Facies and depositional environments
• The facies concept refers to the sum of characteristics of a sedimentary unit,commonly at a fairly small (cm-m) scale
• Lithology
• Grain size
• Sedimentary structures• Sedimentary structures
• Color
• Composition
• Biogenic content
• Lithofacies (physical and chemical characteristics)
• Biofacies (macrofossil content)
• Ichnofacies (trace fossils)

Facies and depositional environments
• Facies analysis is the interpretation of strata in terms of depositional environments(or depositional systems), commonly based on a wide variety of observations
• Facies associations constitute several facies that occur in combination, and typicallyrepresent one depositional environment (note that very few individual facies arediagnostic for one specific setting!)diagnostic for one specific setting!)
• Facies successions (or facies sequences) are facies associations with a characteristicvertical order
• Walther’s Law (1894) states that two different facies found superimposed on oneanother and not separated by an unconformity, must have been deposited adjacent toeach other at a given point in time
