Facies variations in response to tectonic evolution, climate and sea-level changes since the Late Cretaceous in Wuhu region, Eastern China

Eastern China has a complex environmental dynamics system in the western Pacific tectonic domain, and study of its sedimentary records controlled by movements is distinctly significant for exploring sea-land interactions, global climate change sea level fluctuations. A reliable OSL (Optically Stimulated Luminescence) chronostratigraphic framework was established based on systematic investigation stratigraphic lithology boreholes Wuhu area, China, depositional environment since Late Cretaceous reconstructed multiple proxies.

Since Middle Pleistocene, temperature trends were split into six stages, four which (MIS 6, 4, 3 2) can be categorized as periods decline, with MIS 1 being period increase.
