Learning Objectives

Students are expected to have a background on the principles of physical

stratigraphy, lithostratigraphy and biostratigraphy. The course focusses

on the integration of classic stratigraphic tools and more advanced

methods including cyclostratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy and

chemostratigraphy and their use for the purpose of straigraphic correlation. 

Program

-  Stratigraphy : definition and procedures

-  Classical stratigtraphic units; introduction to stratigraphic principles. Litostratigraphic units, magnetostratigraphic units, biostratigraphic units, chronostratigraphic and geochronoloical units.

-  The concept of Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP)

-  Principles of stratigraphic correlation

 

-  Chemostratigraphy

Introduction and definitions

Isotopic stratigraphy

Oxygen isotopes

Carbon isotopes

Strontium isotopes

Examples and case studies

 

-   Orbital cyclostratigraphy

Response of the climate system to orbital forcing

Orbital forcing and sedimentary environments

Identification of cyclical features
Introdution to spectral analysis of time series

Examples and case studies


- Methods of absolute dating
