Correlation:<br />
• Correlation is the act of comparing and<br />
connecting stratigraphic data sets from outcrop<br />
or drill records on the basis of<br />
-lithology (lithostratigraphy)<br />
-fossil content (biostratigraphy = relative age)<br />
-chronostratigraphy (“absolute” age)<br />
-allostratigraphy (unconformity-bounded<br />
successions of strata)<br />
-genetic allostratigraphy = sequence stratigraphy
