Advances in Jurassic Research: 4th International Congress Jurassic Stratigraphy and Geology, Argentina, 1994 (Georesearch Forum, Vols 1-2)

Research in the field of Jurassic stratigraphy has been increasingly active up to the current date. This volume aims to present new results, as well as to suggest areas for further research work and new and/or different stratigraphical tools, such as sequence stratigraphy. Formal questions on Jurassic stratigraphy are also discussed, such as fine definitions of the boundaries of stage, series and the system itself. The topics covered include: invited lectures, biostratigraphy and correlation; sedinentary geology and palaeoecology; regional stratigraphy and tectonics, magnetostratigraphy and palaeomagnetism and correlation of Jurassic events in South America.
