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

Sedimentology, 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 ...

Conditions and timing for the precipitation of early marine diagenetic dolomite in the Triassic Dolomia Principale (northern Italy)

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thermodynamic constraints and empirical evidence often suggest that fabric‐retentive replacement dolomites are stable carbonate minerals that preserve ancient seawater properties. This study evaluates this hypothesis by examining the Upper Triassic Dolomia Principale in Northern Italy.

Reservoir potential of the Haymana Formation submarine-fan sandstones in the Haymana Basin of Turkey

Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2019
Sedimentological and petrographic studies of the Haymana Formation sandstones identify a submarine fan in the Haymana Basin. This study is confined to outcrop samples from the submarine-fan sandstones (the L1, L2, and L3 sections) and focuses on ...

Four Decades of Research at the MADE Site and Beyond: Advancing the Understanding and Modeling of Solute Transport in Heterogeneous Media

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Spatial heterogeneity, manifested as strong variability in hydraulic conductivity (K) within geological formations, exerts a fundamental control on groundwater flow and solute transport. Because K can vary over multiple orders of magnitude in complex three‐dimensional patterns, predicting contaminant plume migration remains a long‐standing ...

Lithofacies and Pebble Morphogenesis: Keys to Paleoenvironmental Interpretation of the Nkporo Formation, Afikpo Sub-Basin, Nigeria [PDF]

, 2012
The Nkporo Formation in the Afikpo Subbasin, Nigeria, is dominantly shaly but contains two sandstone members within it. These sandstones host vein quartz pebble beds and dispersed clasts which have been used for pebble morphometric analysis.

Onset of Thrusting at ca. 23 Ma in East Kunlun Mountains, Northern Tibet, Recorded by Syntectonic Strata

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract The timing of Cenozoic deformation in the East Kunlun Mountains, northern Tibet, is crucial for understanding plateau growth but remains disputed due to the scarcity of direct chronological constraints on specific tectonic structures. Here, we present a high‐density‐sampling magnetostratigraphic record from the Xiaohongshan section, interior ...

Machine Learning Approaches for Predicting Total Organic Carbon From Petrophysical Well Logs in the Wufeng–Longmaxi Shale, Southeast Sichuan Basin, China

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 4, October 2026.
This study demonstrates the application of machine learning models—Random Forest, XGBoost, and Multiple Linear Regression—to predict Total Organic Carbon (TOC) from well logs, significantly improving TOC prediction accuracy and reliability across diverse geological settings compared to traditional log‐based methods.

Theoretical innovation and applications of ore-field tectonic lithofacies mapping

Dizhi lixue xuebao
Objective   In the matter of material architecture, the diagenetic-metallogenic system may be classified into lithofacies of root-feeders (metallogenic material feeders), lithofacies of structural channel (migration of diagenetic-metallogenic material ...
