Evolution and Controlling Factors of the Reef and Carbonate Platform in Wan’an Basin, South China Sea

Applied Sciences, 2022
In this study, high-resolution seismic profiles and well data provided a good opportunity for better understanding the reefs and carbonate platforms in the Wan’an Basin, southwest of the South China Sea, and also provided valuable information for the oil–

Biological evolution of the carbonate platform of the Taleh Zang Formation in Kermanshah region [PDF]

Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2021
In this paper, the biological evolution of the carbonate platform of the Taleh Zang Formation with Paleocene age in the Kermanshah region has been investigated in two stages (time interval) concentrating on fossil debris (such as algae, corals, and ...

Subduction and carbonate platform interactions

Geoscience Data Journal, 2022
Plate tectonics, as the unifying theory in Earth sciences, controls the functioning of important planetary processes on geological timescales. Here, we present an open‐source workflow that interrogates community digital plate tectonic reconstructions ...

Fault-Block Platform Evolution between Late Cretaceous and Early Miocene along the Margin of the Latium-Abruzzi Carbonate Platform (Southern Prenestini Mountains, Central Apennines, Italy)

Geosciences, 2022
Since the origin of the carbonate platform concept, the reconstruction of the geometry and the evolution of the margin has been an intriguing topic. The Latium-Abruzzi platform is one of the largest shallow water domains of the Central Apennines, however,

Stratigraphic evolution and drowning steps of a submerged isolated carbonate platform in the northern South China Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Drowned carbonate platforms on passive margins present a paradox, because their great growth potential exceeds the typical rates of passive margin subsidence and any relative sea-level rise driven by long-term processes in the geologic record.

The dasycladalean algae of the Plassen Carbonate Platform (Kimmeridgian-Early Berriasian) and the Barmstein Limestone (Late Tithonian): taxonomic inventory and palaeogeographical implications within the platform-basin-system of the Northern Calcareous Alp

Geologia Croatica, 2011
The present paper compiles an up-to-date taxonomic inventory of dasycladalean green algae of the Kimmeridgian-Early Berriasian Plassen Carbonate Platform and their resediments in basinal sediments (e.g., Barmstein Limestone, Sillenkopf Formation) of the ...

Remote Sensing Analysis of Recent Carbonate Platforms, East of Sabah: Potential Analogues for Miocene Carbonate Platforms of the South China Sea

Indonesian Journal on Geoscience, 2014
DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v7i3.141Recent carbonate platforms may provide useful analogues for fossil platforms and reefs, and could allow the generation of quantitative tools for the prediction of facies distribution, reservoir volumes, and reservoir quality ...

Coexistence of Adjacent Siliciclastic, Carbonate, and Mixed Sedimentary Systems: An Example From Seafloor Morphology in the Northern Lesser Antilles Forearc

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Three main types of factors commonly control the nature of the clasts, the arrangement of the distinctive lithologies, and the general architecture of turbidite systems: sedimentation rate and carbonate production; climates and glacio-eustatism; and ...
