• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Durlston Formation (Purbeck Group), Late/Upper Berriasian (145.0 - 140.2 Ma)
• lower Durlston beds
•
•Durlston Formation is likely upper Berriasian in age based on magnetostratigraphy (Ogg et al. 1994; Ogg et al. 2008) and correlates to other upper Berriasian assemblages in Europe (e.g. Wimbledon and Hunt 1993).
