Figure 26.
Isopach maps for each of the main stratigraphic intervals showing the areas of greatest sediment accumulation resulting from differential subsidence. (A) thickness of the Cenozoic sediments; (B) Cretaceous Cromer Knoll and Chalk Group combined thicknesses; (C) Jurassic thicknesses; (D) Triassic Bacton, Haisborough and Penarth Group thicknesses; (E) upper Permian Zechstein Group thickness; (F) Permian Rotliegend Group thickness (after Doornebal and Stevenson, 2010). The Cretaceous and Cenozoic maps also serve to illustrate the effects of erosion and sea-bed subcrop patterns that result from basin inversion and tilting.
