The late Carboniferous–early Permian represents a key period in the Phanerozoic history, given major global geodynamic and climate modifications. aim of this work is to better understand context characteristics sedimentation recorded continental environments eastern equatorial Pangea at time, through example Autun Basin (northeastern Massif Central, France). contains historical stratotype Autun...

The Lithiotis facies represents an Early Jurassic global bioevent characterized by a remarkable spread of gregarious bivalves, which produced large sedimentary bodies in tropical shallow-water marine environments. most peculiar and common genera Lithiotis, Cochlearites Lithioperna, with aberrant extremely elongated or strongly flattened shells, have been studied since the second half nineteenth...

The Upper Triassic (Carnian–Norian) Martin Bridge Formation of northeastern Oregon, southeastern Washington, and western Idaho is characterized by rapidly shifting depositional processes within a tropical volcanic island arc setting. Martin Bridge sequences in the Hells Canyon and northern Wallowa Mountains document shallow-water peritidal evaporitic sediments that are succeeded by deeper and p...

Bioturbation long has been ‘blamed’ for eliminating late Proterozoic-style sedimentary structures and fabrics. While the presence of diverse and complex burrows in lowermost Cambrian strata is indisputable, analysis of Precambrian– Cambrian successions in southeast Newfoundland demonstrate that this burrowing style did not produce typical Phanerozoic-style ichnofabrics. Three hundred meters of ...
