Genetic mechanism of multi-scale sedimentary cycles and their impacts on shale-oil distribution in Permian Lucaogou Formation, Jimusar Sag, Junggar Basin

Unconventional Resources, 2023
Complex lithofacies of Lucaogou Formation in Jimusar Sag promote strong heterogeneity of oil distribution in fine grained sedimentary rocks. It is of great significance to define the formation mechanism of fine-grained sedimentary rocks for favorable ...

Development and controlling factors of shale lithofacies cycles in a continental rift basin: A case study of Es4u in the Boxing Subsag of Dongying Sag, Bohai Bay Basin, China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The shale of the upper Es4 formation (Es4u), deposited during the Eocene in the Boxing Subsag of the Dongying Sag, is a typical set of lime-rich lacustrine shale in a continental rift basin.

Utilizing Maximum Entropy Spectral Analysis (MESA) to identify Milankovitch cycles in Lower Member of Miocene Zhujiang Formation in north slope of Baiyun Sag, Pearl River Mouth Basin, South China Sea

Open Geosciences, 2019
Logs in the petroleum boreholes indirectly records the sedimentary cycles in the deep burial formation. In order to extract and understand the periodicity and cyclicity, it is necessary to process the data by digital signal analysis method.

Exo-Milankovitch Cycles. I. Orbits and Rotation States [PDF]

The Astronomical Journal, 2018
Abstract The obliquity of the Earth, which controls our seasons, varies by only ∼2.°5 over ∼40,000 years, and its eccentricity varies by only ∼0.05 over 100,000 years. Nonetheless, these small variations influence Earth’s ice ages. For exoplanets, however, variations can be significantly larger.

Milankovitch cycles for a circumstellar Earth-analog within α Centauri-like binaries [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
Abstract An Earth-analog orbiting within the habitable zone of α Centauri B was shown to undergo large variations in its obliquity, or axial tilt, which affects the planetary climate by altering the radiative flux for a given latitude. We examine the potential implications of these obliquity variations for climate through Milankovitch ...

Milankovitch cycles and carboniferous climate

Geophysical Research Letters, 1993
Cyclical Permo‐Carboniferous sea level fluctuations have long been linked to glacial‐interglacial fluctuations on Gondwanaland. Similar to the Pleistocene, such fluctuations may in turn have been driven by variations in orbital insolation forcing. Herein we report results from climate model simulations that examine the effect of Milankovitch insolation

Toward generalized Milankovitch theory (GMT) [PDF]

Climate of the Past
In recent decades, numerous paleoclimate records and results of model simulations have provided strong support for the astronomical theory of Quaternary glacial cycles formulated in its modern form by Milutin Milankovitch.

Milankovitch cycles and the astronomical time scale of the Zhujiang Formation in the Baiyun Sag, Pearl River Mouth Basin, China

Open Geosciences, 2022
The Zhujiang Formation in the Baiyun Sag, Pearl River Mouth Basin, China, is formed primarily in a deep-water continental slope environment. Its chronostratigraphic framework is based on biostratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy, and its geological ...
