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

open access: yesSedimentology, 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

open access: yesSedimentology, 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

open access: yesSedimentology, 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

open access: yesSedimentology, 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

open access: yesSedimentology, 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 ...
