  <dc:description xmlns:ns0="xml" ns0:lang="en">Based on a well-established bio- and sequence-stratigraphic framework, a narrow  time window in the Bimammatum ammonite zone (Late Oxfordian) is investigated in  six Swiss Jura sections representing a shallow-water carbonate platform. From the  detailed facies and microfacies analysis of oncoid-rich (Hauptmumienbank Member)  and ooid-rich (Steinebach Member) limestones, a microfacies classification is  established, depositional environments are interpreted, and a depositional model for  the Swiss Jura platform is proposed. The sequence- and cyclostratigraphic  interpretation has been performed for the transgressive part of the medium-scale  sequence Ox6+, independently for each section, with a very high time resolution at  the scale of elementary depositional sequences. The good correlation of the  elementary and small-scale sequences between the six studied sections and the  similar number of elementary sequences in all sections strongly suggest that allocyclic  processes were involved in their formation. The hierarchically stacked depositional  sequences (small-scale and elementary sequences) result from orbitally controlled  sea-level changes with periodicities of 100 and 20 kyr, respectively. Thickness  variations in the correlated small-scale and elementary sequences imply variable  sedimentation rates, probably resulting from differential subsidence due to the activity  of tectonic blocks. The tectonically controlled platform morphology contributed  significantly to the general pattern of depositional environments and, combined with  high-frequency sea-level fluctuations, created a complex facies distribution in time and  space on the Swiss Jura carbonate platform.</dc:description>
