Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In the Ordovician of Kazakhstan facies control seems to have played an important role in the distribution of trilobite assemblages on the sea-floor. Several facies zones, mainly controlled by the depth of the sea and distance from the coast, can be distinguished, each containing a distinctive assemblage of trilobites.
