Stratigraphic, Tectonic, Thermal, and Diagenetic Histories of the Monterey Formation, Pismo and Huasna Basin, California
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Stratigraphic, Tectonic, Thermal and Diagenetic Histories of the Monterey Formation, Pismo and Huasna Basin, California - The subject of this field trip, the Monterey and adjacent formations, are examined in detail in the Pismo Basin and to a lesser extent in the Huasna Basin. This guidebook is unconventional in the sense that it is not tied to the individual stops, but instead is a series of old and new articles that are based on observations made at the field trip stops.
