Abstract
In the Piz da Peres area (Valdaora-Olang, Pusteria Valley, Italy) an Anisian succession is exposed,A redefinition of the lithostratigraphy is made, and the presence of three terrigenous units of different ages (Piz da Peres Conglomerate, Voltago Conglomerate and Richthofen Conglomerate), as well as two carbonate platforms (Upper Serla Formation and Contrin Formation), is documented. This stratigraphic setting correlates well with other Anisian sections outcropping in the Dolomites and in the Recoaro area.Using sequence stratigraphy as an integrated approach, four Anisian depositional sequences are identified. Preliminary results indicate that these sequences can be recognized throughout the Dolomites and the Recoaro area, and might even extend to the Southern Alps.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
