Stratigraphy of non-marine sections and dynamics of marine transgressions in the deep geological past are important, yet challenging issues. Here we discuss results obtained from the Triassic–Jurassic (T–J) boundary interval of the Niekłań PIG drillcore section (Holy Cross Mountains or HCM, SE Poland). The core represents an expanded record of continental to marginal-marine facies, deposited within the axial part of the Polish Basin. The section is dated based on an integrated approach, utilizing palynologic proxies, stable carbon isotope correlations, and astronomical tuning of the section. Palaeoenvironment and its evolution is established by means of high-resolution sedimentology, clay mineral assemblages, and geochemical weathering indices (chemical index of alteration, CIA). The early to mid-Rhaetian was seasonal and progressively warmer and more humid, culminating with a hot and humid climate in the late Rhaetian; the earliest Jurassic was slightly cooler, yet still warm and humid, with year-round rainfall. Characteristic for the T/J boundary is the occurrence of two fern spikes (uppermost Rhaetian and lowermost Hettangian), which are associated with vegetation crises; this interval is also marked by wildfire indicators. Recognition of short eccentricity (~100 kyr) cycles enables calculation of sedimentation rates as well as temporal interpretation of the early Rhaetian marine inundation onto coastal plains of the Polish Basin. To begin with, over a period of ~200 kyr, a base-level rise led in the HCM region to a shift from fluvial to lacustrine depositional systems, while the final flooding marked by the onset of marine facies took another ~350 kyr. Additionally, observations allow inference of the magnitude of the early Hettangian relative sea-level rise, estimated herein to have been about 55 m.

Bioturbation structures preserved in the c. 260 m long Toarcian section of the Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) borehole (Wales, UK) display cyclic occurrences influenced by astronomical forcing. Depth-domain data series of ichnotaxa distribution were analysed using recurrence plots, which allow observation of cyclic patterns across various scales simultaneously and assessment of the varied responses of different tracemakers to the influence of particular orbital terms. Phycosiphon and Schaubcylindrichnus occurrences reflect the combined effect of precession, obliquity, and short eccentricity. In turn, conditions favouring the development of undulated bedding and the Thalassinoides and Trichichnus tracemakers were primarily controlled by the long eccentricity. Disruptions in the plots likely result from average sedimentation rate changes, and stress conditions experienced by benthic fauna during the latter stages of the Early Toarcian carbon isotope excursion. Generally, the plots reveal patterns characteristic of systems governed by deterministic chaos, with pronounced cyclic components.
