Tectonic Evolution of the North Sea Rifts

This volume presents an up-to-date account of the development of the North Sea Rift system and its associated sedimentary basins, with contributions by leading researchers. The work examines tectonic and palaeogeographic development, using evidence from proposed crustal models, and discusses the geological mechanism of rifting and its influence on the structure and patterns of sedimentation in the basins and their bearing on the potential for oil and gas accumulation. A comprehensive gravity map is included.Blundell, D. J. is the author of 'Tectonic Evolution of the North Sea Rifts', published 1991 under ISBN 9780198545958 and ISBN 0198545959.
