The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

The Lithofacies Association of Brown Shales In Kiliran Jao Subbasin, West Sumatra Indonesia
DOI:10.17014/ijog.2.2.77-90The lithofacies association, mainly lithology and depositional sequences of the Brown Shale Unit of Pematang Group was studied based on recent fieldwork at Karbindo Coal Mine, in Kiliran Jao Subbasin,West Sumatra, Indonesia ...

Antarctica has one of the most extreme environments on Earth, with low temperatures and low nutrient levels. Antarctica’s organisms live primarily in the coastal, ice-free areas which cover approximately 0.18% of the continent’s surface.

In most organic-rich shale reservoirs, dolomite is widely distributed and has different types and crystal sizes. However, the characteristics and formation mechanism of the dolomites in organic-rich shale are still poorly understood.

Evidence for the unique function of DHA during the evolution of the modern hominid brain
The African savanna ecosystem of the large mammals and primates was associated with a dramatic decline in relative brain capacity. This reduction happened to be associated with a decline in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from the food chain.

Despite current and projected future reliance on lithium (Li) as a resource, deficiencies remain in genesis models of closed‐basin Li brines. Subsurface geochemical interactions between water and bulk solid phases from lacustrine sediments, are shown ...

The lake is situated between 12° and 14°20 latitude north and between 13° and 15°20 longitude east. It occupies the entire part of a 25 000 km2 closed basin which has an outlet towards the Chad Bahr-el-Ghazal above the altitude of 283 m (Fig. I). Lake waters rise above this point only after several consecutive high river floods and then flow towards ...

The Paleogene-Neogene strata in the Western Depression of the Qaidam Basin represent a primary focus for oil and gas exploration and development. Influenced by both terrigenous clastic influx and endogenic carbonate deposition, these strata exhibit ...

Shale oil is hosted in nanopores of organic-rich shales, so pore characteristics are significant for shale oil accumulation. Here we analyzed pore characteristics of 39 lacustrine shale samples of the Late Cretaceous Qingshankou Formation (K2qn) in the ...
