Abstract
Reef Stromatoporoid Morphologies as Dynamic Populations: Application of Field Data to a Model and the Reconstruction of an Upper Devonian Reef
ABSTRACT
Assemblages of stromatoporoid forms in an Upper Devonian reef complex (Miette reef, Jasper, Alberta), produced by grouping individual fossiliferous stratigraphic units on the basis of common populations of forms, may be used to reconstruct the reef on a two-dimensional horizontal (time plane) surface. The modelling procedure applies population data as recorded from the stratigraphic section in the field to a simple zonation model; this facilitates a better understanding of the population dynamics and interactions of stromatoporoid forms, and the general distribution of forms on the reef complex as it may have looked at the surface during reef growth.
