Abstract

ORIG CZ

V originále

The deposits of the Upper Carboniferous to Lower Permian Zöbing Formation in Lower Austria have been studied by a widerange of sedimentological methods in several limited outcrops. Four facies associations were identified: (a) non-channelized finegrained deposits; (b) channelized sandstones, (c) non-channelized conglomerates, and (d) channelized conglomerates. Non-channelized fine-grained sediments are interpreted as deposits in shallow, semi-permanent pools on floodplains. Channelized sandstones are associated with fluvial processes and mostly represent crevasse channels cut into the floodplains. Channelized conglomerates originated from coarse-grained confined and hyperconcentrated flows. Non-channelized conglomerates are interpreted as sediments of alluvial fan and alluvial plain systems. A terminal fluvial system developed under a semi-arid to arid climatic regime is supposed to be the depositional environment of the Zöbing Formation.

In Czech

Permokarbonské sedimenty souvrství Zöbing v rámci Dolního Rakouska byly studovány řadou sedimentologických metod na řadě drobných odkryvů. Byly identifikovány čtyři faciální asociace, které byly interpretovány jako sedimenty mělkých, semi-permanentních jezer v rámci výplavové roviny, sedimenty výplavové roviny s průvalovými kanály případně říčními koryty, sedimenty přívalových proudů a sedimenty aluviálního kužele. Terminální fluviální systém vzniklý v semi-aridním až aridním prostředí je zvolen jako depoziční model pro sedimenty souvrství Zöbing.
