A Triassic chronostratigraphic and palaeogeographic framework for the Utsira High area, northern North Sea: Reconstructing a basin‐scale drainage divide

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2417-2453, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Triassic succession of the northern North Sea comprises a series of interbedded sandstones, mudstones and conglomerates deposited under a fluctuating arid to semi‐humid climate regime, which are often difficult to correlate regionally due to differing lithostratigraphic schemes and poor age control. Despite existing regional studies on the

Evidence for the continental origin of Pliocene deposits in the central Baja California peninsula, Mexico, and implications for controls on biodiversity

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2488-2518, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...

A Levy flight-random walk model for bioturbation

open access: yes, 2002
Levy flights are employed in a lattice model of contaminant migration by bioturbation, the reworking of sediment by benthic organisms. The model couples burrowing, foraging, and conveyor-belt feeding with molecular diffusion. The model correctly predicts

Macroinvertebrates as engineers for bioturbation in freshwater ecosystem

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2022
Bioturbation is recognized as a deterministic process that sustains the physicochemical properties of the freshwater ecosystem. Irrigation, ventilation, and particle reworking activities made by biotic components on sediment beds influence the flow of nutrients and transport of particles in the sediment-water interface.

Mathematical Models of Bioturbation

1982
The purpose of this chapter is to examine existing mathematical models of important chemical, physical, and biological effects of organisms on sediments. The objectives and nature of the models will be discussed, the mathematical solution techniques will be identified, and the advantages and disadvantages of each type of model will highlighted.

BIOTURB: A FORTRAN program to simulate the effects of bioturbation on the vertical distribution of sediment

Computers & Geosciences, 1985
Abstract Bioturbation may have serious implications for preservation of original stratigraphic distribution of sediment. Thus, several methods have been developed to model the redistribution of sediment by bioturbation. The program BIOTURB provides a tool to compare and evaluate different models of bioturbation and their effects on sediment ...

Bioturbation: Unpredictable Expansion

2015
At the same time as climate patterns were being studied to monitor and understand change, coral scientists were observing serious disturbances on the reefs. At first it was the invasion of seastars (especially the Crown-of-Thorns) on the Great Barrier Reef, later found all around the tropics; then the epizootic outbreak in the Caribbean.
