==High-frequency cycles==
High-frequency sea level cycles (fourth or fifth order) cause the cyclical [[migration]] of the vadose, freshwater phreatic, and marine phreatic zones and the diagenetic processes occurring within those zones. Cycle amplitude and frequency determine the thickness and number of times a sequence is subjected to the processes that characterize each diagenetic zone. Each cycle leaves a diagenetic sequence mainly seen in the form of different cement types.<ref name=ch09r49>Read, J., F., 1995, Overview of carbonate platform sequences, cycle stratigraphy and reservoirs in greenhouse and ice-house worlds, in Read, J., F., Kerans, C., Webber, L., J., Sarg, J., F., Wright, F., M., eds., Milankovitch Sea-level Changes, Cycles, and Reservoirs on Carbonate Platforms in Greenhouse and Ice-house Worlds: SEPM Short Course 35, 183 p. Good summary of concepts of climatic effect on sea level cycles, carbonate deposition, and reservoir development.</ref>
