This book presents the findings of recent theoretical and experimental studies of processes in the atmosphere, oceans and lithosphere, discussing their interactions, environmental issues, geology, problems related to human impacts on the environment, and methods of geophysical research. It particularly focuses on the geomechanical aspects of the production of hydrocarbons, including the laborious extraction of oils. Furthermore, it includes contributions on ecological problems of the biosphere.  This book corresponds to the English edition of the "Processes in GeoMedia," a Russian academic journal focused on new theoretical and experimental studies of the Earth's processes.

Enriches the understanding of the geophysical processes taking place in various environments (lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere), including the anthropogenic Suggests new approaches to the development of various sources of energy on the planet, with a particular focus on hydrocarbons Includes the results of theoretical and experimental studies on the development of the geomechanical approach to creating new technologies in the field of hydrocarbon production based on controlling the stress-strain state in the reservoir
