Bøker i Encyclopedia of Earth Sciences Series-serien

Provides an introduction to general field work through selected topics that illustrate specific techniques and methodologies. This book includes one hundred and twenty-three main entries that deal with aspects of exploration surveys, geotechnical engineering, environmental management, field techniques, mapping, prospecting, and mining.

Deals with the nature and genesis of igneous rocks that have crystallized from molten magma, and of metamorphic rocks that are the products of re-crystallization associated with increases in temperature and pressure, mainly at considerable depths in the Earth's crust.

This unique volume, organized alphabetically by country, provides a current overview of the general geology of Europe and Asia, excluding the Arab countries and Israel.
