Investigation of Facies Types and Associations of Kuhlan Red Bed Formation in NW Yemen: A New Hypothesis for Origin and Depositional Environment

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2006
Varieties of thirteen facies types were recognized in the Kuhlan Formation represented by red bed siliciclastic sequences of argillaceous sediments. Examination of the Kuhlan stratigraphic column included sequence relationships, lithology, sedimentary ...

Paleoenvironmental Stasis for the Bioturbating Community During the Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum at the Southern Iberian Margin

Geobiology, Volume 24, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT During the Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), there was an increase in global temperatures and emissions of isotopically depleted carbon, resulting in a negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE). This climatic event caused a widespread ocean deoxygenation, leading to substantial biotic turnover.

Contrasting styles of Laramide folding across the west-central margin of the Cretaceous Valles-San Luis Potosí carbonate platform, Mexico

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
Along the west-central limit between the Central Mexico Mesozoic Basin and the Valles-San Luis Potosí carbonate platform exist marked variations in style and intensity of Laramide folding (Late Cretaceous-Early Tertiary). These variations are attributed

Stratigraphic relationships between the Colombian, Sinú Offshore and Sinú-San Jacinto basins based on seismic stratigraphy

Brazilian Journal of Geology
There are diverse controversial and contradictory models about the geological history of the Caribbean region. Some issues such as the origin of the Caribbean plate, the nature of basement of the Caribbean basins and the regional tectonics, have been in ...

Reduced sediment accumulation rate enhances early marine diagenesis of periplatform sediments

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
The influence of reduced sediment accumulation rate on early marine burial diagenesis was investigated in sediments collected by ODP Leg 133. Results show that low sediment accumulation rates can produce substantial and asynchronous shifts in stable carbon isotope ratios across a slope transect without the development of sedimentological indicators of ...

Detrital-zircon geochronology and provenance of the Ocloyic synorogenic clastic wedge, and Ordovician accretion of the Argentine Precordillera terrane [PDF]

, 2015
The Precordillera terrane in northwestern Argentina is interpreted to be anexotic (Laurentian) continental fragment that was accreted to western Gondwanaduring the Ordovician. One prominent manifestation of the subductionand collision process is a Middle?

Development and Application of a Simplified Method for Preliminary Assessment of Enhanced Oil Recovery and CO2 Geological Storage in Petroleum Reservoirs

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 238-252, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Geologic carbon storage in depleted oil and gas reservoirs is a key CO2 mitigation strategy, utilizing existing infrastructure such as injection wells and pipelines, while capitalizing on well‐characterized subsurface properties. This article introduces a versatile methodology designed to estimate critical parameters, including the number of ...

Late Campanian–Maastrichtian sequence stratigraphy from Kurdistan foreland basin, NE/Iraq

Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2018
The Kurdistan foreland basin (NE Iraq) was formed as a result of the ophiolite–radiolarites obduction of the Iranian plate on the Arabian Plate. Extensive fieldwork for the determination of nine facies associations has been integrated with the planktonic
