introduction to Applied Geophysics
This edition of Introduction to Applied Geophysics from Cambridge University Press is a re-issue of the W.W. Norton edition (2006). This classic textbook covers the fundamental methods of exploration geophysics in a depth and style both challenging and appropriate to undergraduates, and is supported by an extensive package of software.
Man-made Catastrophes and Risk Information Concealment
This book discusses the risks of information concealment in the context of major natural or industrial disasters – offering detailed descriptions and analyses of some 25 historical cases (Three Mile Island nuclear accident, Bhopal disaster, Challenger Space Shuttle explosion, Chernobyl nuclear disaster, Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear disaster, Enron’s bankruptcy, Subprime mortgage crisis, Worldwide Spanish flu and SARS outbreaks, etc.) and applying these insights to selected on-going cases where such information concealment is suspected. Some successful examples of preventive anti-concealment practice are also presented. In the book, the term ‘concealment’ is ...
