First Documentation of Large Submarine Sinkholes on the Ganquan Carbonate Platform in the Xisha Islands, South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Submarine sinkholes are unique and important geomorphological features with a typical cavity structure that are of great scientific value. Submarine sinkholes were discovered for the first time in the isolated Ganquan carbonate platform on the Xisha ...

Tectonic evolution and depositional response in southern continental marginal basins of South China Sea during period of rift-drift-foreland: A case study from the Liyue Basin

open access: yes地质科技通报, 2021
Based on the analysis of tectonics-stratigraphy-sedimentology in Liyue Basin, this paper finds out the characteristics of tectonic evolution and sedimentary fillings, reveals the genetic relationship between the basin evolution and the spreading of the ...

Eustatic, Climatic, and Oceanographic Influences on Geomorphology and Architecture of Isolated Carbonate Platforms: Miocene, Northwest Shelf, Australia

open access: yesLithosphere, 2020
The Miocene represents an interval of marked global change, and this evolution is reflected in carbonate platforms from this epoch. Seismic stratigraphic characterization of high-resolution (ca 60 Hz) 3D seismic data from the Browse Basin, offshore ...

Synchroneity of major late Neogene sea level fluctuations and paleoceanographically controlled changes as recorded by two carbonate platforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Shallow-water carbonate systems are reliable recorders of sea level fluctuations and changes in ambient seawater conditions. Drilling results from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Legs 133 and 166 indicate that the timing of late Neogene sedimentary breaks ...

Palustrine Sediments between Two Isolated Shallow Carbonate Platforms (Aptian–Albian Transition, Prebetic of Jaén, South Spain)

open access: yesMinerals, 2022
During the Aptian-Albian transition, an extensional phase of the Central Atlantic which affected the Prebetic carbonate platform (South Iberian Continental Margin, northwestern margin of the Tethys) occurred.

Anatomy of cretaceous isolated carbonate platforms of the western Gulf of Mexico

open access: yes, 2022
Shallow-water carbonate platforms are ecosystems sensitive to changes in the ocean-atmosphere dynamics. Their stratal architecture, dominant biota, and vertical and lateral facies distributions are largely controlled by eustatic sea-level fluctuations ...

Tectonic paleogeography of Late Sinian and its significances for petroleum exploration in the middle-upper Yangtze region, South China

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2020
The paleotectonic pattern, lithofacies paleogeographic features, sedimentary evolution and its controlling effects on hydrocarbon accumulation assemblages during the depositional period of the Sinian Dengying Formation in middle-upper Yangtze region were

The record of the early Toarcian and early Aptian oceanic anoxic events in the Apenninic Carbonate Platform (Southern Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
About one third of the carbon dioxide released mainly from burning of fossil fuels is absorbed into the oceans where it reacts to form carbonic acid.

Sea level changes versus hydrothermal diagenesis: Origin of Triassic carbonate platform cycles in the Dolomites, Italy: Discussion [PDF]

open access: yes
In his recent paper, Blendinger (2004) presents a new and unconventional hypothesis for the formation of the Triassic Latemàr carbonate cycles. He assigned the cycles to intermittent hydrothermal influence alternating with normal marine deposition ...
