Research Idea and Practice of Tectonic-Sequence Lithofacies Paleogeographic in Diverse Scales
Drawing paleogeography is an important method to reconstruct paleogeography of different geological history. Sedimentary sequence of different order and scale responds differently to varying driving mechanism. To link with hydrocarbon exploration closely, usually selecting the second-order, third-order and medium-term base level phases as compilation unit, to draw sequence lithofacies paleogeographic of small scale, medium scale and large scale on large plot, basin or large area inside basin, and important block. They are marked by the advantages, such as isochronisms, succession of the sedimentation process and practicability. The sequence lithofacies paleogeographic can manifest detailedly paleogeography in varying degrees and represent the combination and distribution regulation of material from diverse scale.
