No need to seed: restoring species‐rich grassland on former arable fields by natural regeneration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over the last century, agricultural intensification has caused substantial losses of semi‐natural species‐rich grasslands. One means of restoring grassland habitat is to abandon farmed land, followed by mowing and/or grazing of the established vegetation to facilitate meadow diversification. Objectives This study investigated post‐

Contourite erosional and depositional features of the Maastrichtian chalk on Jasmund peninsula (Rügen island, NE Germany)

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seismic‐scale features such as deeply incised submarine valleys and mounded drifts together with ichnological features indicative of discontinuous sedimentation and erosional episodes have recently been documented from the Upper Cretaceous chalk in the southern Baltic Sea area.

Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

Coupled plagioclase dissolution and K‐feldspar overgrowth precipitation preserve anomalously high permeability in deeply buried sandstones

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the formation mechanism responsible for anomalously high permeability (AHP) observed in the Eocene sandstones at depths from 3824 to 3832 m in the Huizhou Sag, Pearl River Mouth Basin, China, using helium porosity and permeability measurements, thin section, scanning electron microscopy, electron probe X‐ray ...

Drowned carbonate‐rimmed margin controlling shelf‐edge delta progradation and sedimentation dynamics: Upper Cretaceous Woodbine Formation, Texas, USA

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shelf‐edge deltas are commonly interpreted to record basinward facies migration across uninterrupted, gently dipping shelf margins; however, examples from mixed siliciclastic‐carbonate margins reveal more complex depositional dynamics. Periods and areas of carbonate sedimentation within mixed siliciclastic‐carbonate margins can modify shelf ...
