Description
Summary:"The first group of 14 papers is based on presentations made at the 1987 Symposium in Vancouver... they cover a broad spectrum of topics ranging from deep processes controlling the origin of basins, to the hydrodynamics of pore fluids within the basins. A variety of different basin settings are considered as well as several different perspectives on the mechanisms of formation of sedimentary basins. The second group of five papers is based on presentations at the XXVIIth International Geological Congress in Moscow. It broadens the coverage of the volume to include Precambrian basins as well as additional examples from other parts of the world."--Preface.
Item Description:Papers presented at the 27th International Geological Congress held in Moscow in 1984 and at the 19th General Assembly of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics held in Vancouver in 1987.
