Cycles and events in stratigraphy
TL;DR: The most up-to-date knowledge in the fields of cyclostratigraphy and event stratigraphy can be found in the field of sedimentary geology as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bathymetry of trace fossils
TL;DR: In this paper, a behavioural response to a bathymetric gradient in food suply is suggested as the main reason for the change of trace fossils with depth, and actual depth figures can now be added from counterparts in the present oceans.
Book
Trace Fossil Analysis
TL;DR: Vertebrate Trackways, trilobite burrows, arthropod tunnel systems, resting traces, and worms of wormlike bulldozers have been identified as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomat-related lifestyles in the Precambrian
TL;DR: In this article, the authors assume that otherwise soft sediments were sealed by firm and erosion-resistant biomats, which allowed "mat encrusters" (vendobionts; trilobozoan and other sponges) to get attached to sandy bottoms, and molluscan "mat scratchers" to scrape off an algal film, as if they were living on rocks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fault‐graded beds interpreted as seismites
TL;DR: Fault grading is expressed by a regular structural sequence of (from top) liquified zone, rubble zone and step-faulted zone, with gradational contacts between these zones and the bottom, but with a sharp boundary at the top as discussed by the authors.
