Biostratigraphy and paleoecology of Cretaceous rocks based on calcareous nannofossil in Sarayan section, East Iran
Calcareous nannofossil assemblages recovered from a long, continuous section have been described from the Sarayan region in Lut Block in east Iran. The marine Upper Cretaceous sediments of this section yield medium diverse and well-preserved calcareous nannofossil assemblages. A structural analysis of Upper Cretaceous calcareous nannofloras has revealed 30 nannofossil species. A revised zonatio...
متن کاملCretaceous Western Interior Seaway Drilling Project: an Overview
The Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway Drilling Project was begun in 1991 under the auspices of the U.S. Continental Scientific Drilling Program. It was intended to be a multidisciplinary study of Cretaceous carbonate and silicicl.tic rocks in cores from bore holes along a transect across the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway. The study focuses on middle Cretaceous (Cenomanian to Campanian) st...

متن کاملPaleoecology of Neotethys Ocean Calcareous Nannofossils in Baghamshah Formation (Rizu Section)
In this research, paleoecology of Baghmashah Formation in Rizu section based on calcareous nannoplanktons has been investigated. Baghmashah Formation is part of the Mago sedimentary mega sequence in the Tabas block that was located in the northern margin of the Neotethys Ocean in Jurassic-Cretaceous. The Baghmshah Formation in this section with 270m thickness mainly includes the alternation of...
متن کاملBiostratigraphy and paleoecology of Paleogen rocks based on calcareous nannofossil in Kafaz section, east Iran
In this study, the assemblage of calcareous nannofossils has been investigated in long and continuous deposits from a Kafaz section in Eastern Iran. A systematic study of calcareous nannofossils has indicated 39 nannofossils species. In order to the age determination of Kafaz's deposits, a revised zonation for the Eocene is used. Based on it, the Early-Middle Eocene deposits of Kafaz section is...
