Day 4
I.Seismic Imaging of Carbonate Platforms: biostromes vs bioherms, mounds vs reefs, atolls, build-ups, banks and platforms, identification of rimmed attached shelves, isolated platforms and ramps in seismic data, assigning Net:Gross values to different parts of carbonate platforms in seismic, effects of karstification and its seismic expression.
II. Integrating seismic interpretation with biostratigraphy: index fossils including planktonic and benthic foraminifera, calcareous nannoplankton, dinoflagellates, spores and pollen, the concept of ecostratigraphy, finger-printing and biosteering.
