    Organic Radicals summarizes the applications of these materials in several fields, in addition to analyzing challenges, limitations and impacts of materials containing organic radicals on human, plants, water, soil, and animals. Sections cover uses of organic radicals as effective precursors for block molecules building and discuss their effectiveness as precursors of organic radical- containing materials synthesis and their applications in medicine, biology, electronics, environmental sciences, plastics synthesis, polymers building and the several impacts after organic radicals uses. In recent years, the rapid development of organic radical-containing materials has afforded an interesting research area in various applications.

  • Landscape Evolution of Continental-Scale River Systems

    A Case Study of North America’s Pre-Pleistocene Bell River Basin
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 24
    • James W. Sears
    • English
    Landscape Evolution of Continental-Scale River Systems: A Case Study of North America's Pre-Pleistocene Bell River Basin provides a detailed case study and complete analysis of this continental-scale North American paleo-river system. The book uses detrital zircon provenance data to link incision of the Grand Canyon to deposition of its erosional products in a giant drowned delta in the Labrador Sea, in the context of sedimentary source-to-sink processes and Plio-Pleistocene continental drainage changes. The case study describes the tectonic changes in this continental-scale paleo-river system, with global implications, and contrasts this system to other continental-scale river systems around the world.This book is a valuable reference for postgraduate students, academics and researchers in the fields of geology, fluvial geomorphology and other geosciences. Readers will be able to use this detailed case study to better understand the implications for how active tectonics of headwaters regions influence delta deposition in continental-scale river systems around the world.

  • The East African Rift System

    Geodynamics and Natural Resource Potentials
    • 1st Edition
    • Athanas Simon Macheyeki + 1 more
    • English
    The East African Rift System: Geodynamics and Natural Resource Potentials provides state-of-the-art knowledge on the processes pertaining to intra continental rifting, including the principles of rifting, volcanic activities, and microplates. The book also provides knowledge on key natural resources available in the rift system such as geothermal and mineral resources and hydrogeological and hydrocarbon resources. Each aspect discussed in the East African Rift System has its equivalent case study, giving readers interested in each rift of the world a way to connect or link to their rift system of interest, be it a sub-chapter on rifting processes or natural resource models.The book also describes rifting models of selected major rifts (especially continental rifts) of the world, such as the Basin and Range Province, Rio Grande (USA); Rhine Graben (France and Germany); the Tibetan Rohai (Tibet); the Shaanxi Bohai (China); Lake Baikal (Russia); North Island (Australia) and the Aegean Sea Rift (Turkey). Key aspects presented are: rift type, rift age, rift physical dimensions, geothermal gradient models, natural resources and where possible, models of exploration of particular natural resources have been provided.
