The Archean Earth: Tempos and Events, Second Edition is a process-based reference book focusing on the most important events on the early Earth, bringing together experts across Earth Sciences to give a comprehensive overview of the main events of the Archean Eon, as well as of the rates at which important geological and geobiological processes occurred in the same time interval. Over the last two decades, significant progress has been made in our understanding of the processes and events on the early Earth corresponding to advances in the analytical technologies and the continuing efforts of many colleagues that pursue their passion of unravelling the Archean rock record. The book addresses the origin of the Earth, succeeding impact events, and the evolution of the early Earth, covering topics such as Archean tectonics, volcanism, generation of continental crust, and the ongoing debate about the onset of plate tectonics; the evolution and models for Earth's hydrosphere and atmosphere; the Archean atmosphere and chemical sedimentation; and sedimentation through Archean time; among others. Each topic is well-illustrated and includes a closing commentary at the end of each chapter, leading up to the final chapter which blends the major geological events and rates at which important processes occurred into a synthesis, postulating a number of "event clusters" in the Archean when significant changes occurred in many natural systems and geological environments.With updated processes, dating information, case studies, and more, The Archean Earth is a necessary addition to the library of any Earth science academics, students and researchers focused on the early Earth. A comprehensive introduction and overview on the early Earth, highlighting the Archean Eon in the context of the larger time scalesProvides detailed description of the main processes, events, and rates they occurred throughout the ArcheanOffers an assessment of the first habitable environments, the preserved morphological and geochemical traces of early life, and the impact it had on Earth's biogeochemical cycles
