The histogram patterns of foraminiferal and calcareous nannoplankton abundance for the South Galveston Mobil A-158 #3 well are shown in [[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-23.png|Figure 3]]. The histogram is based on a detailed checklist of the relative abundance of each species of fossil in each well-cutting sample.<ref name=ch04r10>Armentrout, J., M., Clement, J., F., 1990, Biostratigraphic calibration of depositional cycles: a case study in High Island–Galveston–East Breaks areas, offshore Texas: Proceedings, Gulf Coast Section SEPM 11th Annual Research Conference, p. 21–51.</ref> Display of this data in two-way time facilitates integration with seismic reflection profiles using the [[synthetic seismogram]] to match the well data with the seismic reflection profile at the well site. Patterns of shallow vs. deep [[Fossil assemblage|biofacies]] and fossil abundance (i.e., concentration vs. dilution) can be correlated with [[Depocenter#Sediment_supply_rate_and_facies_patterns|progradation]] of sandstone vs. mudstone interpreted from wireline log patterns. Bioevents (abbreviated acronyms such as 2B and SG) and faunal discontinuity events (abbreviated FDA-3 and FDA-4) provide correlation horizons between which the abundance patterns provide additional events for correlation.<ref name=ch04r7 />

In the histogram in [[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-23.png|Figure 3]] (see [[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-17.png|Figure 1]] for well location), the foraminiferal abundance scale is 0-1000 specimens and the nannoplankton abundance scale is 0-800 specimens. Biofacies include inner neritic (IN, 0-50 m), middle neritic (MN, 50-100 m), outer neritic (ON, 100-200 m), upper bathyal (UPPB, 200-500 m), middle bathyal (MDLB, 500-1000 m), and lower bathyal (LOWB, 1000–2000 m). This figure is the leftmost (southern) well panel in [[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-24.png|Figure 4]]. The wireline log (gamma ray) motif patterns ([[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-22.png|Figure 2]]), biostratigraphic abundance events, and extinction datums provide correlation events.
