Subsequently he taught at the University of Tübingen, but moved to Kiel in 1958 to study modern marine sedimentation and manage the Geological-Palaeontological Institute of the University as its director. He studied geology in Bonn and in Tϋbingen. KeywordsĮugen Seibold was born in Stuttgart. While much of the original text was written by Seibold, a considerable portion of the material presented in this edition is new, taking into account the recent great shift in marine geological research, some of it with great relevance to human concerns arising in a rapidly changing world. This Introduction builds on the third edition of “The Sea Floor” by E.

Basic mineralogical, geochemical, biological and other relevant data and a detailed list of books and symposia are given in an Appendix. The text tries to transmit to the reader excitement of marine geological research both aboard and in modern laboratories.

They should allow the reader to comment on new results about plate tectonics, marine sedimentation from the coasts to the deep sea, climatological aspects, paleoceanology and the use of the sea floor. Relevant geophysical, geochemical, sedimentological and paleontological methods are shortly described. The list of topics has grown greatly in the last few decades beyond the items identified by Eugen Seibold as central and now includes prominently such things as methane and climate change that is, the carbon cycle and the Earth system as a whole. This textbook deals with the most important items in Marine Geology, including some pioneer work.
