Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy Applied to Reservoir Recognition and Evolution on Marine Carbonatic Ramp—Macaé Group (Albian to Cenomanian) of Campos Basin

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
A classic oil producing interval of the Campos Basin—Macaé Group is revisited through seismic stratigraphic analysis, providing a stratigraphic framework, characteristic depositional and relative time positioning for several complex structural settings.

Pothole detection and segmentation in the Bushveld Complex using physics-based data augmentation and deep learning

Applied Computing and Geosciences
Potholes are local depression structures that disrupt stratigraphic continuity, such as in layered igneous intrusions. In the Bushveld Complex (South Africa), potholes range from a few to hundreds of meters in width, and may disrupt orebodies, cause ore ...

Characteristics of Gravity Flow Deposits in the Benin Basin (Benin) and Implications for Oil and Gas Exploration

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the underexplored Benin Basin features a narrow shelf and steep slope, which promoted the development of multi‐phase, stacked channel‐lobe complexes. These gravity flow deposits, further enhanced by bottom current reworking, reveal a significant undiscovered Upper Cretaceous stratigraphic play with considerable petroleum ...

Miocene to Quaternary Tectonostratigraphic Evolution of the Northern Section of the Burdur‐Fethiye Shear Zone, South‐Western Türkiye

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
New zircon ages reveal that lacustrine sedimentation initiated in the Late Miocene (Messinian), revising earlier Pliocene age assignments. The study results support the interpretation of the northern BFSZ as a broad left‐lateral transtensional shear zone rather than a discrete sinistral fault or simple extensional graben array.

Post‐Miocene Transtensional Opening of the Northern Red Sea

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The mechanism of opening, as well as the crustal characteristics of the northern Red Sea are subject of ongoing controversial scientific debate. With the objective of elucidating the nature of rifting in this area, a grid of 2D multi‐channel reflection ...

New constraints on the postglacial evolution of Lago Maggiore, Northern Italy

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lago Maggiore is situated in an overdeepened valley reach at the southern margin of the European Alps, and its thick sediment infill allows the reconstruction of the postglacial valley and lake evolution. We study here the sedimentary succession in the lower Ossola Valley, which is infilled by ~500 m of deposits. In a marginal position, a core

A Phase‐Field Model for Quasi‐Dynamic Rupture Nucleation and Propagation of In‐Plane Faults

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Computational modeling of faulting processes is an essential tool for understanding earthquake mechanics but remains challenging due to the structural and material complexities of fault zones. The phase‐field method has recently enabled unified modeling of fault propagation and off‐fault damage within a fracture‐mechanics‐based framework ...

Monitoring shallow geothermal aquifers with active‐source distributed acoustic sensing: A prognostic feasibility study on the University of Leeds Geothermal Campus

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Kingdom's shallow aquifers offer significant but underdeveloped geothermal energy resource. Seismic methods can help address this by improving the understanding of aquifer heterogeneity and potentially allowing long‐term monitoring of thermal plumes.

Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.
