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 ...

Microbial influence on the formation and subsequent changes of vertebrate tracks: field experiments on present‐day coastal sediments

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of microbial mats is often invoked to explain the good preservation of vertebrate tracks, because they can cover and biostabilize such structures. However, microbial influence on the sediment properties when the track is made and on the track characteristics has not been so thoroughly analysed.
