  • Geothermal Energy

    From Theoretical Models to Exploration and Development

    by Ingrid Stober, Kurt Bucher ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The internal heat of the planet Earth represents an inexhaustible reservoir of thermal energy known as Geothermal Energy. The 2nd edition of the book covers the geologic and technical aspects of developing all forms of currently available systems using this "renewable" green energy. The book presents the distribution and transport of thermal energy in the Earth. Geothermal Energy is a base load ... Read more

  • Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks

    by Kurt Bucher ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This new edition of the classic textbook presents a large number of diagrams showing the stability relations among minerals and groups of minerals found in metamorphic rocks. The diagrams help to determine the pressure and temperature conditions under which a given set of metamorphic rocks may have formed. Other parameters that control metamorphic mineral assemblages are also discussed and ... Read more

    From Theoretical Models to Exploration and Development

    by Ingrid Stober, Kurt Bucher ...
    Series series Energy (R0)
    The internal heat of the planet Earth represents an inexhaustible reservoir of thermal energy. This form of energy, known as geothermal energy has been utilized throughout human history in the form of hot water from hot springs. Modern utilization of geothermal energy includes direct use of the heat and its conversion to other forms of energy, mainly electricity. Geothermal energy is a form of ... Read more

  • Water-Rock Interaction

    Edited by Kurt Bucher, I. Stober ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The chemical interaction of water and rock is one of the most fascinating an d multifaceted process in geology. The composition of surface water and groundwater is largely controlled by the reaction of water with rocks and minerals. At elevated temperature, hydrothermal features, hydrothermal 0 re deposits and geothermal fields are associated with chemical effects of water-rock interaction. ... Read more

  • Hydrogeology of Crystalline Rocks

    Edited by Kurt Bucher, I. Stober ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Hydrogeology of Crystalline Rocks deals with deep groundwater in the granite and gneiss basement of the continents. It has become evident during the past years that highly mineralized water is present in an interconnected fracture network of the basement. Thus, the upper part of the crust of the continents can be viewed as an aquifer and investigated with tools common in hydrogeology.This book ... Read more

  • Metasomatism and the Chemical Transformation of Rock

    The Role of Fluids in Terrestrial and Extraterrestrial Processes

    by Daniel Harlov, Hakon Austrheim ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Fluid-aided mass transfer and subsequent mineral re-equilibration are the two defining features of metasomatism and must be present in order for metamorphism to occur. Coupled with igneous and tectonic processes, metasomatism has played a major role in the formation of the Earth’s continental and oceanic crust and lithospheric mantle as well as in their evolution and subsequent stabilization. ...
