Stratigraphy: A Comprehensive Reference is a complete review of each type of stratigraphy in a consistent and systematic manner, including definitions, concepts, practical applications, and case studies in every chapter. The book opens with an overview of stratigraphy along with the historical principles of the discipline. Each of the following chapters defines and explains a specific type of stratigraphy in depth. These types include lithostratigraphy (lithology), biostratigraphy (fossil content), chemostratigraphy (geochemical properties), magnetostratigraphy (magnetic polarity), chronostratigraphy (absolute age), cyclostratigraphy (relationship to astronomical forcing), allostratigraphy (lithological discontinuities), and sequence stratigraphy (stratal stacking patterns). Each chapter follows the same outline and includes the same elements, creating a convenient and accessible reference to quickly review and compare the different types of stratigraphy. This invaluable text provides a key reference for stratigraphic correlation in a wide range of applications.• Comprehensive reference for stratigraphy to guide instruction and research• In-depth description of all types of stratigraphy allows for understanding and comparison of all approaches• Analysis of the pros and cons of each stratigraphic approach provides clarification of stratigraphic methodology
