  • Fluvial Depositional Systems

    by Andrew Miall ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book is intended to complement the author's 1996 book "The geology of fluvial deposits", not to replace it.The book summarizes methods of mapping and interpretation of fluvial depositional systems, with a detailed treatment of the tectonic, climatic and eustatic controls on fluvial depositional processes. It focuses on the preserved, ancient depositional record and emphasizes large-scale ... Read more

  • Stratigraphy: A Modern Synthesis

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The updated textbook is intended to serve as an advanced and detailed treatment of the evolution of the subject of stratigraphy from its disparate beginnings as separate studies of sedimentology, lithostratigraphy, chronostratigraphy, etc., into a modern integrated discipline in which all components are necessary. There is a historical introduction, which now includes information about the ... Read more

  • The Geology of Stratigraphic Sequences

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    It has been more than a decade since the appearance of the First Edition of this book. Much progress has been made, but some controversies remain. The original ideas of Sloss and of Vail (building on the early work of Blackwelder, Grabau, Ulrich, Levorsen and others) that the stratigraphic record could be subdivided into sequences, and that these sequences store essential information about basin ...

  • Principles of Sedimentary Basin Analysis

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Over the past five years there have been many advances in the field of basin analysis. Developments such as the publication of new stratigraphic codes; new research in fission-track dating; evolution of thought regarding the importance of tectonic versus eustatic controls of regional and global cycles; and refinements of geophysically-based, basin-subsidence models have necessitated the ...

  • The Sedimentary Basins of the United States and Canada

    Edited by Andrew Miall ...
    Series Book 5 - Sedimentary Basins of the World
    In recent years there have been rapid strides in our understanding of plate-tectonic processes, many developments in methods of basin analysis, and the accumulation of much new surface and subsurface geological and geophysical data. Projects such as COCORP (in the United States) and Lithoprobe (in Canada) have provided essential insights into the deep crustal structure of the continent. Synthesis ... Read more

  • Stratigraphy: A Modern Synthesis

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    A Comprehensive review of modern stratigraphic methods. The stratigraphic record is the major repository of information about the geological history of Earth, a record stretching back for nearly 4 billion years. Stratigraphic studies fill out our planet’s plate-tectonic history with the details of paleogeography, past climates, and the record of evolution, and stratigraphy is at the heart of the ...

  • Argillaceous Rock Atlas

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    A major reason for the lack of understanding of argillaceous rocks is that the key to understanding their history lies in their microfabric. Argillaceous Rock Atlas addresses this aspect by taking a systematic approach to the analysis of shale fabrics. This approach combines such techniques as scanning electron microscopy, x-radiography and thin-section petrography. Thus the book is amply ... Read more
