Editions Technip, France, 2002, p. 642 As this book is intended for engineering students in geology and geophysics, drillers, producers, and economists, it voluntarily leaves out certain aspects of geology such as mineralogy, the geology of crystalline basements, and metamorphism. It essentially deals with sedimentary geology and was designed as a teaching support with an emphasis on the basics and language used in the profession. It is based on...

4 edition, Pearson Prentice Hall, 2006, 662 pages A concise treatment of the fundamental principles of sedimentology and stratigraphy, featuring the important physical, chemical, biological and stratigraphic characteristics of sedimentary rocks. Emphasized are the ways in which the study of sedimentary rocks is used to interpret depositional environments, changes in ancient sea level, and other intriguing aspects of Earth history. Topics includ...

Elsevier, 2006, p. 375 Sequence stratigraphy analyzes the sedimentary response to changes in base level, and the depositional trends that emerge from the interplay of accommodation (space available for sediments to fill) and sedimentation. Sequence stratigraphy has tremendous potential to decipher the Earth’s geological record of local to global changes, and to improve the predictive aspect of economic exploration and production. For these reaso...

Springer-Verlag, 1992, p. 628 This book addresses both qualitative and quantitative aspects of basin analysis, including topics such as various flux rates, diagenesis, and fluid flow, in the context of plate tectonics and sedimentary geology. Tectonic subsidence and uplift are prerequisites for basin formation and terrigenous sediment supply, but sedimentary processes in a basin are governed by other factors, including water circulation and recy...

Geological Society of London, 2010, 383 pages, ISBN: 1862390630. An increasing number of studies in recent years have demonstrated that significant progradation of shallow marine systems occurs under conditions of base-level fall. These new data are forcing many sedimentary geologists to critically re-evaluate many aspects of sequence stratigraphy relating to erosion and deposition during base-level (lake- or relative sea-level) fall, and the i...

Springer, 2010, 2nd Edition. - p.522 The main purpose of this book remains the same as it was for the first edition, that is, to situate sequences within the broader context of geological processes, and to answer the question: why do sequences form? Geoscientists might thereby be better equipped to extract the maximum information from the record of sequences in a given basin or region. Central to the concept of the sequence is the deductive mode...

Springer; 2003, Pages: 821 More than 75% of the earth's land surface is covered by sediments and sedimentary rocks. Near-surface sediments constitute the reservoirs for almost all groundwater, and are vitally important substrates for soils, wetlands, and shallow marine environments, while more deeply buried sediments provide most of the world's reserves of fossil fuels. The study and understanding of sediments and sedimentary rocks is therefor...

Academic Press, 2 edition, 2000, 523 Pages, ISBN: 0126363757. There are three types of rock-igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary. Sedimentary rocks form from the weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition of older rocks. Applied Sedimentology describes the formation, transportation and deposition of sediment, and the post-depositional processes that change soft sediment into sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rocks include sandstones, limest...
