"Principles of Sedimentology and Stratigraphy" by Sam BoggsРеаrsоn Рrеntice Наll | 2006 | ISBN: 0131547283 9780131547285 | 676 pages | PDF/djvu | 45/21 MB 

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 include the origin and transport of sedimentary materials; physical properties of sedimentary rocks; composition, classification and diagenesis of sedimentary rocks and principles of stratigraphy and basin analysis. For individuals interested in one text providing comprehensive coverage of both sedimentology and stratigraphy.Contents Preface Introduction PART I Origin and Transport of Sedimentary Materials 1.1 INTRODUCTION 1.2 SUBAERI ALWEATHERING PROCESSES  1.3 SUBMARINE WEATHERING PROCESSES AND PRODUCTS  1.4 SO ILS 1.5 CONCLUDING REMARKS  2 Transport and Deposition ofSiliciclastic Sediment 2.1 INTRODUCTION 2.2 FUNDAMENTA LS OF FLUID FLOW 2.3 PARTICLE TRANSPORT BY FLUIDS 2.4 PARTICLE TRANSPORT BY SEDIMENT GRAVI TY FLOWSPART II Physical Properties of Sedimentary Rocks 3.1 INTRODUCTION 3.2 GRAIN SIZE  3.3 PARTICLE SHAPE 3.4 FABRIC 4 Sedimentary Structures 4.1 INTRODUCTION  4.2 KINDS OF PRIMARY SEDIMENTARY STRUCTURES  4.3 STRATIFICATION AND BEDFORMS 4.4 BEDDING-P LANE MARKINGS 4.5 OTHER STRUCTURES 4.6 PALEOCURRENT ANALYSIS FROM SEDIMENTARY STRUCTURES PART III Composition, Classification, and Diagenesis of Sedimentary Rocks 5.1 INTRODUCTION  5.2 SANDSTONES  5.3 CONGLOMERATES  5.4 SHALES (MUDROCKS) 5.5 DIAGENESIS OF SILICICLASTIC SEDIMENTARY ROCKS 5.6 PROVENANCE SI GNIFICANCE OF MINERAL COMPOSITION  6 Carbonate Sedimentary Rocks 6.1 INTRODUCTION 6.2 CHEMISTRY AND MINERALOGY 6.3 LIMESTONE TEXTURES6.4 DOLOMITE TEXTURES 6.5 STRUCTURES IN CARBONATE ROCKS 6.6 CLASSIFICATION OF CARBONATE ROCKS  6.7 ORIGIN OF CARBONATE ROCKS 6.8 DIAGENESIS  7 Other Chemical/Biochemical and Carbonaceous Sedimentary Rocks 7.1 INT RODUCTION 7.2 EVAPORITES 7.3 SILICEOUS SEDIMENTARY ROCKS (CHERTS) 7.4 IRON-BEARING SEDIMENTARY ROCKS 7.5 SEDIMENTARY PHOSPHORITES7.6 CARBONACEOUS SEDIMENTARY ROCKS: COAL, OIL SHALE, BITUMENS  PART IV Depositional Environments 8 Continental (Terrestrial) Environments 8.1 INTRODUCTION  8.2 FLUVIAL SYSTEMS 8.3 EOLIAN DESERT SYSTEMS8.4 LACUSTRINE SYSTEMS8.5 GLACIAL SYSTEMS9 Marginal-Marine Environments 9.1 INTRODUCTION 9.2 DELTAIC SYSTEMS 9.3 BEACH AND BARRlER ISLAND SYSTEMS 9.4 ESTUARINE SYSTEMS 9.5 LAGOONAL SY STEMS 9.6 TIDAL-FLAT SYSTEMS 10 Siliciclastic Marine Environments 10.1 INTRODUCTION 10.2 THE SHELF ENVIRONMENT  10.3 THE OCEANIC (DEEP-WATER) ENVIRONMENT 11 Carbonate and Evaporite Environments 11.1 INTRODUCTION 11.2 CARBONATE SHELF (NONREEF ) ENVIRONMEN TS 11.3 SLOPE/B ASIN CARBONATES 11.4 ORGANIC REEF ENVIRONMENTS 11.5 MIXED CARBONATE-SILICICLASTIC SYSTEMS 388 11.6 EVAPORITE ENVIRONMENTS PART V Stratigraphy and Basin Analysis 12 Lithostratigraphy 12.1 INTRODUCTION 12.2 TYPES OF LITHOSTRATIGRAPHIC UNITS 12.3 STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS 12.4 VERTICAL AND LATERAL SUCCESSIONS OF STRATA 12.5 NOMENCLATURE AND CLASSIFICATION OF LITHOSTRATIGRAPHIC UNITS12.6 CORRELATION OF LITHOSTRATIGRAPHIC UNITS13 Seismic, Sequence, and Magnetic Stratigraphy 13.1 INTRODUCTION 13.2 SEISMIC STRATIGRAPHY 13.3 SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY 13.4 MAGNETOSTRATIGRAPHY  14 Biostratigraphy 14.1 INTRODUCTION 14.2 FOSSILS AS A BASIS FOR STRATIGRAPHIC SUBDIVISION 14.3 BIOSTRATIGRAPHIC UNITS 14.4 THE BASIS FOR BIOSTRATIGRAPHIC ZONATION: CHANGES IN ORGANISMS THROUGH TIME 14.5 DISTRIBUTION OF ORGANISMS IN SPACE: PA LEOBIOGEOGRAPHY 14.6 COMBINED EFFECTS OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF ORGANISMS IN TIME AND SPACE  14.7 BIOCORRELATION15 Chronostratigraphy and Geologic Time 15.1 INTRODUCTION 15.2 GEOLOGIC TIME UNITS 15.3 THE GEOLOGIC TIME SC ALE 15.4 CHRONOCORRELATION 16 Basin Analysis, Tectonics, and Sedimentation 16.1 INTRODUCTION 16.2 MECHANISMS OF BASIN FORMATION (SUBSIDENCE) 16.3 PLATE TECTONICS AND BASINS 16.4 KINDS OF SEDIMENTARY BASINS16.5 SEDIMENTARY BASIN FILL 16.6 TECHNIQUES OF BASIN ANALYSIS16.7 APPLICATIONS OF BASIN ANALYSIS  Appendices Appendix A Form and Roundness ofSedimentary Particles Appendix 8 Paleothermometry Appendix C North American Stratigraphic Code Appendix D Nomenclature of Global and North American Chronostratigraphic Units Appendix E Web Sites Pertaining to Sedimentology and Stratigraphy Bibliography  Index
