Book Synopsis Sedimentology and Sequence Stratigraphy of Reefs and Carbonate Platforms by : Wolfgang Schlager
Book excerpt: This book starts with a review of sedimentologic principles governing the large scale anatomy of reefs and platforms. It then looks at sequence and systems tracts from a sedimentologic point of view, assess the differences between siliciclastics and carbonates in their response to sea level, evaluates processes that compete with sea level for control on carbonate sequence and finally presents a set of guidelines for application of sequence stratigraphy to reefs and carbonate platforms.
