Foraminifera and testate amoebae morphogroup analysis and biofacies of the Upper Cretaceous (Turonian) Ferron-Notom Delta, Utah, USA
Abstract
Morphogroup and biofacies analyses were conducted on strata of the Upper Cretaceous (Turonian) Ferron-Notom delta, Central Utah, USA. This study investigates associations between ancient deltaic environments and foraminiferal and testate amoebae assemblages with an assessment of their ecological zonation based on their extant Holocene counterparts. Sixty-six hand samples of mudstone were collected from the three outcrops (Caineville North, Blue …
