Identification of Mass Transport Deposits and Insights into Gas Hydrate Accumulation in the Qiongdongnan Sea Area, Northern South China Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Accurately identifying the Bottom Simulating Reflector (BSR) is a crucial and fundamental task in seismic exploration and the interpretation of gas hydrates in marine areas.

Giant paleo-seafloor craters and mass wasting associated with magma-induced uplift of the upper crust

Scientific Reports, 2022
Giant seafloor craters are known along many a continental margin with recurrent mass-wasting deposits. However, the impact of breakup-related magmatism on the evolution of such craters is barely understood.

Meso-Scale Kinematic Indicators in Exhumed Mass Transport Deposits: Definitions and Implications [PDF]

, 2016
In this study we combine observations and analytical data from large-scale (10-100s of m-thick and 100 m(2)-extensive), siliciclastic and carbonate MTD/MTCs belonging to the Oligocene - Miocene foredeep and wedge-top successions of the Northern Apennines and the Paleocene - Eocene Friuli basin of the northwestern Dinarides (Italy and Slovenia), to ...

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Insight into the dynamics of a long-runout mass movement using single-grain feldspar luminescence in the Pokhara Valley, Nepal [PDF]

Geochronology
Mass movements play an important role in landscape evolution of high mountain areas such as the Himalayas. Yet, establishing numerical age control and reconstructing transport dynamics of past events is challenging.

Substrate Entrainment, Depositional Relief, and Sediment Capture: Impact of a Submarine Landslide on Flow Process and Sediment Supply

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Submarine landslides can generate complicated patterns of seafloor relief that influence subsequent flow behaviour and sediment dispersal patterns. In subsurface studies, the term mass transport deposits (MTDs) is commonly used and covers a range of ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Controlling Factors of Vertical Geochemical Variations in Hydrate-Rich Sediments at the Site GMGS5-W08 in the Qiongdongnan Basin, Northern South China Sea

Energies
Large amounts of natural gas hydrates have been discovered in the Qiongdongnan Basin (QDNB), South China Sea. The chemical and stable carbon isotopic composition shows that the hydrate-bound gas was a mixture of thermogenic and microbial gases.
