This book presents and discusses research in the field of earth science, with a specific focus on the kryosphere and its relationship to the hydrosphere. Explored also are the shield volcanoes of the Siberian flood basalts and the dynamics of lava sheet formation, as well as the planetary conditions at the Hadean and Archean transition and the possible scenarios for the origin of life and oxygen genesis in the early earth atmosphere.

Volume 20 first provides an overview of geodesy throughout the past six decades, providing a short glimpse of emerging technology that is expected to enable rapid advances in many branches of science in the decades to come. Next, the performance of two wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometers possessing rhodium anode have been compared to assess their usefulness in limnological studies, using bottom sediments from Araxá, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The authors reviews the applications of infrared absorption spectroscopy in the fields of condensed matter physics and earth sciences. Infrared absorption spectroscopy is mainly associated with interactions between atoms and vibrational phonons of materials. Additionally, a comparative study held at different drainage systems in Araxá, Minas Gerais, Brazil is presented with the aim of evaluating the performance of The Constant Flux: Constant Sedimentation and Constant Rate of Supply models. Following this, monazite and rutile geochronology and Zr-in-rutile thermometry are used to understand the thrust age and thermochronology of the Araçuaí/Ribeira Orogenic System-São Francisco Craton transition in southeastern Brazil. Recent work on neurotoxin-producing microalgae (dinoflagellates) is presented wherein effects from space weather may display the hormetic dose-response, either through geomagnetic activity or solar X-ray flux. Lastly, the authors provide a soft-computing approach to forecast 30-year-ahead annual rainfall in Tehran, Iran. A time-series of yearly data covering more than one century was used for the design of ensemble projections to understand and quantify the uncertainty associated with intradecadal-to-interdecadal predictability.

This edited volume includes five chapters, each detailing recent advancements in earth science research. Chapter One explores the role of artificial intelligence in issuing more accurate and timely forecasts of summer monsoon rainfall. Chapter Two describes the process of recycling magnets to obtain rare earth elements as well as the potential economic, environmental, and strategic advantages of doing so. Chapter Three highlights the necessity of moving from a conventional linear economy to a circular economy in which the value of electronic waste is maximized through reusing, recycling, remanufacturing, and refurbishing. Chapter Four reviews and discusses the recent trends, developments, and future perspectives of direct and chemical recycling techniques of nonmetal fractions from electronic waste. Lastly, Chapter Five overviews the application of remote sensing and geographic information systems in agriculture and natural resource management.
