Recent trends in stratigraphy have led towards the development of long, integrated, high-resolution records of Jurassic Earth history in diverse depositional settings. Taking into account recent advances in biogeochemistry, planetary dynamics, palaeoceanography, and mantle/crustal processes, integrated stratigraphy underpins our comprehension of the Earth system. The Jurassic Period marks an interval of time in which many of the key aspects of the modern world first appear. In this session we invite contributions founded in aspects of "classical" biostratigraphy and lithostratigraphy, quantitative biochronology, chemostratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, astrochronology, sequence stratigraphy, and radioisotope dating, all of which contribute to understanding the mechanisms governing Jurassic Earth history.
