Our paradoxical fascination with them stems from their majestic beauty and powerful, if sometimes deadly, destructiveness. Notwithstanding the tremendous advances in volcanology since ancient times, some of the mystery surrounding volcanic eruptions remains today. The Encyclopedia of Volcanoes summarizes our present knowledge of volcanoes. Through its thematic organization around the melting of the earth, it provides a comprehensive source of information on the multidisciplinary influences of volcanic eruptions--both the destructive as well as the beneficial aspects. The majority of the chapters focus on the geoscience-related aspects of volcanism (radioactive heat source, melting rock, ascent of magma, surface phenomena associated with exiting magma, extraterrestrial volcanism, etc.). 000733468 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000733468 650_0 $$aVolcanoes$$vEncyclopedias. 000733468 650_0 $$aVolcanism$$vEncyclopedias. 000733468 650_0 $$aVolcanic eruptions. 000733468 650_0 $$aVolcanic hazard analysis. 000733468 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000733468 7001_ $$aSigurdsson, Haraldur,$$eeditor. 000733468 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aEncyclopedia of volcanoes.$$bSecond edition.$$dLondon, UK ; San Diego, CA : Elsevier/Academic Press, 2015$$z9780123859389$$w(DLC) 2015933059$$w(OCoLC)907444479 000733468 85280 $$bebk$$hCredo Reference 000733468 85640 $$3Credo Reference$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.credoreference.com/content/title/estvolcano?institutionId=3155$$zOnline access 000733468 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:733468$$pGLOBAL_SET 000733468 980__ $$aEBOOK 000733468 980__ $$aBIB 000733468 982__ $$aEbook 000733468 983__ $$aOnline
