Belt Series of the North: Stratigraphy, Sedimentation, Paleontology

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1937
INTRODUCTION The writers9 study of the Belt series began in 1927 and was continued in 1928 and 1932. Field work was virtually completed in 1934, when a grant from the Geological Society of America financed twelve weeks in Glacier and Waterton Lakes national parks and visits to other Belt outcrops.

Thematic Set: Scaling in stratigraphic data series: implications for practical stratigraphy

First Break, 2010
Sedimentary layers are planiform, lenticular, generally composite, three-dimensional bodies, distinguished by their lithologies. They are mostly defined and logged in terms of their thickness. This parameter relates non-linearly to time, since it is the outcome of both deposition (at various instantaneous rates) and erosion, which jointly influence the

Ordovician series and stages in Chinese stratigraphy: steps toward a global usage

Alcheringa: An Australasian Journal of Palaeontology, 2001
The first Chinese Ordovician series was erected by Lee & Chao (1924). Since then, many regional Ordovician series and stage names have been established and mostly published in Chinese. The present study is a review of these regional units with a discussion of their definitions and correlation to the international standard. Among them, the Ichang series,

STRATIGRAPHY OF OCOEE SERIES, GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS, TENNESSEE AND NORTH CAROLINA

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1958
Much of the Great Smoky Mountains, which span the boundary between Tennessee and North Carolina, is formed of the Ocoee series, of later Precambrian age. This is a body of terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks, which has minor intercalations of limestone and dolomite but no volcanic components or known fossils.

THE STRATIGRAPHY OF THE KEUPER SERIES IN SOUTHERN NOTTINGHAMSHIRE

Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society, 1961
Summary Some seventy-one shallow boreholes have been drilled in southern Nottinghamshire by the National Coal Board in recent years. These, together with earlier borings and surface exposures, have provided new information on the Keuper succession, on faulting, and on the depth and distribution of the superficial solution zone, from which ...

Stratigraphy of Upper Cretaceous Series in Mississippi and Alabama

AAPG Bulletin, 1938
The Upper Cretaceous sediments of the eastern Gulf region crop out in a crescentic band around the southwestern end of the plunging Appalachian Highlands in a belt 500 miles long and up to 75 miles wide. Their maximum thickness is estimated to be about 2,300 feet.

Status of the Talladega series in southern Appalachian stratigraphy

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1936
THE TALLADEGA SERIES DISTRIBUTION The Talladega series has been traced by the writer from Alabama, where it is typically exposed, across northwest Georgia, into North Carolina and Tennessee. The series occupies a belt, trending northeast, 300 miles in length and 1 to 25 miles in width. The belt is separated in most places from the fossiliferous rocks

Correlations and Problems in Belt Series Stratigraphy, Northern Idaho and Western Montana

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1963
A continuous strip of geologic maps has recently been completed along the Idaho-Montana state line between Clark Fork, Idaho, and Superior, Montana. New stratigraphic and petrographic information provides the basis for stratigraphic correlations and for the interpretation of facies changes in this part of the basin of deposition of the Precambrian Belt
