Holocene shoreline displacement and the impact of the Storegga tsunami on Hinnøya, northern Norway

Boreas, EarlyView.
The Holocene relative sea‐level (RSL) history of Norway's largest island, Hinnøya, has been investigated in detail, using sediment records from 25 isolation basins. The sediments were analysed for macrofossil and phytoplankton content, which served as the basis for identifying marine–lacustrine transitions, that is isolation contacts. Terrestrial plant

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.

(Ultra)high‐Pressure Metamorphism in Sedimentary Versus Basaltic Rocks: Insights From a Variscan Mélange in the South Carpathians

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reconstructing the pressure–temperature–time (P–T–t) evolution of (ultra)high‐pressure rocks is essential for constraining subduction and collisional dynamics. Subduction zones are often investigated using basic eclogites, whereas nonbasic high‐pressure rocks remain comparatively understudied, potentially hindering a comprehensive ...

Comparative histological analysis of vertebrates reveals Triassic climate variability across southern Pangea

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Bone tissues of Triassic taxa reveal life history signals consistent with climatic variation across southern Pangea, spanning present‐day Brazil, Argentina, Zimbabwe, and India. Slower growth patterns within the Zimbabwean assemblage suggest a comparatively more arid intracontinental environment than those closer to the coast. Artwork by Andrey Atuchin.

A review on the definitions of terms of sedimentary facies [PDF]

Journal of Palaeogeography, 2019
AbstractIn recent years, in some papers and manuscripts published in and submitted to the Journal of Palaeogeography (Chinese Edition and English Edition), the authors named the rocks or rock types as “microfacies” or “lithofacies”, named the microfeatures in thin-sections under microscope as “microfacies”, and named the macrofeatures of rocks as ...

The Unexpected Discovery of Paleocene? Coals in Outcrops Thought to Be Cambrian, Al Huqf, Oman

Journal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Two brown organic deposits were encountered whilst investigating kaolinitic claystones thought to occur at the base of a Cambrian formation at outcrop. The age of these organic deposits is probably Paleocene from palynology. Organic petrography shows that they are subbituminous coals with some oil source potential.

Evolution, Routing and Reservoir Characteristics of Submarine Channels in a Structurally Deforming Slope Setting: Deep‐Water Joint Development Zone of Nigeria and São Tomé and Príncipe

Journal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep‐water slope channels and associated facies are a major part of clastic sediment dispersal system extending from the shelf‐edge to the abyssal plain. The toe‐thrust area of the deep‐water Niger Delta enables the analysis of these channels and their interaction with evolving fault‐controlled sea‐floor topography to be determined ...
