Batugamping yang berumur Paleogen-Neogen tersingkap cukup baik di tiga pulau utama di Indonesia Bagian Barat, yaitu Sumatera, Jawa dan Kalimantan. Hal ini tentu tidak terlepas dari keadaan geologi regional Asia Tenggara pada Paleogen-Neogen, yang mana ketiga pulau ini masih merupakan satu kesatuan, yaitu Dangkalan Sunda. Kesamaan runtunan stratigrafi Neogen di ketiga wilayah ini menghasilkan fo…
This authoritative book presents a comprehensive account of the essential roles of nonlinear dynamic and chaos theories in understanding, modeling, and forecasting hydrologic systems. This is done through a systematic presentation of: (1) information on the salient characteristics of hydrologic systems and on the existing theories for their modeling; (2) the fundamentals of nonlinear dynamic an…
This volume presents the contemporary issues surrounding groundwater pollution risk assessment and the application of vulnerability and risk assessment maps for the effective protection and management of aquifers. Numerous new and improved approaches to intrinsic and specific vulnerability assessment (modified DRASTIC, GOD, VULK, VURAAS) are described, some coupled with geophysical and hydrolog…
Kamus ini adalah hasil pemutakhiran kata dan istilah di bidang geologi dan ranah rinangkun seperti pertambangan, teknik sipil. dan lingkungan. Terbitan terakhir kumpulan seperti ini berlangsung hampir dua dasawarsa yang lalu. Dalam ketiadaan kamus rujukan, banyak penulis yang kemudian terpaksa menggunakan apa saja yang terjangkau. Selain itu, banyak naskah dan dokumen yang memerlukan padanan…
Buku Pengelolaan Daerah Aliran Sungai karya Mohammad Bisri merupakan referensi teknis dan manajerial yang komprehensif mengenai pentingnya pengelolaan DAS secara terpadu di Indonesia. Mengingat peran DAS sebagai satuan wilayah hidrologis yang krusial, buku ini mengupas berbagai aspek interaksi antara sumber daya alam dan aktivitas manusia yang memengaruhi keseimbangan ekosistem air dan tanah.
Maintaining its student-friendly writing style and smooth integration of core concepts and environmental issues, this best-selling introductory text has been updated to include coverage of recent geologic events, such as the 1995 Kobe earthquake, the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and 1995 World and Regional Population Growth data and projections. Now in its fifth edition, Environmental Geology ai…
It is true that these and other phases of technical work have received an impetus under the exigencies of petroleum geology but they are none the less important in many other line of geological research both theoretical and commercial. They are of particular concern to the student of structural and field geology since they afford useful tool for the more thorough study of subsurface conditions…
Geology (from the Greek Ge, the earth;logos, logical speech or science) is the science of the earth, its constitution, structure and development, of the processes going on in its atmospheric, aqueous and stone envelopes. The earth, the globe is comprised of several shells.
The science of geology is concerned with the earth and the rocks of which it is composed, the processes by which they were formed during geological time, and the modelling of the earth’s surface in the past and at the present day. The earth is not a static body, but is constantly subject to changes both at its surface and at deeper levels.
Structural geology is the study of the architecture of the earth in so far as it is determined by earth movements. Tectonics and tectonic geology are term that are synonymous with structural geology. The Movements that affect solid rocks results from forces within the earth; they cause folds, joints, faults and cleavage.
