This volume presents the reader with an overview of modern concepts and techniques in the analysis of sedimentary basins. It surveys a wide variety of methods for studying basins, focusing on fundamental approaches rather than regional geology. The coverage includes sources-area characterization, lithostratigraphy and chronostratigraphy, tectonics and sedimentation, Precambrian basins. Written by leading international experts in honor of Professor Francis J. Pettijohn, one of the founders of this field, this well illustrated and throroughly documented book will appeal to researchers and exploration geologists seeking a single resource on current research in basin analysis.
