Regional Geology and Tectonics: Principles of Geologic Analysis
Volume 1: Principles of Geologic Analysis
Paperback Engels 2020 2e druk 9780444641342Samenvatting
Regional Geology and Tectonics: Principles of Geologic Analysis, 2nd edition is the first in a three-volume series covering Phanerozoic regional geology and tectonics. The new edition provides updates to the first edition’s detailed overview of geologic processes, and includes new sections on plate tectonics, petroleum systems, and new methods of geological analysis.
This book provides both professionals and students with the basic principles necessary to grasp the conceptual approaches to hydrocarbon exploration in a wide variety of geological settings globally.
