Product Description:
In recent years there has been a huge expansion in studies using high resolution sequence stratigraphic techniques. Sequence stratigraphy has evolved from the original concepts of seismic stratigraphy to a scale above seismic resolution. Concepts developed at outcrop are now being successfully applied to sub-surface data sets and are providing a greatly improved understanding of facies geometries and reservoir architecture. This has resulted in the reappraisal of the geology of regions which have been studied for many decades and sequence stratigraphy has developed into a powerful, predictive facies analysis tool for both the hydrocarbon industry and academic research. The papers in this volume illustrate the depth and breadth of current sequence stratigraphic research. Studies are included on many aspects of sequence stratigraphy, from both outcrop and subsurface data with examples from a wide range of countries.

This book contains about 20 papers pertaining to high resolution sequence stratigraphy, a tool used primarily by the oil industry for basin analysis and eustatic prediction. If you don't understand what that means, this book is very likely not for you...start with Coe's excellent "The Sedimentary Record of Sea-Level Change" instead, followed by the classic American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) Memoir 26. I personally found Armentrout's paper on the Plio-Pleistocene Gulf of Mexico biostratigraphy very pertinent; Figure 12, the Chronostratigraphic chart of Plio-Pleistocene depositional and biostratigraphic events is most useful.

The Geology of Stratigraphic Sequences, Second Edition



By Andrew D. Miall, 2011

* Publisher: Springer
* Number Of Pages: 480
* Publication Date: 2010-06-07
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3642050263
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9783642050268

Product Description:
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-forming and subsidence processes, remains as powerful an idea as when it was first formulated. The definition and mapping of sequences has become a standard part of the basin analysis process. 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. Tectonic, climatic and other mechanisms are the generating mechanisms for sequences ranging over a wide range of times scales, from hundreds of millions of years to the high-frequency sequences formed by cyclic processes lasting a few tens of thousands of years.
