Stratigraphy of the Fluvial-To-Marine Transition Zone Associated With A Forced-Regressive Compound Incised-Valley System In the Turonian Ferron Notom Delta, Utah, U.S.A.

This paper examines facies and stratigraphic relationships at the tip-out of a sequence boundary along the fluvial-to-marine transition zone of the Cretaceous Ferron Notom delta, Utah. Correlation of 11 measured sections shows that the sequence boundary underlies amalgamated fluvial deposits in more proximal parts of the valley, whereas the valley fill splits into a pair of fluvial channel facies separated by transgressive shoreface deposits in …
