商品描述

The waters and rich resources of the South China Sea are claimed by seven different countries, and it is estimated that approximately 40% of the world's trade moves through the area. Marine Geology and Geotechnology of the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait examines the physiology, geology, and potential development of this important portion of the western Pacific Ocean's largest marginal sea. The book covers multiple oceanographic topics, and further discusses topography, sedimentation, wave generation, and hazards such as earthquakes, storm surges, and tsunamis. In addition, it explains the engineering issues and design considerations involved regarding a potential Taiwan Strait Crossing, as well as the development of near-shore communities.

Features:

  • Examines seabed material, such as clays, calcareous, siliceous, and various other organic sediments

  • Presents different potential routing strategies for sea crossings using tunnels, bridges, or a combination of both

  • Provides bridge design recommendations considering aesthetics, seismic and wind issues, potential vessel collisions, and more

  • Includes a historical timeline and useful maps regarding the political complexity of the area and the various territorial claims made by different nations 

 

Marine Geology and Geotechnology of the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait serves as a valuable resource for geotechnical engineers, marine geologists, civil engineers, and professionals concerned with the region.

南海的水域和豐富資源被七個不同國家聲稱,估計約有40%的全球貿易通過該地區。《南海及台灣海峽的海洋地質與地質技術》探討了這片西太平洋最大邊緣海域的重要生理、地質及潛在發展。該書涵蓋多個海洋學主題,進一步討論了地形、沉積、波浪生成以及地震、風暴潮和海嘯等危害。此外,還解釋了有關潛在的台灣海峽跨越工程的工程問題和設計考量,以及近岸社區的發展。

特色:
- 考察海床材料,如粘土、鈣質、矽質及各種其他有機沉積物
- 提出使用隧道、橋樑或兩者結合的不同潛在海上跨越路徑策略
- 提供橋樑設計建議,考慮美學、地震和風力問題、潛在船隻碰撞等
- 包含有關該地區政治複雜性及不同國家所提出的各種領土聲索的歷史時間線和有用地圖

《南海及台灣海峽的海洋地質與地質技術》是地質工程師、海洋地質學家、土木工程師及關心該地區的專業人士的重要資源。
