A comprehensive, integrative approach to tectonics and geodynamics for students and researchers Over the past half century, major achievements have been made in the study of Earth’s surface structure and kinematics and the internal dynamics of the lithosphere and mantle. Many of these advances have relied on the integration of data and models from plate tectonics and geodynamics, yet traditional divisions persist in how these two disciplines are taught and practiced.

Produktbeschreibung
A comprehensive, integrative approach to tectonics and geodynamics for students and researchers Over the past half century, major achievements have been made in the study of Earth’s surface structure and kinematics and the internal dynamics of the lithosphere and mantle. Many of these advances have relied on the integration of data and models from plate tectonics and geodynamics, yet traditional divisions persist in how these two disciplines are taught and practiced. This textbook bridges the gap, connecting geophysical and geological approaches to understand the physical processes that shape our planet’s evolution, from mantle convection to orogeny and earthquakes. An innovative approach to the solid Earth system, Tectonic Geodynamics provides a basis to explore the fundamental connections between the planet’s deep interior dynamics and the surface. * The first textbook to integrate tectonics, structural geology, geodynamics, geodesy, and seismology in a single volume * Offers a physics-focused guide for understanding how the solid Earth system operates * Uses a “no prerequisites” approach supported by an extensive appendix that includes a calculus and linear algebra primer and coverage of key topics such as coordinate systems and spectral analysis * Includes a wealth of exercises and end-of-chapter review questions * An ideal textbook for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in geology, geophysics, and related fields such as physics and engineering * Invaluable for self-study and as a self-contained resource for researchers * Supporting materials provided for instructors, including an instruction guide, full-color illustration package, and sample syllabi
