{"product_id":"bombarded-britain-richard-stratford-9781860943560","title":"Bombarded Britain: A Search for British Impact Structures","description":"This book describes a search for geological evidence of meteorite impact structures in Britain. The statistics of impact structures indicate that Britain should have Phanerozoic impact structures up to tens of kilometres in diameter. A constant theme is the importance of atmospheric break-up of small asteroids and comets. These fragmenting bodies produce anomalously shallow craters with low rims and central peaks; three British structures of this type are identified.Analysis of fireball statistics implies that damaging fireball explosions occur over the British Isles on a time-scale of decades. On a time-scale of millennia, however, more damage is done by Atlantic impact tsunami.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Stratford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 186094356X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781860943560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Imperial College Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.02h x 6.54w x 0.76d","brand":"Richard Stratford","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088927568127,"sku":"9781860943560","price":114.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_64129048-7c4f-48e8-aaa0-4edceec06ab0.jpg?v=1769107323","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bombarded-britain-richard-stratford-9781860943560","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
