Record #115361:

Towards an understanding of sediment deposition on glaciated continental shelves / James P.M. Syvitski.

Title: Towards an understanding of sediment deposition on glaciated continental shelves / James P.M. Syvitski.
Author(s): Syvitski, James P. M.
Date: 1991.
Abstract: Reviews and comments on: role of use of modern glacial settings as analogues to describes glacimarine deposits; present understanding of physics of water--ice--sediment interactions through development of numerical models; methods of sequence stratigraphy; stratigraphy recognized on glaciated continental shelves; and outstanding problems hampering development of unified stratigraphy on these glaciated shelves. Special focus on interpretation of marine diamicton.
