It provides basic information on a series of key geological issues, from the structure and composition of the Earth to the large-scale processes that characterize our planet, such as rock alteration and sedimentation, magmatism, geomagnetism, seismicity, plate tectonics, cyclical migration of chemical elements through various Earth reservoirs (Geochemical Cycles), and evolution of the planet from Hadean to present. It intends to reach a wide readership, which is interested in our planet and wish to have a general and comprehensive view of its origin, evolution and activity. Potential readership includes undergraduate and advanced undergraduate students in Geology and other scientific disciplines, and any moderately- to well-educated people interested in the surrounding world and eager to gain a basic knowledge of the Earth and to reach an integrated view of how our planet is working. Includes debated issues of the environmental changes by framing them within the evolution and history of the Earth. 001440199 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 4, 2021). 001440199 650_0 $$aEarth sciences. 001440199 650_0 $$aGeochemistry. 001440199 650_6 $$aSciences de la terre. 001440199 650_6 $$aGĂ©ochimie. 001440199 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001440199 852__ $$bebk 001440199 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-78013-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001440199 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1440199$$pGLOBAL_SET 001440199 980__ $$aBIB 001440199 980__ $$aEBOOK 001440199 982__ $$aEbook 001440199 983__ $$aOnline 001440199 994__ $$a92$$bISE
