GEOLOGICAL INFORMATION ABOUT GEOLOGICAL PHENOMENA, THREATENING CITIES
Crisis Management and Technologies, 2023It is statistically calculated, that in general one in every hundred thousand people on Earth dies from natural disasters. Natural disasters that have occurred around the world over the past 20 years have killed 1.3 million people and caused over $ 2.9 trillion in property damage, according to a report by the United Nations Office for Disaster ...

Cellular Automata Approaches for Simulating Rheology of Complex Geological Phenomena
1998Cellular Automata (CA) permit sometime an alternative method to differential equations for modelling and simulating some kind of complex systems, which can be described in terms of local interactions of their constituent parts. Typical application fields of CA are microscopic physical phenomena with elementary automata, which have few states and a ...

Correlating magnetic field polarity changes with geologic phenomena
Geology, 1985Two reported correlations are discussed in this paper: the first claims a correlation between magnetic polarity and oxidation state of igneous rocks, and the second claims that the Hawaiian hot-spot chain exhibits a significantly dominant normal-polarity bias.

EMERGENT CHEMO-HYDRO-MECHANICAL PHENOMENA IN CARBON GEOLOGICAL STORAGE
2011The combustion of fossil fuels produces carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon capture and geological storage (CCS) has been proposed to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. The properties of CO2 depend on pressure and temperature: it can be found as a gas, liquid, or supercritical, and it reacts with water to produce carbonic acid lowering

On the Basin of the Firth of Forth, and some of its Geological Phenomena
Proceedings of the Royal Society of EdinburghI. An account was given of the dimensions of the estuary, in respect of length, width, and depth; and also of the general direction of the axis of the estuary.II. It was next shown that the formation of the estuary was probably due to the great geological fractures and dislocations which had taken place in this part of Scotland, inasmuch as the ...

Part V. Igneous phenomena and geologic structure near Mapimi
Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1936INTRODUCTION This paper discusses the geology of an area of about 150 square miles, extending north and northeast from the town of Mapimi, in north-eastern Durango, Mexico. The location is shown by Figure 1. The area contains an abundance of both intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks and affords an opportunity to correlate part of the igneous geology ...

Equipment and method for study of nonlinear and relaxation phenomena in geological medium
5th EAGE International Scientific and Practical Conference and Exhibition on Engineering and Mining Geophysics, 2009Целью настоящей работы являются экспериментальные исследования нелинейных и релаксацион- ных свойств геологической среды как с точки зрения признаков ее напряженно-деформированного и метастабильного состояния, так и в аспекте локализации нелинейных объектов и структур при взаимодействии энергетических полей, в том числе и различной физической природы.

Potential Conflict Situations arising from Geological Settings and Environmental Phenomena [PDF]
The development of petroleum resources involves activities which impact across man-made boundaries. Settlement of boundary disputes may not completely end petroleum-related international disputes in the areas of exploratory research, petroleum production, and environmental control.

On the nature and origin of the surface or vegetable soil, and its influence on geological phenomena
Transactions of the Edinburgh Geological Society, 1877In the year 1683, a Dr Lister asked the Royal Society of England to prepare a map of the soils of England, for the reason that if it were noted how far these extended, and if the limits of each soil appeared on a map, something more might be comprehended than he could possibly foresee, which would make the labour well worth the pains, ‶for I am of ...
