| The shallow shelf of central Texas during early Cretaceous time exhibited a cyclically transitional shoreline and shallow marine environment along an epeiric sea. |
| Facies models in modern systems are well portrayed and clearly explained for shelves, ramps, atolls, isolated oceanic islands, and epeiric seas. |
| Diagenetically, the geochemical analysis indicates a cyclic type of the sedimentation during the deposition of the limestone in an epeiric platform. |
| According to the data collected, Graptolites lived intermittently within the shallow benthos of the epeiric sea of North America. |
| There it traversed an epeiric, or mid-continental sea open to both north and south. |
| Jeppsson explained changes in carbonate production in epeiric and marginal seas by abrupt turnovers in oceanic states due to rearrangement of ocean water circulation. |
