Carbonate sedimentology: An evolved discipline

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Although admired and examined since antiquity, carbonate sediment and rock research really began with Charles Darwin who, during a discovery phase, studied, documented and interpreted their nature in the mid‐19th century. The modern discipline, however, really began after World War II and evolved in two distinct phases.

Astronomical pacing of the global silica cycle recorded in Mesozoic bedded cherts

Nature Communications, 2017
The global silica cycle is an important component of the long-term climate system, yet its controlling factors are largely uncertain due to poorly constrained proxy records.

Deciphering depositional controls and evolution of a lacustrine supradetachment basin through facies analysis: Gördes Basin, Western Türkiye

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The lacustrine Gördes Supradetachment Basin was developed along the Simav detachment fault during postorogenic extension in the north of the Menderes Massif in western Anatolia. The basin‐fill succession is represented by alluvial fan, Gilbert‐type delta, shoal‐water delta, foreshore, shoreface, offshore‐transition and peat‐forming mire deposits.

Enrichment characteristics and resource potential of continental shale oil in Mesozoic Yanchang Formation, Ordos Basin

Shiyou shiyan dizhi, 2020
The Chang 7 Member of the Mesozoic Yanchang Formation in the Ordos Basin mainly developed as a semi-deep to deep lacustrine mudstone and shale.It is the main oil-rich source bed for the Mesozoic reservoir in the basin. Compared with North American marine

A bottom-up perspective on ecosystem change in Mesozoic oceans

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2016
Mesozoic and Early Cenozoic marine animals across multiple phyla record secular trends in morphology, environmental distribution, and inferred behaviour that are parsimoniously explained in terms of increased selection pressure from durophagous predators.

Organoclay interaction response to sedimentary environment and sources in Paleogene shales from the Nanpu Sag: Insights for organic matter accumulation mechanism

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The deep paleo‐lake, characterised by low energy and moderate salinity, facilitated the input of fine‐grained minerals and the development of aquatic organic matter. Under the combined influence of the sedimentary environment and material source, mineral‐bound organic matter was formed, which played a crucial role in the enrichment of organic matter ...

Overview of geothermal resource exploration and development in North Africa

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This article reviews geothermal exploration in North Africa, highlighting key activities, government policies, and exploration findings across Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt. The region's substantial geothermal potential, driven by tectonic activity, positions it to play a significant role in the global geothermal energy ...

Carbon Storage in Fold‐and‐Thrust Belts: An Overlooked Gigatonne Storage Opportunity

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents numerical investigations of the trapping characteristics of fold‐and‐thrust belt structures, defining three carbon capture and storage (CCS) play types that could be used to store commercial volumes (millions of tonnes) of CO2.

U and Th content in the Central Apennines continental crust: a contribution to the determination of the geo-neutrinos flux at LNGS

, 2011
The regional contribution to the geo-neutrino signal at Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) was determined based on a detailed geological, geochemical and geophysical study of the region.
