Bioestratinomic Classification and Genesis of Shell Beds (Coquinas) from the Santa Marta Formation (Upper Cretaceous) of James Ross Island, Antarctica
Abstract Shell beds, or coquinas, have a complex origin, limiting their utility in paleoecology. However, such accumulations can serve as crucial paleoenvironmental indicators, since their bioestratinomic and diagenetic properties explain the physical-chemical and biological processes of their forma...
