Synopsis

Stratigraphic analyses of layered deposits are described in this all-inclusive book. Stratigraphy is a geological sub-specialty which is defined as the science of describing the lateral and vertical relationships of distinct rock formations formed through time to comprehend the earth history. These interrelations might be the result of variety of factors including fossil content, magnetic properties, reflection seismology or archaeological deposits. Their study and analysis comprise of various sub-specialties of stratigraphy including lithostratigraphy, biostratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, chemostratigraphy, seismic stratigraphy, chronostratigraphy and archaeological stratigraphy. During the late 1700s, James Hutton said -"the present is the key to the past", a concept further developed by Charles Lyell in the early 1800s. This has evolved as the basis on which stratigraphy has worked ever since. This book lays specific emphasis on applications of geophysical techniques in stratigraphic investigations and analysis of layered basin deposits from distinct geologic settings across continents ranging from Mexico region (North America) through the Alpine belt including Greece, Italy, and Iraq to Russia (Northern Asia).
