In Grünbach-Neue Welt (Lower Austria), the Campanian portion of Gosau Group is exposed along boundary between Northern Calcareous Alps and Vienna Basin, including Grünbach Formation Campanian) Piesting (Upper Campanian). The paleoenvironment exhibits transitions from terrestrial to shallow marine settings, driven primarily by subsidence relative sea-level fluctuations. However, detailed processes governing this depositional environment transition have not been thoroughly...
The Gosau Group is a terrestrial to deep-water succession formed on the northern margin of Austroalpine microplate during early stages Alpine orogenesis. sedimentary characteristics reflect paleoenvironment Northern Calcareous Alps from Late Cretaceous Eocene. It has been divided into Upper Subgroup and Lower based facies. indicates transitional environment shallow water. subdivided Subgroup, composed fluvial, lacustrine marine sediments Turonian Santonian-Campanian, characterized by up...
<p>Climate-controlled sea-level rise and fall have important effects on the depositional processes of strata. During periods widespread glaciation, climate cycles influence by controlling ice sheet growth melting. The Late Cretaceous period was characterized a typical greenhouse climate, evidence for presence is strongly debated. However, sedimentary record shows short-term larger fluctuations, there growing aquifer-eustasy (Sames et al. 2020) as an additional mechanism during...
