Geoenvironmental Mapping: Methods,Theory and Practice
A A Balkema Publishers (Verlag)
978-90-5410-487-2 (ISBN)
This text illustrates the range of environmental geoscience mapping presently carried out around the world. Specialists in several countries have contributed a number of subdisciplinary and thematic topics including volcanic hazards, landslides, dolines, tsunamis, radon potential, medical geology, rainfall erosion, engineering geology, borehole stratigraphy, lake sediment geochemistry, aggregate resources and remote sensing. The collection, analysis and interpretation of data by geologists, geographers and engineers typically involves the presentation of information in map form, which can range from black/white to colour, 2-D to 3-D and paper copy to digital format illustrations. This volume reaffirms the global need for mapping geoscientific data.
Peter Bobrowsky is Head of the Canada Landslide Loss Reduction Program for the Geological Survey of Canada within Natural Resources Canada. His current research interests include Medical Geology in Canada, landslide mapping in British Columbia, slope stability assessment of Machu Picchu, and landslide risk assessment in Italy. . He is a member/fellow of several organizations including: Canadian Geotechnical Society; International Association of Engineering Geology and the Environment; Geological Association of Canada; Geological Society of America; Canadian Quaternary Association; and American Quaternary Association. Peter is author or co-author of over 200 publications.
