Once Earth scientists can accurately decipher the history, internal dynamics, and evolution of the continental lithosphere, we will have a clearer understanding of how the crust formed, how plate tectonics began, and how our continents became habitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVolume highlights:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTheories and observations of the current state of tectonic boundaries and discontinuities\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eContributions on field observations, laboratory experiments, and geodynamic predictions from leading experts in the field\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMantle fabrics in response to various mantle deformation processes\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eInsights on fluid distribution using geophysical observations, and thermal and viscosity constraints from dynamic modelling\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDiscontinuities associated with lithosphere and lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAn integrated study of the evolving physical and chemical processes associated with lithosphere-asthenosphere interaction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten for academic and research geoscientists, particularly in the field of tectonophysics, geophysics, geodynamics, seismology, structural geology, environmental geology, and geoengineering, \u003ci\u003eLithospheric Discontinuities\u003c\/i\u003e is a valuable resource that sheds light on the origin and evolution of plate interaction processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854642335980,"sku":"9781119249719","price":411.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/d8d62e30082d08bc4b58dd1507b42799.jpg?v=1759266957","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/lithospheric-discontinuities-9781119249719","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
