Reseña del libro "geokinematics"

this multifaceted study explores new directions for plate tectonic research, especially as a guide for future geodynamic modelling of the earth. in particular, it equips readers with a plate-tectonic toolbox (with derivations and ansi-c code) for applications and reconstruction analysis, including new continuous calculation methods. it shows how to apply these tools to late mesozoic and cenozoic kinematics, with a focus on hotspot reference frames, and for empirical analysis of continental stress histories, including fractured hydrocarbon reservoirs. supported by solid arguments and data, the book integrates theoretical developments of expanded plate kinematic theory and an ensemble of critical observations into a grand model, with the new concept of mesoplates playing a key role. written by an accomplished tectonics researcher and software developer, this graduate- and research-level monograph will interest academics as well as applied geoscientists, e.g. petroleum geologists.
