Geological Processes and Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2001
Geological mapping and establishment of stratigraphic relationships provides an overview of geological processes operating on Mars and how they have varied in time and space. Impact craters and basins shaped the crust in earliest history and as their importance declined, evidence of extensive regional volcanism emerged during the Late Noachian ...

Parallel evolutionary modelling of geological processes

Parallel Computing, 2007
This paper illustrates a parallel computing methodology for modelling and simulating geological processes by means of Cellular Automata and Parallel Genetic Algorithms. Two models, concerning lava and debris flows, have been implemented using the Cellular Automata development environment CAMELot, and calibrated by means of Genetic Algorithms through ...

Wind as a geological process

Endeavour, 1985
This book gives an account of geological aspects of windblown material. Aeolian processes play an important role in modifying the surface of the Earth, and they are also active on Mars. Additionally, they are thought to occur on Venus and possibly Titan as well.

Processes of geological evolution

Journal of the Geological Society, 1971
T he heart of geology has always been represented by a synthesis of diverse disciplines. In the early days of our science, it was from this synthesis that the great historical pageant of the last four thousand million years was built up.

Planetary geological processes

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2014
In this introduction to planetary geology, we review the major geologic processes affecting the solid bodies of the solar system, namely volcanism, tectonism, impact cratering, and erosion. We illustrate the interplay of these processes in different worlds, briefly reviewing how they affect the surfaces of the Earth's Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars ...

Rates of geological processes

Earth-Science Reviews, 2021
Abstract Rates are widely used to characterize processes in the geological sciences, and the ratios that rates represent deserve more careful attention. The numerator is a measure of change or difference, and the denominator is generally a corresponding interval of time.

Groundwater in Geologic Processes

2006
The 2006 second edition of this well received and widely adopted textbook has been extensively revised to provide a more comprehensive treatment of hydromechanics (the coupling of groundwater flow and deformation), to incorporate findings from the substantial body of research published since the first edition, and to include three new chapters on ...

Image processing applications for geologic mapping

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 1985
The use of satellite data, particularly Landsat images, for geologic mapping provides the geologist with a powerful tool. The digital format of these data permits applications of image processing to extract or enhance information useful for mapping purposes. Examples are presented of lithologic classification using texture measures, automatic lineament
