Fractal Analysis and Chaos in Geosciences

This book relates fractals and chaos to a variety of geological and geophysical applications. This book contains eight chapters showing the recent applications of the fractal or mutifractal analysis in geosciences. Two chapters are devoted to applications of the fractal analysis in climatology, two of them to data of cosmic and solar geomagnetic data from observatories. Four chapters of the book contain some applications of the (multi-) fractal analysis in exploration geophysics.
