Palynofacies

A Palynofacies is the complete assemblage of organic matter and palynomorphs in a fossil deposit. The study of the palynofacies of a depositional environment of sediments can be used to learn about the depositional palaeoenvironments of sedimentary rocks. The term Palynofacies was introduced by the French geologist André Combaz in 1964. Palynofacies studies are often linked to investigations of the palynology and organic geochemistry of sedimentary rocks. Palynofacies can be used in two ways:
