Example:Biochronological analysis was used to date the sequence of sedimentary layers.

Definition:A method of determining the relative ages of fossils or archaeological findings based on the sequence of biological strata

Example:Biochronological correlation was employed to correlate the fossil records from Europe and North America.

Definition:The comparison and matching of biological sequences from different locations or time periods to establish their relative ages

Example:Biochronological succession was observed in the stratified fossil records.

Definition:The sequential arrangement of biological groups in time, used to establish relative chronological order

Example:The biochronological framework provided a clear timeline for the geological features.

Definition:A chronological system based on the appearance and disappearance of biological species to define time periods

Example:Biochronological chronology was used to define the Pleistocene epoch.

Definition:A method of determining time periods based on the existence of certain biological organisms
