Generalised stratigraphy of southern West Greenland, revised from Chalmers et al. (1995) to include Nøhr-Hansen's (1998) revised biostratigraphy and the current view of the types of depositional processes and distribution of lithologies that are thought to be represented in the various basins

Fig. 2.1. Generalised stratigraphy of southern West Greenland, revised from Chalmers et al. (1995) to include Nøhr-Hansen's (1998) revised biostratigraphy and the current view of the types of depositional processes and distribution of lithologies that are thought to be represented in the various basins. The Chalmers et al. (1995) version attempted to plot variations between distal and proximal processes across the lithology display, but present understanding of the basin shows this to be an oversimplification, so the horizontal display on the present diagram is a mixture of distal–proximal, east–west and north–south variations.
