Book Description
Excerpt from The Upper Ordovician Rocks of Kentucky and Their Bryozoa Sir: - I have the honor to herewith submit for publication a report on the Upper Ordovician Rocks of Kentucky and their Bryozoa, by Professor John M. Sickles. This is a contribution toward the proper classification of our geological formations, which, as has been stated in another report, is necessary for an intelligent and adequate understanding of their economic values. In order, for example, that we may be able to estimate the depth below the surface at which a known oil or gas-bearing stratum may be found, we must be able to identify the beds seen at the surface and know their relations to other beds in the series of which the oil-beariug stratum forms a member. The identification of particular beds or a groupof bedsiuaseries of stratified rocks largely depends upon a knowledge of their characteristic fossils. There is less general knowledge of bryozoa than of other fossil forms, and yet they are often the only trustworthy means for discriminating some of the minor divisions of a formation series. The Surrey has been fortunate in having the services of Professor Nickles in dealing with that difficult feature of our classification studies, as they relate to the Upper Ordovician or Cincinnatian rocks. The general study of the Cincinnatian series is in the hands of Professor Aug. F. Foerste. His report, which will include many plates, is in course of preparation. It seems well to here notice two suggestions made by Professor Nickles. Calling attention to the fact that the Eden beds are the ones that constitute the least fertile of the Ordovician lands, he suggests that a systematic replanting of timber in the Eden areas would be of exceeding value to the State.

Stratigraphy of the British Isles

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 484
Book Description
This is a reprint of the second edition of Dr Rayner's standard text on the stratigraphy and historical geology of the British Isles. The book is written for undergraduates and other readers who may have only a general acquaintance with the broad principles of geology. An introductory chapter reviews the basic principles of stratigraphy, geochronology and tectonics. The various geological systems found in the British Isles are then considered in turn. A valuable feature of the book is the extensive treatment of different regional areas within the discussion of a particular geological system. In the final chapter the author reviews briefly those major economic resources that are related to stratigraphy. Throughout the text care has been taken to introduce the plate tectonic interpretation of stratigraphic features. Much more is known about the neighbouring continental shelf and the geology of sea floors and this also is included in order to provide a comprehensive integrated account of the geological history of the British Isles.
