Facies Cyclicity

Facies Cyclicity is a stratigraphic concept that denotes a recurring sequence of sedimentary facies within a depositional environment, distinguished by systematic vertical changes in lithology, fossil content, or sedimentary structures reflecting cyclical variations in controlling geological processes such as sea level, climate, or tectonics.
