Comparison of Geological and Engineering Parameters of Marine Sediments
Offshore Technology Conference, 1972Abstract Three-inch diameter piston cores collected from the Gulf of Mexico undergo a large number of geological and soil engineering tests in order to determine relationships between various physical parameters. Electrical resistivity logs are run to determine zones of interest.

Modelling Coastal Sedimentation through Geologic Time
Journal of Coastal Research, 2005Abstract Many deterministic numerical models accurately predict wave action and coastal flow but are unable to represent sedimentary processes over geologic times either because their basic equations and numerical implementation do not allow the sediment-water interface to change through time, or because their degree of detail makes geologic-time ...

Phytolithic analysis of geological sediments from Panama
Antiquity, 1985The analysis of phytoliths, microscopic pieces of silica formed within the cells of living plants, is a recent addition to archaeobotanical studies in the New World (Carbone, 1977; Pearsall, 1978; Lewis, 1981; Robinson, 1983; Piperno, 1983, 1984, in press, a; Piperno & Clary, 1984). Because these mineralized bodies are very resistant to destruction

General Aspects of Sedimentation in the Geological Basins of France
SEPM Journal of Sedimentary Research, 1950ABSTRACT The three chief sedimentary basins of France (the Paris, Aquitanian, and Rhodanian Basins), and three smaller ones (Limagne, Forez, and Alsatian Basins), are defined. The roles played by the marginal land areas are examined in each case. The primary importance of the Central Massif, and its progressive reduction during geological time, are ...

Sediment Transport along the Southeast Mediterranean: A geological perspective
Geo-Marine Letters, 1984Sediment is being transported from the Nile Delta to the Israeli coast by a wave-induced longshore current carrying mainly sand, and by the geostrophic Mediterranean Current, detected in Earth Resources and Technology Satellite (ERTS) photographs through the presence of suspended sediments.

Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 2017
In the Jurihe area of Inner Mongolia, lamellar hydrothermal sediment of Permian was recognized. These rocks were inter-bedded with volcanic rocks, altered by hot water (hydrothermal fkuid) during the synsedimentary and quasi-synsedimentary stage. The lithogeochemistry of the rock components differ from typical sedimentary rocks.

Sediments Behaviour at Basin and Geological Time Scales
61st EAGE Conference and Exhibition, 1999Basin modelling aims to reconstruct the accumulation of hydrocarbons at basin scale, and at geological time scale, taking into account the effects of kinematics displacements, sedimentation, erosion, compaction, temperatures history, overpressures and fluids flows (water and hydrocarbons).

AAPG Bulletin, 1972
Drilling on the Shatsky Rise shows that only subtle changes in the lithology, mineralogy, and physical properties of the calcareous nannoplankton ooze occur across a major unconformity. Sediments above the unconformity are late Miocene and younger, and contain an eolian and andesitic volcanic contribution in addition to the dominant pelagic calcareous ...

Origin of perylene in ancient sediments and its geological significance
Organic Geochemistry, 2000The distributions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediments of three Upper Triassic to Middle Jurassic sedimentary sequences from the Northern Carnarvon Basin, Australia have been investigated. Perylene was found to be a major PAH component in the top Lower to base Middle Jurassic sediments that are immature or at low maturity.

Recognition of Playa Sediments in the Geologic Column.: ABSTRACT
AAPG Bulletin, 1953Playa sediments are sometimes reported in oil-well cuttings, particularly in sediments whose age End_Page 2780------------------------------ is Miocene or younger. A careful investigation of the sedimentary properties of playa sediments of the present has revealed certain characteristics which it is believed will enable the geologist to definitely ...
