Tectono-stratigraphic evolution of the Outer Carpathian basins (Western Carpathians, Poland)

In the pre-orogenic and syn-orogenic evolution of the Carpathian basins the following prominent pe riods can be established: the Late Jurassic/Early Cretaceous subsidence. Late Cretaceous-Paleocene uplift, Paleocene-Middle Eocene subsidence, Late Eocene-Early Oligocenc uplift, and Late Oligocene-Early Miocene subsidence. Syn-and post-rift thermal subsidence and accretionary prism migration controlled the depositional processes.
