Tectonics, global changes in sea level and their relationship to stratigraphical sequences at the US Atlantic continental margin
The principal factors that control the extent of seas through geological time are vertical movements of the lithosphere and global changes in sea level. The relative height of the sea surface determines the facies and the thickness of sediments that can accumulate in a sedimentary basin. Backstrippi...
