978-981-10-3485-5 (ISBN)
This book introduces readers to the rich and varied thermal springs of the Tibetan Plateau, which is steadily rising due to the collision of two continental plates. Readers will discover a wealth of information on boiling springs and hot springs, including their location and elevation, temperature, geological characteristics, and water chemical data, as well as tables on warm and tepid springs. Shedding new light on this vital supplement to hydroelectric resources in remote southwest China, the book will appeal to a broad relationship, from experts researching the Tibetan Plateau to companies specializing in geothermal exploration.
Zhijie Liao is a retired Professor of Peking University since 1999 and a member of International Geothermal Association (IGA). He studied in Geology Department of Peking University for scholar and master degree (1955-1964) and graduated from Geothermal Institute of the University of Auckland of New Zealand. He was a staff to the Geothermal Research Section of Peking University from 1970. Working on geothermal exploration in Tibet, west Sichuan and southwest Yunnan from 1973 to 1989, he served as Head of the section from 1990 to 1999. His research interests include Thermal Springs and Geothermal Energy, Heat Sources and Enhanced Geothermal Systems.
