The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A classical peripheral foreland basin is bounded longitudinally by a pair of marginal ocean basins (DeCelles & Giles, 1996). The WTFB sediments transfer to adjacent marginal ocean basins. The western Taiwan foreland basin (WTFB) is regarded as a classical peripheral foreland basin, longitudinally bounded by the southern Okinawa Trough (SOT) to the ...

User guide : Aquifer Productivity (Scotland) GIS Datasets. Version 2 [PDF]
, 2011 This report describes a revised version (Version 2) of the aquifer productivity (Scotland) datasets produced by the British Geological Survey (BGS). There are two maps: bedrock aquifer productivity and superficial deposits aquifer productivity. Version

Lacustrine and fan‐delta sediments in syn‐rift lake basins
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A consistent model for the sequence framework and depositional pattern of asymmetric half‐grabens in syn‐rift lake basins bounded by active faults has been established, complementing existing models for marine rift successions. Syn‐rift lake basins are characterised by relatively small dimensions, steep slopes, poorly developed shoreline strata ...

Evolving force balance during incipient subduction [PDF]
, 2004 Nearly half of all active subduction zones initiated during the Cenozoic. All subduction zones associated with active back arc extension have initiated since the Eocene, hinting that back arc extension may be intimately associated with an interval ...

Interactive Estimation of the Fractal Properties of Carbonate Rocks [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Scale invariance of intrinsic patterns is an important concept in geology that can be observed in numerous geological objects and phenomena. These geological objects and phenomena are described as containing statistically selfsimilar patterns often modeled with fractal geometry.

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Some layers of limestone produce some hydrocarbons, and these hydrocarbons are removed from the fractures and cracks of the rock. The organic matter (OM) contained in the limestone is a mixture of terrestrial and marine OM and is thermally immature and mature.

Abstractions and automated algorithms for mixed domain finite element methods [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Mixed dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) are equations coupling unknown fields defined over domains of differing topological dimension. Such equations naturally arise in a wide range of scientific fields including geology, physiology, biology and fracture mechanics.

Axisymmetric displacement flows in fluid-driven fractures [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics. 2022;953:A36Displacement flows are common in hydraulic fracturing, as fracking fluids of different composition are injected sequentially in the fracture. The injection of an immiscible fluid at the center of a liquid-filled fracture results in the growth of the fracture and the outward displacement of the interface between the two liquids. We study the dynamics of

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A limestone cave in the NW Dinarides exhibits an anomalous presence of montmorillonite clay, not commonly found in surrounding caves, posing questions about its origin and age. Analysis reveals a composition similar to weathered tephra from the Smrekovec Volcanic Complex, suggesting transport by north‐east winds.

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.The article demonstrates that brine was central for the supply of Ca and B to the studied saline lake. The ion transport occurred probably by thermal springs, while contributions from surface waters cannot be excluded. However, the saturation and syndepositional precipitation of Ca borates were initiated by an arid climate through evaporation, while ...
