Latitudinal Controls on Stratigraphic Models and Sedimentary Concepts
Author: Carmen M. Fraticelli
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781565763463
Category : Geology, Stratigraphic
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
It is self-evident that a better understanding of depositional systems and analogs leads to better inputs for geological models and better assessment of risk for plays and prospects in hydrocarbon exploration, as well as enhancing interpretations of earth history. Depositional environments - clastic and carbonate, fine- and coarse-grained, continental, marginal marine and deep marine - show latitudinal variations, which are sometimes extreme. Most familiar facies models derive from temperate and, to a lesser extent, tropical examples. By comparison, depositional analogs from higher latitudes are sparser in number and more poorly understood. Numerous processes are amplified and/or diminished at higher latitudes, producing variations in stratigraphic architecture from more familiar depositional "norms." The joint AAPG/SEPM Hedberg Conference held in Banff, Alberta, Canada in October 2014 brought together broad studies looking at global databases to identify differences in stratigraphic models and sedimentary concepts that arise due to differences in latitude and to search for insights that may be applicable for subsurface interpretations. The articles in this Special Publication represent a cross-section of the work presented at the conference, along with the abstracts of the remaining presentations. This volume should be of great interest to all those working with stratigraphic models and sedimentary concepts.

Book Description
Excerpt from Tidal Observations in the Arctic Seas Dear sir: The records of the tidal observations made under the direction of Dr. Kane, in the second Grinnell Expedition to the Arctic Regions, were placed in my hands by his late lamented father, Judge Kane, in December, 1857. Dr. Kane had selected Assistant Charles A. Schott, of the U. S. Coast Survey, for the reduction of a considerable portion of the observations made on that expedi tion; and I, therefore, placed them in Mr. Schott's possession for reduction, and recommend his paper for publication in the Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge. It is proper to state that the computations were at the expense of the Smithsonian Institution. This is the sixth and last paper of the series. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.
