Principles of sedimentary basin analysis / Принципы анализа осадочных бассейнов

Basin analysis is a process that requires the collection and integration of a wide variety of different types of data. Many review articles and books are available that deal with some of the individual specialized fields that together constitute basin analysis, such as stratigraphic methods, facies analysis, geophysical methods, sedimentation and tectonics, and sequence stratigraphy; but this is one of the few books that has attempted, now through three editions, to show how these different types of data and the varying types of analytical methodology used in basin analysis need to be brought together to tackle specific basin-analysis problems. The emphasis in this book continues to be on the traditional geological skills of observation, description and synthesis.  <...>
