Post-rift sequence architecture and stratigraphy in the Oligo-Miocene Sardinia rift (Western Mediterranean Sea) [PDF]
, 2017 Rift basins provide important sedimentary archives to reconstruct past tectonic and climatic conditions. Understanding their sedimentary history is, however, largely hampered by the competing influence of tectonic versus climatic forcing. The aim of this

Lacustrine and fan‐delta sediments in syn‐rift lake basins
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A consistent model for the sequence framework and depositional pattern of asymmetric half‐grabens in syn‐rift lake basins bounded by active faults has been established, complementing existing models for marine rift successions. Syn‐rift lake basins are characterised by relatively small dimensions, steep slopes, poorly developed shoreline strata ...

On building and fitting a spatio-temporal change-point model for settlement and growth at Bourewa, Fiji Islands [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 The Bourewa beach site on the Rove Peninsula of Viti Levu is the earliest known human settlement in the Fiji Islands. How did the settlement at Bourewa develop in space and time? We have radiocarbon dates on sixty specimens, found in association with evidence for human presence, taken from pits across the site.

On the Connections Between Surficial Processes and Stratigraphy in River Deltas [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 We explore connections between surficial deltaic processes (e.g. avulsion, deposition) and the stratigraphic record using a simple numerical model of delta-plain evolution, with the aim of constraining these connections and thus improving prediction of subsurface features.

Timing of initiation of reverse displacement on the Taranaki Fault, northern Taranaki Basin: Constraints from the on land record (Oligocene Te Kuiti Group) [PDF]
, 2008 Structures associated with the wedge of basement overthrust into Taranaki Basin along the Taranaki Fault, are regarded as hydrocarbon plays and have been tested by drilling through the tip of the overthrust.

Late Miocene to early Pliocene biofacies of Wanganui and Taranaki Basins, New Zealand: Applications to paleoenvironmental and sequence stratigraphic analysis [PDF]
, 2004 The Matemateaonga Formation is late Miocene to early Pliocene (upper Tongaporutuan to lower Opoitian New Zealand Stages) in age. The formation comprises chiefly shellbeds, siliciclastic sandstone, and siltstone units and to a lesser extent non-marine and

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A limestone cave in the NW Dinarides exhibits an anomalous presence of montmorillonite clay, not commonly found in surrounding caves, posing questions about its origin and age. Analysis reveals a composition similar to weathered tephra from the Smrekovec Volcanic Complex, suggesting transport by north‐east winds.
