Summary Military geosciences are concerned with using the broad scope of the earth sciences for military purposes, ranging from direct support for military operations to a broad spectrum of non-combat military activities and military land management applications. Historically, the focus has been on geology and geography, but other earth science disciplines have become increasingly important as a consequence of technological progress made during the final decades of the 20th century. This volume focuses on historical perspectives, geoscience for military operations, and military environmental stewardship.
