Discussion on Some Problems Relating to Sedimentology and Stratigraphy

Su Dechen; Mei Mingxiang

Abstract

Relations between sedimentology and stratigraphy, sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy and cyclostratigraphy are discussed with the principles of sedimentology being highly emphasized. Four types of equence boundaries are recognized. Hence, a sequence is defined as a series of genetically closely related sedimentary rocks formed in a longterm (third-or forth-order) transgrassive-regrassive cycle. Any rock surface between two different lithofacies which represent two slow long-term different transgrassive-regrassive cycles can be regarded as the sequence boundary. Sequence, stratigraphy, cyclostratigraphy, lithostratigraphy, biostratigraphy and etc. must be crossreferred.
