Preface; Carbonate deposition during early rifting: the Cambrian of Sardinia and the Triassic-Jurassic of Tuscany, Italy; Geometry and evolution of platform-margin bioclastic shoals, late Dinantian (Mississippian), Derbyshire, UK; Cyclic sedimentation in carbonate and mixed carbonate-clastic environments: four simulation programs for a desktop computer; Middle Triassic carbonate ramp systems in the Catalan Basin, northeast Spain: facies, systems tracts, sequences and controls.

Stages in the evolution of late Triassic and Jurassic carbonate platforms: the western margin of the Subalpine Basin (Ardeche, France)The formation and drowning of isolated carbonate seamounts: tectonic and ecological controls in the northern Apennines; Controls on Upper Jurassic carbonate buildup development in the Lusitanian Basin, Portugal; Hauterivian to Lower Aptian carbonate shelf sedimentation and sequence stratigraphy in the Jura and northern Subalpine chains (southeastern France and Swiss Jura); Basement structural controls on Mesozoic carbonate facies in northeastern Mexico-a review.
