Terrigenous Clastic Depositional Systems

Applications to Fossil Fuel and Groundwater Resources

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book bridges the gap between process-related outcrop studies of sedimentary rocks and the three-dimensional subsurface world of the mineral fuel geologist and hydrogeologist. It remains unique in its focus on the application of subsurface facies analysis to problems of petroleum, coal, uranium, and ground water resource discovery, delineation, and production.
