Predicting Groundwater Hydrochemical Facies in Three Dimensions with Random Forest Classification, USA

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Random forest classification predictions of groundwater hydrochemical facies (HCFs) can be used for multiple purposes, including the mapping of salinity and other groundwater characteristics. Shown on the figure are predictions of HCFs at the water table across the conterminous United States.

Occurrence and distribution of barite in the permo-triassic siksikpuk formation along the Brooks Range haul road [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
Barite commonly occurs in Permian to Triassic age rocks along the north flank of the Brooks Range. The Siksikpuk Formation (Wolfcampian to lowest Guadalupian age) is noted for its barite and is well exposed in the vicinity of Galbraith Lake along the ...

Better Multi‐Breed Genomic Predictions for Tropical Bull Fertility Using a Breed‐Adjusted Genomic Relationship Matrix

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pressing requirement for agricultural systems to adopt climate change adaptation strategies specifically designed for tropical environments underscores the significance of implementing sustainable bull breeding practices in beef cattle operations.

Variable Sr Diffusion and Implications for Rb–Sr Biotite Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rubidium–strontium (Rb–Sr) system has a long pedigree as a geochronological tool that relies on the application of an isochron approach. In particular, biotite contains strongly radiogenic Rb–Sr isotopes, and thus can yield meaningful crystallisation or cooling ages via this approach. However, the response of the Rb–Sr system in biotite to

The orbital record in stratigraphy [PDF]

open access: yes
Orbital signals are being discovered in pre-Pleistocene sediments. Due to their hierarchical nature these cycle patterns are complex, and the imprecision of geochronology generally makes the assignment of stratigraphic cycles to specific orbital cycles ...

Depositional processes and stratigraphic evolution of the Campanian deltaic system of La Anita Formation, Austral-Magallanes Basin, Patagonia, Argentina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Coastal depositional systems are commonly classified in terms of the relative interaction of wave, tide and fluvial processes. The La Anita Formation represents the opportunity to study and better understand coastal sedimentary systems.

Sedimentary Architecture Prediction Using Facies Interpretation and Forward Seismic Modeling: Application to a Mediterranean Land–Sea Pliocene Infill (Roussillon Basin, France)

open access: yesGeosciences
This study predicts sedimentary architectures and facies distribution within the Pliocene prograding prism of the Roussillon Basin (Gulf of Lion, France), developed along an onshore–offshore continuum.

P–T Modelling Constrains the Depth of Emplacement of the Porto Azzurro Pluton and Implies Minor Exhumation Caused by the Zuccale Fault (Island of Elba, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

A Geomechanical Study of the Mississippian Boone Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Boone Formation in northwest Arkansas is a chert-limestone sequence analogous to the subsurface Mississippi Lime reservoir in parts of Oklahoma and Kansas. It has low permeability and produces via horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing.

Tracking Dehydration Reactions and Fossil Fluid Flux in Shear Zones Using Garnet Microstructures

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shear zones act as preferential fluid pathways during prograde and retrograde stages of metamorphism. Nonetheless, we still have limited knowledge of the drainage and permeability of natural settings. The preserved signature of fluid in exhumed rocks provides insights into fluid flow during burial and exhumation.
