Book Description

Fourteen chapters discuss regional stratigraphy by time intervals from Precambrian to Quaternary, while other chapters describe the geography, geomorphology, tectonics, geophysical characteristics, and resources of the region. A summary chapter includes geologic maps, structural cross-sections, a geotectonic correlation chart, a gravity map, and a location map for exploration wells in the Arctic Islands and northern Greenland. A wealth of additional information is contained on the nine accompanying plates.

Book Description

The Hazen Formation is an especially significant unit in northern Ellesmere Island and Greenland, as its depositional history spans the Cambrian to Silurian and underlies (and is exposed) throughout a substantial portion of the Arctic Islands. Four of its subdivisions can be mapped individually and correlated over at least 100 kilometres. This paper provides preliminary observations concerning the nature and correlation of the Hazen Formation with age-equivalent portions of the basinal succession in northern Greenland and the adjacent shelf succession of north-east Ellesmere Island. The paper describes the stratigraphy of the outer- shelf and basin-fill successions exposed on Judge Daly Promontory, the five mapped subdivisions of the Hazen Formation, and the age & correlations of the Formation.

Book Description

Distributed by Elsevier Science on behalf of Science Press. Biostratigraphic data are basic to geological and palaeontological research. This book presents up-to-date material and research achievements in biostratigraphy in recent decades in China, and provides a variety of knowledge to lay a solid foundation for geologists and palaeontologists worldwide. It consists of 13 chapters covering 13 major geological systems. Every chapter addresses tectonic sedimentary domains, current biostratigraphic systems, series boundaries, faunal/floral succession, evolutionary trends and bioevents, correlation of the standard columns in China with other part of the world, facies patterns, palaeobiogeography and palaeogeography. * Up-to-date and authoritative data basic to geologic research about China and all Asia * Concepts, procedures and classification follow modern international standards updated to the present * Written by leading Chinese geologists and palaeontologists
