Late Ordovician ironstone and its relation to ocean redox instability, climate and glaciation
Abstract The Upper Ordovician (Katian) Neda Formation, a phosphatic ironstone, records a widespread but short‐lived shift to ferruginous waters across a vast epicontinental area. Lithofacies and stratigraphic reappraisal indicate that Neda ironstone deposition occurred on a storm‐dominated ramp when coastal upwelling emplaced eutrophic ferruginous ...

ABSTRACT An ostracod assemblage from the Late Ordovician (Katian) Phu Ngu Formation of northern Vietnam, South China paleoplate, yields typical Baltic and Laurentian‐affinity genera together with some endemic forms. Detailed paleontological and sedimentary analysis of the Phu Ngu Formation suggests it was deposited in a deeper marine forearc setting ...

Black Shale Lithofacies of the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation in the Southeast Margin of Chongqing, China
China’s shale gas has undergone nearly 20 years of exploration; unconventional oil and gas geological evaluation theories and research methods have been greatly enriched, but how to quickly, conveniently, and accurately identify the sweet spots of shale gas is still puzzling many researchers. This study focuses on the black shale of the Wufeng–Longmaxi

Unconventional tight/shale gas reservoirs have gained significant attention in the energy sector. The importance of temperature and pressure in shale imbibition lies in their profound influence on the kinetics, rate, and ultimate amount of water uptake, which directly impacts the efficiency of gas production.

A database of detrital zircon geochronology ages of Cambrian to Paleogene deposits in South China
Here, we had collect a database about the South China Phanerozoic detrital zircon geochronology data, and we published the database in DDE. We marked Kernel density estimates, ɛHf(t) vs. U‐Pb ages and the best age‐based multidimensional scaling plot from South China. Abstract Complications of detrital zircons databases provide a means for statistically

ABSTRACT The 47 vertebrate type specimens held in the University of Otago Geology Department are catalogued in detail. A short history of the collection is followed by lists of the type specimens under the Classes Actinopterygii, Reptilia, Aves and Mammalia. A fish trace‐fossil is included at the end of the Actinopterygii.

The many ways toward punctuated evolution
Abstract Punctuated equilibria is a theory of evolution that suggests that species go through periods of stability followed by sudden changes in phenotype. This theory has been debated for decades in evolutionary biology, but recent findings of stasis and punctuated change in evolutionary systems such as tumour dynamics, viral evolution, and artificial
