Trends in relative sea-level change, shown by curves drawn from drill core and outcrop sections in Llandoverian carbonates of the Hudson Bay Platform, were used to correlate individual parasequences among widely separated localities.

Initial onlap of marine facies at the base of the Severn River Formation progressed from north to south, occurring first in the Hudson Bay Basin, then in the Moose River Basin; final retreat of the seas

Abstract:
Sequence stratigraphy relates changes in vertical and lateral facies distribution to relative changes in sea level. These relative changes in carbonates effect early diagenesis, types of pores, cementation and dissolution patterns. As a result, in carbonates, relative changes in sea level significantly impact the lithology, porosity, diagenesis, bed and bounding surfaces which are all factors that control fracture patterns. This study explores these relationships by integrating stratigraphy with fracture analysis and petrophysical properties. A special focus is given to the relationship betwee

Abstract:
THE PARADOX Basin is a northwest-southeast trending intracratonic basin that formedin southwestern Colorado, southeastern Utah and adjacent parts of Arizona and New Mexicoduring the late Paleozoic Era. During rise of the adjacent Uncompahgre Uplift (Ancestral RockyMountains) the rapidly subsiding basin was filled with over 2000 m of Permo-Pennsylvaniansediments. Stacked depositional sequences accumulated in three roughly parallel facies belts: anortheastern clastic belt (adjacent to uplift), a central salt and black shale belt, and asouthwestern carbonate belt. Over 400 million barrels of oil

Abstract:
The lower Cretaceous (Aptian to Albian) CLearwater Formation at Cold Lake, Alberta contains a complex assemblage of silicicastic strata. On the basis of detailed core analyses, Clearwater Formation strata have been subdivided into eight lithofacies and six recurring, facies associations. These facies associations are: (1) Tidal bar, (2) Sand flat, (3) Tidal-fluvial channel, (4) Fluvial channel, (5) Shoreface to foreshore, and (6) Offshore. Correlation of the facies associations and their bounding time-significant surfaces has led to the interpretation that Clearwater Formation strata are marin
