Trace Fossils as Indicators of Sedimentary Environments : Volume 64 Hardback
Edited by Dirk (Statoil ASA, Stavanger, Norway) Knaust, Richard G. (Geological Museum, Copenhagen, Denmark) Bromley
Part of the Developments in Sedimentology series
Hardback
Description
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.
