Illustrated case studies, diagrams, maps, stratigraphic sections, and photographs document the structures left behind by ancient marine processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong its more visually striking material is a color geological map of the \u003cstrong\u003eCalifornia Borderland\u003c\/strong\u003e, showing the complex submarine basins, ridges, islands, channels, and other physiographic structures lying offshore Southern California.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book also represents a particular period in the history of applied geology, when increasingly sophisticated models of Earth's sedimentary environments were being closely integrated with the search for petroleum reservoirs. Today it provides a useful historical record of both the development of marine geology and the ways that scientific knowledge was applied by the fossil-fuel industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oscar E.
