Earth’s history is segmented into different phases based on the geological clock. The change in the geological time unit is marked by significant changes in the features such as the sedimentation pattern of rocks and fossil makeup. Thus, the study of rock strata (stratigraphy) is an important tool to find out the geological timescale shift. Another parameter considered to study the shift in…
