Facies

期刊简介：The journal is open to papers dealing with the interpretation of ancient and modern biotopes and carbonate depositional environments by means of facies analysis in its broadest sense. Once the central part of research in hydrocarbon exploration, facies analysis more and more integrates modern and ancient biogeological processes of a changing earth. Special emphasis is laid on paleobiology and -ecology, basin evolution, sedimentology including diagenesis and geochemistry, as well as studies emphasising the impact of life on earth history. The main part of the target group will be people in academia.

【译文】这本期刊欢迎发表关于通过岩相分析（广义上）来解释古代和现代生物群落以及碳酸盐沉积环境的论文。岩相分析曾是石油勘探研究的重要组成部分，现在越来越多地整合了地球变化过程中的现代和古代生物地球化学过程。特别强调古生物学和古生态学、盆地演化、沉积学（包括成岩作用和地球化学）以及强调生命对地球历史影响的研究。主要的目标群体将是学术界的人士。
