BIOSTRATIGRAPHY: MICROFOSSILS AND GEOLOGICAL TIME

About
"Following the development of biostratigraphy from classical origins into petroleum exploration and deep-ocean drilling, this survey explores in depth the surprisingly wide application of biostratigraphic methods. Traditionally, microfossil biostratigraphy has provided vital data for sedimentologists, especially for petroleum exploration and production, by allowing correlations between strata on regional and global scales. Recently, vast improvements in the resolution of biostratigraphic studies have come about through integration with dating from radioactive decay, gemagnetic reversals, and cyclostratigraphy. This has expanded the scope of biostratigraphical research, and has allowed a much improved understanding of microfossil habitats and evolution. This volume provides a comprehensive modern synthesis of the science of biostratigraphy." "Biostratigraphy: Microfossils and Geological Time is essential reading for advanced students and researchers working in biostratigraphy, basic analysis, sequence stratigraphy, palaeoceanography, palaeobiology and related fields."--Jacket.
