Integrated bio- and cyclostratigraphy of Middle Triassic (Anisian) ramp deposits, NW Bulgaria

Ajdanlijsky, George ; Strasser, André ; Götz, Annette E.

In: Geologica Carpathica, 2019, vol. 70, no. 4, p. 325–354

A cyclostratigraphic interpretation of peritidal to shallow-marine ramp deposits of the early Middle Triassic (Anisian) Opletnya Member exposed in outcrops along the Iskar River gorge, NW Bulgaria, is presented. Based on facies trends and bounding surfaces, depositional sequences of several orders can be identified. New biostratigraphic data provide a time frame of the studied succession with...

The early to middle triassic continental–marine transition of NW Bulgaria: sedimentology, palynology and sequence stratigraphy

Ajdanlijsky, George ; Götz, Annette E. ; Strasser, André

In: Geologica Carpathica, 2018, vol. 69, no. 2, p. 129–148

Sedimentary facies and cycles of the Triassic continental–marine transition of NW Bulgaria are documented in detail from reference sections along the Iskar river gorge between the villages of Tserovo and Opletnya. The depositional environments evolved from anastomosing and meandering river systems in the Petrohan Terrigenous Group to mixed fluvial and tidal settings in the Svidol Formation,...

The stratigraphic architecture and evolution of the Burdigalian carbonate—siliciclastic sedimentary systems of the Mut Basin, Turkey

Bassant, P. ; Buchem, F.S.P. van ; Strasser, André ; Görür, N.

In: Sedimentary Geology, 2005, vol. 1-4(3), p. 187

This study describes the coeval development of the depositional environments in three areas across the Mut Basin (Southern Turkey) throughout the Late Burdigalian (early Miocene). Antecedent topography and rapid high-amplitude sea-level change are the main controlling factors on stratigraphic architecture and sediment type. Stratigraphic evidence is observed for two high-amplitude (100–150 m)...

The high-resolution stratigraphic architecture and evolution of the Burdigalian carbonate-siliciclastic sedimentary systems of the Mut Basin, Turkey

Bassant, Philip ; Strasser, Andreas (Dir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Université de Fribourg, 1999 ; no 1256.

The factors influencing the production and deposition of carbonate sediments are known. These are namely accommodation variations (eustasy and tectonics), siliciclastic sediment input, environmental changes (temperature, salinity, trophic level), nature of the producing ecologies, and the hydrodynamic regime. However, the manner in which these factors integrate through time to produce the...

Paléoécologie et paléoclimats de la molasse du Jura (oligo-miocène) : apport des Rhinocerotoidea (Mammalia) et des minéraux argileux

Becker, Damien ; Berger, Jean-Pierre (Dir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Université de Fribourg, 2003 ; no 1416.

The Jura Molasse, in which most remains of the studied Rhinocerotoidea remains were found, constitutes a well preserved distal part of the Molasse Basin. This sedimentary series covered a major part of the Jura chain during the Oligocene and Miocene. Today, it is only sporadically found trapped in valleys or preserved in karst fillings. During the Oligo-Miocene period, the Jura region was...
