This wide-ranging and up-to-date review of the nature, causes, and consequences of fluid flow in oceanic crust analyzes much recent research. The accompanying CD includes a full and easily navigable set of diagrams and captions, references, and photos of research vessels, submersibles, and tools used in marine hydrologic studies.
- Useful for students in providing an in-depth review and a comprehensive bibliography
- Valuable for classroom use, particularly by way of the CD which includes access to figures and the 'tour' of photos of the 'tools of the trade' for marine hydrogeologists
Reviews & endorsements
"Suffice to say, the book contains just about everything you wanted to know (or wanted to know that you didn't know) about how the ocean crust gets old."
