Mud-mounds are accumulations of biogenic carbonate sediment that are common in the geological record, and economically important as they host lead zinc mineralization and oil and gas. The book reviews, for the first time, the different mechanisms of mud-mound formation and examines in detail the major changes in mud-mound type and occurrence through geological time. The major part of the book contains case studies of mud-mounds from the Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic. The coverage is global and truly international, with 32 authors from 10 countries. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli style=\"list-style: none\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe first volume to deal with the structure, formation and evolution of mud-mounds.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCopiously illustrated, with nine colour plates.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \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=SP23\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction and Overviews\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003eA review of the origin and evolution of carbonate mud-mounds.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe rise and nature of carbonate mud-mounds: an introductory actualistic approach.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe origin, biota and evolution of deep-water mud-mounds.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePalaeozoic Mud-Mounds\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eShallow water stromatactis mud-mounds on a middle Ordovician foreland basin platform, western Newfoundland.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSilurian microbial build-ups of the Canadian Arctic.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe environmental setting of Early Carboniferous mud-mounds.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWaulsortian banks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCarbonate mud-mounds in the Fort Payne Formation (lower Carboniferous), Cumberland Saddle region, Kentucky and Tennessee, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLate Dinantian (Brigantian) carbonate mud-mounds of the Derbyshire carbonate platform.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMesozoic Mud-Mounds\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMud-mounds with reefal caps in the upper Muschelkalk (Triassic), eastern Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInitiation and development of small-scale sponge mud-mounds, Late Jurassic, Southern Franconian Alb, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAlbian carbonate mounds: comparative study in the context of sea-level variations (Soba, northern Spain).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNature and origin of late Cretaceous mud-mounds, North Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSedimentation, diagenesis and syntectonic erosion of Upper Cretaceous rudist mounds in central Tunisia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCenozoic Mud-Mounds\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn Eocene biodetrital mud-mound from the southern Pyrenean foreland basin, Spain: an ancient analogue for Florida Bay mounds?.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrigin and growth of carbonate banks in south Florida.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAnatomy of a Recent biodetrital mud-mound, Florida Bay, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGrowth and burrow-transformation of carbonate banks: comparison of modern skeletal banks of south Florida and Pennsylvanian phylloid banks of south-eastern Kansas, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Earth sciences [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Earth sciences\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Earth%20sciences%20%5BRB%5D%22\"\u003eRB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52410725564696,"sku":"9780865429338","price":125.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780865429338.jpg?v=1784250212","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/carbonate-mud-mounds-their-origin-and-evolution-paperback-softback-9780865429338","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
