Stratigraphy, sedimentology and palaeogeography of the high-tatric Triassic in the Tatra Mts.

Abstract

On the basis of lithologico-stratigraphic studies, confirmed by new faunal finds, Alpine stratigraphy has been established in the high-tatric Triassic and following stages distinguished: Seis, Campilian, Anisian, Ladinian, Carnian, Norian and Rhaetic. A description is given of the conditions of sedimentation, facial variability, and the palaeogeography of the high-tatric Triassic, as well as its relation to other palaeogeographo-structural units.
