"Geoengineering is the deliberate and large-scale intervention in the Earth's climate system in an attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of global warming. Now that climate emergency is upon us, claims that geoengineering is inevitable are rapidly proliferating. How did we get…

Climate adaptation is a timely yet complex topic that does not fit squarely into any one disciplinary realm. Geospatial Applications for Climate Adaptation Planning presents an overview of the range of strategies, tools, and techniques that must be used to assess myriad overlapp…

If the detrimental impacts of human-induced climate change continue to mount, technologies for geoengineering our climate -- i.e. deliberate modifying of the Earth's climate system at a large scale -- are likely to receive ever greater attention from countries and societies worl…

Geoengineering is assumed to be on the side of industrial agriculture, inequality and ecomodernism, in opposition to degrowth, renewable energy, sustainable agriculture and climate justice. Buck rejects this binary, to ask: what if the people seized the means of climate producti…
Se cree que la geoingeniería está del lado de la agricultura industrial, la desigualdad y el ecomodernismo, en oposición al decrecimiento, las energías renovables, la agricultura sostenible y la justicia climática. Buck rechaza esta dualidad para preguntar: ¿y si la gente se apo…

"This book examines the experimental and theoretical aspects of bifurcation analysis as applied to geomechanics. Coverage includes basic continuum mechanics for dry and fluid unfiltrated porous media, bifurcation and stability analyses applied to layered geological media and gra…
This volume contains selects papers presented during the 2nd International Conference on Environmental Geotechnology, Recycled Waste Materials and Sustainable Engineering, held in the University of Illinois at Chicago. It covers the recent innovations, trends, and concerns, prac…
"The Cam-Clay model is a fundamental constitutive model in soil mechanics, but is only suitable for normally consolidated clay under triaxial compression stress states. The SMP failure criterion is the most reasonable three-dimensional extension of the Mohr-Coulomb failure crite…
