Integrated sedimentological, palynological, and palynofacies analyses of the Arrifes section in central Algarve Basin (southern Portugal) provided new information on age environments this Lower Cretaceous sequence. The sedimentary succession at consists fossiliferous interbedded limestones, marly marls, dated as latest Hauterivian to late Barremian (Lower Cretaceous) based key dinoflagellate ta...
