The eogenetic karst of the Cambrian Longwangmiao Formation in the Yangtze Platform: Implications for the eustatic and stratigraphic correlations of Toyonian (Cambrian)
Abstract:To make a better understanding of the stratigraphic correlation and ocean processes during the transition from Series 2 to Series 3 in the Cambrian, this study investigated the characteristics and origin of the palaeokarst in the uppermost part of the Longwangmiao Formation (Toyonian) and established the carbon isotopic curves of the shallow‐water succession. Macroscopically, the palaeokarst features have been identified, including the exposed surface, karstic trough, discolouration, and breccia in the upper p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
