{"product_id":"reefs-and-carbonate-platforms-in-the-pacific-and-indian-oceans-isbn-9780632047789","title":"Reefs and Carbonate Platforms in the Pacific and Indian Oceans","description":"This IAS Special Publication #27 contains 17 of the papers presented at the IAS International Workshop on Reefs and Carbonate platforms in the Pacific and Indian oceans held in Sydney (July 1995). This is the first book to summarize the current state of knowledge about reefs and carbonate platforms in these oceans, where there is a great diversity of carbonate systems in various tectonic settings. Papers concern both processes operating in reefs and carbonate platforms and case histories (platform and oceanic reef case histories). Case histories range from the Lower Cretaceous to modern reefs and most fossil carbonate platforms concern outcomes from recent ODP legs in the Pacific. The book covers a broad spectrum of disciplines related to carbonate geology: sedimentology, geochemistry, geophysics, reef ecology and modeling. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIf you are a member of the International Association of Sedimentologists, for purchasing details, please see:\u003c\/b\u003e http:\/\/www.iasnet.org\/publications\/details.asp?code=SP25\u003c\/p\u003e  Introduction. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProcesses Operating.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Boundaries Of Carbonate Platforms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Origin Of The Great Barrier Reef.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDevelopment And Demise Of Mid-Oceanic Carbonate Platforms, Wodejebato Guyot (NW Pacific).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eStable Tropics Not So Stable: Climatically-Driven Extinctions Of Reef-Associated Molluscan Assemblages (Western Indian Ocean, Last Interglacial To Present).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSedimentary Cycles In Carbonate Platform Facies: Fourier Analysis Of Geophysical Logs From ODP Sites 865 And 866.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlatform Case Histories.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAptian-Albian Eustatic Sea Levels.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrigin Of Massive Replacive Dolomite Within Atolls And Carbonate Platforms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eComputer Simulation Of A Cainozoic Carbonate Platform, Marion Plateau, Northeast Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eQuaternary And Tertiary Subtropical Carbonate Platform Development On The Continental Margin Of Southern Queensland, Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePleistocene Sea-Level Changes And The Consequent Development Of Reefs In The Ryukyu Islands, Southwestern Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOceanic Reef Case Histories.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAtolls And Volcanic Islands.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMorphology And Sediments Of The Foreslopes Of Mayotte, Comoro Islands: Direct Observations From Submersible.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTectonic And Monsoonal Controls On Coral Atolls In The South China Sea.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eModeling Of Interstitial Water Circulation Inside A Reef Platform: Steady State Flow, Heterogeneity Effects And Tidal Transient State.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eActive Margins\u003c\/b\u003e; Environmental And Tectonic Influence On Growth And Internal Structure Of A Fringing Reef At Tasmaloum (SW Espiritu Santo, New Hebrides Island Arc, SW Pacific).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePassive Margins.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLagoonal Sedimentation On Heron Reef, Southern Great Barrier Reef Province.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTerrigenous Sediment: A Control On Reef Development?.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eComparison Between Subtropical And Temperate Carbonate Elemental Composition: Examples From The Great Barrier Reef, Shart Bay And Tasmania, Australia And The Persian Gulf, UAE\u003c\/p\u003e \"This ISA Special Publication contains, without doubt, many interesting and valuable contributions.\" \u003ci\u003eJournal of Sedimentary Research\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c!--end--\u003e  \u003cp\u003eG.
