Computational methods for studies in Geophysics and Geodynamics are becoming increasingly more sophisticated. This book presents the latest developments in computational environments, grid computing technologies and data management. The organisation of geological data and their ontologies are focused upon with respect to integrating geological data into the state-of-the-art cyberinfrastructure for studies of modern geodynamics. This includes the presentation of fundamental theory, modeling and numerical simulation results, and the latest developments in geodynamics and seismic research, with a number of case studies from China.weiterlesen
