Descriptions

The geosciences benefit from advances in methods of analysis and new technologies. This volume presents state-of-the-art approaches to key issues, to the benefit of all those interested in the subject. It opens with a multiscale analysis of geophysical signals using the technique of 2D continuous wavelet transform, while another chapter gives an overview of 1D wavelet transform within the geosciences. The remaining contributions discuss various aspects of fractals. One offers a fractal analysis of the INTERMAGNET observatories' data, and another uses well-logs' data and fractal analysis to advance suitable mathematical and statistical techniques for geophysical studies. Finally, the book provides a contribution on the uses of fractal analysis and chaos in exploration geophysics.
