MESOZOIC STRATIGRAPHIC FRAMEWORK OF THE SOUTHERN EAST CHINA SEA SHELF BASIN AND ITS CORRELATION WITH ADJACENT AREAS

Upon the tectonic, stratigraphic and sedimentary data of outcrops, drilling cores and seismic surveys acquired from both the onland Zhejiang-Fujian region and the offshore areas of the southern East China Sea Shelf Basin, we made subdivision and correlation of the Mesozoic. And the types of Mesozoic sedimentary basins are also discussed. Based upon the established stratigraphic framework, correlation of stratigraphy is carried out between the southern East China Sea Shelf Basin and its adjacent areas. The regional stratigraphic framework is very helpful for oil and gas exploration.
