This memoir describes the sediments and rocks of central Broadland, the history of their formation and their relationship to the landscape. It also highlights the particular relevance of the geology of the district to a wide range of environmental and economic issues.

A memoir describing the sediments and rocks of the coastal region of East Anglia between Lowestoft and Aldeburgh, outlining the history of their formation and discussing their relationship to the present day landscape. The local geology has greatly influenced many aspects of human activity in the area, including agriculture, industry and tourism.

This latest memoir chronicles the geology of the Kingston-upon-Hull and Brigg areas of Humberside and north Lincolnshire, an area renowned for its natural resources. This new data, derived from comprehensive surveying of fully cored boreholes, should enable a better assessment of the existing resources of the region and will facilitate land-use planning. In addition a clearer understanding of the Quaternary succession giving a more complete picture of climatic and relative sea-level change over the past 2 million years will aid forecasting of the likely impact on Britain of future global change.

A new detailed international geologic time scale, including methodology and a wallchart.

This second edition of 'The Geology of England and Wales' is considerably expanded from its predecessor, reflecting the increase in our knowledge of the region, and particularly of the offshore areas. Forty specialists have contributed to 18 chapters, which cover a time range from 700 million years ago to 200 million years into the future. A new format places all the chapters in approximately temporal order. Both offshore and economic geology now form an integral part of appropriate chapters.
