Planetary geological processes
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2014In 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 ...

Processes of geological evolution
Journal of the Geological Society, 1971T 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.

Geological Processes and Evolution
Space Science Reviews, 2001Geological 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 ...

The Geological Characterization Process
1994The primary objective of almost every geological characterization is concerned with predicting the spatial variation of one or more geological variables. In this context, a variable is defined as any property of the geological subsurface that exhibits spatial variability and can be measured in terms of real numeric values.

Groundwater in Geologic Processes
2006The 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, 1985The 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

Prediction of Exogenic Geological Processes
2007Prediction of exogenic geological processes (EGP) involves scientifically substantiated forecasting of events in space and time under the action of natural and anthropogenically induced factors. The goal of the EGP prediction is to give the answers to the three basic questions — where, when and of which activity (size) one or another type of exogenic ...

Fluids in geological processes
1994The role of fluids in the Earth’s crust and mantle has been a subject of debate by penologists, geochemists and geophysicists for much of the present century, and an extensive literature exists in both English and Russian.
