Cyclic deposition on a global scale is the product of the changes in sea-level

tectonics

climate

geography and depositional features of the global or the combination of these. Globalcyclostratigraphy is defined as the study of cyclic depositional patterns in the geologic recordproduced by the interaction of climate and tectonic processes. It is a stratigraphic branchwhich is developed based on the sequence stratigraphy. Stratigraphic changes through estimating sediment types and depositional environment in a basin can be predicted by means ofthe global cyclostratigraphy. This paper introduces systematically the fundament of theglobal cyclostratigraphy and application to predicting the stratigraphic thickness
