The Lower Cenomanian Bahariya Formation corresponds to a second-order depositional sequence that formed within a continental shelf setting under relatively low-rate conditions of positive accommodation (< 200 m during 3–6 My). This overall trend of base-level rise was interrupted by three episodes of base-level fall that resulted in the formation of third-order sequence boundaries. These boundaries are represented by subaerial unconformities (replaced or not by younger transgressive wave ravinement surfaces), and subdivide the Bahariya Formation into four third-order depositional sequences.

The construction of the sequence stratigraphic framework of the Bahariya Formation is based on the lateral and vertical changes between shelf, subtidal, coastal and fluvial facies, as well as on the nature of contacts that separate them. The internal (third-order) sequence boundaries are associated with incised valleys, which explain (1) significant lateral changes in the thickness of incised valley fill deposits, (2) the absence of third-order highstand and even transgressive systems tracts in particular areas, and (3) the abrupt facies shifts that may occur laterally over relatively short distances. Within each sequence, the concepts of lowstand, transgressive and highstand systems tracts are used to explain the observed lateral and vertical facies variability.

This case study demonstrates the usefulness of sequence stratigraphic analysis in understanding the architecture and stacking patterns of the preserved rock record, and helps to identify 13 stages in the history of base-level changes that marked the evolution of the Bahariya Oasis region during the Early Cenomanian.  相似文献

应用露头层序地层学基本原理和方法、结合碳酸盐岩微相、古生物学、成岩作用、沉积相和沉积事件等理论,对江油马角坝地区上石炭统碳酸盐岩地层进行了露头层序地层研究。研究表明,研究区晚石炭世为典型的陆表海沉积,地形平坦,地壳下降相对缓慢,海水较浅,沉积物界面与海平面接近,主体为碳酸盐岩开阔台地和浅滩沉积环境。水体主体深度为0~50m,为低幅高频低速的海平面变化。根据沉积层序界面的露头和镜下标志,共划分出7个三级层序,反映了研究区晚石炭世具有7次相对较大的海平面升降旋回。发育TST和HST,普遍缺失LST,局部CS难以识别。平均每个层序时限约为2.7Ma,并伴随着多次四级、五级乃至高频海平面变化,共同组成了研究区简单而复杂的碳酸盐岩地层格架。动力机制主要源于晚古生代冰川型全球海平面变化,其原因可能为晚古生代冰期(大洋水体积的周期型变化或大陆冰盖的增长和衰减)和风暴事件共同作用的结果,同时受到古地形、物源和沉积物供应量变化的制约。其中,CSQ1、CSQ3和CSQ4对应的海平面变化幅度较大,海平面变化速率主要为突发性的快递上升到缓慢下降或缓慢上升到相对下降的特点。CSQ2、CSQ5、CSQ6和CSQ7对应的海平面变化幅度不大,为缓慢上升和缓慢下降的特点。  相似文献

The late Barremian succession in the Agadir Basin of the Moroccan Western High Atlas represents wave-dominated deltaic deposits. The succession is represented by stacked thickening and coarsening upwards parasequences 5–15 m thick formed during fifth- or fourth-order regression and building a third-order highstand systems tract. Vertical facies transitions in parasequences reflect flooding followed by shoaling of diverse shelf environments ranging from offshore transition interbedded mudstones, siltstones and thin sandstones, lower shoreface/lower delta front hummocky bedforms to upper shoreface/upper delta front cross-bedded sandstones. The regional configuration reflects the progradation of wave-dominated deltas over an offshore setting. The maximum sea-level fall led to the development of a sequence boundary that is an unconformity. The subsequent early Aptian relative sea-level rise contributes to the development of an extensive conglomerate lagged transgressive surface of erosion. The latter and the sequence boundary are amalgamated forming a composite surface.  相似文献

The Middle Triassic–Lower Cretaceous (pre-Late Albian) succession of Arif El-Naga anticline comprises various distinctive facies and environments that are connected with eustatic relative sea-level changes, local/regional tectonism, variable sediment influx and base-level changes. It displays six unconformity-bounded depositional sequences. The Triassic deposits are divided into a lower clastic facies (early Middle Triassic sequence) and an upper carbonate unit (late Middle- and latest Middle/early Late Triassic sequences). The early Middle Triassic sequence consists of sandstone with shale/mudstone interbeds that formed under variable regimes, ranging from braided fluvial, lower shoreface to beach foreshore. The marine part of this sequence marks retrogradational and progradational parasequences of transgressive- and highstand systems tract deposits respectively. Deposition has taken place under warm semi-arid climate and a steady supply of clastics. The late Middle- and latest Middle/early Late Triassic sequences are carbonate facies developed on an extensive shallow marine shelf under dry-warm climate. The late Middle Triassic sequence includes retrogradational shallow subtidal oyster rudstone and progradational lower intertidal lime-mudstone parasequences that define the transgressive- and highstand systems tracts respectively. It terminates with upper intertidal oncolitic packstone with bored upper surface. The next latest Middle/early Late Triassic sequence is marked by lime-mudstone, packstone/grainstone and algal stromatolitic bindstone with minor shale/mudstone. These lower intertidal/shallow subtidal deposits of a transgressive-systems tract are followed upward by progradational highstand lower intertidal lime-mudstone deposits. The overlying Jurassic deposits encompass two different sequences. The Lower Jurassic sequence is made up of intercalating lower intertidal lime-mudstone and wave-dominated beach foreshore sandstone which formed during a short period of rising sea-level with a relative increase in clastic supply. The Middle-Upper Jurassic sequence is represented by cycles of cross-bedded sandstone topped with thin mudstone that accumulated by northerly flowing braided-streams accompanying regional uplift of the Arabo–Nubian shield. It is succeeded by another regressive fluvial sequence of Early Cretaceous age due to a major eustatic sea-level fall. The Lower Cretaceous sequence is dominated by sandy braided-river deposits with minor overbank fines and basal debris flow conglomerate.  相似文献

