Oscilaciones eustáticas de alta frecuencia en el Neógeno superior de Sorbas (Almería, sureste de España)

Abstract

A brief description of detail stratigraphy of the Late-Neogene Terminal Carbonate Complex and the Sorbas Member, and the precise role of the stromatolite layers that occur interbedded. The vicinity to the sources of coarse-gained sediment imput, mobility of the sea-bottom, and the topographic elevation reached by the sea during high stands of 4th/5th order oscillations control the development of stromatolites. Recognition of high-frequency (fourth and fifth-order cycles) inside a third-order (TB 3.4) eustatic cycle.
