Summary:	Although tectonically dislocated at present, the paleogeographic zones of the northern Eastern Alps formed an interconnected paleobathymetric setting during the Upper Cretaceous (Coniacian to Maastrichtian). By comparing the paleoenvironments of the five sedimentary regions, paleo-oceanographic and paleobathymetric models are presented for the northern part of the Alps. These results are in agreement with recent oceanographic findings.
Target Audience:	Specialized.
