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","brand":"Wiley-Iste","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45203477561495,"sku":"9781789451733","price":13886.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781789451733.webp?v=1768573573","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/fission-track-thermochronology-methodology-and-applications-to-geology-9781789451733","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
