ABSTRACT In‐depth ichnological and sedimentological analyses of the Cenomanian–Turonian boundary Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE2) from the Western Interior Seaway of west‐central Alberta reveal a persistent physico‐chemically stressed setting. The interval is characterised by a dominantly diminutive and diminished ichnological assemblage, with familiar ...

Facies analysis provides new insights into event bed deposition in a hadal trench environment
ABSTRACT Hadal trenches preserve exceptional sedimentary archives of past geological events, yet their depositional processes remain poorly constrained. The Japan Trench captures complex earthquake‐triggered event beds that record repeated sediment‐gravity flows that deliver terrigenous and biogenic material into the trench, informing palaeoseismic ...

Spatial and Seasonal Studies of Sedimentological and Neoichnological Characteristics from Mangrove areas of Karachi, Pakistan [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to appraise the physicochemical properties of mangrove sediments and their influence on neoichnological properties produced by different crab species from Korangi Creek (S1) and Sandspit backwater areas (S2 and S3), Karachi ...

Expanding the Ichnofacies Model to Tidal Straits: Testing Predictions and Assessing Anomalies
ABSTRACT Trace fossils are instrumental in facies analysis, but some depositional environments remain underexplored. Cenozoic deposits in Italy have been studied to evaluate the ichnology of tidal straits. These comprise four zones: (1) strait centre, (2) dune‐bedded strait zone, (3) strait end and (4) strait margin.

Tunasniyoj, a dinosaur tracksite from the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary of Bolivia
Here we report a superbly preserved and profusely represented five-ichnotaxa dinosaur track assemblage near Icla village, 100 km southeast of Sucre, Bolivia.

NATURAL CASTS OF ENTOBIA FROM THE LATE CAENOZOIC OF SICILY
As with other ichnofossils, the study of the ichogenus Entobia Bronn, 1837, attributed to the activity of boring sponges, is useful to understand taphonomic processes and reconstruct paleoenvironments. Here we delineate a diverse Entobia assemblage from

Cambrian Trace Fossil Zoophycos from the Czech Republic
Lobate and helical ichnofossils attributable to Zoophycos found in Middle Cambrian shales of the Palác Hill in the Železné Hory Mountains (eastern Bohemia) represent the oldest occurrence of this ichnogenus.

Formation, preservation, and interpretation of dinosaur tracks
Abstract The fossilized tracks of dinosaurs were first reported in the scientific literature in 1836, not long after Buckland's discovery of Megalosaurus. Tracks record aspects of dinosaur locomotion, diversity, and ecology. To recover this information from a track requires an understanding of the track forming process.

ABSTRACT Invertebrate burrow morphologies and distributions are presented for the tidal flats of the middle and lower reaches of the tide‐influenced (mesotidal), mud‐dominated Mira River estuary (SW Portugal) as an analogue for interpreting the ichnology of palaeoestuarine successions.
