| Summary | The purpose of this text is to offer a mathematically well-defined unified framework to model sedimentary terrains. The core of this framework, named 'GeoChron', consists of a curvilinear coordinate system (u,v,t) which superimposes on the rectilinear coordinate system (x,y,z) commonly used to locate particles of sediment in the subsurface. For each particle of sediment observed today at location (x,y,z), coordinate (t) represents the geologicaltime ('Chron' in GeoChron) at which this particle was deposited whilst (u,v) represent the paleo-geographical coordinates ('Geol' in GeoChron) of this particle when it was deposited. |
