"Earth System History" shows how Earth's ecosystem has developed over time, and how events in the past can help us deal with present and future changes. Key themes and concepts are examined and a range of examples given, from the extinction of the dinosaurs to drilling off the shore of New Jersey, to demonstrate real - world examples of Earth system history in action. Clear and concise, this introduction to historical geology will be an invaluable guide for students of geology and earth science.
