2 沉积相 (Sedimentary facies)——反映沉积记录成因 (环境、
条件和沉积作用) 的岩石特征和生物特征的综合。即沉积记录成因的物质表现。 岩相 (lithofacies,petrofacies)生物相 (biofacies)

Walther,1894),只有那些目前可以观察到是相互毗邻的相和相区,才能原生地重叠在一起 ; 即在垂向上整合叠置的相是在侧向上相邻的沉积环境中形成的。
Walther’s law (rule) or law of facies correlation,Only those facies
and facies-areas can be superimposed primarily which can be
observed beside each other at the present time (translated by
Middleton,1973); in other words,facies occurring in a
conformable vertical sequence of strata were formed in laterally
adjacent environments.

What is an
Uniformitarianism
―The past history of our globe must be explained by what can be seen to be
happening now‖ (James Hutton),It was named Uniformitarianism by Charles
Lyell (1830; Hutton,1795)

现代腕足动物 以正常浅海为主,各种水深均能生存 (0-
6000m+);古生代腕足类大多数生活在盐度正常的浅海环境中,但中生代以来发现它们与某些深水类别共生
