A core drilling at Röstånga in 1997, referred to as Röstånga 1, penetrated a significant portion of the Upper Ordovician-Lower Silurian succession in this classical Lower Palaeozoic outcrop area in W central Scania. In descending order the Upper Ordovician of the core embraces the following units (stratigraphic thickness in parenthesis): Lindegård Mudstone (27.8 m), Fjäcka Shale (13.6 m), Mossen Formation (0.6 m), Skagen Formation (0.8 m), and Sularp Formation (19.9 m+). Graptolites are described from the Lindegård Mudstone, the Fjäcka Shale, and the Mossen Formation. The graptolites are class

AbstractFourteen early Ordovician (Tremadoc-Llandeilo) graptolite sequences from around the world are precisely (infrazonally) correlated, based on the stratigraphic ranges of 130 species and species groups. The composite standard sequence (CSS) of graptolites has been determined from the six best regional sequences by a nonparametric graphic correlation. Two data sets were selected: one comprised first appearance events of 103 taxa, the other, first and last appearance events of 45 taxa.

The breccia lens formed under dry-hot conditions after expulsion of sea-water by the impact. Resurging sea-water thereupon deposited a positively graded, 60 m thick turbidite-like unit.

AbstractThe development of techniques for quantitative stratigraphic correlation has tended to outstrip their acceptance by practising stratigraphers. To make these techniques more readily accessible and to encourage their use, this paper presents a brief, general review of the problem of quantitative stratigraphic correlation and then shows how, using a natural framework for stratigraphic correlation, the stratigraphic time-series, there can be seen an orderly pattern among them. The annotated bibliography, of almost 400 articles, includes a majority of those references concerned with quantit

AbstractSections exposing the Cambrian–Ordovician Boundary interval at Broom Point in western Newfoundland have been proposed earlier for a global systemic boundary stratotype. These lie within the Cow Head Group, a late Middle Cambrian to early Middle Ordovician allochthonous unit of limestone, shale, and conglomerate deposited at the toe of the ancient continental slope and on the adjacent continental rise. Several recent studies have further investigated the stratigraphy, sedimentology, and palaeontology of the Cow Head Group and others are under way on magnetostratigraphy and chemostratigr

Abstract:
The Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for Stage 2 of the Ordovician System, now the Floian Stage and approximately equivalent to the lower and middle Arenig of England and Wales, is defined by the first appearance datum (FAD) of the graptolite Tetragraptus approximatus in the Diabasbrottet Quarry section at Mount Hunneberg, Sweden. One of the issues this raises is how to correlate the base of Stage 2 at the GSSP with areas and successions that do not contain a correlative graptolite fauna.

The most complete Lower Llandovery succession of mudrocks yielding graptolites within the ascensus, acuminatus and vesiculosus Biozones was studied in the Billegrav-1 core, South Bornholm. Special attention is given to the taxonomy and stratigraphical ranges of monograptids found in the vesiculosus Biozone in the core and nearby exposures in Øle Å. Monograptids of the ascensus-acuminatus and vesiculosus Biozones were also discovered in condensed carbonaceous shale sequences of the Sakmara Formation in the southern Urals.

Recent biostratigraphic studies on the western argentine Puna recorded the Middle Ordovician conodont Baltoniodus cf. B. navis (Lindström) for first time, related to key graptolite taxa of the Central Andean Basin. The analyzed material comes from the lower and middle thirds of the turbidite succession exposed at the Huaytiquina section, Salta Province, which was previously assigned to the “Coquena” Formation. The conodont fauna was recovered from the calcareous sandstone beds intercalated in the middle portion of this unit, and it is composed by species of the genera Baltoniodus, Gothodus, Tr

Abstract:
Morphotype ratios among planktonic foraminifers are used as a stratigraphic tool within the Cerithium Limestone, part of the lowermost Danian type sequence at Stevns Klint, Denmark. Enhanced stratigraphic resolution provided by the method indicates that the base of the limestone is diachronous, becoming progressively younger northwards. The bivalve fauna of the Cerithium Limestone represents an early recovery fauna exhibiting a gradual recovery pattern from zero species at the stratigraphic base of the limestone to a rather constant level about 20 species through the upper half of the unit.

ABSTRACT There is a significant difference between the average sedimentation rate of a lengthy stratigraphic section spanning many millions of years, and the rate that can be calculated from any short segment within such a section, such segments typically yielding rates several orders of magnitude more rapid than the overall rate. Stratigraphic successions contain numerous surfaces of nondeposition and erosion representing time spans from minutes to many millions of years, which collectively may account for as much as 90% of the total elapsed time that the succession represents.

AbstractSeveral rock stratigraphic successions, metamorphosed and non-metamorphosed, are found to be similar and/or identical with each other across the so-called ‘Main Zagros Thrust’. Stratigraphic successions form thin allochthonous sheets carried from northeast to southwest by numerous low-angle thrust faults of either ductile to brittle-ductile type or brittle type. Similarities in lithic and faunal characteristics of the stratigraphic units and in the style of structural deformation across the ‘Main Zagros Thrust’ imply that either the suture between the Afro-Arabian and Iranian lithosphe
