  • Carbonate Platform Slopes — A Record of Changing Conditions

    The Pliocene of the Bahamas

    by Hildegard Westphal ...
    Series Book 75 - Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences
    Periplatform slope sediments from the Bahamas serve as an example for a small-scale sedimentologic record of environmental changes. Carbonate platforms react sensitively to sea-level fluctuations. Therefore, sediments deposited on the slope during lowstands differ in composition from highstand deposits. A second focus is the early diagenetic alteration and cementation of these sediments with their ... Read more
