The stratigraphy and palaeontology of the 'Keuper' Series of the central Midlands of England
Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1970A reappraisal of the stratigraphical status of the formations constituting the series traditionally termed 'Keuper' in central England is given, based on palaeontological and sedimentological evidence. The 'Keuper' Sandstone is a fluvial facies representing a sub-aerial deltaic environment and is of upper Scythian and Anisian age.

Stratigraphy of the Knife Lake series in the Kekequabic-Ogishkemuncie area, Minnesota
Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1939Detailed studies of the “Knife Lake series” in the Vermilion district of northeastern Minnesota in the vicinity of Kekequabic and Ogishkemuncie lakes reveal two series of continental sediments separated by an unconformity of considerable magnitude. The sediments of the Knife Lake series, in contrast to the Lower Huronian series of the south shore of ...

Sequence stratigraphy and micropaleontology of the Triassic series from the southern part of Tunisia
Journal of African Earth Sciences (and the Middle East), 1993Abstract The Triassic series in the southern part of Tunisia, only known from the oil exploration wells in the Kirchaou area (sandy series from Early Scythian to Ladinian) and in its Djeffara/Dahar-North outcrops (alternating series from Ladinian to Rhaetian) is now subdivided into 10 Depositional Sequences (DS) sensu Vail et al.

Sequence Stratigraphy of the Cambrian and Ordovician Series in the Illizi Basin (Algeria)
2014The Cambro–Ordovician sediments of the Southeast Saharan Platform show a facies evolution from continent to platform rather than from platform to basin and, for that reason, faciological stratigraphy (Homewood et al. 1992) has been applied. The genetic sequences are limited at their bases and tops by Maximum Flooding Surfaces (MFSs).

Revised stratigraphy of the Upper Cretaceous and Cenozoic series of Lebanon based on nannofossils
Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2010Abstract The aim of these investigations was to revise the geological map of Lebanon. Calcareous nannofossils were studied from a predominantly marly Senonian–Maastrichtian and Cenozoic series. About 900 spot samples were collected from exposed strata.

Thematic Set: Scaling in stratigraphic data series: implications for practical stratigraphy
First Break, 2010Sedimentary 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

Acta Geologica Sinica, 2011
Abstract:The Kungurian Stage is one of the three remaining stages of the Permian that is not yet defined at the base by a Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP). The candidate section at the Yuryuzan' River in the Urals yields few conodonts, and contains non‐marine sediments near the boundary. The search for a suitable, continuous marine succession

The Stratigraphy of the Siwalik Series in the Northern Potwar, Punjab, Pakistan
Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1951Summary Detailed mapping of the Jhamat area in the west and of the Soan syncline in the east forms the basis of revision of the stratigraphy of the Siwalik Series in the northern Potwar region. The succession is here affected by facies changes of regional significance :— 1.

Strontium isotope stratigraphy of the Comanchean Series in north Texas and southern Oklahoma
Geological Society of America Bulletin, 2003Pioneering studies in north Texas and adjacent Oklahoma played an important role in the paleontologic and stratigraphic development of the Cretaceous in North America. We have used the results from 135 strontium isotope analyses from fossils and rocks collected from 43 sites to define the "middle" Cretaceous path of seawater 8 7 Sr/ 8 6 Sr during ...

The stratigraphy and tectonics of the Manx Slate Series, Isle of Man
Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1963The geosynclinal sequence of the Manx Slate Series has been subdivided into eleven distinct formations with a thickness of about 25 000 ft. This thick sedimentary pile was deposited in the Caledonian geosyncline and is most probably all of Cambrian age. The stratigraphical positions of two thick sheets of slump-breccia have been established.
