Description:
During the past three decades, our knowledge of the seismic properties of minerals, rocks and ores has grown enormously, spurred by the determination of the structures and evolution of the Earth using innovative seismologic technologies (e.g., reflection profiling, tomography, shear-wave splitting), the mitigation of geological hazards (e.g., earthquakes and volcanic activity), and the exploration of mineral deposits, water and energy resources. This handbook provides engineers and scientists with a convenient, compact, authoritative, up-to-date and systematic compilation of the measured seismic properties of Earth materials. It contains almost all the reliable data of P and S wave velocities and anisotropy of various rocks, minerals and ores as functions of pressure and temperature, available in the literature published in English and French. It is much more comprehensive than any previous compilations.

AUTHORS

Shaocheng Ji, professor of Earth Sciences in the Department of Civil, Geological and Mining Engineering, École Polytechnique de Montréal (Canada), obtained his B.Sc. from Nanjing University (China), and Ph.D. from the Université de Montpellier II (France). He has been involved in research and teaching in petrophysics, structural geology and geophysics for over 15 years. He is the author and co-author of over 60 research papers.

Qin Wang, a Ph.D. student at École Polytechnique de Montréal, received her B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees from Nanjing University. She is working on the seismic properties of ultrahigh pressure metamorphic rocks from Sulu, China.

Bin Xia, professor and director of the Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China. He obtained his M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from Nanjing University. His research interests are mainly in the structural geology of Tibetan Plateau and South China Sea.
