正如作者在《环境磁学:环境磁学的原理和应用》一书的序言中所说的那样,这是一门相当新的科学。它从不同的起点开始,涉及跨学科方法来研究年轻的沉积物记录,以梳理出过去但在地质上最近的全球变化的历史。今天,这个主题已经发展成为一个重要的、充满活力的领域,涵盖了地球科学的许多方面和更远的领域。评论这本书真的很高兴,不仅因为Subir Banerjee做了如此出色的工作,正如他所说的那样,为读者提供了一份欢迎读者了解这本书的内容和它的特殊性格的邀请函。它确实具有特殊的性质,由两位非常有成就的学者撰写,他们花了相当多的研究精力将地质材料的磁性记录与地球过程联系起来。关于这一主题的第一本书,R.Thompson和F.Oldfield于1986年出版,为社区提供了几个面向使用岩石和古地磁方法进行环境研究的应用程序的汇编。埃文斯和海勒的音量大不相同。
As the authors state in their preface to Environmental Magnetism: Principles and Applications of Enviromagnetics, this is a quite new science. It began from disparate beginnings involving interdisciplinary approaches to studying young sediment records to tease out a history of past but geologically recent global change. Today the subject has blossomed into an important, vibrant field that envelops many aspects of the geosciences and beyond. It is a true delight to review this book, and not just because Subir Banerjee has done such an outstanding job of providing in the forward, as he states, “a welcoming invitation for the reader to the contents of the book and its special character.” It is indeed of special character, written by two highly accomplished scholars who have devoted a considerable amount of their research attention to linking the magnetic record of geologic materials to Earth processes. The first book on this subject, Environmental Magnetism by R.Thompson and F. Oldfield,was published in 1986 and provided the community with a compilation of several applications oriented toward environmental studies using rock and paleomagnetic approaches. Evans and Heller's volume is quite different.
