Dissertations & Theses

The marine environment has unique characteristics that distinguish it from other elements of nature.

A Comparison Between Shale Gas In China And Unconventional Fuel Development In The United States: Water, Environmental Protection, And Sustainable Development, Paolo D. Farah, Riccardo Tremolada
