Klappentext zu „Multiscale Seismic Tomography “
This book on multiscale seismic tomography, written by one of the leaders in the field, is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and professionals in Earth and planetary sciences who need to broaden their horizons about seismotectonics, volcanism, and interior structure and dynamics of the Earth and Moon. It describes the state-of-the-art in seismic tomography, with emphasis on the new findings obtained by applying tomographic methods in local, regional, and global scales for understanding the generating mechanism of large and great earthquakes such as the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (Mw 9.0), crustal and upper mantle structure, origin of active arc volcanoes and intraplate volcanoes including hotspots, heterogeneous structure of subduction zones, fate of subducting slabs, origin of mantle plumes, mantle convection, and deep Earth dynamics. The first lunar tomography and its implications for the mechanism of deep moonquakes and lunar evolution are also introduced.

Autoren-Porträt von Dapeng Zhao
Dapeng Zhao is a Professor of Geophysics at Tohoku University, Japan. He obtained a bachelor degree in geoscience from Peking University, and a master and a Ph.D. degree in geophysics from Tohoku University. Then he spent three years at the Caltech Seismological Laboratory as a post-doctoral research fellow. In the last 25 years he has been studying earthquake seismology, seismic tomography, physical volcanology, and deep Earth structure and dynamics. He is ranked to be one of the world top-10 seismologists by Thomson Reuters.

Pressezitat
"This book comes from one of the leading experts of the field, and unfolds his research experiences in earthquake-based, seismic tomography for the study of Earth's (and Moon's) interior in local, regional and global scales. ... All tomographic images are in color, which is very helpful for the reader. ... this book is well written, enjoyable to read, and it is an excellent addition to the bookshelf of every student or scientist interested in Earth's and Lunar interior." (Petros Bogiatzis, Pure and Applied Geophysics, Vol. 174, 2017)Kommentar zu "Multiscale Seismic Tomography"
