Abstract:
This thesis explores the controls on carbonate platform formation in foreland basins through a study of the facies, and depositional architecture, of the Middle Eocene Guara Limestone Formation, from the External Sierras, Northern Spain. The Guara Limestone Formation formed in a ramp environment on the Iberian foreland margin of the South Pyrenean Foreland Basin. The facies are foraminifera and algal limestones, with minor shallow marine siliciclastics. A facies model has been erected indicating 19 facies, grouped into 6 facies associations.

A model for Wisconsinan glaciation and deglaciation of Hudson Bay is proposed based on depositional facies of the surficial sediments. These facies, defined on the basis of texture, composition, and acoustic character, indicate that sediment distribution is controlled primarily by Late Wisconsin glaciation. Post-glacial sedimentation is restricted to the shallow marine environment (100m deep) and involves reworking of glacially-derived sediments by rivers and/or marine currents. Deposition due to sea-ice rafting is minor. Within the glacigenic sediments, dispersal trends of distinctive litholo

Initial mid-Jurassic rifting of the basin, marked by eruption of the Canelo Hills Volcanics, may have been complicated by sinistral strike-slip motion along the Mojave-Sonora megashear.
