Carbonate sequence stratigraphy : recent developments and applications

Derived from the 1991 Research Symposium on Carbonate Sequence Stratigraphy, the authors have brought together in one volume a representative sampling of pivotal research in this important topic. Its three sections describe (1) sequence concepts and sedimentologic principles, (2) seismic sequence case studies involving seismic and outcrop interpretations, and (3) examples of high-frequency, meter-scale cycle deposition and stacking patterns. American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) Founded in 1917, AAPG is the world's largest professional geological society. AAPG is a pillar of the world-wide scientific community. Our books foster timely scientific research, advance the science of geology and promote the most efficient methods of energy exploration & processing technology and practices available today. Some of the areas we publish in include: Well Log Analysis Geological Modeling Carbonate Petrology Seismic Imaging Reservoir Characterization Regional Petroleum Analysis Tectonics and Sedimentation Stratigraphy
