Paleoclimatology
Life on our planet depends upon having a climate that changes within narrow limits – not too hot for the oceans to boil away nor too cold for the planet to freeze over. Over the past billion years Earth’s average temperature has stayed close to 14-15°C, oscillating between warm greenhouse states and cold icehouse states. We live with variation, but a variation with limits. Paleoclimatology is the science of understanding and explaining those variations, those limits, and the forces that control them. Without that understanding we will not be able to foresee future change accurately as our population grows. Our impact on the planet is now equal to a geological force, such that many geolo...
Fault-Zone Properties and Earthquake Rupture Dynamics
The dynamics of the earthquake rupture process are closely related to fault zone properties which the authors have intensively investigated by various observations in the field as well as by laboratory experiments. These include geological investigation of the active and fossil faults, physical and chemical features obtained by the laboratory experiments, as well as the seismological estimation from seismic waveforms. Earthquake dynamic rupture can now be modeled using numerical simulations on the basis of field and laboratory observations, which should be very useful for understanding earthquake rupture dynamics.Features:* First overview of new and improved techniques in the study of earthquake faulting* Broad coverage* Full colorBenefits:* A must-have for all geophysicists who work on earthquake dynamics* Single resource for all aspects of earthquake dynamics (from lab measurements to seismological observations to numerical modelling)* Bridges the disciplines of seismology, structural geology and rock mechanics* Helps readers to understand and interpret graphs and mapsAlso has potential use as a supplementary resource for upper division and graduate geophysics courses.

Vectorial Transport of Proteins into and across Membranes
This is the third volume in this series covering protein translocation within and between cells. Volumes 31 and 32, Vesicular Transport, Parts A and B, treated techniques for eukaryotic cells available as of 1989. Vectorial Transport of Proteins into and across Membranes, brings together new methods and new topics as of 1991. Highlights include use of anti-idiotype antibodies, gene fusions, transcription, crosslinking, pulse-labeling, and reconstitution. - Describes contemporary approaches for studying protein transport, protein topology and organelle biogenesis - Covers methods from pre-eminent laboratories including: In vitro and in vivo investigations; Biochemical and immunological techniques; Prokaryote, chloroplast, mitochondria, peroxisome, and rough endoplasmic reticulum membranes
