Marine Geo-Hazards in China (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Marine Geo-Hazards in China, the first book to focus specifically on potential marine geological hazards in China, includes 19 chapters with varying focus on key issues surrounding the topic.

Early chapters discuss the historical background, research progress, and geological environments in China's sea area. Next, multiple chapters present special topics on geological hazards in China's sea area, including its disaster pregnant environment, mechanisms of disaster change, the development regularity and disaster formation process, and existing or potential dangers and countermeasures. Final chapters present the latest information on the distribution, development, assessment, and risk analysis of marine geological hazards.

This book is an important source of information for government and local policymakers, environmental and marine scientists, and engineers.

• Discusses the background, current research, and systematically reviews the history, major advances in the studies in the field, and demonstrates the development prospect of this subject.
• Contains and summarizes the author's longstanding achievements in the field, as well as includes a wide range of researches conducted both locally and overseas.
• Systematically summarizes the basic characteristics of the distribution and development of the main types of geological hazards in China seas.
• Puts forward the scheme of marine geological disaster regionalization of China, and is significant for researches in other countries or regions.
