Local Structures of Se and Br in Cretaceous–Paleogene Boundary Sediments and Concentration Effects of Ferrihydrite Originating From Impact Ejecta

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Chemical states of Se and Br atoms in the KPg boundary sediments from Stevns Klint were studied using XAFS spectroscopy. The high concentrations of Se4+ could become an index of the degree to which the global environment was soiled with dust and ash derived from impact ejecta or volcanic eruptions.

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

open access: yesChina 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

Heterogeneous Exhumation Mechanisms in Neoproterozoic Collisional Metamorphism: P–T Constraints From Pelotas and Punta del Este Terranes, Southern Brazil and Uruguay

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Petrography, thermobarometry, and pseudosection modelling reveal peak metamorphic conditions of 3–7.5 kbar and 520°C–800°C in Tonian‐Cryogenian orthogneisses of the Dom Feliciano Belt. Metamorphic field gradients of 27°C/km–39°C/km and variable exhumation mechanisms support correlation of these units as remnants of a Himalayan‐type Piratini Orogeny ...

Late Campanian–Maastrichtian sequence stratigraphy from Kurdistan foreland basin, NE/Iraq

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2018
The Kurdistan foreland basin (NE Iraq) was formed as a result of the ophiolite–radiolarites obduction of the Iranian plate on the Arabian Plate. Extensive fieldwork for the determination of nine facies associations has been integrated with the planktonic

Refinement of the Quaternary seismic stratigraphy and analysis of buried glacial channels on the Labrador Shelf

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Laurentide Ice Sheet covered vast areas of North America during the Wisconsinan, including the Labrador Shelf, off the coast of eastern Canada. The shelf is characterized by glacial cross‐shelf troughs, which have been considered as predominantly eroded by the last ice advance.

Using synthetic models to understand the detecting ability of ground‐penetrating radar for water‐conducting structures in the bedrock of formerly glaciated site

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract Utilizing synthetic models for the interpretation of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) profiles can aid in the detection of hydrogeological structures by identifying their signatures. In this study, finite difference (FD) forward modelling was used to understand the detection ability of 50 MHz GPR for (1) the quaternary deposit–bedrock contact ...
