Summary In order to elucidate the control of local, regional and global factors on occurrence, distribution and character of Jurassic
reefs, reefal settings of Mid and Late Jurassic age from southwestern Germany, Iberia and Romania were compared in terms of
their sedimentological (including diagenetic), palaeoecological, architectural, stratigraphic and sequential aspects. Upper
Jurassic reefs of southern Germany are dominated by siliceous sponge—microbial crust automicritic to allomicritic mounds.
During the Oxfordian these form small to large buildups, whereas during the Kimmeridgian they more frequently are but marginal
parts of large grain-dominated massive buildups. Diagenesis of sponge facies is largely governed by the original composition
and fabric of sediments. The latest Kimmeridgian and Tithonian spongiolite development is locally accompanied by coral facies,
forming large reefs on spongiolitic topographic elevations or, more frequently, small meadows and patch reefs within bioclastic
to oolitic shoal and apron sediments. New biostratigraphic results indicate a narrower time gap between Swabian and Franconian
coral development than previously thought. Palynostratigraphy and mineralostratigraphy partly allow good stratigraphic resolution
also in spongiolitic buildups, and even in dolomitised massive limestones.
Spongiolite development of the Bajocian and Oxfordian of eastern Spain shares many similarities. They are both dominated by
extensive biostromal development which is related to hardground formation during flooding events. The Upper Jurassic siliceous
sponge facies from Portugal is more localised, though more differentiated, comprising biostromal, mudmound and sponge-thrombolite
as well as frequent mixed coral-sponge facies. The Iberian Upper Jurassic coral facies includes a great variety of coral reef
and platform types, a pattern which together with the analysis of coral associations reflects the great variability of reefal
environments. Microbial reefs ranging from coralrich to siliceous sponge-bearing to pure thrombolites frequently developed
at different water depths. Reef corals even thrived within terrigeneous settings.
In eastern Romania, small coral reefs of various types as well as larger siliceous sponge-microbial crust mounds grew contemporaneously
during the Oxfordian, occupying different bathymetric positions on a homoclinal ramp.
Application of sequence stratigraphic concepts demonstrates that onset or, in other cases, maximum development of reef growth
is related to sea level rise (transgressions and early highstand) which caused a reduction in allochthonous sedimentation.
The connection of reef development with low background sedimentation is corroborated by the richness of reefs in encrusting
organisms, borers and microbial crusts. Microbial crusts and other automicrites can largely contribute to the formation of
reef rock during allosedimentary hiatuses. However, many reefs could cope with variable, though reduced, rates of background
sedimentation. This is reflected by differences in faunal diversities and the partial dominance of morphologically adapted
forms. Besides corals, some sponges and associated brachiopods show distinct morphologies reflecting sedimentation rate and
substrate consistency. Bathymetry is another important factor in the determination of reefal composition. Not only a generally
deeper position of siliceous sponge facies relative to coral facies, but also further bathymetric differentiation within both
facies groups is reflected by changes in the composition, diversity and, partly, morphology of sponges, corals, cementing
bivalves and microencrusters.
Criteria such as authigenic glauconite, dysaerobic epibentic bivalves,Chondrites burrows or framboidal pyrite in the surrounding sediments of many Upper Jurassic thrombolitic buildups suggest that oxygen
depletion excluded higher reefal metazoans in many of these reefs. Their position within shallowing-upwards successions and
associated fauna from aerated settings show that thrombolitic reefs occurred over a broad bathymetric area, from moderately
shallow to deep water. Increases in the alkalinity of sea water possibly enhanced calcification.
Reefs were much more common during the Late Jurassic than during the older parts of this period. Particularly the differences
between the Mid and Late Jurassic frequencies of reefs can be largely explained by a wider availability of suitable reef habitats
provided by the general sea level rise, rather than by an evolutionary radiation of reef biota. The scarcity of siliceous
sponge reefs on the tectonically more active southern Tethyan margin as well as in the Lusitanian Basin of west-central Portugal
reflects the scarcity of suitable mid to outer ramp niches. Coral reefs occurred in a larger variety of structural settings.
Upper Jurassic coral reefs partly grew in high latitudinal areas suggesting an equilibrated climate. This appears to be an
effect of the buffering capacity of high sea level. These feedback effects of high sea level also may have reduced oceanic
circulation particularly during flooding events of third and higher order, which gave rise to the development of black shales
and dysaerobic thrombolite reefs. Hence, the interplay of local, regional and global factors caused Jurassic reefs to be more
differentiated than modern ones, including near-actualistic coral reefs as well as non-actualistic sponge and microbial reefs. 相似文献

