ON THE KIMMERIDGIAN SUCCESSIONS OF THE NORMANDY COAST , NORTHERN FRANCE . R. W. Gallois Gallois, R. W. 2005. On the Kimmeridgian successions of the Normandy coast, northern France. Proceedings of the Geologists’ Association , Vol. 116, 33-43. ABSTRACT Kimmeridgian rocks crop out on the Normandy coast north and south of the Seine Estuary at Le Havre in a series of small foreshore and cliff exposures separated by beach deposits and landslips. A total thickness of about 45m of richly fossiliferous strata is exposed, ranging from the base of the Baylei Zone to the middle part of the Eudoxus Zone. The sections are mostly unprotected by sea-defence works and are subject to rapid marine erosion and renewal. Taken together, the Normandy exposures currently provide a more complete section through the low and middle parts of the Kimmeridgian Stage than any natural English section, including those of the Dorset type area. Descriptions and a stratigraphical interpretation of the Normandy sections are presented that enable the faunal collections to be placed in their regional chronostratigraphical context. The Kimmeridgian succession at outcrop on the Normandy coast contains numerous sedimentary breaks marked by erosion, hardground and omission surfaces. Some of these are disconformities that give rise to rapid lateral variations in the succession: biostratigraphical studies need therefore to be carried out with particular care. 1. INTRODUCTION The Kimmeridgian rocks of the Dorset type area and the Normandy coast are richly fossiliferous marine mudstones and limestones.

Smith’s map made a seminal contribution to the understanding of the ground beneath our feet and, by showing the location of coal, iron ore, clays and other raw materials, helped fuel the industrial revolution. Two hundred years on, the demands for spatial knowledge about our geological environment and its resources and hazards have become ever more diverse and pressing. Nevertheless, many of the motivators, approaches and principles pioneered by William Smith survive in the geological maps, models and information systems of today. The History of Geology Group and the British Geological Survey have worked together to convene two William Smith meetings at the Geological Society in 2015 to celebrate this landmark anniversary. The first, very successful meeting in April 2015, convened by HOGG, chronicled the history and development of the geological map from its earliest beginnings to the digital maps of today. This second meeting, convened by the BGS, looks to the future of geological mapping, and to the grand challenges for geoscience that will motivate the ‘William Smiths’ of tomorrow.

    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY Vol 99 Nr. 1 https://dx.doi.org/10.17850/njg99-1-02 Palaeoecology and palaeoenvironments of the Middle Jurassic to lowermost Cretaceous Agardhfjellet Formation (Bathonian–Ryazanian), Spitsbergen, Svalbard Maayke J. Koevoets1, Øyvind Hammer1 & Crispin T.S. Little2 1Natural History Museum, University of Oslo, P.O. Box 1172 Blindern, 0318 Oslo, Norway. 2School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, United Kingdom. E-mail corresponding author (Maayke J. Koevoets): [email protected] We describe the invertebrate assemblages in the Middle Jurassic to lowermost Cretaceous of the Agardhfjellet Formation present in the DH2 rock-core material of Central Spitsbergen (Svalbard). Previous studies of the Agardhfjellet Formation do not accurately reflect the distribution of invertebrates throughout the unit as they were limited to sampling discontinuous intervals at outcrop. The rock-core material shows the benthic bivalve fauna to reflect dysoxic, but not anoxic environments for the Oxfordian–Lower Kimmeridgian interval with sporadic monospecific assemblages of epifaunal bivalves, and more favourable conditions in the Volgian, with major increases in abundance and diversity of Hartwellia sp. assemblages. Overall, the new information from cores shows that abundance, diversity and stratigraphic continuity of the fossil record in the Upper Jurassic of Spitsbergen are considerably higher than indicated in outcrop studies. The inferred life positions and feeding habits of the benthic fauna refine our understanding of the depositional environments of the Agardhfjellet Formation. The pattern of occurrence of the bivalve genera is correlated with published studies of Arctic localities in East Greenland and northern Siberia and shows similarities in palaeoecology with the former but not the latter.
