Red-stained platform facies are a common feature of many carbonate settings throughout the geological record. Although the mechanisms involved in red staining of subaerially exposed or argillaceous, peri-platform limestones are reasonably well understood, the environmental and oceanographic significance of red carbonates often remains uncertain. Here, sedimentological, sequence stratigraphic,...
