Magnetostratigraphic correlation of the Oxfordian–Kimmeridgian boundary

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2010
A magnetic polarity pattern for Boreal and Sub-Boreal ammonite zones of the Upper Oxfordian to Lower Kimmeridgian was established and confirmed in four British sections, including the proposed Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) on the Isle of Skye (Scotland) to define the base of the international Kimmeridgian Stage.

The water retention properties of the Callovo-Oxfordian claystone

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences, 2013
Abstract A possible option for the disposal of high level long lived radioactive waste is to store the waste in galleries excavated at great depth in clays or claystones. In such conditions, the walls of the galleries will be successively subjected to desaturation induced by ventilation followed by resaturation once the galleries are closed.

The Thermal Volume Changes of the Callovo–Oxfordian Claystone

Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2013
There are very few data on the thermoplastic behaviour of claystones, while their knowledge is necessary in understanding long-term behaviour of high-level radioactive waste confining systems. In this paper, a number of thermomechanical parameters of the Callovo–Oxfordian claystone, the possible host rock of radioactive waste in France, are presented ...

Diffusion of anionic species in Callovo-Oxfordian argillites and Oxfordian limestones (Meuse/Haute–Marne, France)

Applied Geochemistry, 2008
Abstract Diffusive parameters of tritiated water (HTO) and several anionic tracers (36Cl−, 125I−, 35 SO 4 2 - and 75 SeO 3 2 - ) were determined in the Callovo-Oxfordian argillite formation (Meuse/Haute–Marne, France), and also in the Oxfordian limestone formation, located just above.

The Cuban Oxfordian herpetofauna in the Caribbean Seaway

Neues Jahrbuch für Geologie und Paläontologie - Abhandlungen, 2006
The Oxfordian reptiles recorded in Cuba provide evidence of how the Caribbean Seaway acted as habitat and/or corridor for numerous pelagic predator groups, and even for those, such as pterosaurs, that flew over the area. The com- position of the herpetofauna is provided as an Appendix, while remarks on the geologic setting, stratigraphic position, age,

Investigating the Microstructure of Compacted Crushed Callovo-Oxfordian Argillite

Soil Behavior and Geo-Micromechanics, 2010
Some aspects of the macroscopic geotechnical behavior of compacted soils are highly related to their microstructure. This paper presents a qualitative and quantitative microstructure investigation of compacted samples made up of crushed Callovo-Oxfordian argillite.

Upper Oxfordian palaeogeography of southern England

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 1968
Abstract The Upper Oxfordian of southern England consists of a variable series of clays, sands and limestones known as the Corallian Beds. Six sedimentary facies are distinguished: (1) phyllosilicate clay facies (background sedimentation to other facies); (2) quartz sand facies (intertidal sands); (3) coralline facies (coral patch reefs and ...
