The Chinese Neogene Mammalian Biochronology — Its Correlation with the European Neogene Mammalian Zonation

  • Chapter
European Neogene Mammal Chronology

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 180))

Abstract

In contrast with Europe, the East Asian mainland is mainly characterized by Cenozoic continental deposits. Its coastline has been little altered at least since the Neogene, resulting in limited deposition of marine sediments on the mainland. Continued subsidence of the coast area during most of the Cenozoic Era has deeply buried the few marine deposits. On the other hand, the strong uplift of the southern and central parts of Asia, enormously intensified since the beginning of the Neogene as evidenced by the gigantic latitudinal mountain systems of the Himalayas, Tienshan, etc., has provided an immense amount of terrigenous material to the continental basins. Therefore, Neogene deposits, often thousands of meters thick and richly fossiliferous, are widely distributed in East Asia, especially in North China. South China, being principally a zone of denudation, is devoid of significant Neogene deposits, except for some small patches in Yunnan Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. For this reason the Neogene stratigraphy of China has been almost exclusively based on the continental deposits, and the Neogene geochronology has relied on mammalian paleontology.
