This book is concerned with recent developments in our understanding of how earthquakes interact with each other. althoughthis subject has attracted the attention of geophysicists for many years (Rybick, 1973;Chinnery and Landers, 1975;Das and Scholz, 1981;Rice and Gu, 1983), it has not been studied in the detail that it deserves. For this reason th…

The textbook is intended for the economic geologist who deals with the evalution of deposits at an early stage of development. It offers rules for quick and easy calculations based on the application of application of approximate data. It provides both the students and the geologist in the field with a complete set of rules and methods enabling them…
Mineral deposits are not only primary sources of wealth generation, but also act as windows through which to view the evolution and interrelationships of the earth system depositeformed throughout the last 3.8 billion years of the earth's history preserve key evidence with which to test fundamental questions about the evolution of the earth. these i…
specific attention is paid to research from different areas and disciplines .key topics addressed include: - where do terigenous-sourced oils exist and what are the limits of our knowledge of them? - geochemical characterization and interpretationof terrigenous oils. - evolution of plants and implication for oil generation. - Oil generation and expu…
since karl pearson wrote his paper on spurious correlation in 1897, a lot has been said about the statistical analysis of compositional data, mainly by geologists such as felix chayes. the solution appeared in the 1980s, when john aitchison proposed to use logratios. since then, the approach has seen a great expansion, sample space. statistics is ex…
Coal in a aggregate of heterogeneous subtances composed of organic materials. The organic Materials are derived mainly from plant remains which have undergone various degrees of decomposition in the peat swamps and physical and chemical alteration after burial. Optically homogeneous organic materials in coal are called macerals. There are three majo…
The world reserves of coal are larger than those of petroleum and natural gas, and the production capacity for coal currently exceeds that for oil shale, tar sands, peat, and the other less developed fossil energy reserves. As a result, coal is the projected resource alternative for energy and materials well into the next century. whith this increas…
