Recent Research on Geomorphology, Sedimentology, Marine Geosciences and Geochemistry
Proceedings of the 2nd Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-2), Tunisia 2019
Editors: Çiner, A., Grab, S., Jaillard, E., Doronzo, D., Michard, A., Rabineau, M., Chaminé, H.I. (Eds.)
- Presents several case studies regarding fault slip and incision rates, soil science, landslides and debris flows, coastal processes, and geoarcheology and geoheritage
- Provides new insights into the latest stratigraphic records and paleo-environmental/ environmental studies
- Includes case studies combining tectonic and diagenetic processes together with evolutionary, biostratigraphic, and paleo-environmental significance of paleontology
- Contains studies on marine geosciences, from molecular proxies related to climate to geophysical surveys
- Discusses the sedimentary, geochemical, and mineralogical characterization, magmatic and metamorphic processes and products, and the origin and exploration of mineral deposits
- Focuses mainly on studies from the Mediterranean and MENA region

This edited book is based on the papers accepted for presentation during the 2nd Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-2), Tunisia, in 2019. Major subjects treated in the book include geomorphology, sedimentology, and geochemistry. The book presents an updated unique view in conjugating field studies and modeling to better quantify the process-product binomial unusual in geosciences. In the geomorphology section, 24 papers deal with topics related to fault slip and incision rates, soil science, landslides and debris flows, coastal processes, and geoarcheology, and geoheritage. Under the sedimentology section, 34 papers including stratigraphy, and environmental, tectonic, and diagenetic processes, together with evolutionary, biostratigraphic, and paleo-environmental significance of paleontology are presented. Additionally, this section also contains papers on marine geosciences, from molecular proxies related to climate to geophysical surveys. Last but not least, the third section on geochemistry is composed of 26 papers that are focused on sedimentary geochemistry and mineralogical characterization, magmatic and metamorphic processes and products, and the origin and exploration of mineral deposits. This book resumes the current situation related to the abovementioned topics mainly in the Mediterranean realm. The volume book is of interest to all researchers, practitioners, and students in the fields of geomorphology, sedimentology, and geochemistry, as well as those engaged in environmental geosciences, soil science, stratigraphy and paleontology, geoarcheology and geoheritage, marine geosciences, petrology, metallogenesis, and mineral deposits.
