The discipline of seismology is based on observations of ground motion that are inherently
undersampled in space and time. Our basic understanding of earthquake processes and our …

Shoreline and shelf‐edge trajectories describe the migration through time of sedimentary
systems, using geomorphological breaks‐in‐slope that are associated with key changes in …

Principles of Sequence Stratigraphy, Second Edition presents principles to practical
workflow that guide applications in a consistent manner that is independent of model …

Numerous cores and dating show the Yangtze River has accumulated about 1.16× 1012 t
sediment in its delta plain and proximal subaqueous delta during Holocene. High-resolution …

It has been more than a decade since the appearance of the First Edition of this book. Much
progress has been made, but some controversies remain. The original ideas of Sloss and of …

High-resolution seismic profiles from the North Yellow Sea reveal a 20–40-m-thick
subaqueous clinoform delta that wraps around the eastern end of the Shandong Peninsula …

Until recently, sequence stratigraphic models have attributed systems tracts to periods of
relative sea-level rise, highstand and lowstand. Recognition of a discrete phase of …

Outcrop exposures of sedimentary rocks at the Opportunity landing site (Meridiani Planum)
form a set of genetically related strata defined here informally as the Burns formation. This …

▪ Abstract Rift basins of the Central Atlantic Margins (CAM) of North America and Morocco
preserve largely continental sequences of sedimentary strata and less important minor …

The New Jersey Sea Level Transect was designed to evaluate the relationships among
global sea level (eustatic) change, unconformity‐bounded sequences, and variations in …
