准噶尔盆地四棵树剖面孢粉组合及三叠系-侏罗系界线

在实测四棵树剖面的基础上,详细研究了其孢粉组合特征,建立了5个孢粉组合:1)Cameratitriletes和Zonotriletes-Protopinus-Cycadopites组合,2)Cyatheaceae-Pinaceae-Cycadopites组合,3)Cyatheaceae-Pinaceae-Quadraeculina-Cycadopites组合,4)Cyatheaceae-Quadraeculina-Piceaepollenites组合和5)Cyatheaceae-Clas-sopollis-Pinaceae组合,分别产于上三叠统的小泉沟群、下侏罗统的八道湾组和三工河组、中侏罗统的西山窑组和头屯河组。根据孢粉组合特征,结合岩性和沉积及区域资料,将三叠系-侏罗系界线定于38层和39层之间。     

Stratigraphical correlation of the Late Jurassic Lourinhã Formation in the Consolação Sub‐basin (Lusitanian Basin), Portugal

The c. 700 m thick succession of continental–brackish‐marine deposits forming the Lourinhã Formation, cropping out along the coast of western Portugal between Baleal and Santa Cruz, has been correlated using laterally persistent shelly marker beds. Three shelly units record the episodic establishment of relatively short‐lived, brackish‐marine embayments, transgressing from the southwest, onto a low‐lying coastal plain. The succession displays systematic changes in facies types and stacking patterns reflecting differences in fluvial style, bedload character and palaeontological content. Based on these observations, four new members for the Lourinhã Formation are proposed: the Sáo Bernardino, Porto de Barças, Areia Branca and Ferrel members. New biostratigraphical data indicate that the Lourinhã Formation is Late Kimmeridgian to earliest Early Tithonian in age. This age has also been obtained from the underlying mixed carbonate and clastic deposits of the Abadia Formation at Consolação. As a result, these latter sediments are now re‐assigned to the Alcobaça Formation, a lithostratigraphical term currently in use in other areas of the Lusitanian Basin. Improved regional mapping of the Lourinhã Formation has established a new sub‐basin within the western parts of the Lusitanian Basin. This sub‐basin, now named the Consolação Sub‐basin, is bounded to the east by the Lourinhã–Caldas de Rainha (L–C) fault zone and to the west by the Berlengas Horst.
