Time-temperature constraints are vital to quantify and describe a large variety of geological processes, such as relief building, erosion and sedimentation or the maturation of organic matter in sedimentary basins.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter a brief history covering the discovery of fission tracks to their first applications in geochronology, \u003ci\u003eFission-track Thermochronology\u003c\/i\u003e presents a complete description of not only the fission-track, but also the (U Th Sm)\/He thermochronology approaches, both on basement rocks and on sediments. Firstly, the physical and chemical processes that underlie these techniques are addressed, and the analytical methods are described in detail. A particular focus is placed on the latest developments, such as the use of laser-ablation ICP-MS, and a whole chapter is dedicated to statistical modeling of the data.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFinally, numerous examples of applications to geological questions will provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of the possibilities of low temperature thermochronology in solving geological and geomorphological questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marc Jolivet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789451736\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789451733\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley-Iste\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/29\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Marc Jolivet","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48217553993983,"sku":"9781789451733","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8e4109be-0f5b-4df8-a5d3-032a66a799bd.jpg?v=1771997964","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fission-track-thermochronology-marc-jolivet-9781789451733","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
