Book Synopsis Recent Advances in Models of Siliciclastic Shallow-marine Stratigraphy by : Gary J. Hampson
Download or read book Recent Advances in Models of Siliciclastic Shallow-marine Stratigraphy written by Gary J. Hampson and published by SEPM Soc for Sed Geology. This book was released on 2008 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siliciclastic shallow-marine deposits record the interface between land and sea, and its response to a variety of forcing mechanisms: physical process regime, the internal dynamics of coastal and shelfal depositional systems, relative sea level, sediment flux, tectonic setting, and climate. These deposits have long been the subject of conceptual stratigraphic models that seek to explain the interplay between these various forcing mechanisms, and their preservation in the stratigraphic record. This volume arose from an SEPM research conference on shoreline-shelf stratigraphy that was held in Grand Junction, Colorado, on August 24-28, 2004. The aim of the resulting volume is to highlight the development over the last 15 years of the stratigraphic concepts and models that are used to interpret siliciclastic marginal-marine, shallow-marine, and shelf deposits.

Book Synopsis Trace Fossils as Indicators of Sedimentary Environments by : Dirk Knaust
Download or read book Trace Fossils as Indicators of Sedimentary Environments written by Dirk Knaust and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2012-12-31 with total page 955 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integration of ichnological information into sedimentological models, and vice versa, is one of the main means by which we can improve our understanding of ancient depositional environments. Mainly intended for sedimentologists, this book aims to make ichnological methods as part of facies interpretation more popular, providing an analytical review of the ichnology of all major depositional environments and the use of ichnology in biostratigraphic and sequence stratigraphic analysis. It starts with an introduction to the historical aspect of ichnology, introducing common concepts and methods, and then continues with parts treating the main depositional systems from continental, shallow-marine and deep-marine siliciclastics, and marine carbonates. The last part is dedicated to the ichnology in hydrocarbon reservoir and aquifer characterization. First overview in 25 years of the status of ichnological studies in facies reconstructions of all major depositional environments Written by a selected, well-experienced and specialized international authorship Provides easy access to the comprehensive and widespread literature

Book Synopsis Carbonate Depositional Environments by : Peter A. Scholle
Download or read book Carbonate Depositional Environments written by Peter A. Scholle and published by AAPG. This book was released on 1983 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the book you need to improve your interpretations of carbonates. Using a systematic treatment of the entire subject of carbonate depositional environments, this unique book is specifically designed for use by the non-specialist -- the petroleum geologist or field geologist -- who uses carbonate depositional environments in facies reconstructions and environmental intepretations. This classic work, covering settings from non-marine to deep water, focuses on the recognition of depositional environments with extenive use of color diagrams and photographs of sedimentary structures and facies assemblages. Although the ultimate purpose of this text is to improve exploration for oil, gas, and mineral deposits, it also includes environments not normally considered to be particularly prospective for oil and gas in an attempt to provide as complete a framework as possible for recognition of environments. Suitable for use as a textbook, this book is also an invaluable reference fo the specialist or advanced graduate student. It provides perspective on large-scale influences on carbonate depositional envionments such as tectonic patterns, fluctuations of sea level, variations of climate, and evolutionary patterns of organisms. --

Book Synopsis Analysis of the Cyclic Character of Siliciclastic Sediments at the New Jersey Continental Shelf Using Ultra-high Resolution 3D Seismic and Well Data by : Masoud Aali

