Intercalibration of Boreal and Tethyan timescales: the magneto-biostratigraphy of the Middle Triassic and the latest Early Triassic from Spitsbergen, Arctic Norway [PDF]

, 2008
An integrated bio-magnetostratigraphic study of the latest Early Triassic to the upper parts of the Middle Triassic, at Milne Edwardsfjellet in central Spitsbergen, Svalbard, allows a detailed correlation of Boreal and Tethyan biostratigraphies.

Cryostratigraphy of Rhythmic Segregated Ice in Colluvium and Implications for Permafrost Slope Stability

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The amount and stratigraphic setting of ground ice in permafrost slopes is a key control on the style and magnitude of permafrost mass wasting. Understanding the spatial and stratigraphic variations in ground ice distribution on permafrost slopes is therefore a fundamental property in assessing the stability of permafrost hillslopes.

Integrated astrochronology, sequence stratigraphy, and chronostratigraphy of a shallow marine sandy mudstone (Lower Jurassic, Redcar Mudstone Formation, Cleveland Basin, UK)

Sedimentologika
Cyclostratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy are cornerstone disciplines of modern sedimentary geology but are not commonly applied to the same study sections.

STRATIGRAFIA SEQUENZIALE DELLA SUCCESSIONE OLIGO-MIOCENICA DELLE LANGHE, BACINO TERZIARIO LIGURE-PIEMONTESE

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017
The Piedmont Tertiary Basin (PTB) is bounded southwards and westwards by the Western Alps, and northwards by the north-western end of the Apennines. It develops internally to a south-dipping suture zone, on a basement consisting of allochthonous alpine ...

Sequence stratigraphy in Proterozoic successions

Geology, 1988
Sedimentological logging and facies mapping have been used to identify depositional sequences bounded by subtle but regionally persistent unconformities in rocks of Proterozoic age in the western United States, South Australia, and northwestern Canada. We conclude from these studies that the sequence stratigraphic approach is of considerable importance

OSL Characterisation of Two Fluvial Sequences of the River Usmacinta in its Middle Catchment (SE Mexico) [PDF]

, 2014
The report summarizes luminescence profiling, initially using a SUERC PPSL system in Mexico, and laboratory analysis at SUERC, used to characterise the stratigraphy and interpret sedimentary processes in terrace deposits of the Usumacinta River, SE ...

Sequence stratigraphy, chemostratigraphy and facies analysis of Cambrian Series 2 – Series 3 boundary strata in northwestern Scotland [PDF]

, 2016
Globally, the Series 2 – Series 3 boundary of the Cambrian System coincides with a major carbon isotope excursion, sea-level changes and trilobite extinctions.

The Early Upper Palaeolithic in British caves: problems and potential Le Paléolithique supérieur ancien dans les grottes de Grande‐Bretagne : problèmes et potentiels

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Recent years have seen landmark progress in our understanding of early Homo sapiens occupation of Europe, owing to new excavations and the application of new analytical methods. Research on British sites, however, continues to lag. This is because of limitations inherent in existing cave collections, and limited options for new fieldwork at known sites.

Ordovician sequence stratigraphy and correlation in the Middle-Upper Yangtze region, South China

China Geology, 2018
: The precise correlation of the Ordovician successions in different facies is difficult due to the complex changes of the tecto-paleogeography in South China. Based on previous studies, the authors recognized 10 3rd grade sequences, i. e., Osq1 to Osq10

125 years of exploration and research at Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK) 125 ans d'exploration et de recherches à Gough's Cave (Somerset, Royaume‐Uni)

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Our understanding of the recolonization of northwest Europe in the period leading up to the Lateglacial Interstadial relies heavily on discoveries from Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK). Gough's Cave is the richest Late Upper Palaeolithic site in the British Isles, yielding an exceptional array of human remains, stone and organic artefacts, and butchered ...
