| dc.description.abstract | The Albian Aitziber calcarenites (Alsasua, Navarra) are analysed on the basis of their overall geometry, types of limiting boundaries, internal composition, facies, sedimentary structures and paleogeographical context. An «in situ» origin in shallow-water is inferred. The base of the calcarenite sheet represents an abrupt shallowing relative to the underlying basin. The top of the calcarenite records a drowning, hardground and a hiatus between the upper Albian and the upper Cretaceous. Sea level fluctuations related to a local tectonic origin were responsible for the calcarenite inception and demise | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | Se han analizado las calcarenitas albienses de Aitziber (Alsasua, Navarra) desde la perspectiva de su geometría global, tipos de límites, composición interna, facies, estructuras sedimentarías y contexto paleogeográfico. Se ha deducido un origen en aguas someras y esencialmente «in situ». La base de la unidad calcarenitica representa un evento de brusca somerización de la cuenca infrayacente. El techo de las calcarenitas registra un hundimiento con formación de fondo litificado y marca un hiato entre el Albiense superior y el Cretácico superior. Las variaciones relativas del nivel del mar causadas por tectónica local explicarían la instauración y la terminación de las calcarenitas | en_US |
