A library of computer programs for assisting teaching and research in cyclostratigraphic analysis

A collection of computer programs to generate time series based on defined stochastic processes is presented. The programs can be used to simulate and analyse stratigraphic successions. A program for the graphical representat ion of up to 10 time series makes this package self-contained. The programs are intended as an introduction to stratigraphic time series a nalysis and should be useful in the teaching of quantitative stratigraphy c ourses. Different examples are presented and discussed. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
