Development and factors controlling tropical carbonate barrier island systems—Bar Al Hikman; mid‐late Holocene, Oman

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern carbonate barrier island systems are crucial coastal geomorphological features increasingly affected by human activities and global environmental change. Predicting their evolution is essential for effective coastal management. In addition, in the subsurface, palaeo‐barriers may hold valuable reservoir potential; however, due to complex

A model for the concomitant early formation of dolomite and fibrous clays in coastal bay systems: Evidence from the Eocene (Paris Basin, France)

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Detailed analysis of Lutetian–Bartonian deposits in the Paris Basin (‘Marnes et Caillasses’ Formation) provides new evidence of concomitant magnesian fibrous clays (palygorskite and sepiolite) and early microcrystalline dolomite. Although relatively uncommon in sedimentary archives, palygorskite and sepiolite are found in a wide range of ...

Sedimentological and biofabric patterns for hybrid coquina deposits: Insights from wave tank experiments

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hybrid bioclastic/siliciclastic coquinas are sedimentary accumulations typical of coastal‐ and shallow‐water settings, where wave breaking, longshore drift and wave shoaling drive sediment transport and control the final accumulations. These processes resulted in thick packages of sediments, as identified in the Lower Cretaceous depositional ...
