Paraseqences in the Kotroman Formation, Western Serbia
2011
Banjac Nenad | Jovanović Divna
An attempt was made to describe two parasequences separated within the sediments of the Kotroman Formation at the Mokra Gora Village in western Serbia. The whole formation, of Albian-Cenomanian age, in some general characteristics corresponds to tidal flats, some of which were described in the literature (LARSONNEUR 1975), and the sediments were compared with ones from recent tidal flat environments. The heterogeneous composition of the Kotroman Formation influenced different authors to describe several non-synchronous and incomparable superpositioned packages. The parasequences were investigated in the attempt to correlate them with the stratigraphic age of the members. The parasequences were formed during the Albian transgression and represent a gradual deepening of the wider area. Well-developed flooding surfaces with significant deepening indicated retrogradational stacking of certain transgressive system tracts and reflect landward movement of the shoreline, indicating a gradual sea level rise.
