Sedimentary Geochemistry and Paleoenvironments Project

Stratigraphic correlation of fine-grained successions is difficult with traditional techniques. Playter and colleagues demonstrated the effectiveness of chemostratigraphy in defining and correlating fine-grained clinoforms across a sedimentary basin.

Thanks to Dr. Tiffany Playter (Alberta Geological Survey) for providing the geological context information for samples from a sedimentological, stratigraphic, and geochemical study of the Triassic Montney Formation, Alberta and British Columbia.
