The Ladinian-Carnian boundary interval is represented in many localities of the Southern Alps (Northern Italy) by continuous and expanded basinal successions.

Abstract
The Ladinian-Carnian boundary interval is represented in many localities of the Southern Alps (Northern Italy) by continuous and expanded basinal successions. The boundary interval is best exposed in Badia and Cordevole valleys (Dolomites); there, the Stuores Wiesen section has been indicated as a possible GSSP site for the Carnian stage (Broglio Loriga et al., 1999). The purpose of this study is to critically review the potential of Stuores Wiesen as a GSSP candidate, in the light of new data and interpretations that have arisen in the last eight years (e.g., Manco et al., 2004; Mietto et al., 2004).File in questo prodotto:
