Flexural bulges and foredeep basins: Dynamic tectonic control on shifting depocentres and condensed facies, Upper Cretaceous (Santonian), Western Canada Foreland Basin
Upper Cretaceous (Santonian) shallow‐marine mudstone of the Puskwaskau Formation fills the foredeep of the Western Canada Foreland Basin and was deposited on a near‐planar, wave‐graded ramp. These strata span ~2.3 myr and form an 800‐km‐long prismatic wedge that, perpendicular to the Rocky Mountain Cordillera, thins fr...
