Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract |
The whole succession provided a rich palaeontological material which allows to establish vertical distribution charts thanks to numerous collectings of macrofossils and close sampling for microfossils( with a 1 to 6 metre-spacing as necessary). About Ammonites, a lot of species are mentionned for the first time. Moreover, the following zones or intervals are identified: Prionocyclus germari, Barroisiceras cf. tunetanum, Para-and Protexanites, Texanites, Nostoceras (Bostrychoceras) polyplocum, N.(N.) hyatti, N.(N.) alternatum. Besides, nine ecoevents are demonstrated. Seven Inoceramid species are determined, taking into account for the first time the international literature. With regard to Foraminifera, 8 international planktonic zones and 15 regional zones are identified from washed samples as well as in thin sections and vertical distribution of about ten main Foraminifera bioevents is given. The microfacies show fluctuation of r and K species, probably linked to eustatic variations of the sea-level. Relatively to the calcareous Nannofossils, the zones CC 13 to CC 26 considered to have a global value are all characterised. The whole of biostratigraphic data supports the placement of the boundaries from Turonian up to Maastrichtian and a discussion is presented with a comparison to the recommendations given at the conclusions of the 1995 Brussels Symposium of the International sub-Commission on Cretaceous Stratigraphy. The shortness of the Globotruncanita elevata foraminifera zone suggests a sedimentation with hiatus near the Santonian - Campanian boundary, underlined by a glauconitic and gravel level. |
