This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation focuses on the architecture, depositional setting, fluid dynamics, and stratigraphic evolution of deep-water deposits in the Taranaki and Molasse Basins. This dissertation consists of three chapters: two of them are studies of the Mount Messenger Formation in the Taranaki Basin, New Zealand, and the third is the study of the Puchkirchen Formation in the Molasse Basin, Austria. Chapter 1 is a field-based outcrop study of the channel-lobe complex in New Zealand which documents the terminal destination of the siliciclastic deposits on the basin floor. Chapter 1 gives a more precise and polished picture to timing of filling and deposition of the channel and lobe complexes, and a larger picture of the paleogeography of the eastern Taranaki Basin. The subsurface study of Chapter 2 explores the interplay between submarine channel belt and overbank deposits in the Molasse Basin in Austria. This chapter describes the interaction between turbidity currents and debris flows within the channel as well as documents in more detail the slope of the foreland basin and gullies developed on it. Chapter 3 explores the hydrodynamics of formation of dune-size ripples under high-density turbidity currents.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study establishes an architectural framework of sedimentary facies, event beds, and sedimentary bodies for channelized deep-water sandstone and siltstone deposits within the Lower Mount Messenger Formation (LMMF). Well exposed outcrops of the Late Miocene Mount Messenger Formation are present along the Taranaki coast of the North Island, New Zealand. These exposures provide an opportunity to study submarine channel complexes deposited within an inner basin-floor fan to base of slope setting. Sedimentary facies and architectural elements are described from the axis to the margin and overbank of channel complexes to show spatial and temporal variation of subaqueous flow properties operating at the time of deposition. Facies were placed into an architectural framework to show organized changes in the diversity and abundance of bodies across the LMMF. Thirty hydrodynamic facies were described from outcrop exposures. Each facies represents varying hydrodynamic processes and sediment sources present during deposition. Sediments in the LMMF are interpreted to represent deposition by high- and low-density turbidity currents, concentrated and hyperconcentrated density flows, en masse movements, and debris flows. Six channel complexes described from coastal and inland outcrops record the variation of sedimentary facies spatially and temporally throughout their evolution. Analysis of architectural elements and sedimentary facies across the LMMF indicates flows were weakly confined within the basal interval, and progressively became more confined up-dip. This is reflected by multilateral channels near the base, and multistory channels up-section. Minor flow transformations within subaqueous flows are inferred. The sediments within the LMMF reflect an overall temporal decrease in flow strength, flow frequency, and event bed thickness, and a temporal increase in flow variability up-section from the base. Channels were deposited within a 3.5 km wide channel belt with the uppermost channels confined to a 1.7 km wide master erosional channel south of the lowermost channels. Paleoflow was directed to the northwest with little variation between each successive channel complex.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exchange of information in the field of earth sciences is increasingly needed to stay informed about advances. However, the continuous increase in the number of journal articles and books is very noticeable, while the available time to keep up is decreasing. Such a large flow of information commonly necessitates professionals to search selec tively for material and special publications in one's sub-discipline that have more specific coverage. In addition to surveying research needs, earth scientists working in a pure or applied research environment collect and produce information that often is of interest to the much larger group of industry-employed geologists and geophysicists, to professionals employed by agencies, and to students. To accommodate this exchange of needed information, Springer-Verlag is launching a monograph series entitled "Frontiers in Sedimentary Geology." This series will cover a number of subjects related to sediments and sedimentary rocks in a manner that both the researcher and the industrially oriented earth scientist can use constructively. Pub lications in this monograph series may fit one or more of the following main categories: Topical A topical subject will cover either the different aspects of a selected environment of deposition, or present a world tour of a particular depositional environment to dem onstrate its variability and its commonalities. The author(s) or editor(s) accepts the responsibility to guide the reader as to the state of knowledge, rather than providing a set of independent chapters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are poised to embark on a new era of discovery in the study of geomorphology. The discipline has a long and illustrious history, but in recent years an entirely new way of studying landscapes and seascapes has been developed. It involves the use of 3D seismic data. Just as CAT scans allow medical staff to view our anatomy in 3D, seismic data now allows Earth scientists to do what the early geomorphologists could only dream of - view tens and hundreds of square kilometres of the Earth's subsurface in 3D and therefore see for the first time how landscapes have evolved through time. This volume demonstrates how Earth scientists are starting to use this relatively new tool to study the dynamic evolution of a range of sedimentary environments.

Book excerpt: "Extending from Colorado, USA, on the north to the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, on the south, the Rio Grande rift divides the Colorado Plateau on the west from the interior of the North American craton on the east. This volume focuses on the Rio Grande rift's upper crustal basins and is organized geographically with study areas progressing from north to south. Nineteen chapters cover a variety of topics, including sedimentation history, rift basin geometries and the influence of older structure on rift basin evolution, faulting and strain transfer within and among basins, relations of magmatism to rift tectonism, and basin hydrogeology"--Provided by publisher.
