FIG. 2 in A revised heterostracan-based ichthyostratigraphy of the Wood Bay Formation (Lower Devonian, Spitsbergen), and correlation with Russian Arctic archipelagos

Description

FIG. 2. — Stratigraphical section of the Andrée Land Block of northern Spitsbergen, after Harland (1997) and Blomeier et al. (2003a). Ages after Blieck et al. (2000, 2002) and McCann (2000). Note that: 1) it is common to subdivide the lowermost part of the Red Bay Group into Wulffberget, Rabotdalen (locally present) and Princesse Alicefjellet formations instead of only the Rivieratoppen Formation, according to Murashov & Mokin (1976, 1979) – this subdivision being applicable throughout the Devonian of northern Spitsbergen (Blomeier et al. 2003a, b); and 2) the Grey Hoek and Wijde Bay formations are considered as lateral equivalents and Eifelian in age by Schweitzer (1999); however, Schweitzer's idea that the Grey Hoek and Wijde Bay formations are of equal age is certainly not true along Wijdefjorden, where one lies on top of the other with a depositional boundary; upper parts of the Grey Hoek Formation in the Woodfjorden area may be coeval with the Wijde Bay Formation farther east (Blomeier et al. 2003a, b; W. Dallmann, pers. comm. 2007).
