Sequence stratigraphy is a method and a model, and perhaps actually a paradigm, to make observations, interpretations, and predictions about strata, with important applications, from the search for hydrocarbons to an understanding of the geological ...

Towards a sequence stratigraphic solution set for autogenic processes and allogenic controls: Upper Cretaceous strata, Book Cliffs, Utah, USA [PDF]
Upper Cretaceous strata exposed in the Book Cliffs of east–central Utah are widely used as an archetype for the sequence stratigraphy of marginal-marine and shallow-marine deposits.

ABSTRACT At the Huacas de Moche (HdM), one of the most prominent archaeological sites in Trujillo, Peru, the needs of an expanding modern community are in direct conflict with the desire to preserve the wealth of archaeological information. The undetermined extent of the HdM site introduces disputes in land usage where potential archaeological features

The first stratigraphic column in South Africa, from Hondius (1652), and its modern correlatives
In 1647 the Dutch ship Haarlem, en route from Batavia to the Netherlands Republic, was wrecked in Table Bay. The survivors were encamped over the next year before they were rescued in a fort they constructed called Sandenburgh.

This paper provides a new facies model of gravelly cyclic steps that includes a facies model of lee side and variations deposited from hyperpycnal and surge‐type high‐density turbidity currents. Abstract Gravelly cyclic steps formed by turbidity currents have recently been widely recognised in the geological record.

Seismic stratigraphy and history of deep circulation and sediment drift development in Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea [PDF]
Drilling results and seismic-reflection records at and across Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Sites 645 (western Baffin Bay), 646, and 647 (Labrador Sea) provide important constraints on the history of deep-water circulation and sedimentation in response to

This study integrates and expands the U–Pb detrital zircon dataset from the Colton fluvial system to highlight spatial variations in provenance signals within the early Palaeogene infill of the south‐western Uinta Basin, in Utah. The provenance data sheds light on the origin of clastic sediment and on the relationship with potential palaeodrainage ...

Late Jurassic extension, footwall uplift, erosion and karstification of marine Jurassic carbonates in the western Cameros Basin (Spain) resulted in the deposition of ?Upper Kimmeridgian‐Tithonian syntectonic alluvial fan deposits and a series of ?Tithonian to Berriasian distal alluvial marls, palustrine, lacustrine and finally lagoonal carbonates.