Summary This research report contains nine case studies (part II to X) dealing with Palaeozoic and Mesozoic mud mounds, microbial
reefs, and modern zones of active micrite production, and two parts (I and XI) summarizing the major questions and results.
The formation of different types ofin situ formed micrites (automicrites) in close association with siliceous sponges is documented in Devonian, Carboniferous, Triassic,
Jurassic and Cretaceous mounds and suggests a common origin with a modern facies found within reef caves. Processes involved
in the formation of autochthonous micrites comprise: (i) calcifying mucus enriched in Asp and Glu, this type presumably is
linked to the formation of stromatolites, thrombolites and massive fabrics; (ii) protein-rich substances within confined spaces
(e.g. microcavities) result in peloidal pockets, peloidal coatings and peloidal stromatolites, and (iii) decay of sponge soft
tissues, presumably enriched with symbiotic bacteria, lead to the micropeloidal preservation of parts of former sponge bodies.
As a consequence, there is strong evidence that the primary production of micrite in place represents the initial cause for
buildup development. The mode of precipitation corresponds to biologically-induced, matrix-mediated mineralization which results
in high-Mg-calcites, isotopically balanced with inorganic cements or equilibrium skeletal carbonates, respectively. If distinct
automicritic fabrics are absent, the source or origin of micrite remains questionable. However, the co-occurring identifiable
components are inadequate, by quantity and physiology, to explain the enhanced accumulation of fine-grained calcium carbonate.
The stromatolite reefs from the Permian Zechstein Basin are regarded as reminiscent of ancestral (Precambrian) reef facies,
considered the precursor of automicrite/sponge buildups. Automicrite/sponge buildups represent the basic Phanerozoic reef
type. Analogous facies are still present within modern cryptic reef habitats, where the biocalcifying carbonate factory is
restricted in space. 相似文献

Summary Two patch reefs which predominately consist of the oysterNanogyra nana (Sowerby 1822) are exposed in Lower Kimmeridigian strata of the Langenberg hillrange, central Germany. Left oyster valves
making up the frame-work of the reefs formed small abundant cavities that were inhabited by a unique sponge community. The
excellent preservation of non-rigid sponges was related to early organomineralization within the decaying sponge tissue. As
a process of sponge taphonomy, different types of microbially induced carbonates precipitated preserving spicule aggregates.
Organomineralization within sponge soft tissues is especially favored with the Langenberg patch reefs due to the closed or
semi-closed system conditions with the cavities. The δ13C values ofin situ formed microbialities reveal that carbonate precipitation was in equilibrium with Jurassic seawater. The carbon of the microbialites
does not derive from the bacterial remineralization of organic matter, but is of a marine source. Likewise, organomineralization
is probably related to bacterial EPS or decaying sponge tissues providing an organic matrix for initial carbonate precipitation.
Biomarker analyses revealed, that the patch reef microbialites contain terminally branched fatty acids (iso-andanteiso-pentadecanoic acid) in significant concentrations. These fatty acids, like hopanoid hydrocarbons, are most likely of a bacterial
source. This is in agreement with sulfate-reducing bacteria remineralizing the decaying sponges as further indicated by the
occurrence of framboidal pyrite in sponge microbialites. 相似文献

Summary The sedimentological features and the microbiofacies of the Cassian platforms (Late Ladinian-Carnian) of the Dolomites can
be studied only on the basis of the socalled “Cipit boulders”, that are platform-derived olistoliths and clasts fed to the
basin and escaped to the extensive dolomitization affecting the buildups.
Our paper deals with the Cipit boulders occurring in the Punta Grohmann section (Wengen and S. Cassiano formations, Late Ladinian,
Archelaus and Regoledanus Zones). The dominant microfacies are represented by boundstone, consisting of nearly 60% of micritic
limestone occurring both as peloidal or aphanitic micrite, mostly organized into stromatolitic laminites of thrombolites.
The skeletal organism (Tubiphytes, skeletal cyanobacteria, sphinctozoan sponges, etc.) represent only a minor component of the rock (usually less than 10%).
Early cements are widespread and consist both of fan-shaped calcite (replacing former aragonite), bladed isopachous magnesian
calcite and radial-fibrous calcite (neomorphic after Mg-calcite). The carbonate platforms from which the olistoliths derive
were made up mainly of carbonate mud that underwent early lithification, as witnessed by the considerable amount of early
cements: therefore they may be regarded to as mudmounds, and more precisely as microbial mud-mounds, due to the clearly accretionary,
organic-controlled nature of most micrites. The micrites, subdivided into auto- and allomicrite on the basis of micromorphological
and fabric characteristics, have been tested for epifluorescence. The results confirm the organic control on the deposition
of automicrite, also in the cases in which a microbial influence is not obvious (i.e. aphanitic micrite without internal organization). 相似文献
