Submarine lobe deposits of the Point Loma Formation, California: Quantifying event‐bed architecture and lateral heterogeneity [PDF]
AbstractOver the last several years, numerous outcrop localities have been revisited to add quantitative detail to submarine lobe facies models that previously focussed on facies relationships in a qualitative sense. This study utilises well‐exposed submarine lobe deposits of the Point Loma Formation in Cabrillo National Monument (San Diego, CA) to ...

ENSO Impacts on Lomas Formation in South Coastal Peru: Implications for the Pliocene? [PDF]
Lomas formations in southern Peru are related to moisture availability due to frequent incursions of fog in austral winter. Due to warming of coastal waters of southern Peru during El Niño, lomas formations are enhanced via greater moisture availability for fog and drizzle.

Quantifying the lateral heterogeneity of distal submarine lobe deposits, Point Loma Formation, California: Implications for subsurface lateral facies prediction [PDF]
AbstractSubmarine fan deposits are volumetrically the largest sediment accumulations on Earth and host significant hydrocarbon reserves. Extensive research has documented the bed‐scale architecture of high sand‐to‐mud ratio, proximal and axial environments, which can have bed thicknesses of several metres; however, less well‐understood are thin‐bedded ...

Myxomycete diversity in the coastal desert of Peru with emphasis on the lomas formations
Results obtained from the first survey for myxomycetes in the hyperarid areas of Peru are reported. Sampling over three consecutive years was carried out at 96 localities between 0 and 1500 m elevation. A total of 78 species from 23 genera in all 6 myxomycete orders were determined from 723 collections of myxomycetes.

Aa from lomas formations. A new Orchidaceae record from the desert coast of Peru
Las especies del género Aa han sido descritas como orquídeas restringidas generalmente a zonas altas de los Andes y montañas de Costa Rica. Se presenta el registro de poblaciones de Aa weddelliana a elevaciones más bajas, en formaciones de lomas en la costa desértica del Perú, siendo ésta la cuarta especie de Orchidaceae registrada para las ...

Quantification of the Bed-scale Architecture of Submarine Depositional Environments and Application to Lobe Deposits of the Point Loma Formation, California [PDF]
As of August 2018, this work is in review in "The Depositional Record", a journal from the IAS (International Association of Sedimentologists) Submarine-fan deposits form the largest sediment accumulations on Earth and host significant reservoirs for hydrocarbons.

Xenoma formation during microsporidial gill disease of salmonids caused by Loma salmonae is affected by host species (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, O. kisutch, O. mykiss) but not by salinity [PDF]
Host species and salinity often affect the development of disease in aquatic species. Eighty chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, 80 coho salmon O. kisutch and 80 rainbow trout O. mykiss were infected with Loma salmonae. Forty of each species were reared in seawater and 40 in freshwater.

Abstract Submarine fan deposits are important archives of Earth's history and serve as the record of turbidity current events that transfer large amounts of terrestrial sediment and carbon into the ocean. The geomorphology, depositional processes and facies architecture change significantly along the submarine‐fan depositional profile,
