Abstract(s)

The Hochgern Crinoidal Limestone is of Lower to Middle Jurassic age. The deposit consists of low energy sediments, reflecting the environments of the transitional area between shelf and basin. They are considered to have accumulated at a level upslope of the other time-equivalent but dike carbonate unit (Hochlerch Limestone) of the area. This unit also shows characteristics of deposition under quiet water environments.
