Abstract

Lithological and facies zonality of Neopleistocene and Eopleistocene sediments of Australian seas is described firstly. Processing of these maps and isopach schemes by A.B. Ronov volumetric method gave us an opportunity to calculate quantitative parameters of sedimentation for different types of Pleistocene sediments. It was revealed the dominance of carbonate sediments comparatively to other sediment groups. In Neopleistocene carbonate planktic sediments and lithogenic sediments accumulated more intensively than in Eopleistocene.
