New insights into the stratigraphic setting of Paleozoic to Miocene deposits: case studies from the Persian Gulf, Peninsular Malaysia and south-eastern Pyrenees

the research themes studied in this book have been introduced referring to the palaeoecological and facies analysis techniques and methodologies, pertaining, in particular, an Oligo-Miocene carbonate succession of the Persian Gulf (Asmari Formation), the chemostratigraphy of Paleozoic carbonates of Peninsular Malaysia through the integration of stratigraphic, sedimentologic and geochemical data and the chronostratigraphy of a small ice-dammed palaeolake in Andorra, applying the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) analysis, resulting in 6th order stratigraphic cycles, which have outlined the occurrence of glacially-controlled system tracts and unconformities.
