  • Sequence Stratigraphy and Depositional Response to Eustatic, Tectonic and Climatic Forcing

    Edited by B.U. Haq ...
    Series Book 1 - Coastal Systems and Continental Margins
    Sequence stratigraphy has advanced considerably since the early applications of the concepts on seismic data. It attempts to discern the migration of facies re sulting from changes in a combination of factors such as, sea level, tectonics, climate and sediment flux, and integrates it with a meaningful chronostratigraphy. The stratigraphic record is envisioned as a framework of repetitive packages ... Read more

  • Sea-Level Rise and Coastal Subsidence: Causes, Consequences, and Strategies

    Edited by B.U. Haq, J.D. Milliman ...
    Series Book 2 - Coastal Systems and Continental Margins
    Greenhouse-induced climate warming increasingly appears to be a reality, and the warming climate will be accompanied by an accelerated sea level rise - as much as 60-100 cm over the next century. What is commonly absent in the discussion of rising sea level, however, is the role played by the subsidence of low-lying coastal areas, which can have a far greater local effect than the eustatic rise of ...
