Early development of anoxia prior to the main euxinic phase of the Jenkyns Event on the margin of the Western Tethys (Sachrang Basin, Eastern Alps)

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although the global expansion of oxygen‐depleted marine environments during the Early Toarcian Jenkyns Event (or Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event) is primarily inferred from successions in the NW European epicontinental basins, the timing of the expansion of anoxia in Tethyan basins, where hydrography potentially played a minor role, is poorly ...

Drowned carbonate‐rimmed margin controlling shelf‐edge delta progradation and sedimentation dynamics: Upper Cretaceous Woodbine Formation, Texas, USA

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shelf‐edge deltas are commonly interpreted to record basinward facies migration across uninterrupted, gently dipping shelf margins; however, examples from mixed siliciclastic‐carbonate margins reveal more complex depositional dynamics. Periods and areas of carbonate sedimentation within mixed siliciclastic‐carbonate margins can modify shelf ...

Conditions and timing for the precipitation of early marine diagenetic dolomite in the Triassic Dolomia Principale (northern Italy)

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thermodynamic constraints and empirical evidence often suggest that fabric‐retentive replacement dolomites are stable carbonate minerals that preserve ancient seawater properties. This study evaluates this hypothesis by examining the Upper Triassic Dolomia Principale in Northern Italy.

Siliceous sponges or seawater as a silicon source? Tracing silicon burial pathways of the Upper Cretaceous opal‐CT deposits using δ30Si and δ7Li

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classical models of formation of sedimentary siliceous rocks (flint, chert, opoka) commonly assume that the Cretaceous marine silicon (Si) cycle was primarily biologically controlled, broadly analogous to the modern ocean. In this framework, siliceous sponges are regarded as the principal source of dissolved silica (dSi) to sediment porewaters,

Quantification of dryland depositional environments across contrasting fluvio‐aeolian and fluvio‐lacustrine transects: An integrated subsurface and outcrop analogue study of the Organ Rock Formation, Utah, USA

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The standard subdivision of a distributive fluvial system (DFS) into proximal, medial and distal zones is typically based on the proportion of channel bodies and/or the degree of channel amalgamation, reflecting a downstream fining trend towards a mud‐prone terminal pinch‐out.

Downcurrent variation in submarine channel‐fill architecture from the shelf to upper slope

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition between the shelf and the upper slope is often considered an area of sediment bypass, where steeper gradients increase flow velocities and maintain particles in suspension. In addition to transferring sediments into deeper basins, upper‐slope areas can also host channelised submarine deposits.

Perennially ice‐covered lake facies as proxies for ice cover properties and climate: Insights from Lake Joyce, Antarctica

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Process‐based depositional models for perennially ice‐covered lakes (PICLs) are important for interpreting palaeolake deposits and their connection to past climate. PICLs are only stable under specific climate states, and unlike other ice‐free or seasonally ice‐covered lakes, PICL deposits generally have bimodal grain sizes: mud introduced by ...

The effects of sedimentary facies and diagenesis on pore structure: in the sandstones of Paleogene Formation of Nanpu Sag, China to be more representative to the results and discussion

Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
The pore structure of sandstone reservoir, primarily influenced by depositional parameters and diagenetic features, is crucial for petroleum engineering and petrophysics.

U–Pb Dating of Cambrian Magmatism in the Pinerolo‐Sanfront Unit, Dora‐Maira Massif (Western Alps)

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pinerolo‐Sanfront Unit (PSU), the structurally lowest tectonic unit of the Dora‐Maira Massif (Western Alps), has been regarded as a monocyclic unit composed of Permo‐Carboniferous sediments and Permian granitoids that were metamorphosed during the Alpine orogeny.
