The territory of the MDF in Devonian time developed as a shallow
epicontinental sea, often with restricted connection to open ocean.
Her research area entails ecophysiology of planktonic crustaceans from
epicontinental ecosystems and ecology of shallow, saline, and temporary lakes
The oil shale deposits are regionally and genetically connected with the synchronous economic phosphorite deposits on the shallow marine
epicontinental platform, however, separately accumulated in tectonic depression and swell facies settings, respectively [8, 10, 11].

This lacustrine system of Guelatao is comparable in dimensions to other Mexican

Las Partes acuerdan que los antecedentes historicos relevantes a estas Proclamaciones involucran una serie de proclamas comparables de otros Estados, a saber, las dos Proclamas de los Estados Unidos de America sobre su politica con respecto, tanto a los recursos naturales del subsuelo y el lecho marino de la plataforma continental como a la pesca costera en ciertas areas de alta mar, ambas fechadas el 28 de septiembre de 1945, la Declaracion de Mexico sobre la Plataforma Continental del 29 de octubre de 1945 y la Declaracion argentina Proclamando la Soberania sobre el Mar
Epicontinental y el Zocalo Continental del 11 de octubre de 1946.
Las especies identificadas se clasificaron de acuerdo con la tolerancia a la salinidad siguiendo la propuesta de MYERS (1949) y modificada por DARLINGTON (195 7), que considera como peces primarios a las especies con escasa tolerancia a la salinidad, secundarios a los que suelen vivir en aguas dulces, aunque presentan tolerancia a las aguas marinas y pueden distribuirse a traves de zonas costeras y mares pequenos, y perifericos a los que estan confinados en el medio
epicontinental o que pasan periodos de tiempo en agua dulce, pero que derivan de formas marinas ancestrales que han utilizado el mar como ruta de dispersion.
The Parties agree that the relevant historical background to these Proclamations involves a number of comparable proclamations by other States, namely the United States of America's two Proclamations of its policy with respect to both the natural resources of the subsoil and sea-bed of the continental shelf, and coastal fisheries in certain areas of the high seas, both dated 28 September 1945, the Mexican Declaration with Respect to Continental Shelf dated 29 October 1945 and the Argentinean Declaration Proclaiming Sovereignty over the
Epicontinental Sea and the Continental Shelf dated 11 October 1946.
During this epoch, despite dramatic water level fluctuations of the ancient
epicontinental seas, the clade avoided extinction (Huber, 1998).
In other words, they must have lived in an
epicontinental sea -an extensive but shallow salt water mass-, and it is therefore possible that this area was used as a breeding ground," he concludes.

epicontinental seas, flanked by fault--bounded basement uplands seems to have been the primary environments of deposition of carbonate materials in Nigeria.
