Some aspects of the sedimentology of the superficial deposits of the Eden estuary, Fife [PDF]

, 2012
Little attention has previously boon given to the sediments of the Eden estuary, Fife, Scotland. This research was performed in order to identify, delineate and account for the observed sedimentary facies in the superficial sediments of

Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.

Sedimentary Architecture Prediction Using Facies Interpretation and Forward Seismic Modeling: Application to a Mediterranean Land–Sea Pliocene Infill (Roussillon Basin, France)

Geosciences
This study predicts sedimentary architectures and facies distribution within the Pliocene prograding prism of the Roussillon Basin (Gulf of Lion, France), developed along an onshore–offshore continuum.

The δCe-ΣREE Instruction on the Sedimentary Facies

Procedia Earth and Planetary Science, 2011
AbstractBased on the analysis of the rare earth elements (REEs) concentration, ratios and distribution pattern in the acid fractions at the Xiaohushan (XHS) section in Ejina basin. The results show that the δCe-ΣREE plot and regression equation can clearly distinguish sediments from lacustrine deposits and the eolian sand. The boundary can be described

Identifying and Interpreting Stratification in Sedimentary Rocks on Mars: Insight from Rover and Orbital Observations and Terrestrial Field Analogs [PDF]

, 2013
Sedimentary rocks on Mars provide insight into past aqueous and atmospheric processes, climate regimes, and potential habitability. The stratigraphic architecture of sedimentary rocks on Mars is similar to that of Earth, indicating that the processes ...

Modelling Patterns of Past Inundation Processes Combining Geoarchaeology and Morphometric Hydrological Analysis in the Shashe‐Limpopo Basin, South Africa

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverine and valley systems across the globe have been central to the development of past urban centres. By AD 900, the Shashe and Limpopo Rivers seem to have facilitated the interaction and integration of early farming communities in southern Africa. This paper focuses on the application of geoarchaeological perspectives made available by the

New insights into the development of the Late Jurassic Reuchenette Formation of NW Switzerland (late Oxfordian to late Kimmeridgian, Jura Mountains) [PDF]

, 2004
In the Ajoie-Region, seven in situ collected species of ammonites helped to establish a new biostratigraphical an dlithological frame for the platform sediments of the Reuchenette Formation, i.e.

Evaporitic Chert Provenance: Evaluating Petrographic and Geochemical Workflows for Source Discrimination

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chert tools were widely used in prehistory by human societies due to their knapping suitability and availability, but their relatively uniform composition, especially in evaporitic cherts, complicates sourcing, requiring specialised analytical methods.
