Recent discoveries in marine geology, geochemistry, geophysics, and planetary geology are systematically woven into discussions of traditional topics such as geomorphology, sedimentation, petrology, volcanism, and structural geology. The book describes the methods and techniques employed by geologists in the field, relating geologic subjects to environmental problems.
