TitleCoastal Upwelling Its Sediment Record : Part A: Responses of the Sedimentary Regime to Present Coastal Upwelling
Author(s)Suess, Erwin;Thiede, J??rn
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer US, 1983.
DescriptionXV, 604 p. 127 illus., 6 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteNATO Advanced Research Institutes are designed to explore unre?? solved problems. By focusing complementary expertise from various disciplines onto one unifying theme, they approach old problems in new ways. In line with this goal of the NATO Science Committee, and with substantial support from the u.s. Office of Naval Research and the Seabed Assessment Program of the U. S. National Science Founda?? tion, such a Research Institute on the theme of Coastal Upwelling and Its Sediment Record was held september 1-4, 1981, in Vilamoura, Portugal. The theme implies a modification of uniformitarian thinking in earth science. Expectations were directed not so much towards find?? ing the key to the past as towards exploring the limits of interpret?? ing the past based on present upwelling oceanography. Coastal up?? welling and its imprint on sediments are particularly well-suited for such a scientific inquiry. The oceanic processes and conditions characteristic of upwelling are well understood and are a well?? packaged representation of ocean science that are familiar to geolo?? gists, just as the magnitude of bioproduction and sedimentation in upwelling regimes --among other biological and geological processes-?? have made oceanographers realize that the bottom has a feedback role for their models

TitleQuantitative Diagenesis: Recent Developments and Applications to Reservoir Geology
Author(s)Parker, A;Sellwood, B.W
PublicationDordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 1994.
DescriptionIX, 288 p : online resource
Abstract NoteReservoirs generally consist of sandstones or carbonates exhibiting heterogeneities caused by a wide range of factors. Some of these formed depositionally (e.g. as channels, palaeosols, clay seams or salts), others may be diagenetic in origin (e.g. carbonate or silica cemented zones, authigenic clays, karstic surfaces). The severity with which diagenesis affects rock systems results from the interplay between the diagenetic process itself and the timescale over which it operated. The book provides a wide-ranging overview of diagenetic processes and responses in calcareous, argillaceous, arenaceous and carbon-rich (microbial and organic) sedimentary systems. It introduces diagenetic concepts, reviews existing knowledge, and shows how existing qualitative approaches might be developed in more quantitative ways. Several chapters consider mass balance calculations and the temporal and spatial aspects of diagenetic processes. It is unique, as a textbook, in providing such a breadth of diagenetic subject range and such depth of coverage in each topic. It provides a source reference for advanced students and professionals active in reservoir and aquifer studies
