Seabed Fluid Flow : The Impact on Geology, Biology and the Marine Environment Paperback / softback
by Alan Judd, Martin (Statoil, Norway) Hovland
Paperback / softback
- Information
Description
Seabed fluid flow involves the flow of gases and liquids through the seabed.
Such fluids have been found to leak through the seabed into the marine environment in seas and oceans around the world - from the coasts to deep ocean trenches.
This geological phenomenon has widespread implications for the sub-seabed, seabed, and marine environments.
Seabed fluid flow affects seabed morphology, mineralization, and benthic ecology.
Natural fluid emissions also have a significant impact on the composition of the oceans and atmosphere; and gas hydrates and hydrothermal minerals are potential future resources.
This book describes seabed fluid flow features and processes, and demonstrates their importance to human activities and natural environments.
It is targeted at research scientists and professionals with interests in the marine environment.
Colour versions of many of the illustrations, and additional material - most notably feature location maps - can be found at www.cambridge.org/9780521819503.
