Geophysics and Ocean Waves Studies (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781789853728)

The book "Geophysics and Ocean Waves Studies" presents the collected chapters in two sections named "Geophysics" and "Ocean Waves Studies". The first section, "Geophysics", provides a thorough overview of using different geophysical methods including gravity, self-potential, and EM in exploration. Moreover, it shows the significance of rock physics properties and enhanced oil recovery phases during oil reservoir production. The second section, "Ocean Waves Studies", is intended to provide the reader with a strong description of the latest developments in the physical and numerical description of wind-generated and long waves, including some new features discovered in the last few years. The section is organized with the aim to introduce the reader from offshore to nearshore phenomena including a description of wave dissipation and large-scale phenomena (i.e., storm surges and landslide-induced tsunamis). This book shall be of great interest to students, scientists, geologists, geophysicists, and the investment community.
