Abstract
The Jurassic strata running through the county of Buckinghamshire, English south midlands, culminate in the marine to non-marine Upper Tithonian (formerly Portlandian) Portland and Purbeck formations. Despite poor exposure, this richly fossiliferous and strongly regressive carbonate-clastic succession allows reconstruction of shallow marine, coastal lagoonal and ultimately lacustrine environments, against the backdrop of a hot, greenhouse climate.
