什么是 Parasequence and flooding surface?

又称: parasequence · flooding surface

Definition 16.8 University Earth and Space Sciences — Year 3 · 第 16 章 — Sequence Stratigraphy

A parasequence is a relatively conformable succession of genetically related beds bounded by flooding surfaces, in which the water shallows upward: on a wave-dominated coast, offshore mud passes up into lower and upper shoreface sand and beach. A flooding surface is a surface across which deeper-water facies abruptly overlie shallower ones, with evidence of a sudden deepening.

Three parasequences stacked three ways, drawn as grain-size logs (width to the right means coarser). Each parasequence coarsens upward from offshore mud to shoreface sand and ends at a flooding surface (FS); the top of each is coarser than the one below when the stack progrades, the same when it aggrades, finer when it retrogrades.
