The Sedimentary Record of Sea-Level Change by Coe, Angela L.; Bosence, Dan W. J.; Church, Kevin D.; Flint, published by Cambridge University Press Paperback

by Angela L. Coe

This illustrated textbook describes how past changes in sea-level can be detected through an analysis of the sedimentary record, and how sequence stratigraphy techniques can provide explanations of how the sedimentary system evolves through geological time. Designed for use in undergraduate and graduate courses, it includes detailed case studies, set-aside focus boxes, and bulleted Questions and Answers interspersed throughout. The book is also supported by a website hosting sample pages.

Well I have to say of all the books and papers I have read about the subject this is by much the best. The record on sea level change and sequential stratigraphy are very well explained. It is very easy to understand as the figures used in the book are excellent.

I would recommend this book to anyone interested in the subject, but with a geoscientific background it is much more comprehensible.
