Urgonian‐type carbonates are a characteristic feature of many late Early Cretaceous shallow‐marine, tropical and subtropical environments. The presence of typical photozoan carbonate‐producing communities including corals and rudists indicates the prevalence of warm, transparent and presumably oligotrophic conditions in a period otherwise characterized by the high density of globally occurring anoxic episodes. Of particular interest, therefore, is the exploration of relationships between Urgonian platform growth and palaeoceanographic change. In the French and Swiss Jura Mountains, the onset and evolution of the Urgonian platform have been controversially dated, and a correlation with other, better dated, successions is correspondingly difficult. It is for this reason that the stratigraphy and sedimentology of a series of recently exposed sections (Eclépens, Vaumarcus and Neuchâtel) and, in addition, the section of the Gorges de l’Areuse were analysed. Calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy, the evolution of phosphorus contents of bulk rock, a sequence‐stratigraphic interpretation and a correlation of drowning unconformities with better dated sections in the Helvetic Alps were used to constrain the age of the Urgonian platform. The sum of the data and field observations suggests the following evolution: during the Hauterivian, important outward and upward growth of a bioclastic and oolitic carbonate platform is documented in two sequences, separated by a phase of platform drowning during the late Early Hauterivian. Following these two phases of platform growth, a second drowning phase occurred during the latest Hauterivian and Early Barremian, which was accompanied by significant platform erosion and sediment reworking. The Late Barremian witnessed the renewed installation of a carbonate platform, which initiated with a phase of oolite production, and which progressively evolved into a typical Urgonian carbonate platform colonized by corals and rudists. This phase terminated at the latest in the middle Early Aptian, due to a further drowning event. The evolution of this particular platform segment is compatible with that of more distal and well‐dated segments of the same northern Tethyan platform preserved in the Helvetic zone of the Alps and in the northern subalpine chains (Chartreuse and Vercors).  相似文献

吉林中部志留─泥盆纪生物地层、群落生态及生物古地理     

廖卫华  戎嘉余  胡兆珣  彭玉鲸  李春田 《地层学杂志》1995,(4)

吉林省中部的二道沟组、小绥河组、张家屯组的时代归属，一直是国内、外地质学家争议的问题之一。根据无脊椎动物化石鉴定结果，张家屯组的时代为志留纪Ｌｕｄｌｏｗ晚期至Ｐｒｉｄｏｌｉ早期，小绥河组为志留纪末Ｐｒｉｄｏｌｉ期或泥盆纪初Ｌｏｃｈｋｏｖ期，二道沟组为早泥盆世Ｌｏｃｈｋｏｖ早期。根据上述地层中珊瑚和腕足动物化石，推测它们当时是生活在正常浅海的生活环境中，大致相当于底栖组合ＢＡ３。我国东北地区中古生代存在着两个不同的动物地理区：华北地台北缘产Ｒｅｔｚｉｅｌｌａ腕足动物群和Ｃａｒｌｉｎａｓｔｒａｅａ珊瑚动物群，吉林中部就位于这一个动物地理区范围之内；西伯利亚地台南缘产Ｔｕｖａｅｌｌａ腕足动物群。  相似文献

胡艳霞  徐东来  童金南 《地层学杂志》2006,30(2):T0001-T0002

贵州紫云四大寨剖面下三叠统发育较齐全,化石较丰富。在此剖面上发现了大量牙形石、双壳类、菊石等生物化石,其中牙形石在该剖面上为首次发现,并识别出了早三叠世Neospathodusdieneri带、Neospathoduscrista-galli带、Neospathoduswaageni带和Neospathodushomeri-Neospathodustriangularis带的重要牙形石分子或带化石,可与国际同期地层中相应的牙形石化石带进行较好的对比;同时还发现了Claraiagriesbachi-C.concentrica组合和Claraiastachei-Claraiaaurita组合带的双壳类代表性分子。通过对这些化石综合分析,大致拟定了本剖面下三叠统格里斯巴赫亚阶(Griesbachian)、亭纳尔亚阶(Dienerian)、斯密斯亚阶(Smithian)和斯派斯亚阶(Spathian)的年代地层单位界线。  相似文献

Conodont colour alteration indices (CAI) of Upper Ordovician limestones from the Iberian Peninsula     

Sarmiento  Graciela N.  García-lópez  Susana  Bastida  Fernando 《Geologie en Mijnbouw》1998,77(1):77-91

Conodont colour alteration index (CAI) data in Upper Ordovician rocks from several areas of the Variscan domain in the Iberian Peninsula indicate conditions ranging from diagenesis to low-grade metamorphism. In most of the areas, where studies using other indicators, such as illite crystallinity (IC) or where vitrinite reflectance are lacking, the CAI method has permitted a preliminary estimation of the metamorphic grade. In the Almadén syncline (Central-Iberian Zone), where IC studies are available, the thermal conditions inferred from CAI data agree with those obtained by the IC method. In the Puertollano–Almuradiel syncline, the thermal interval obtained primarily from fluid inclusions (270–370°C) overlaps considerably with that obtained from CAI data (180–340°C). In general, cleavage in rocks is present in anchizonal or epizonal conditions, whereas in diagenetic conditions with CAI 2.5, cleavage is scarce. The conodont texture changes with increasing metamorphism, and apatite recrystallisation appears in general with CAI 5. Variation of CAI values within a single sample and/or within short stratigraphic distances observed at several localities is due to hydrothermal activity.  相似文献
