Volcanoes of the Azores: Revealing the Geological Secrets of the Central Northern Atlantic Islands de Ulrich Kueppers

Volcanoes of the Azores: Revealing the Geological Secrets of the Central Northern Atlantic Islands: Active Volcanoes of the World

Editat de Ulrich Kueppers, Christoph Beier
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 mar 2018
The Azores archipelago consists of nine islands that emerge from the Azores Plateau in the Central Northern Atlantic, situated within the triple junction of the American, Eurasian and African lithosphere plates. Subaerial volcanic activity has been well known since the Pliocene and continues today, with several well-documented eruptions since the settlement of the islands in the fifteenth century. The origin of the Azores Plateau has been a matter of scientific debate and thus this book provides the first comprehensive overview of geological features in the Azores from volcanological, geochemical, petrological, paleontological, structural and hydrological perspectives

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The Azores archipelago consists of nine islands that emerge from the Azores Plateau in the Central Northern Atlantic, situated within the triple junction of the American, Eurasian and African lithosphere plates. Subaerial volcanic activity has been well known since the Pliocene and continues today, with several well-documented eruptions since the settlement of the islands in the fifteenth century. The origin of the Azores Plateau has been a matter of scientific debate and thus this book provides the first comprehensive overview of geological features in the Azores from volcanological, geochemical, petrological, paleontological, structural and hydrological perspectives.

Caracteristici

First comprehensive overview of geological features in the Azores from volcanological, geochemical, petrological, paleontological, structural and hydrological perspectives Description of the top three outcrops on each of the nine Azores islands Includes a chapter on "Volcanoes and Society", which is of great use for everyone working in hazard management in a comparable geological setting
