Carbonate Depositional Systems: Assessing Dimensions and Controlling Parameters The Bahamas, Belize and the Persian/Arabian Gulf /

Carbonate sediments are of increasing relevance for archives of past environmental conditions and for economical reasons in areas of geothermal energy and hydrocarbon reservoirs. Complex interaction of physical and chemical parameters with biological parameters determines the architecture and compos...
