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

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

Solid Earth SciencesMarine terrestrial transitional sedimentary rocks of Renlou Coal Mine are developed in coal bearing rock formations, which exhibits obvious cyclicity. These sedimentary cycles have a good correspondence with astronomical cycle signals.

Global Carbon Cycle Recorded in the Deep-sea Sediments and Milankovitch Cycle.
Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1995 Several hundred years of astronomical observations have left no doubt that the Earth's orbit is subject to cyclic variations. While the annual energy receipt of solar radiation over the Earth as a whole is not change, the distribution of this energy, by latitude and by season, is affected by three parameters: an obliquity cycle of 41kyr, an ...
