This work investigates the time-dependent decay of rock masses exposed in artificial slopes and its impact on geotechnical properties and stability, emphasizing how weathering and environmental processes transform rock from competent to weakened states over engineering timescales. Through field observations and quantification of decay rates, the study explores how factors such as slope orientat…
This classic textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the physical processes that shape the Earth. In this seventh edition, the authors emphasize the unifying theory of plate tectonics as a framework for understanding various geological phenomena, from volcanic activity and mountain building to earthquakes and seafloor spreading. The book is designed to help students understand the log…
The Origin of Continents and Oceans by Alfred Wegener is a foundational work in Earth science that outlines the revolutionary continental drift theory, proposing that Earth’s continents were once assembled into a single supercontinent (Pangaea) and thereafter drifted apart through geological time, explaining similar rock formations, fossil distributions, and paleoclimatic evidence across wide…
