Figure 33. A, Fifth-order(?) cycle variations within the Rockdale Run Formation at Stop 13. Left column shows limestone-dominated subcycles with interpreted sea-level curve (Hardie, 1989). Maximum water depth is during limestone deposition shallowing upward to peritidal conditions during dolomite deposition. Right column shows dolomite-dominated subcycles. B, Fifth-order(?) cycle variations within the Rockdale Run Formation at Stop 13. Left column shows limestone-dominated subcycles with re-interpreted sea-level curve based on exposure surfaces at the top of the limestone beds. Right column shows dolomite-dominated subcycles.
