Produktinformationen zu „Superplumes: Beyond Plate Tectonics “
This abundantly illustrated book provides a concise overview of our understanding of the entire mantle, its evolution since early differentiation and the consequences of superplumes for earth surface processes. The book's balanced authorship has produced a state-of-the-science report on the emerging concept of superplumes. This presents a new concept to explain catastrophic events on Earth through geologic time.

The four editors and most contributors have been a major group to organize recent critical international workshops, AGU special symposium, and other international workshop including last several Penrose conferences. Sorry I have no times to summarize all. If necessary we will do it.

Rezension zu „Superplumes: Beyond Plate Tectonics “
From the reviews:"The advance in the Earth sciences exhibited in this book became possible owing to the application of up-to-date technologies, primarily of seismic tomography and petrology. ... the book is recommended as the up-to-date theoretical basis for any kind of geological research: tectonic, petrologic, geophysical, mineragenic, etc. ... The authors set a stress on equivocal character of their statements and outline top-priority problems of the Earth sciences to be solved, making the reviewed publication still more valuable." (V. E. Khain and N. I. Filatova, Geotectonics, Vol. 44 (1), 2010)
