Films for the Humanities and Sciences - Cretaceous Carbonate Platforms in England and Croatia

Cretaceous Carbonate Platforms in England and Croatia

This virtual field trip opens with a concise overview of global marine transgression in the Cretaceous sedimentary succession of the English Chiltern Hills and then shifts to the Istrian peninsula of Croatia to investigate the vast carbonate platform that developed there during that same period of prehistory. Some of the characteristic biota that generated the platform sediments are uncovered and the resulting deposits are examined in terms of sequence stratigraphy. Produced by the Open University.
