Seismic Imaging of Halokinetic Sequences and Structures With High‐Resolution, Dual‐Element Acquisition, and Processing: Applications to the Gassum Structure in Eastern Jutland, Denmark

Earth and Space Science
Understanding the structural intricacies of subsurface halokinetic formations is crucial for various geological applications, including geological capture and storage (geological carbon storage (GCS)).

Diagenetic controls on porosity evolution and pore type organisation in microporous carbonate rocks: Evidence for mesogenetic porosity formation

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microporous carbonate rocks typically record complex diagenetic histories driven by microbial activity and fluid interactions within multiple diagenetic environments. The relative roles of meteoric and burial diagenetic processes in pore evolution remain debated, particularly within Cretaceous carbonate systems of the Middle East, as does the ...

Physical simulation of hydrocarbon migration and accumulation in transport systems of allochthonous salt sheet development zone: a case study of Perdido Fold Belt in Burgos Basin, Gulf of Mexico

Shiyou shiyan dizhi
The Burgos Basin is a typical salt passive continental margin basin in the western Gulf of Mexico, rich in oil and gas resources. The allochthonous salt sheet development zone in the Perdido Fold Belt of the Burgos Basin has formed an oil and gas ...

Cenozoic tropical carbonate platforms in the Santos Basin, SE Brazilian Margin

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tropical carbonate platforms accompanied the latitudinal shifts of the tropical belt throughout the Cenozoic. Their flat‐topped geometries were influenced by a specific set of processes, including climate and sea‐level changes, carbonate facies, tectonics and continental runoff.

Geology of the Central High Atlas diapiric province (Rich-Imilchil): a cartographic synthesis

Journal of Maps
We present a geological map of the Central High Atlas of Morocco (excluding the mountain fronts), illustrating a structure consisting of narrow ridges of lower Jurassic carbonates, occasionally cored by Triassic Keuper rocks and basalt, or by mid-late ...

GLCM and k-means clustering for texture-based recognition of salt bodies in seismic images

Geofísica Internacional
Subsalt imaging and interpretation remain challenging tasks for oil and gas exploration, as well as for identifying suitable sites for storing large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide.

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

The Global South's OCBIL Theory Helps Elucidate Evolution, Ecology, and Conservation in Biological and Cultural Diversity

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Ecological theory has been shaped disproportionately by studies conducted in young, disturbance‐prone, relatively fertile landscapes (YODFELs), mostly in the Global North. Yet, many megadiverse regions in the Global South are dominated by old, climatically buffered, infertile landscapes (OCBILs), resulting in fundamentally different patterns that ...

Embodied, Enacted, and Multimodal: Exploring Science Teachers’ Metaphors in Authentic Classroom Contexts

Science Education, Volume 110, Issue 5, Page 1469-1496, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the past decades, science education research has extensively examined the role of metaphors in teaching and learning science. However, much of the existing research has focused on verbal manifestations of metaphors, thereby overlooking aspects of metaphors that may occur in non‐verbal form. This study reconceptualises metaphors as dynamic

Role of Faulting in Salt Deformation and Hydrocarbon Trapping in the Missan Oilfields, Southeastern Iraq

Geosciences
In the Missan oilfields, the linkage among basement faults, halokinesis, and hydrocarbon accumulation, and their control on structural-trap geometry and seal effectiveness, remains insufficiently constrained, especially the timing/drivers of salt ...
