Reconstruction of deglacial sea surface temperatures in the tropical Pacific from selective analysis of a fossil coral [PDF]
The Sr/Ca of coral skeletons demonstrates potential as an indicator of sea surface temperatures (SSTs). However, the glacial-interglacial SST ranges predicted from Sr/Ca of fossil corals are usually higher than from other marine proxies.

Amino acid racemization dating of marine shells: a mound of possibilities [PDF]
Shell middens are one of the most important and widespread indicators for human exploitation of marine resources and occupation of coastal environments. Establishing an accurate and reliable chronology for these deposits has fundamental implications for ...

Study of Rock Types and Diagenetic Facies based on Velocity Deviation Log for Unraveling the Reservoir Heterogeneity in a Mixed Siliciclastic-Carbonate Reservoir, Southwest of Iran [PDF]
Investigating depositional and diagenetic factors that control pore systems properties of reservoir rocks is essential for unraveling reservoir heterogeneity and interpreting reservoir rock types.

Sulfate Reduction in Sediments Produces High Levels of Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter [PDF]
Sulfate reduction plays an important role in altering dissolved organic matter (DOM) in estuarine and coastal sediments, although its role in the production of optically active chromophoric DOM (CDOM) and a subset of fluorescent DOM (FDOM) has not been ...

Bioturbation experiments in the Venice Lagoon [PDF]
Short experiments (14–21 days) were carried out during autumn 1998 and spring 1999 at one selected site of the Venice Lagoon to measure bioturbation activities and mixing rates, as well as to obtain quantitative information on benthos functionality ...

Machine Learning for Reservoir Quality Prediction in Chlorite-Bearing Sandstone Reservoirs
We have developed a generalisable machine learning framework for reservoir quality prediction in deeply buried clastic systems. Applied to the Lower Jurassic deltaic sandstones of the Tilje Formation (Halten Terrace, North Sea), the approach integrates ...

Diagenetic processes in Quaternary fossil bones from tropical limestone caves
Quaternary fossils from limestone caves bear various diagenetic features due to the complex nature of sedimentary processes. However, few studies have addressed the problem of diagenetic changes in fossils from tropical-wet environments.

Non-destructive analysis of pathological belemnite rostra by micro-CT techniques [PDF]
Previously, palaeopathological features of fossil hardparts were often difficult to interpret because it was impossible to decipher their internal structure without destroying the specimens. We applied high-resolution computedtomo graphy (CT) to document
