Sand and Sandstone

Sand and Sandstone by F. J. Pettijohn , Paul Edwin Potter , Raymond Siever
English | PDF | 1972 | 632 Pages | ISBN : 0387900713 | 102 MB

This book is the outgrowth of a week-long conference on sandstone organized by the authors, first held at Banff, Alberta, in 1964 under the auspices of the Alberta Association of Petroleum Geologists and the University of Alberta, and again, in 1965, at Bloomington, Indiana, under the sponsorship of the Indiana Geological Survey and the Department of Geology, Indiana University. A 2- page syllabus was prepared for the second conference and published by the Indiana Geological Survey. Continuing interest in and demand for the syllabus prompted us to update and expand its contents. The result is this book. We hope this work will be useful as a text or supplementary text for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in sedimentation, sedimentary petrology, or general petrology and perhaps will be helpful to the teachers of such courses. Though we have focussed on sandstones we have necessarily included much of interest to students of all sediments. We hope also that it will be a useful reference work for the professional geologist, especially those concerned with petroleum, ground-water, and economic geology either in industry or government. Because the subject is so closely tied to surface processes it may also be of interest to geo­ morphologists and engineers who deal with beaches and rivers where sand is in transit.

Ground Water Abstraction Structures

Ground Water Abstraction Structures by Divya A.S. , Joji V.S.
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 101 Pages | ISBN : 303134880X | 25.9 MB

This book focuses on natural and manmade structures which are used for drawing groundwater to the surface. Groundwater extraction structures include open dug wells (small-diameter open wells and large-diameter irrigation wells), tube wells, filter point wells, bore wells, surangams, and dug-cum-bore wells. Early abstraction structures were mainly natural but more manmade structures are now in use due to technological developments.

Water, Climate Change, and Sustainability

Water, Climate Change, and Sustainability by Vishnu Prasad Pandey, Sangam Shrestha, David Wiberg
English | PDF | 2021 | 261 Pages | ISBN : 1119564441 | 9.8 MB

An in-depth review of sustainable concepts in water resources management under climate change
Climate change continues to intensify existing pressures in water resources management, such as rapid population growth, land use changes, pollution, damming of rivers, and many others. Securing a reliable water supply—critical for achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—requires understanding of the relation between finite water resources, climate variability/change, and various elements of sustainability. Water, Climate Change, and Sustainability is a timely and in-depth examination of the concept of sustainability as it relates to water resources management in the context of climate change risks.

Sustainable Development in Changing Complex Earth Systems

Sustainable Development in Changing Complex Earth Systems by Attila Kerényi
English | EPUB | 2020 | 307 Pages | ISBN : 3030216446 | 59 MB

This book applies system theory to analyze the operation and structure of the complex earth surface system, including the interactions between society and nature that cause environmental degradation and threats to human populations. The possible ways to harmonize the operation of a global society as a complex system using the United Nation sustainable development goals are investigated, as well as the major efforts currently implemented to achieve this objective and why many are unsuccessful.
