English | 1999 | pages: 261 | ISBN: 0306461528, 147578192X | PDF | 10,1 mb
It is difficult for today’s students of archaeology to imagine an era when chronometric dating methods were unavailable. However, even a casual perusal of the large body of literature that arose during the first half of the twentieth century reveals a battery of clever methods used to determine the relative ages of archaeological phenomena, often with considerable precision.

Impact Stratigraphy The Italian Record (2024)


Free Download Alessandro Montanari Alessandro/ Koeberl Christian, "Impact Stratigraphy: The Italian Record"
English | 2000 | pages: 372 | ISBN: 3540663681 | PDF | 7,7 mb
This book provides a general introduction to impact stratigraphy, with emphasis on the recognition of distal impact ejecta in the field, by focusing on the impactoclastic layers of the Umbria-Marche sequence in Central Italy, with an almost perfect stratigraphic record over the last 200 Million years. A general introduction to impact cratering and a discussion of distal ejecta and impact layers around the world is followed by a detailed description of the record of the impact of extraterrestrial bodies in sediments of the Umbria-Marche Apennines. The volume is of interest to a diverse audience in the geological and planetary sciences, ranging from (upper) undergraduate to research level. This book can also be used by students and researchers as a field guide to some of the most important Italian impact layers.

Stratigraphy Around the Permian-Triassic Boundary of South China


Free Download Stratigraphy Around the Permian-Triassic Boundary of South China by Wei-hong He, G. R. Shi, Jian-xin Yu, Dao-Liang Chu, Ke-Xin Zhang, Hai-Shui Jiang, Ting-Lu Yang, Yi-Fan Xiao
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 294 Pages | ISBN : 9819993490 | 100 MB
This book timely provides high-quality records of 32 PTB sections across different depositional settings from terrestrial to marine facies in South China, including descriptions of lithologies, high-resolution correlation of key boundaries and fossil occurrences at each section. This book also analyzes the patterns and processes of the community and ecosystem evolution over space and through time in the lead to the end-Permian mass extinction, and critically analyzes the mostly debated hypothesis, anoxia and volcanism, which were considered as the causes of mass extinction, based on the data from the studied sections of South China, together with materials from other regions of the world.
