This book is a comprehensive exploration of the pivotal role that geosciences play in addressing contemporary global challenges and fostering a sustainable future. This book compiles cutting-edge research and a wide range of viewpoints from well-known authorities in the field. It addresses a wide range of subjects, from the application of geophysical techniques for the exploration of minerals, water, and oil along with its comprehending of Earth's movements and processes to using geoscience knowledge to solve crucial environmental, social, and economic problems. The contributors to this volume showcase cutting-edge research techniques, interdisciplinary approaches, and case studies to highlight the vital role geosciences play in comprehending Earth's intricate processes. The book focuses on how important it is to encourage cooperation between scientists, decision-makers, and communities to create long-term solutions that strike a balance between environmental stewardship and societal demands.
Topics covered include but are not limited to geophysical methods and their applications, geological hazards, climate change adaptation, water resource management, energy exploration, and the significance of geosciences in sustainable development. A wide range of readers, including scholars, instructors, decision-makers, and students with an interest in the relationship between sustainability and geosciences, are targeted by the book.
The goal of this book is to create a common commitment to a resilient and sustainable future by encouraging informed decision-making and a deeper understanding of the interdependence between human activity and the processes of the Earth.
