Conodonts are very useful fossils in the identification and correlation of strata, as they evolved rapidly, changing many details of their shapes as geologic time passed.
The success of dating Phanerozoic time with some degree of precision has depended on the interlinking of radiometric ages with biostratigraphy, which is the correlation of strata with fossils.
The correlation between strata temperature and depth was also illustrated, which showed three linear relationships in depth of 400 700, 700 850, and 850 1100 m, separately.
The span of time represented by each graptolite biozone probably is not perfectly uniform, but the zonation allows the correlation of strata in depositional units of one million years or less.
Seaside towns are built on strata upon strata of happy memories; a sort of emotional geology.
Although the mentioned bias, the levels of correlation for the strata E2, E4, E6, E7 and E8 are high.

To perform analyses, we used the SAS version 9.1 Proc SURVEYREG (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC) procedure, which takes into account possible correlation between the strata and clusters by which NHANES samples the population.
All regression analyses were performed using the SAS 9.1 Proc SURVEYREG procedure, which takes into account possible correlation between the strata and clusters by which NHANES samples the population.
Since no explicit justification has been given for the correlation of the strata supposedly belonging to the Qigu Formation in the Turpan Basin, the assignment of rocks units exposed in the Flaming Mountains to this formation is not transparent [ 28], but our preliminary classification places both sites within the Qigu Formation.
