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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Development and dolomitization of Anisian isolated carbonate platforms in the Transdanubian Range, Hungary [PDF]

open access: yesCentral European Geology, 2022
Abstract In the Middle Anisian, extensional tectonic movements led to the development of isolated carbonate platforms in the area of the southwestern part of the Transdanubian Range. The platforms are made up of meter-scale peritidal–lagoonal cycles bounded by subaerial exposure surfaces.

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)

open access: yesGeosciences, 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,

Synchroneity of major late Neogene sea level fluctuations and paleoceanographically controlled changes as recorded by two carbonate platforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Shallow-water carbonate systems are reliable recorders of sea level fluctuations and changes in ambient seawater conditions. Drilling results from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Legs 133 and 166 indicate that the timing of late Neogene sedimentary breaks ...

Lithostratigraphy and depositional episodes of the Oligocene carbonate-rich Tikorangi Formation, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The subsurface Oligocene Tikorangi Formation is a unique and important oil producer in the onshore Waihapa-Ngaere Field, Taranaki Basin, being the only carbonate and fracture-producing reservoir within the basin. Core sample data from seven onshore wells
