The palynofloras are dominated as follows: the Berriasian one by ferns (Cyatheaceae, Dicksoniaceae, Osmundaceae), Classopollis and bisaccate pollen; the Valanginiar-Hauterivian one by ferns (Cyatheaceae, Dicksoniaceae), Ginkgocycadophytus and bisaccate pollen; the Barremian one by ferns (Cyatheaceae, Dicksoniaceae); the Aptian one by ferns (Cyatheaceae, Dicksoniaceae, Gleicheniaceae) and Ginkgocycadophytus; and the Albian one by ferns (Schizaeaceae) and bisaccate pollen. In the Albian the floral diversity raises with the angiosperms appearing.展开更多

Among them, the coexistence of Coniopteris and Cycadocarpi-dium demonstrates that the present flora possesses the characters of the early assemblage of Early Jurassic floras in Eura-sia. Therefore, the age of the Shansonggang flora is considered the Early Jurassic.This study would be beneficial for bet-ter understanding the paleoecological and paleoclimatic characteristics of the Shansonggang Basin. Based mainly on the characters of the flora, the authors suggest that the Lower Jurassic coal-bearing strata, the Shansongang Formation, should namely be renewed.展开更多

A relative chronology of the late Mesozoic tectonic stress evolution was established from the field analyses of fault kinematics and constrained by stratigraphic contact relationships. The results show alternation of tectonic compressional and extensional regimes. The Ordos Basin and its surroundings were in weak N-S to NNE-SSW extension during the Early to Middle Jurassic, which reactivated E-W-trending basement fractures. The tectonic regime changed to a multi-directional compressional one during the Late Jurassic, which resulted in crustal shortening deformation along the marginal zones of the Ordos Basin. Then it changed to an extensional one during the Early Cretaceous, which rifted the western, northwestern and southeastern margins of the Ordos Basin. A NW-SE compression occurred during the Late Cretaceous and caused the termination of sedimentation and uplift of the Ordos Basin. This phased evolution of the late Mesozoic tectonic stress regimes and associated deformation pattern around the Ordos Basin best records the changes in regional geodynamic settings in East Asia, from the Early to Middle Jurassic post-orogenic extension following the Triassic collision between the North and South China Blocks, to the Late Jurassic multi-directional compressions produced by synchronous convergence of the three plates (the Siberian Plate to the north, Paleo-Pacific Plate to the east and Lhasa Block to the west) towards the East Asian continent. Early Cretaceous extension might be the response to collapse and lithospheric thinning of the North China Craton.展开更多
