Biochronological Correlations

The application of a deterministic mathematical model in solving stratigraphical problems leads to more realistic results than by statistic or probabilistic approaches. The aim of this analytical method, elaborated by the author, is to resolve systematically the multiple contradictions inherent to the stratigrahic record of fossil species. A theoretical part treating the interpretation of highly complex biostratigraphic data is followed by the presentation of the computer-aided Unitary Association Method. Geologists and structural geologists as well as micro-palaentologists in science and practice will benefit from this new tool in stratigraphy.
Das Problem der biostratigraphischen Korrelation stellt sich Geologen, Paläontologen, Strukturgeologen, Sedimentologen in Lehre und Forschung, aber auch in der Erdölindustrie. Für sie bietet dieses Buch die Grundlage für einen sedimentstratigraphischen Kurs und eine hervorragende Methode zur Erstellung einer biostratigraphischen Zeitskala.

Riassunto

The problem of biostratigraphic correlation is evident for geologists, paeleontologists, structural geologists, sedimentologists at universities, but also in the oil and gas industry. For all of them this book provides the basis for stratigraphic course and a reliable and effective tool for establishing biochronological time-scales.
