书目名称 | Regional Stratigraphy of North America | 编辑 | William J. Frazier,David R. Schwimmer | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | An early reviewer of this book stated that he had difficulty assessing its marketability because it "falls between the cracks" of geological literature. We have designed this book to meet a need of modem geology: namely, a single source providing both detailed and synoptic stratigraphy of the various regions of North America, through geological time. Shortly after beginning work on such a book, we realized why it had not yet been written: it required six years of effort, assimilation of an incredible amount of information, and two years‘ additional work to cut the volume down to publishable size. Further, by the time the final chapter was written, the fIrst few were already out of date. Nevertheless, the book lies in front of you. It is intended to serve several purposes. As a textbook, it will serve the following courses: • Regional stratigraphy • Sedimentary tectonics • Regional tectonics • Advanced historical geology • Survey-level paleontology Obviously, not all portions of the book are relevant to all of the above courses. We assume the reader will retain this book after the particular course is done, and will use it as a reference book. Hopefully, others will obtain the book | 出版日期 | Book 1987 | 关键词 | Continental shelf; Deltas; North America; assimilation; formation; geology; historical geology; paleontolog | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4613-1795-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4613-1795-1 | copyright | Plenum Press, New York 1987 |
