關於這本電子書
""Desert Glass"" explores the captivating science behind natural glass formations in deserts. It examines the extreme heat events, such as massive meteorite impacts or intense volcanic activity, that can transform sand into glass, a process known as vitrification. These glass deposits provide valuable clues about past environmental cataclysms. For example, the book details how the chemical composition of desert glass can reveal information about the temperature and conditions under which it formed, offering insights into ancient climates and geological events.
The book progresses systematically, starting with the fundamental properties of glass and its formation under intense heat. It then surveys known desert glass locations worldwide, detailing the geological context of each site. By integrating scientific analysis with geographical exploration and historical context, ""Desert Glass"" presents a comprehensive understanding of these geological wonders.
This approach makes the book a valuable resource for anyone interested in Earth sciences, geography, and environmental science.
