Sequence stratigraphy is the study of sediments and sedimentary rocks in terms of repetitively arranged facies and associated stratal geometry (Vail 1987; Van Wagoner et al 1988, 1990; Christie-Blick 1991). It is a technique that can be traced back to the work of Sloss et al (1949), Sloss (1950, 1963), and Wheeler (1958) on interregional unconformities of the North American craton, but it becam...

The Upper Cretaceous strata were studied in a composite stratigraphic section named here Padeha-Baghak section in east of Koppeh-Dagh basin, north east of Iran. In this study, palynostratigraphy, palynofacies and depositional environment history of Abderaz Formation were integrated with sequence stratigraphy. Determination of sea level history and sequence units of the Abderaz Formation using s...

this study is focused on the biostratigraphy, sedimentary environments, facies distribution, and sequence stratigraphy of the coniacian–santonian sediments of tange-bulfaris section. five assemblage zones have been recognized by distribution of the foraminifera in the study area. assemblage zone 1(chara ostracods zone) is coniacian in age and occurs in the lower part of the succession. assembla...
