A drift isopach model for the southwestern Great Slave Lake region, Northwest Territories, Canada
This study produced a drift thickness model for the southwestern Great Slave Lake area of northern Canada, using 12,692 lithostratigraphic records (seismic shothole drillers’ logs, diamond drill holes, petroleum wells), and field observations.

The earliest Paleoproterozoic supracrustal rocks in Koillismaa, northern Finland - Their petrographic and geochemical characteristics and lithostratigraphy [PDF]
The 2.44 Ga Koillismaa layered igneous complex (KLIC) in northern Finland is interpreted to have formed as a consequence of early Paleoproterozoic continental rifting.

Geology of the Piemonte-Ligurian units of the Urtier area (Northwestern Alps – Italy)
Detailed geological mapping of the Urtier Valley in the Western Alps allowed to realize a new geological map 1:10.000 in scale. In the mapped area, a complete nappe stack of the axial part of the Alpine belt crops out.

Definitions of Trollskär formation and Sandön formation in the Archipelago Sea, northern Baltic Sea [PDF]
The formal stratigraphy of Late-Quaternary late- and post-glacial sediments in the Archipelago Sea, northern Baltic Sea, is revised. The Trollskär Allomember and Sandön Allomember were previously incorrectly defined as allostratigraphic units based on an

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.
