Field Guide to the Neogene Sedimentary Basins of the Almeria Province, Se Spain

The Almería Province of SE Spain, a semi-arid, tectonically active region, has formed the focus of a wide range of scientific teaching and research in the earth sciences by universities and associated bodies from all over the world. This field guide provides an up-to-date and integrated approach to the geology and geomorphology of Almería Province, compiled by active scientific researchers in the region. The guide assumes a basic knowledge of geology and geomorphology and will be of interest to earth scientists at all levels from the keen amateur through to undergraduate/postgraduate students and academics visiting the region. The emphasis of the guide is initially to provide a general background to the area followed by a selection of more specialist trips which progressively explore the structure and development of the basins, the shallow marine sedimentation, the continental sedimentation and finally the uplift, dissection and geomorphic evolution of the sedimentary basins. This field guide provides the first widely published field guide on the Almería Province and is unique in both its coverage and integrated earth science approach, providing a valuable support for both teaching and research in the region.Mather, Anne E. is the author of 'Field Guide to the Neogene Sedimentary Basins of the Almeria Province, Se Spain' with ISBN 9780632059195 and ISBN 0632059192.
