![]() | Carbonate Environments and Sequences of Caicos Platform: Caicos, British West Indies to Miami, Florida, July 2026, 1989 Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 374. In addition to containing a typical suite of Holocene sedimentary facies, Caicos Platform also exhibits superb outcropping Pleistocene marine and non-marine sequences, providing a rare opportunity to see how modern facies are preserved in three dimensions. To allow comparison of major controls on shallow-marine carbonate sedimentation, this field excursion will begin by briefly examining Holocene sedimentary environments and facies forming in south Florida under the influence of a non-oceanic, low-relief, shelf setting and a rainy climate. Harold R. Wanless and Jeffrey J. Dravis are the authors of Carbonate Environments and Sequences of Caicos Platform: Caicos, British West Indies to Miami, Florida, July 20 - 26, 1989, Volume T374, published by Wiley. |
