Exopolymeric substances (EPS) produced in the photic zone and surface sediments sequester calcium. Below the sediment surface, heterotrophic bacteria degrade EPS, releasing calcium resulting in carbonate precipitation. This process, which continues for millennia deep in the core, is an important sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide.

This paper discusses a new model concerning the precipitation mechanismand significance of anhydrite cement in tight sandstone. Anhydrite cement ismainly formed by the dissolution and reprecipitation of early‐diageneticcalcite cements, feldspars and volcanic rock fragments at the mesodiageneticstage.

We propose that one of the largest known bioconstructions (the Monte Zenone bioherm) in the Southern Alps, northern Italy, and its growth on a tilted and drowned platform block of the Norian Dolomia Principale was controlled by hydrothermal dolomitisation from fault‐controlled fluids during the Late Triassic–Early Jurassic rifting phase. Dolomitisation

The Pennsylvanian landscape in the Forest City basin was characterised by low‐lying lycopod tree and fern swamp forests with persistently high groundwater tables and adjacent fluvial channel, floodplain and upland environments. The occurrence of abundant charcoal within a specific thin interval in the Cherokee Group indicates substantial wildfire ...

We provide a geomorphological analysis of Cordillera Vilcanota and use morphostratigraphic principles to reconstruct palaeo icefield extent and palaeoglacier readvances, likely during the Antarctic Cold Reversal and Younger Dryas. We find evidence of temperate and polythermal ice margins, with limited glaciofluvial landform generation.
