To address the issues of early-age high shrinkage and the consequent strength deterioration in fully aeolian sand-based high-performance concrete, which arise from its low water-to-binder ratio and absence of coarse aggregate, this study designs and ...

The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)
ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

Microstratigraphy and Site Formation Processes at Quebrada Jaguay 280 (Peru)
ABSTRACT This study presents a microanalytical, geoarchaeological study of Quebrada Jaguay (QJ)‐280, a Terminal Pleistocene–Holocene coastal site in southern Peru. Combining micromorphology, µXRF and µFTIR, we develop a site formation model that also reassesses site use and forager behaviour.

Concrete structures in the wind-sand environments of the Gobi Desert, Northwest China, face severe damage from the combined effects of freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles and wind-blown sand and gravel flow.

Provenance records from the late Palaeozoic Marfa Basin in West Texas reveal the transition from the Ancestral Rocky Mountains to the Ouachita–Marathon–Sonora orogenies during the early Permian in SW Laurentia. ABSTRACT The Marfa Basin in West Texas is a late Palaeozoic synorogenic depocenter associated with regional deformation linked to the Ancestral

Sedimentary Architecture of the Stimson Formation at the Naukluft Plateau, Gale Crater, Mars
Abstract Sedimentary texture, facies, and architecture can be used to reconstruct the palaeoenvironment under which sediments accumulate. On Mars, palaeoenvironmental reconstructions are used to understand ancient Martian atmospheric circulation, surface sedimentary processes, and the presence of water, to provide insight into ancient habitability and ...

ABSTRACT Preserved allocyclic signatures in the rock record often reflect basin‐scale climatic variability and serve as key proxies for correlating ancient dryland successions. The notion of climate cyclicity, however, remains largely untested on regionally constrained, outcrop‐calibrated studies.
