Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 372. Not often do we as geologists have the opportunity to study a vertically extensive sequence of chronostratigraphic units over a spacious geographic area representing such a broad spectrum of lithologic types as will be afforded our participants during the next 10 days. From fluvial clastics to open-marine and richly fossiliferous sediments, we believe the Upper Cretaceous and Paleogene of the eastern Gulf Coastal Plain deserves its recognition as a classic area of spectacular geological exposures. We welcome you to the southern United States, especially known for its congenial people and tasty southern cooking. We wish it to be known that our intent as your field trip leaders is to help you enjoy the geology as well as experience some of the more historically significant areas and our southern hospitality. We hope each of you might benefit scientifically from the field trip and gain a better understanding of the geology and culture of the South. The field trip leaders wish to express appreciation for the time and energy of those involved in the planning, preparation, and execution of this field trip. The results of their efforts, often by altering existing busy schedules, have culminated in this field trip guidebook, one we believe represents a thorough treatment of the geology of the southeastern Gulf Coastal Plain. To the many "unseen" typists, draftspersons, assistants, and others who have aided in this effort, we extend our sincerest thanks.

This book was released on 1991-01-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 172. The Atlantic Coastal Plain Province is a low-relief physiographic plain, underlain by a gently-dipping, seaward-thickening wedge of unconsolidated Mesozoic and Cenozoic sediments. The province extends from Cape Cod, Massachusetts to the northwestern extension of the Peninsular arch in Georgia and is separated into emergent and submergent parts. The emerged part, located above sea level, is called the Coastal Plain, whereas the submerged part is the continental shelf. The eastern boundary of the Coastal Plain is the Atlantic shore and the western boundary or inner margin the Fall Line. The Fall Line marks the approximate contact between the underlying igneous and metamorphic rocks of the Piedmont Province and the generally unconsolidated sediments of the Coastal Plain. Coastal Plain sediments contain a record of most of the Upper Cretaceous and Cenozoic stages. These sediments reach their maximum thickness in the Salisbury, Albermarle, and Southeast Georgia embayments, and thin appreciably over the intervening South New Jersey, Norfolk, and Cape Fear arches. This series of alternating basins and highs has produced a complex sequence of lithologic units that vary extensively on a local as well as a regional scale. Lithologic units in the Coastal Plain consist of siliciclastics and carbonates, with carbonates being more abundant in the Southeast Georgia embayment. Mild deformation related to reactivation ofearly Mesozoic grabens and half-grabens has affected various parts of the stratigraphic section.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years there has been a virtual explosion of stratigraphic studies utilizing the principles of sequence stratigraphy. Although the concept of time stratigraphy is not new, the packaging of depositional units into systems tracts and sequences is. This new approach has led to the reassessment of areas that in some cases have been the subject of intense geological scrutiny for decades. The fundamental principles upon which sequence stratigraphy is based are applicable at a broad range of temporal and physical scales. This volume arises from several sessions on sequence stratigraphy held at the Thirteenth International Sedimentological Congress, with emphasis on facies associations within a sequence stratigraphic framework.
