It demonstrates that seemingly purposeful or goal-oriented phenomena in Earth's processes actually emerge from selection dynamics. While many think of selection in the context of biological evolution, it extends to abiotic processes crucial in understanding Earth's function and evolution. The author delineates four forms of geophysical selection: gradient, resistance, network, and thermodynamic. These selections manifest in various natural systems, from fluid flows shaping landscapes to the efficient transport of mass and energy. The book acknowledges the interplay of geophysical and ecological processes, employing them as pedagogical tools. Structured with an introduction to abiotic selection and its context, the book delves into the application of key principles?such as thermodynamics and flow dynamics?to Earth surface systems. Each subsequent chapter examines one of the four types of selection, featuring diverse real-world examples from climate dynamics to oceanography. Geared toward researchers, graduate students, and practitioners in fields such as geophysics, geology, geography, hydrology, and ecosystem sciences, it also appeals to those interested in evolutionary thinking beyond traditional life sciences. 410 0$aGeophysics and Environmental Physics,$x2948-2194 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aStochastic models 606 $aStatistics 606 $aEcology 606 $aGeology 606 $aEarth System Sciences 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aStochastic Modelling in Statistics 606 $aStatistics in Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Chemistry and Earth Sciences 606 $aTheoretical and Statistical Ecology 606 $aGeology 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 0$aGeophysics. 615 0$aStochastic models. 615 0$aStatistics. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aGeology. 615 14$aEarth System Sciences. 615 24$aGeophysics. 615 24$aStochastic Modelling in Statistics. 615 24$aStatistics in Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Chemistry and Earth Sciences. 615 24$aTheoretical and Statistical Ecology. 615 24$aGeology. 676 $a550 676 $a910.02 700 $aPhillips$b Jonathan D$01830227 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011650003321 996 $aAbiotic Selection in Earth Surface Systems$94400528 997 $aUNINA
