Abstract
Sedimentary units deposited in shallow marine or coastal environments are analysed by a new method applied in the Jaca basin (Eocene, Spanis h Pyrenees). Variations in accommodation are estimated based on sedime nt thicknesses and paleobathymetries which are defined by a facies ana lysis. These variations are studied by polynomial and sinusoidal regre ssions to distinguish between the regional eustatic effect and the sub sidence which Varies locally.
