Wetlands as environments of early human occupation: A new classification for freshwater palaeowetlands

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A new classification for inland freshwater palaeowetlands to be used in the field or core laboratory by sedimentologists, providing examples from the Guadix Basin (southern Spain). Abstract Present wetlands have proven to be delicate, biodiverse ecosystems, that are natural sinks for CO2 and act as good indicators for climate changes.

Cooling climate across last interglacial high stands on San Salvador and Great Inagua, The Bahamas

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Temperature data comparison with last interglacial mollusc clumped isotope data from this study, as well as from Bermuda (Minnebo et al., 2024; Zhang et al., 2021). The ‘later’ and ‘earlier’ ages within MIS 5e refer to Reef II and Reef I, respectively, for Bahamas data.

Whitings in the Red Sea

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
We present the first documentation of whitings in the Red Sea, observed in a lagoonal environment. These events are linked to cascading offshore dense waters that liberate trapped sea floor nutrients, triggering algal blooms and elevating alkalinity, which is buffered by direct CaCO3 precipitation—contributing to the accumulation of aragonite mud in ...

Elevated temperature effects on swelling pressure of compacted bentonite

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
We present a set of new experimental investigations on the effects of elevated temperature on the swelling pressure development of compacted bentonite. This research was motivated by an emerging interest in using bentonite as a plug material in oil and gas well abandonment.

Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Data‐driven analysis of the spatial dependence of grouting efficiency during tunnel excavation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Prediction of grouting efficiency using machine learning is enhanced by adopting a training strategy that accounts for the grouting process across multiple rounds. Abstract Grouting with water–cement mixtures is the most widely used and cost‐effective method for managing excess water inflow during tunnel construction.

Gels for CO2 geo‐storage and conformance control: A systemic review of behavior and performance

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review provides a systemic evaluation of potential sealants used in CO2 subsurface storage practices. Critical analyses of how external factors like CO2, pH, brine salinity and hardness, rock mineralogy, pressure, temperature, and injectivity could affect the performance of different sealants are provided. Abstract Carbon capture and storage (CCS)

A review on rockburst prediction and prevention to shape an ontology‐based framework for better decision‐making for underground excavations

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A scientometric analysis of 2449 journal articles and a comprehensive review of 336 papers were conducted, discussing and identifying challenges and research gaps in rockburst prediction and prevention and proposing an ontology‐based framework for better decision‐making in underground excavations. Abstract With underground engineering projects becoming

Elastic and elastoplastic analysis of surrounding rock in CAES chambers considering excavation‐induced centripetal exponential reduction in mechanical properties

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents an analytical framework for evaluating stress distribution in compressed air energy storage (CAES) chambers, incorporating excavation‐induced damage. Key findings highlight the impact of excavation disturbed zones (EDZs) on stress patterns and bearing capacity, offering design strategies to optimize chamber stability and improve ...
