Studies of Cave Sediments : Physical and Chemical Records of Paleoclimate

Suitable for geoscience researchers and students with interests in climate change, paleohydrology, and sedimentology, this title focuses on cave sediments, gives guidance on appropriate applications of techniques, and their limitations, and synthesizes methods that can be used to decipher complex deposits.
