New advances in the stratigraphy of Aptian oceanic anoxic events (Castro Urdiales, Basque-Cantabrian Basin, Spain)
The Aptian sedimentary deposits of the Castro Urdiales area in north Spain record an episode of disoxia/anoxia which postdates Oceanic Anoxic Event 1a (OAE 1a). Carbonate platform and overlying facies are analysed for stratigraphy, sedimentology, total organic carbon and carbon isotopes. Lower Aptia...
