Special Publication 70
Topics covered range from classical biostratigraphy to molecular biomarkers, by way of trace element and isotope chemostratigraphy, magnetic polarity and susceptibility, and a small number of papers describe some numerical methods. There is no bias here towards deep ocean sediment stratigraphy, and the Mesozoic and Palaeozoic are as well represented as the Tertiary and Quaternary The reader will certainly gain a good impression of the wide range of stratigraphic activities and subject areas in which improvements to resolution are being actively sought.
