Palaeoweathering, Palaeosurfaces and Related Continental Deposits

Pages : 408
Book Description
The study of palaeoweathering provides vital clues about pastcontinental environments, the correlation of sedimentary depositsand processes such as the rate and timing of uplift and erosion. This volume (based partly on research presented at IGCP 317Palaeoweathering Records and Palaeosurfaces) contains contributionsthat use both geochemical and physical approaches to the study ofpalaeoweathering problems. The former are particularly relevant toour understanding of past climates and climate change; the latterhave applications in the understanding of mass balance betweenrates of erosion and deposition. Palaeoweathering, Palaeosurfaces and Related ContinentalDeposits illustrates the multidisciplinary nature of the subject,the diversity of techniques and, above all, the vital contributionthe subject makes to the reconstruction of ancient continentalenvironments. This book will be of great value to sedimentologists,soil scientists and geomorphologists.
