Produktinformationen zu „Speleothem Science (PDF)“
Speleothems (mineral deposits that formed in caves) are currently
giving us some of the most exciting insights into environments and
climates during the Pleistocene ice ages and the subsequent
Holocene rise of civilizations. The book applies system science to
Quaternary environments in a new and rigorous way and gives
holistic explanations the relations between the properties of
speleothems and the climatic and cave setting in which they are
found. It is designed as the ideal companion to someone
embarking on speleothem research and, since the underlying science
is very broad, it will also be invaluable to a wide variety of
others. Students and professional scientists interested in
carbonate rocks, karst hydrogeology, climatology, aqueous
geochemistry, carbonate geochemistry and the calibration of
climatic proxies will find up-to-date reviews of these topics
here. The book will also be valuable to Quaternary scientists
who, up to now, have lacked a thorough overview of these important
archives.

Autoren-Porträt von Ian J. Fairchild, Andy Baker
Ian Fairchild was originally a geologist, then morespecifically a sedimentologist, morphing into a physical geographer
with leanings to environmental chemistry, before putting more
geology back in the mix. Hence, he is now Professor of
Geosystems at the University of Birmingham, UK, researching both on
modern environments and interpreting those in deep time, with
carbonates, waters and climates as linking themes.
Andy Baker was trained as a physical geographer, and
worked at the interface of geology, physical geography, and
environmental engineering. He is currently a Professor at
the University of New South Wales and a chief investigator in
Australia's National Centre for Groundwater Research and
Training.
