331	Fractal chaotic systems : investigation of the geological system and its sedimentation behaviour Karavas, Costas January 1990 (has links) Chaos theory has only recently been related to various phenomena in the earth sciences. Here, using systems theory in a description of geological processes, we study the chaotic development of sedimentary sequences. / The geosystem is treated as a partially specified system in order to apply qualitative stability analysis in the investigation of sedimentation behaviour and interactions among geological processes. The analysis suggests that the sedimentary system is unstable. This instability in conjunction with the system's sensitive dependence to internal fluctuations (i.e., those generated within the system) provide supporting evidence to suggest a chaotic behaviour for the sedimentation system. / We suggest that chaos could act as the common underlying mechanism which is manifest as the fractal-flicker noise character observed in reflectivity well logs. Acoustic impedance variations--the geophysical measures of lithologic variability--represent the internal organization of the interacting geological processes. This organization under a chaotic regime is responsible for the common statistical character found in various sedimentary basins. Geology. Geophysics.
