In the opening chapter Volume 19 uses obtained kinetic data to
estimate the growth rate of the basic copper carbonates with the
participation of complexing agents, thus demonstrating that natural
organic complexing agents can play an important role in the
formation of copper carbonate minerals. The next section deals with
how the presence of organic matter, which is much softer than the
inorganic matrix, affects gas production in shale reservoirs. A
comprehensive study of the characteristics of organic matter can
improve our understanding of organic-rich shale reservoirs.
Additionally, remote-sensing for oil spills is reviewed. The
technical aspects of sensors are summarised and the benefits and
limitations of each sensor are given. In the last few decades, as
the number of reclamation projects has increased, the diversity of
the landscape has also increased, as has the proportion of
ecologically valuable elements (such as forests, meadows and water
bodies) which can approximate the original landscape with a greater
degree of ecological stability. More accurate quantification of the
extent of mining activities and reclamation projects is important
for exploration of environmental impacts on the ecosystem. In order
to address coastal degradation, the Atlantic Andalusian Coastal
District has performed beach and dune restoration planning,
described by the authors as an example of sustainable coastal
management. In the penultimate chapter, the method of the
gravitational mass spectroscopy is used to investigate the
inhomogeneity of the density in the surface layers of the Earth's
crust under the European continent in the area of massive deposits
of hard coal. The final chapter describes the petrography,
whole-rock major and trace-element geochemistry of lamprophyre dyke
reported in southern India.
