Wikipedia Articles
- Reverse stratigraphy - Reverse Stratigraphy: (Sometimes known as Inverted stratigraphy): The result when one sediment is unearthed by human or natural actions and moved elsewhere, whereby the latest material will be deposited on the bottom of the new sediment, and progressively earlier material will be deposited higher and higher in the stratigraphy. Such events can be triggered ...
- Tectonic stratigraphy - Tectonic Stratigraphy is a branch of geology which uses stratigraphy to investigate past tectonic events. An example would be investigating sandstones to ascertain the timing of the uplift of the mountain range from which the sediments were derived.
- International Commission on Stratigraphy - The International Commission on Stratigraphy concerns itself with stratigraphy on a global scale. It is the largest scientific body within the International Union of Geological Sciences.
- Stratigraphy - Stratigraphy, a branch of geology, studies rock layers and layering (stratification). It is primarily used in the study of sedimentary and layered volcanic rocks.
- Sequence stratigraphy - Sequence stratigraphy is a relatively new branch of geology that attempts to link prehistoric relative sea-level changes to sedimentary deposits. The essence of the method is mapping of strata based on identification of time lines (e.
