Magnetostratigraphic calibration of early Eocene depositional sequences in the southern North Sea Basin

Recently acquired Ypresian stratigraphic data are integrated with previously published data, and a high-resolution "event-stratigraphy' is developed for the Ypresian deposits of the southern margin of the North Sea Basin. A total of 10 depositional sequences ("cycles') probably reflecting eustatic sea-level changes, are calibrated against this framework. An attempt is made to match these sequences, which represent a combination of third and fourth order cycles in the Exxon Model, with published sea-level cycle charts for the Early Eocene. -from Authorslink_to_subscribed_fulltex
