• Since Sloss's definition of "sequence" as "stratigraphic unit bounded by unconformities" (Sloss et al., 1949) to Vail's concept of sedimentary sequence "stratigraphic unit defined by unconformity and comparable conformity surface" (Vail and Mitchum, 1977), the journey indicates the step-wise establishment of sequence stratigraphy. [...]fourth-order sequence Shelf facies: [...]fourth-order sequence Deep ramp facies: The middle and shallow ramp facies in the upper part of Changshan Formation determines the Forced Regressive System Tract (FRST) of third-order sequence of Hunt and Tucker (1992) and Mei (2010) which is equal to the Late Highstand System Tract (LHST) (Mei et al., 2015) and Falling-Stage Systems Tract (FST) (Mei et al., 2005; Mei, 2007; Schlager and Warrlich, 2009; Samanta et al. 2016), characterizing relative sea level fall in sedimentary record (Figs. 2,6).
