Carbon- and oxygen-isotope ratios are commonly used to correlate shallow- and deep-marine successions. Carbon- and oxygen-isotope analyses were performed on bulk-carbonate samples from two Kimmeridgian sections of the Swiss Jura platform in order to correlate them with biostratigraphically well-dated coeval sections in the adjacent basin. On the platform, a general decrease in δ¹³C and...

During the Late Jurassic, accelerated ocean-floor spreading and associated sea-level rise were responsible for a worldwide transgression, which reached its maximum in the Late Kimmeridgian. In many Western European basins, this major sea-level rise led to the formation of marly and condensed sections. In the Swiss Jura, however, a shallow carbonate platform kept growing and only subtle changes in...

A detailed sedimentological, sequential and cyclostratigraphic interpretation of the Kimmeridgian in the Swiss Jura defines the principal factors which control the different stages in the development of a shallow-water carbonate platform. A comparative study in the Vocontian Basin reveals their impact on hemipelagic and pelagic sedimentation. The sedimentary facies of three platform sections –...
