Microfacies and diagenesis of lower and middle cretaceous carbonate rocks of NW-Yugoslavia (Slovenia, Trnovo area)Facies - Tập 21 - Trang 135-169 - 1989
Roman Koch, Bojan Ogorelec, Sascha Orehek
A profile of about 1400 m thickness near the village of Trnovo in the Trnovo forest in SW-Slovenia was studied for the microfacies and diagenetic development of the carbonate rocks. Because of the detailed biostratigraphic subdivision being just in improvement, the interval from the problematic Jurassic/Cretaceous to the Tertiary boundary (Berriasian-Cenomanian, fault, Senonian) was subdivided int...... hiện toàn bộ
Lebensspuren von Meersauriern und ihren Beutetieren im mittleren Jura (Callovien) von Liesberg, SchweizFacies - Tập 39 - Trang 105-124 - 1998
Jörn Geister
Numerous gutter-like furrows, up to 60 cm wide and up to 9 m long are preserved at the interface “Macrocephalus Beds”/“Callovian Marl” over a surface of 20 by 200 m. They are interpreted as feeding traces made by large marine vertebrates, most likely plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurs searching for food in the lime mud of the shallow Middle Jurassic sea floor. Possible prey animals were infaunal inverte...... hiện toàn bộ
Middle Triassic carbonate deposits and calcareous algae from the Sasca zone (Southern Carpathians, Romania)Facies - Tập 30 - Trang 85-100 - 1994
Ioan I. Bucur, Carol Strutinski, Dana Pop-Stratila
The Sasca zone situated in the innermost part of the Getic Domain from the South Carpathians comprises mainly Triassic deposits of Scythian-Anisian (?Ladinian) age that can be ascribed to four different members forming the Sasca Formation. Three of the members consist of carbonate deposits. Their study permitted a brief characterization of the main microfacies types, and especially in the Valea Su...... hiện toàn bộ
Coral zonation of an Oxfordian reef tract in the northern French JuraFacies - Tập 50 - Trang 545-559 - 2005

During the Middle Oxfordian, numerous coral reefs flourished on the northern margin of the Tethys Ocean. The outcrop of Bonnevaux-le-Prieuré (northern French Jura mountains) provides a rare opportunity to observe a nearly complete section allowing the installation, evolution and demise of this global carbonate reef rich event to be studied. Quantitative data on coral assemblages together with sedi...... hiện toàn bộ
Paleoceanography and rotational block faulting in the Jurassic carbonate series of the Chiemgau Alps (Bavaria)Facies - Tập 24 - Trang 1-23 - 1991
Klas S. Lackschewitz, Uwe Grützmacher, Rüdiger Henrich
The Jurassic carbonate series of the Lechtal and Allgäu Nappes in the central part of the Northern Calcareous Alps reflect formation of orogen-parallel structures with swells and basins. Regional facies patterns display the morphologies of the various depositional environments. During the Middle Jurassic, an elongated swell evolved parallel to the overall structural strike in the central part of L...... hiện toàn bộ
Facies patterns of a tropical heterozoan carbonate platform under eutrophic conditions: the Banc d’Arguin, MauritaniaFacies - Tập 61 - Trang 1-24 - 2014
André Klicpera, Julien Michel, Hildegard Westphal
High-nutrient tropical carbonate systems are known to produce sediments that, in terms of skeletal composition, are reminiscent of their extra-tropical counterparts. Such carbonate systems and associated carbonate grain assemblages in the tropics are rare in the present-day world. Nonetheless, it is crucial to gain a better understanding of those ecosystems, including their drivers and players bec...... hiện toàn bộ
