Sequence-stratigraphic models conceptualize the deposition of genetically related sediment packages along continental margins as a response to various phases of the cycle of relative change of sea level. Regional tectonics (subsidence/uplift), eustasy, and rate of sediment supply interact to produce the measure of relative change of sea level. During a complete cycle of sea-level change, characteristic stratal patterns resulting within siliciclastic systems comprise: a basal, basinward prograding wedge of lowstand (or shelf-margin) systems tract; an intermediate, retrogradational landward back-stepping, transgressive systems tract; and an upper, aggrading to prograding, highstand systems tract. In siliciclastic systems most of the terrigenous material is delivered to the basin during the lowstand. Stratal patterns in carbonate systems are comparable to those in the siliciclastic systems; much of the carbonate is transferred to the basin during lowstand progradation. However, carbonate can also be exported off-bank during late highstand, when productivity on the bank top is high while accommodation is reduced. Both lowstand and late highstand progradation contribute to lateral growth of the platform. In hybrid siliciclasticcarbonate systems, lowstands may be dominated by clastic deposition, while carbonate accumulation may occur both during lowstand and highstand times. The history of the development of the basic conceptual framework of sequence stratigraphy, and the efforts that led to the documentation of sea-level variations deciphered from sequence analysis of subsurface and outcrop data, is outlined. The resulting history of sea-level change and its relationship to the sedimentary patterns of the deep sea are also discussed. A climatic feedback model of an alternating erosive/corrosive response to sea-level fall and rise is offered. Erosion on the sea floor is dominant during low sea-stands, and canyon incision on the margins during major falls of sea level. Carbonate dissolution on the sea floor is enhanced during times of maximum flooding of the shelves and during early highstand when carbonate is conserved on the inner shelves and nearshore. During the late highstand phase, following reduced accommodation on the banks, carbonate is again exported to the basins, abating the corrosive cycle. Distinction between early and late highstand phases, and between late highstand and lowstand progradation is, therefore, critical to understanding the response of the carbonate system and deep-sea sedimentary patterns to sea-level change along continental margins. 37 pp. 16 figs, 1 tab., gr. 8.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Greenhouse-induced climate warming increasingly appears to be a reality, and the warming climate will be accompanied by an accelerated sea level rise - as much as 60-100 cm over the next century. What is commonly absent in the discussion of rising sea level, however, is the role played by the subsidence of low-lying coastal areas, which can have a far greater local effect than the eustatic rise of the sea. The combined sea-level rise and land subsidence will almost certainly make the greatest impact on coastal societies in the densely populated regions of southern Asia, but its effects will be felt globally. This volume explores the concepts of sea-level rise and coastal subsidence, both natural and anthropogenically accelerated, in the form of a series of case studies in such diverse locations as Bangkok, Bangladesh, Venice, and the Niger and Mississippi deltas, as well as a discussion of the economic, engineering and policy responses that must be considered if the effects of local sea-level rise are to be mitigated.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Sequence stratigraphy has advanced considerably since the early applications of the concepts on seismic data. It attempts to discern the migration of facies re sulting from changes in a combination of factors such as, sea level, tectonics, climate and sediment flux, and integrates it with a meaningful chronostratigraphy. The stratigraphic record is envisioned as a framework of repetitive packages of genetically-related strata, formed in response to the shifting base level, in which the locus of deposition of various sediment types may be anticipated. This attribute is rapidly promoting sequence stratigraphy as an indispensable tool for prediction of facies in exploration and production geology. In hydrocarbon exploration the application of sequence stratigraphy has ranged from anticipating reservoir- and source-rock distribution to predicting carbonate diagenesis, porosity and permeability. The capability to anticipate vertical and lateral distribution of facies and reservoir sands in the basinal, shoreface, incised valley-fill and regressive settings alone has been a great asset for exploration. In frontier areas, where data are often limited to seismic lines, sequence-stratigraphic methodology has helped determine the timing and of types of unconformities and anticipate transgressive- and regressive-prone intervals. In production it is aiding in field development by providing improved source and seal predictions for secondary oil recovery. A recognition of stratigraphic causes of poor recovery through improved understanding of internal stratal architecture can lead to new well recompletions and enhanced exploitation in existing fields. The sequence-stratigraphic discipline is in a state of rapid expansion. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Anthropogenic transformation of the coastal zone continues at a steady pace, especially in the developing maritime countries, where coastal resources are often crucial to national economies. However, exploitation of these resources is often indiscriminate, ill planned, or carried out without adequate scientific knowledge. This leads to rapid resource depletion, and often irreversible environmental degradation. The 1992 Rio de Janeiro UN Conference on Environment and Development recognized the expediency of an integrated and sustainable use of all coastal resources, functions and services grounded on sound scientific data. The present volume is based on the 1994 international workshop Integrated Coastal Zone Management, and brings together contributions by leading specialists both on basic concepts and on applications of coastal management. The work is divided into six parts, dealing with the conceptual framework of ICZM; regional and global aspects of coastal management; environmental assessment in ICZM; capacity building and technology transfer; monitoring and environmental analysis; and case studies and status of ICZM plans. The book also incorporates an interactive ICZM planning module, COSMO, which can be of use in designing a management plan for a coast. Attention is also given to long-term environmental effects of present-day actions. It is hoped that COSMO will prove an additional learning tool for ICZM practitioners and enhance the value of the book. This work is intended to give a broad coverage of conceptual and technical aspects of ICZM, and will be of use to operational executives as well as students of ICZM, environmental economists, policy-makers and senior managers in the international development agencies and governmental and non-governmental organizations. It can be recommended as a textbook and as a reference work.…
