Episodic Global Tectonics: Sequence Stratigraphy Meets Plate Tectonics

Ashton Embry, Geological Survey of Canada, Calgary
Based on recent advances in plate tectonics, sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy, I suggest that the Earth is affected by relatively short-lived episodes of increased tectonic activity separated by longer intervals…

Storming the Ivory Tower

Raymond Levey, Energy & Geoscience Institute (EGI) at the University of Utah
The oil shock of 1973 transformed the global energy picture. As lines of automobiles snaked down the street awaiting their turn at the pumps,the realization dawned that plentiful, cheap energy…
