Cyclostratigraphy of Late Cambrian cyclic carbonates: an interbasinal field and modelling study, U.S.A.

Abstract

An interbasinal study of Late Cambrian cyclic carbonate successions in the Appalachian and Cordilleran passive margins, the Texas cratonic embayment and the southern Oklahoma aulacogen has provided controls on the simultaneous development of peritidal to subtidal meter-scale cycles and the larger scale depositional sequences on which they are superimposed.
