Author: Jermaine A. Gardner
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1524648027
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
Saturn vs Mars is set in the year 2118, and all of the planets in our solar system are populated except earth. In that same year, the aliens who lived on Earth made an emphatic exodus known as The Second Great Escape. The aliens, who all have Aspergers syndrome, have setup a new thriving system based on their vision of an existence without ridicule and input from earths residents. They have established a system of government, economy, art, science, and education. There is lots of talent, imagination, and in-your-face truth. Over a century later, each of the characters, from the heroic Alt Tab to the villainous Dr. Demann, grapple with how this one event plays a role in how their lives have turned out and how they see everyone and everything around them.

Mantle Convection and Surface Expressions
Author: Hauke Marquardt
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119528615
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
A multidisciplinary perspective on the dynamic processes occurring in Earth's mantle The convective motion of material in Earth's mantle, powered by heat from the deep interior of our planet, drives plate tectonics at the surface, generating earthquakes and volcanic activity. It shapes our familiar surface landscapes, and also stabilizes the oceans and atmosphere on geologic timescales. Mantle Convection and Surface Expressions brings together perspectives from observational geophysics, numerical modelling, geochemistry, and mineral physics to build a holistic picture of the deep Earth. It explores the dynamic processes occurring in the mantle as well as the associated heat and material cycles. Volume highlights include: Perspectives from different scientific disciplines with an emphasis on exploring synergies Current state of the mantle, its physical properties, compositional structure, and dynamic evolution Transport of heat and material through the mantle as constrained by geophysical observations, geochemical data and geodynamic model predictions Surface expressions of mantle dynamics and its control on planetary evolution and habitability The American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals.