层序地层中的混合沉积作用及其控制因素   总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10  
简要介绍了硅质碎屑与碳酸盐混合沉积有关概念及混合沉积作用类型,分析了层序体系域中的混合沉积作用及其控制因素。总结认为,硅质碎屑与碳酸盐的混合沉积作用不仅发生在低水位体系域(LST),而且其它各体系域中也都有不同程度的混合沉积现象,但混合沉积作用方式有差别:LST主要为源区混合,陆棚边缘体系域(SMT)和高水位体系域(HST)晚期以间断混合及相混合占优,海浸体系域(TST)早期以间断混合为主。综合研究显示,准层序一级的海平面变化型式差异可能是导致层序体系域混合沉积作用的主要因素,其中,LST、SMT、晚期HST的混合沉积作用分别与准层序一级海平面变化的幅度、速率、位置和持续时间有关,TST则受控于物源供给;先期地形、气候变化(含碳酸盐生产速率影响)或多或少对体系域的混合沉积作用有影响。此外,某些情况下层序体系域的混合沉积作用可能会受到局部构造活动影响,而层序组或超层序内层序体系域的混合沉积作用强弱及其旋回性变化可以提供脉动性区域构造活动信息。  相似文献

贵州南部的泥盆系为一个大型的楔状体。从深水背景的广西南丹罗富剖面到古陆边缘的贵阳乌当剖面,泥盆系由13个层序变薄尖灭成5个层序,这是泥盆纪早期海侵尖灭与晚期海退尖灭的结果。研究区泥盆系由海侵碎屑岩岩系到清水台地碳酸盐岩岩系地层序列构成2个二级层序,又可进一步划分为13个三级层序。二级层序和三级层序均由其特殊的沉积相序列组成。研究区泥盆系层序地层划分和层序地层格架的建立提供了一个在年代地层与海平面变化框架内研究“相迁移”的良好实例。  相似文献

石炭系卡拉沙依组作为塔河油田碎屑岩领域主要产层之一,其沉积相类型及分布一直存在争议。本文通过井震结合,建立了该区的高精度层序地层格架。通过岩心观察,利用地震、测井、分析化验等资料,确定了沉积体系的类型,并开展了沉积相类型和展布的研究。研究表明,卡拉沙依组可划分为两个三级层序,其中层序CKLSQ1可划分为3个体系域,分别为低位体系域、海侵体系域和高位体系域;层序CKLSQ2可划分为两个体系域,分别为海侵体系域和高位体系域。沉积相为三角洲和潮坪相交互沉积,其中北部以三角洲相为主,南部盐上区以潮坪相为主,中部的盐边区为两者的过渡带。该认识为目的层段窄薄砂体的预测和精确刻画提供了地质依据。  相似文献

Upper Carboniferous to Lower Permian sedimentary rocks extend along the periphery of the northern Sydney Basin, a sub‐basin of the Sydney‐Gunnedah‐Bowen Basin complex. The basin contains basal basalts and volcanic sediments deposited in a nascent rift zone. This rift zone was created through crustal thinning during trench rollback on the eastern edge of the New England Orogen. Thermal subsidence created accommodation for predominantly marine Dalwood Group sediments. Clastic sedimentation then occurred in the Maitland‐Cessnock‐Greta Coalfield and Cranky Corner Basin during the Early Permian. This occurred on a broad shelf undergoing renewed thermal subsidence on the margin of a rift flank of the Tamworth Belt of the southern New England Orogen. Braidplain fans prograded or aggraded in two depositional sequences. The first sequence commences near the top of the Farley Formation and includes part of the Greta Coal Measures, while the second sequence includes the majority of the Greta Coal Measures and basal Branxton Formation. Thin, areally restricted mires formed during interludes in a high sedimentation regime in the lowstand systems tracts. As base‐level rose, areally extensive mires developed on the transgressive surface of both sequences. A paludal to estuarine facies changed to a shallow‐marine facies as the braidplain was transgressed. The transgressive systems tracts continued to develop with rising relative sea‐level. Renewed uplift in the hinterland resulted in the erosion of part of the transgressive systems tract and all of the highstand systems tract of the lower sequence. In the upper sequence a reduction in relative sea‐level rise saw the development of a deltaic to nearshore shelf highstand systems tract. Extensional dynamics caused a fall in relative base‐level and the development of a sequence boundary in the Branxton Formation. Finally, renewed thermal subsidence created accommodation for the overlying, predominantly marine Maitland Group.  相似文献

前陆盆地层序地层学研究简介   总被引:14,自引:6,他引:14  
前陆盆地层序地层学是将层序地层学理论应用于构造活动的前陆盆地分析的一个特例。前陆盆地三级层序成因并非受全球统一的海平面变化控制,而是与盆缘造山带区域本报特约记者运动、盆内沉积作用和相对海平面变化的联合作用有关,代表了前陆分地一个成盆期的不同发育阶段。层序界面是相对海平面下降和区域构造隆的联合作用面。在盆地演化的不对称沉降阶充填阶段,邻造山带区为低水位浊积扇沉积层序;远离造山带区,低水位体系域不发育  相似文献
