Download or read book The Geology of the Irish Sea written by D. I. Jackson and published by Balogh Scientific Books. This book was released on 1995 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report covers the area of the Irish Sea between the North Channel and St George's Channel. A wide range of geological features are studied. For example, the channel is thought to contain rocks from the geological systems, ranging from the Precambrian schists and gneisses to Cretaceous chalk and Paleogene basalts. Offshore, Carboniferous and permo-Triassic strata dominate, and have considerable economic interest. The Carboniferous rocks contain coal and advances in technology may renew commercial interest offshore. The report also provides insights into sedimentary processes at work in the Irish Sea. The adjacent land areas include a number of major conurbations, all of which discharge effluent into the sea.

Download or read book The Geology of the Central North Sea written by R. W. Gatliff and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The area covered by this report extends from the eastern coast of Scotland and northern England to the international median line in the North Sea where the UK sector joins Norwegian, Danish, German and Dutch waters. From south to north, the area extends from 55 degrees N to 58 degrees N, but it reaches only as far as 57 degrees 30'N to the west of 0 degrees. This report area includes much of the Central Graben and its junction with the Viking Graben and Outer Moray Firth Basin; it contains several important oilfields, the largest of which is Forties.

Download or read book Geology of the Country Around Thame written by Albert Horton and published by Balogh Scientific Books. This book was released on 1995 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past, the rocks described in this memoir have been a prolific source of building stone and can be seen in the fabric of many local buildings, including the Oxford colleges. Other natural resources for the construction industry have been worked in the district and the need for these continues. This memoir is a good source of geological background information for planners and civil engineers. The district extends from the eastern suburbs of Oxford to the western outskirts of Aylesbury. Between the towns the area is one of pleasant countryside, with a topography which closely reflects the outcrop geology of Jurassic and Cretaceous rocks. This memoir integrates some of the large body of existing literature with new information gathered during the recent detailed survey of the district.
Download or read book European Glacial Landscapes written by David Palacios and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2022-09-16 with total page 645 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European Glacial Landscapes: Last Deglaciation brings together relevant experts on the history of glaciers and their impact on the landscape of the main European regions. Soon after the Last Glacial Maximum, a rapid process of the glacial retreat began throughout Europe. This was interrupted several times by abrupt climate cooling, which caused rapid, although moderate, re-advance of the glaciers, until the beginning of the Holocene when the climate became relatively stable and warm. These successive glacial advances and retreats during the Last Deglaciation have shaped much of the European landscape, reflecting abrupt climatic fluctuations. As our knowledge of abrupt climate changes since the Last Glacial Maximum progresses, new uncertainties arise. These are critical for understanding how climate changes disseminate through Europe, such as the lag between climate changes and the expansion or contraction of glaciers as well as the role of the large continental ice sheets on the European climate. All these contributions are included in the book, which is an invaluable resource for geographers, geologists, environmental scientists, paleoclimatologists, as well as researchers in physics and earth sciences. - Provides a synthesis that highlights the main similarities or differences, through both space and time, during the Last Deglaciation of Europe - Features research from experts in quaternary, geomorphology, palaeoclimatology, palaeoceanography and palaeoglaciology on the Last Deglaciation in Europe during Termination 1 and the important Late Pleistocene-Holocene transition - Includes detailed colour figures and maps, providing a comprehensive overview of the glacial landscapes of Europe during the last deglaciation

Book excerpt: The Cadair Idris district lies at the southern edge of the Snowdonia National Park and, from the high ridges of the Cadair Idris massif to the tidal reaches of the Mawddach and Dyfi estuaries, it is an area of spectacular beauty. For many geologists it is a special place as it lies close to the heart of Sedgwick's Cambrian System. The survey of the Cadair Idris district has followed those of the Harlech, Snowdon and Bangor districts to the north and has broadened the correlation of the Cambrian and Ordovician sequences in north-west Wales.
