It is a carbonate ramp with a quartz beach. Model 2 represent the normal marine Cedar Valley Limestone north of the Sangamon Arch. It consists, in an offshore direction of an intertidal flat, ecologically zoned lagoon, stromatoporoid buildup, slope and basinal environments. Model 3 represents the basal members of the Wapsipinicon Formation. It is a partly anoxic hypersaline environment consisting of a quartz beach, evaporitic flat, stromatolitic ridge, and an anoxic lagoon. Model 4 is a hypersaline environment with an inner lagoon and is applicable to parts of the Wapsipinicon Formation, Geneva Dolomite and Cedar Valley Limestone. This model consists of a quartz beach, evaporitic flat, inner lagoon, stromatolitic ridge, and an outer lagoon.","Separate diagenetic evolutions were recognized for the normal marine and hypersaline microfacies. The normal marine microfacies display diagenetic features indicating a normal evolution starting with marine phreatic, and proceeding through, marine vadose, meteoric vadose, undersaturated meteoric phreatic, saturated meteoric phreatic, mixed marine-meteoric and ending with burial. Diagenesis of the hypersaline microfacies is dominated by early dolomitization and formation of collapse breccias. The diagenetic sequence for the hypersaline microfacies is marine phreatic, marine vadose-evaporitic, meteoric vadose, meteoric phreatic, mixed marine-meteoric and burial.","Thirteen cycles were recognized, which appear to correlate well with published Middle Devonian sea level curves and indicate that the Middle Devonian was a time of oscillating sea level rise.","Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T14:22:27Z (GMT).
