A Journey Through Tides
Editat de Mattias Green, Joao C. Duarteen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 sep 2022
There are many other processes that drive and modify the tides, hence this book also describes why there is a tide, how it has changed since Earth’s early days, and what consequences the tides, and changes in the tides, have on other parts of the Earth system.
- Presents a fully comprehensive overview on tides that goes beyond the field of oceanography
- Provides a state-of-the-art review on science related to tides, a fundamental element in the Earth System that regulates our planet
- Explores the limits of our knowledge, including much ongoing research on deep time tides, future tides, tides in exoplanets, and more
- Includes a website with tectonic animations and associated tidal evolution videos for interactive learning
