Sedimentary organic matter as a proficient tool for the palaeoenvironmental and palaeodepositional settings on Gondwana coal deposits

Abstract Palynofacies is based on the different types of dispersed/sedimentary organic matter (DOM/SOM) and has been used as a proficient proxy for palaeoclimatic reconstructions in sedimentary deposits various time spans. It also acknowledged an effective tool domains like sequence biostratigraphy, palyno-biostratigraphy, palaeodepositional history, identification depositional processes, oxic–anoxic environment, variations water depth. emerged analytical reconstruction, which could complement geophysical geochemical datasets. Since long palynofacies analysis exclusively applied marine sediments, it recently dragged attention many researchers significant parameter interpretation continental deposits. In last few decades, more consideration was focused that have become essential biostratigraphic other non-biostratigraphic fields due to its requirement petroleum industries. The present study provides basic idea dispersed characterization, methodology, interpretations, application with special emphasis Gondwana includes summary worldwide distribution especially settings through along parameters.
