The book goes on to analyse environmental security issues, including climate change and water resources, as well as looking at issues from an energy consumption perspective. Significant human security issues are then focussed on, including food safety, pandemic disease control, migration, and the human rights implications of China's overseas investment. 410 0$aChina Policy Series 606 $aHuman security 606 $aHuman security$zChina 606 $aClimatic changes$xPolitical aspects 606 $aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects$zChina 607 $aChina$xForeign relations$y21st century 615 0$aHuman security. 615 0$aHuman security 615 0$aClimatic changes$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects 676 $a327.51 701 $aWu$b Guoguang$0752532 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786592403321 996 $aChina's challenges to human security$93790944 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03628nam 2200469z- 450 001 9910220048103321 005 20210211 035 $a(CKB)3800000000216296 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/47766 035 $a(oapen)doab47766 035 $a(EXLCZ)993800000000216296 100 $a20202102d2017 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aFlow and Transformations in Porous Media 210 $cFrontiers Media SA$d2017 215 $a1 online resource (200 p.) 225 1 $aFrontiers Research Topics 311 08$a2-88945-077-5 330 $aFluid flow in transforming porous rocks, fracture networks, and granular media is a very active interdisciplinary research subject in Physics, Earth Sciences, and Engineering. Examples of natural and engineered processes include hydrocarbon recovery, carbon dioxide geo-sequestration, soil drying and wetting, pollution remediation, soil liquefaction, landslides, dynamics of wet or dry granular media, dynamics of faulting or friction, volcanic eruptions, gas venting in sediments, karst development and speleogenesis, ore deposit development, and radioactive waste disposal. Hydrodynamic flow instabilities and pore scale disorder typically result in complex flow patterning. In transforming media, additional mechanisms come into play: compaction, de-compaction, erosion, segregation, and fracturing lead to changes in permeability over time. Dissolution, precipitation, and chemical reactions between solutes and solids may gradually alter the composition and structure of the solid matrix, either creating or destroying permeable paths for fluid flow. A complex, dynamic feedback thus arises where, on the one hand, the fluid flow affects the characteristics of the porous medium, and on the other hand the changing medium influences the fluid flow. This Research Topic Ebook presents current research illustrating the depth and breadth of ongoing work in the field of flow and transformation in porous media through 15 papers by 72 authors from around the world. The body of work highlights the challenges posed by the vast range of length- and time-scales over which subsurface flow processes occur. Importantly, phenomena from each scale contribute to the larger-scale behavior. The flow of oil and gas in reservoirs, and the flow of groundwater on catchment scale is sensitively linked to pore scale processes and material heterogeneity down to the micrometer scale. The geological features of the same reservoirs and catchments evolved over millions of years, sometimes as a consequence of cracking and fracture growth occurring on the time scale of microseconds. The research presented by the authors of this Research Topic represents a step toward bridging the separation of scales as well as the separation of scientific disciplines so that a more unified picture of flow and transformation in porous media can start to emerge. 610 $adissolution 610 $afluid 610 $afractures 610 $aFriction 610 $agranular media 610 $aPorous media 610 $aprecipitation 610 $arocks 610 $astress 610 $atransport 700 $aPiotr Szymczak$4auth$01315286 702 $aDaniel Koehn$4auth 702 $aRenaud Toussaint$4auth 702 $aEinat Aharonov$4auth 702 $aBjornar Sandnes$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910220048103321 996 $aFlow and Transformations in Porous Media$93032340 997 $aUNINA
