-//A major sea-level fall between the end of one sequence (the HST above) and the beginning of a new one (the LST bellow) resulting in a Sequence Boundary (SB: red line).//+//A major sea-level fall between the end of one sequence (during the highstand phase above) and the beginning of a new one (the lowstand phase bellow) resulting in a new Sequence Boundary (SB: red line) in the lower image.//
  
 When the next cycle of sea level change begins to cause sea levels to rise (the Transgressive Systems Tract - TST), the returning (submerged) continental shelf environment will contain suites of organisms made up of those species who were able to survive the disruption, together with a set of new species that may have arisen and can now exploit the new niches that are becoming available. When the next cycle of sea level change begins to cause sea levels to rise (the Transgressive Systems Tract - TST), the returning (submerged) continental shelf environment will contain suites of organisms made up of those species who were able to survive the disruption, together with a set of new species that may have arisen and can now exploit the new niches that are becoming available.
