Three‐Dimensional Morphology and Connectivity of Organic Pores in Shale from the Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations at the Southeast Sichuan Basin in China

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Organic pores play an important role in shale reservoirs. Organic pores occur where shale gas was produced and accumulated. However, there is little scientific understanding of the distribution and connectivity of organic pores. Organic pore types and their structural characteristics were studied using a total organic carbon (TOC), thin section ...

Petrographic Characterization and Maceral Controls on Porosity in Overmature Marine Shales: Examples from Ordovician‐Silurian Shales in China and the U.S.

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The pore structure characterization and its controlling factors in overmature shales are keys to understand the shale gas accumulation mechanism. Organic matter in source rocks is a mixture of various macerals that have their own specific evolutionary pathways during thermal maturation. Pores within macerals also evolve following their own path.

Microfossils in the Ordovician erratic boulders from Southwestern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1995
Chitinozoans, ostracods and acritarchs found in four glacially transported limestone boulders from the south-western coast of Finland have been studied in order to test the usefulness of these microfossil groups in age determinations. Also rare specimens

Geochemistry and correlation of volcanic ash beds from the Rootsiküla Stage (Wenlock–Ludlow) in the eastern Baltic [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2011
Nine altered volcanic ash samples from the shoal and lagoonal sediments of the Rootsiküla Stage (Wenlock–Ludlow boundary interval, Estonia) were analysed, compared and correlated with five samples of deep sea environments from Latvia.

A summary and revision of the East Baltic Silurian chitinozoan biozonation [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2012
The biostratigraphical data on the East Baltic Silurian chitinozoans are summarized. Based on the study of nine East Baltic drill cores, 28 regional chitinozoan zonal units, including 26 biozones and 2 interzones, are briefly characterized. In comparison

Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) conodont biostratigraphy in NW Estonia [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2012
Darriwilian conodonts have been studied in numerous sections of Baltoscandia, but few data are available from the classical outcrop area in northern Estonia. In this paper we report the succession of Darriwilian conodonts and chitinozoans from the bed-by-

Reconstructing Depositional Rates and Their Effect on Paleoenvironmental Proxies: The Case of the Lau Carbon Isotope Excursion in Gotland, Sweden

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 35, Issue 12, December 2020., 2020
Abstract Variations in depositional rates affect the temporal depositional resolutions of proxies used for paleoenvironmental reconstructions; for example, condensation can make reconstructed environmental changes appear very abrupt. This is commonly addressed by transforming proxy data using age models, but this approach is limited to situations where

Possible metazoan egg fossils from the Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) of Baltoscandia [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2021
The Baltoscandian lower Palaeozoic succession is well known for the abundance, diversity and excellent preservation of various groups of microfossils, such as acritarchs, chitinozoans, scolecodonts and conodonts.

Ordovician geology and stratigraphy of China: A synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023
China presently comprises several tectonic blocks and regions assembled over geological time and having independent histories. During the Ordovician, these blocks included South China, North China, Tarim, Qaidam, Junggar, Qiangtang-Qamdo, Lhasa and ...

A new chitinozoan species from the Middle Ordovician of Estonia [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2012
A new species Baltochitina delicata is formally defined. This rare species has been identified in the Aseri Regional Stage (Darriwilian) in North Estonian sections. The genus Baltochitina was known so far only by a single species B. nolvaki, which occurs
