Cyclicity and hierarchy in sequence stratigraphy: an integrated approach
With standardized methodology and nomenclature, the sequence stratigraphy aims to characterize multi-scale cyclical units of genetically related rocks into a hierarchical chronostratigraphic framework.

Sequence stratigraphy is the study of sediments and sedimentary rocks in terms of repetitively arranged facies and associated stratal geometry (Vail 1987; Van Wagoner et al 1988, 1990; Christie-Blick 1991).

Sequence Stratigraphy: Methodology and Nomenclature [PDF]
The recurrence of the same types of sequence stratigraphic surface through geologic time defines cycles of change in accommodation or sediment supply, which correspond to sequences in the rock record. These cycles may be symmetrical or asymmetrical, and may or may not include all types of systems tracts that may be expected within a fully developed ...

Sequence Stratigraphy towards its standardization—an important scientific scheme [PDF]
In the Post-Exxon Era of sequence stratigraphy, various sequence models for the complex stratigraphic records with their response mechanisms are developed. All the models with strong pertinence are endowed, which lead to misapprehension in the conceptual

High-Resolution Sequence Stratigraphy of the Mauddud Formation Southern Iraq
Inner ramp carbonate and dolomitic limestone made up the late Albian Mauddud reservoir in Iraq. An age estimate for the Mauddud Formation is late Albian to early Cenomanian, with it overlying the Nahr-Umr Formation and underlying the Ahmadi ...

Simulation-Based Inference of Surface Accumulation and Basal Melt Rates of an Antarctic Ice Shelf from Isochronal Layers [PDF]
The ice shelves buttressing the Antarctic ice sheet determine the rate of ice-discharge into the surrounding oceans. The geometry of ice shelves, and hence their buttressing strength, is determined by ice flow as well as by the local surface accumulation and basal melt rates, governed by atmospheric and oceanic conditions.

Stochastic resetting by a random amplitude [PDF]
Stochastic resetting, a diffusive process whose amplitude is "reset" to the origin at random times, is a vividly studied strategy to optimize encounter dynamics, e.g., in chemical reactions. We here generalize the resetting step by introducing a random resetting amplitude, such that the diffusing particle may be only partially reset towards the ...

Dielectric properties and stratigraphy of regolith in the lunar South Pole-Aitken basin: Observations from the Lunar Penetrating Radar [PDF]
We examine data obtained by the Lunar Penetrating Radar (LPR) onboard the Chang'E-4 (CE-4) mission to study the dielectric properties and stratigraphy of lunar regolith on the far side of the Moon. The data collected from January 2019 to September 2020 were processed to generate a 540 m radargram.

LITHOLOGICAL-FACIAL STRUCTURE OF THE UFA SEDIMENTS IN THE CENTRAL PART OF THE PERM KRAI
The relevance of the study is caused by the need to clarify the lithological-facies and sequence-stratigraphic structure of the sediments of the Uralian section of the Permian system.