This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation describes the development and application of geophysical techniques to understand the impact of eustasy on the deposition of shallow-marine stratigraphic sequences at the New Jersey margin ΜΆ one of the best places to study eustasy in sedimentary records. At this margin, eustasy has been the leading driver for sedimentary processes due to smooth thermal subsidence, continuous sediment supply, and stable tectonic history since the Oligocene. This study analyzes 564 km2 of 3D multi-channel seismic (MCS) data from the research cruise MGL1510 together with the IODP Expedition 313 well data to answer the following questions about the margin evolution: 1) What was the influence of eustatic changes on the shelf sedimentary structure during the late Miocene? 2) What was the impact of well-established orbital parameters on the spatial and temporal variations in processes controlling Miocene stratigraphic sequences? I developed the Geometrical Breakdown Approach (GBA) to systematically identify seismic packages based on their geometrical characteristics. The GBA facilitates an objective analysis of stratal patterns and brings the resolution of sequence stratigraphic analysis up to the resolution of the input seismic data. Implementing GBA to the 3D MCS data has resulted in identification of ~40% more structure within the Miocene sequences than previously determined. The new structural model provides the framework for estimating spatial patterns of petrophysical properties within clinothems, which may act as a heterogeneous conduit barrier system to fluid flow in offshore fresh-water aquifers and hydrocarbon reservoirs. The integrated methodology used in this research results in an unprecedented 3D model that dissects and characterizes the Miocene sedimentary record at a significantly higher resolution (~5 m laterally) than previously achieved (~100s of m). Spectral analysis of the cyclicity of these sediments yields local spectral peaks at a wide range of periods, from 25 Kyr to 2.5 Myr, that correspond to the cyclicity observed in insolation due to changes in the Earth's orbital parameters. The onshore-offshore movements of sequences show a 42% correlation with their contemporary insolation. These findings suggest that even short-period orbitally-driven eustatic changes had a direct impact on the Miocene sedimentary record of the margin.

Book Synopsis Carbonate-Clastic Transitions by : Laurence (Hy) Doyle
Download or read book Carbonate-Clastic Transitions written by Laurence (Hy) Doyle and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1987-12-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, the field of sedimentology has become subdivided into various specialities. Two of the largest groups are those who study clastic rocks and those who study carbonates. There is little communication between the two: journals appear which are exclusively devoted to one or the other, and research conferences tend to be mutually exclusive. On the other hand, rocks themselves cannot be "pigeon-holed" in this way - the facies change from clastic to carbonate both laterally and through time. This volume stems from the editors' observations of such changes in the Gulf of Mexico and their realization that these geologically important transitions were being largely ignored because of professional compartmentilization.The book opens with a chapter which gives an overview of the whole picture of global patterns of carbonate and clastic sedimentation. It then proceeds to a discussion of sedimentary models of siliciclastic deposits and coral reef relationships. The rest of the book comprises eight case studies on carbonate-clastic transitions, and a final chapter on control of carbonate-clastic sedimentation systems by baroclinic coastal currents.The aim of the book is to emphasize that clastic and carbonate sedimentation are not separate but part of a continuum - a transition which needs to be more thoroughly investigated and better understood. The excellent research papers presented here will undoubtedly help to achieve this goal.
Book Synopsis Mass-transport Deposits in Deepwater Settings by : R. Craig Shipp
Download or read book Mass-transport Deposits in Deepwater Settings written by R. Craig Shipp and published by SEPM Soc for Sed Geology. This book was released on 2011 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, submarine-mass failures or mass-transport deposits have been a focus of increasingly intense investigation by academic institutions particularly during the last decade, though they received much less attention by geoscientists in the energy industry. With recent interest in expanding petroleum exploration and production into deeper water-depths globally and more widespread availability of high-quality data sets, mass-transport deposits are now recognized as a major component of most deep-water settings. This recognition has lead to the realization that many aspects of these deposits are still unknown or poorly understood. This volume contains twenty-three papers that address a number of topics critical to further understanding mass-transport deposits. These topics include general overviews of these deposits, depositional settings on the seafloor and in the near-subsurface interval, geohazard concerns, descriptive outcrops, integrated outcrop and seismic data/seismic forward modeling, petroleum reservoirs, and case studies on several associated topics. This volume will appeal to a broad cross section of geoscientists and geotechnical engineers, who are interested in this rapidly expanding field. The selection of papers in this volume reflects a growing trend towards a more diverse blend of disciplines and topics, covered in the study of mass-transport deposits.
