The Almería Province of SE Spain, a semi-arid, tectonically active
region, is the focus of a wide range of scientific teaching and
research in the earth sciences by universities and associated
bodies from around the world. This field guide provides an
up-to-date and integrated approach to the geology and geomorphology
of Almería Province, compiled by active scientific researchers in
the region. The guide assumes a basic knowledge of geology and
geomorphology and will be of interest to earth scientists at all
levels from the keen amateur through to undergraduate/postgraduate
students and academics visiting the region. The guide provides
general background on the area, followed by a selection of
specialized trips that progressively explore the structure and
development of the basins, the shallow marine sedimentation, the
continental sedimentation and finally the uplift, dissection and
geomorphic evolution of the sedimentary basins. This is the first
widely published field guide on the Almería Province and it is
unique in both its coverage and integrated earth science approach,
providing valuable support for both teaching and research in the
region.
