Content:
This volume contains papers presented at the
Geological Society on March 25th and 26th
1981, plus three additional contributions by
researchers who were unable to be present at
the meeting. The meeting brought together
earth scientists with interests in geomorphology,
geochemistry, pedology, sedimentology and
applied geology. The multidisciplinary
approach to the study of residual deposits is
reflected in the 25 chapters of this book, which
are arranged in four main groups:
Weathering processes (chapters 1-3);
Kaolinites, laterites and bauxites
(chapters 4-11);
Red beds (chapters 12-14);
Duricrusts: calcretes, silcretes and gypcretes
(chapters 15-25).
The last two chapters of the book deal with
karst related fluorite-baryte deposits, and
Cenozoic pedogenesis and landform develop-
ment in south-east England.
Richard Crockett, Andrew Goudie and Don
Highley provided invaluable suggestions during
the planning of the meeting that led to this
book.
