The inner ramp comprises of Miliolid-soritid wackestone, Soritid wackestone, Alveolinid-soritid wackestone-packstone, Alveolinid wackestone, Alveolinid-Nummulitid wackestone-packstone, algal wackestone, and Coralline algal pack-grainstone microfacies. The middle ramp deposits are composed of Alveolinid-nummulitid wackestone-packstone and Nummulitid wackestone-packstone microfacies. Overall, the succession reflects a long term deepening trend.en10.1007/s12594-019-1249-yinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMicrofacies and Depositional Environment of the Ilerdian Carbonates in the North-Western Tosya (SE Kastamonu) Region, Northern TurkeyArticle9367127042-s2.0-85067286715Q3WOS:000471294100010Q4
