Petroleum Exploration and Development, 2018 Taking organic-rich shale in the first member of Cretaceous Qingshankou Formation in the Gulong Sag, northern Songliao Basin as an example, this study examined the lithofacies classification, petrological characteristics, pore size distribution and their

Interglacials, Milankovitch Cycles, Solar Activity, and Carbon Dioxide [PDF]
Journal of Climatology, 2014 The existing understanding of interglacial periods is that they are initiated by Milankovitch cycles enhanced by rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations. During interglacials, global temperature is also believed to be primarily controlled by carbon dioxide concentrations, modulated by internal processes such as the Pacific Decadal Oscillation

Late Quaternary record of 100 ka depositional cycles on the Larache shelf (NW Morocco)
Open GeosciencesThis study examines the stratigraphic architecture of the Upper Pleistocene on the Larache margin, NW Moroccan Atlantic, focusing on the impact of glacio-eustatic cycles. Utilizing seismic analysis, we identified four major seismic sequences (UD, UC, UB,

Milankovitch cycles in an equatorial delta from the Miocene of Borneo
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2017 The factors controlling sedimentary cyclicity in deltaic systems are a subject of intense debate, and more research, in different deltaic environments and time periods, is needed to better understand the possible mechanisms. Offshore and Pleistocene case studies are more common than proximal and more ancient, greenhouse-climate examples.

Would Adding the Anthropocene to the Geologic Time Scale Matter?
AGU AdvancesAbrupt planetary change forced by the cumulative and overwhelming impacts of human activities in the mid‐twentieth century supports a new geologic epoch, named after Anthropos, the agent of this change.

Integrated bio- and cyclostratigraphy of Middle Triassic (Anisian) ramp deposits, NW Bulgaria
Geologica Carpathica, 2019 A cyclostratigraphic interpretation of peritidal to shallow-marine ramp deposits of the early Middle Triassic (Anisian) Opletnya Member exposed in outcrops along the Iskar River gorge, NW Bulgaria, is presented.

The Milankovitch Theory Revisited to Explain the Mid-Pleistocene and Early Quaternary Transitions
AtmosphereThe theory of orbital forcing as formulated by Milankovitch involves the mediation by the advance (retreat) of ice sheets and the resulting variations in terrestrial albedo. This approach poses a major problem: that of the period of glacial cycles, which

The Dependence of Earth Milankovitch Cycles on Martian Mass
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the PacificAbstract The Milankovitch cycles of Earth result from gravitational interactions with other bodies in the solar system. These interactions lead to slow changes in the orbit and angular momentum vector of Earth, and correspondingly influence Earth’s climate evolution. Several studies have shown that Mars may play a
