Sequence stratigraphy is a methodology that employs stratal stacking patterns and key bounding surfaces to erect a framework allowing depositional facies to mapped and interpreted paleogeographically. Historically, sequence stratigraphy has been focused on allogenically induced changes such as eustasy, tectonics, and climate.

Sequence stratigraphy of the Precambrian
Gondwana Research, 2007Abstract The method of sequence stratigraphy requires the application of the same workflow and principles irrespective of the age of strata under analysis. In that respect, its application to Precambrian successions is similar to the approach used for Phanerozoic case studies.

Tectonics and seismic sequence stratigraphy [PDF]
Journal of the Geological Society, 1991 A two day meeting convened by Graham Williams (University of Keele) and Angela Dobb (Mobil North Sea Ltd) was held at the Geological Society in London on 6 and 7 February 1991. The aim of the meeting was to address the problems of the interaction between eustacy, sediment supply rate and tectonics in seismically imaged

The Permian System contains a great number and diversity of depositional sequences (Fig. 1) which illustrate sedimentary responses to a series of sealevel fluctuations. These sea-level fluctuations had many different amplitudes and durations, and were accompanied by a wide spectrum of rates of deposition (Fig. 2).

Stratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy of the Moscovian in the Donets basin
Tectonophysics, 1996New results are presented on the stratigraphy based on Fusulinids and Palynomorphs and the sequence stratigraphy of the Moscovian in the Donets basin. They have been developed by comparison of our observations on cross-sections near Artemovsk and the published coal mine logs of Artemovsk Geological Survey.

Carbonate Sequence Stratigraphy
1988Abstract Derived from the 1991 Research Symposium on Carbonate Sequence Stratigraphy, the authors have brought together in one volume a representative sampling of pivotal research in this important topic. Its three sections describe (1) sequence concepts and sedimentologic principles, (2) seismic sequence case studies involving seismic ...

Arenite Petrography in Sequence Stratigraphy
The Journal of Geology, 1995Stratigraphic boundary surfaces and internal anatomy of unconformity-bounded units may be deciphered by using properly conceived petrography that identifies compositional, spatial, and temporal characteristics of sand grains. Discussion of two case studies of synorogenic deep marine successions indicates the potential of this method.

Glaciodynamic sequence stratigraphy
Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2012Abstract The glaciofluvial deposits are by volume and permeability the most important unit in the terrestrial glacial successions, and they are the obvious target for groundwater as well as hydrocarbon reservoir exploration. The dominant glaciofluvial units are related to the proglacial setting in the foreland of an advancing ice margin ...

One of the features of the existing geological time scale about which Vail et al. (1977) expressed concern is that “the boundaries of the global cycles in several cases do not match the standard epoch and period boundaries.” The cycles in the Exxon global cycle chart are bounded by unconformities, and traditional stratigraphic methods also made use of ...

Sequence stratigraphy of carbonate rocks
The Leading Edge, 1999In the first contribution to TLE’s Geologic Column, J. M. Mulholland concluded that “sequence stratigraphy … is a tool that every explorationist must master.” I agree. In fact, sequence stratigraphy is more than a versatile tool in exploration and production geology. It is in many ways a role model for applied earth sciences.
