Description
The papers within these volumes were compiled between late 1978 and early 1980, from data on tillites and tillite-like rocks.
The research was conducted for the Pre-Pleistocene Tillite Project of the International Geological Correlation Programme, and was first published in volume form in 1981.
In this substantial work, M. J. Hambrey and W. B. Harland have assembled essays by leaders in the field of pre-Pleistocene glacial research.
The work's various chapters review in depth the glacial records of Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australasia, Europe, and North and South America.
The second volume concludes with a fascinating editorial overview of the pre-Pleistocene glacial record of the Earth as a whole.
The reader is also presented with a collection of readily accessible statistics, maps and charts.
This set will be of particular use to scholars of sedimentology, paleoclimatic patterns, climate change and ice ages, and the time-correlation of rocks.
