Petrography and environmental controls on the formation of Phanerozoic marine carbonate hardgrounds
Early marine seafloor lithification of carbonate sediments leads to the formation of
hardgrounds and is known from rocks as old as the Proterozoic. Hardground surfaces …

Nonunique stratal geometries: Implications for sequence stratigraphic interpretations
PM Burgess, GD Prince - Basin Research, 2015 - earthdoc.org
There is now strong evidence that stratal geometries on basin margins are most likely a
consequence of multiple controls, not just variations in accommodation. Consequently …
