Cambrian

The Cambrian is the first geological period of the Paleozoic Era, and the Phanerozoic Eon.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Cambrian

Cambrian Stage 3

Cambrian Stage 3 is the still unnamed third stage of the Cambrian. Cambrian Series 2 and Cambrian Stage 3 are Cambrian geochronology.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Cambrian Stage 3

Cambrian Stage 4

Cambrian Stage 4 is the still unnamed fourth stage of the Cambrian and the upper stage of Cambrian Series 2. Cambrian Series 2 and Cambrian Stage 4 are Cambrian geochronology.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Cambrian Stage 4

Chemostratigraphy

Chemostratigraphy, or chemical stratigraphy, is the study of the chemical variations within sedimentary sequences to determine stratigraphic relationships.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Chemostratigraphy

China

China, officially the People's Republic of China (PRC), is a country in East Asia.

See Cambrian Series 2 and China

First appearance datum

First appearance datum (FAD) is a term used by geologists and paleontologists to designate the first appearance of a species in the geologic record.

See Cambrian Series 2 and First appearance datum

Guizhou

Guizhou is an inland province in Southwestern China.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Guizhou

International Commission on Stratigraphy

The International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS), sometimes unofficially referred to as the "International Stratigraphic Commission", is a daughter or major subcommittee grade scientific daughter organization that concerns itself with stratigraphical, geological, and geochronological matters on a global scale.

See Cambrian Series 2 and International Commission on Stratigraphy

Laurentia

Laurentia or the North American Craton is a large continental craton that forms the ancient geological core of North America.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Laurentia

Lemdadella

Lemdadella is an extinct genus of redlichiid trilobites that lived during the late Atdabanian stage, which lasted from 521 to 514 million years ago during the early part of the Cambrian Period.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Lemdadella

Marine chemistry

Marine chemistry, also known as ocean chemistry or chemical oceanography, is the study of chemical content in marine environments as influenced by plate tectonics and seafloor spreading, turbidity, currents, sediments, pH levels, atmospheric constituents, metamorphic activity, and ecology.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Marine chemistry

Miaolingian

The Miaolingian is the third Series of the Cambrian Period, and was formally named in 2018. Cambrian Series 2 and Miaolingian are Cambrian geochronology and geological epochs.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Miaolingian

Oryctocephalus indicus

Oryctocephalus indicus is a species of corynexochid trilobite from the Cambrian.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Oryctocephalus indicus

Paleozoic

The Paleozoic (or Palaeozoic) Era is the first of three geological eras of the Phanerozoic Eon.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Paleozoic

Redlichiidae

Redlichiidae is a family of redlichiid trilobites which lived from the Botomian to the Middle Cambrian period.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Redlichiidae

Terreneuvian

The Terreneuvian is the lowermost and oldest series of the Cambrian geological system. Cambrian Series 2 and Terreneuvian are Cambrian geochronology and geological epochs.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Terreneuvian

Trilobite

Trilobites (meaning "three lobes") are extinct marine arthropods that form the class Trilobita.

See Cambrian Series 2 and Trilobite

Trilobite zone

Trilobites are used as index fossils to subdivide the Cambrian period.
