Microbial mats and thalassinid shrimp: Spatial and geochemical interactions in a modern intertidal environment

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research examines the spatial and geochemical interactions between mat‐forming microorganisms and thalassinid shrimp in an intertidal flat situated on the shores of Willapa Bay, Washington, USA. The study serves as a contemporary analog for the relationships between mats and burrowing organisms in deep time.

Aligned hydrothermal fluid‐flow pathways in Middle Permian near‐shore marine sediments beneath a basaltic lava flow

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tubular and curviplanar structures, outlined by the occurrence of haematite/goethite, chlorite, quartz and albite, are developed in the Middle Permian Broughton Formation in the southern Sydney Basin, New South Wales, Australia. These structures are interpreted as fluid‐flow pathways resulting from the ejection of heated pore fluids as a thick

Experimental observations of vertical segregation of sands in oscillatory flows

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measurements assessing the composition of bed sands under oscillatory flows were conducted in the large wave flume (Großer Wellenkanal, GWK) in Hannover, focusing on diverse sand mixtures. The experiments featured velocity‐asymmetric flows with a consistent wave period of 7 s, while considering two distinct wave heights (1 and 1.5 m). The sand

Protracted intercontinental aridification preserved within the early Late Cretaceous strata of the Eastern Gobi Basin, Mongolia

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mongolia's Eastern and Western Gobi Basins preserve a globally significant record of Cretaceous terrestrial vertebrates, yet their biostratigraphic correlations are complicated by a complex geological history. The Eastern Gobi Basin, a northeast‐southwest trending fault‐bounded rift system, includes several minor sub‐basins with distinct ...

The regional evolution of a dryland fluvio‐aeolian and lacustrine succession in response to allocyclic forcing: insights from the Early Permian Cutler Group, Utah, USA

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Preserved allocyclic signatures in the rock record often reflect basin‐scale climatic variability and serve as key proxies for correlating ancient dryland successions. The notion of climate cyclicity, however, remains largely untested on regionally constrained, outcrop‐calibrated studies.

Magnetostratigraphy and Source Characterisation Across the Early Miocene Unconformity, Northern Rocky Mountains, USA

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The early Miocene unconformity (EMU) formed during a transition in the tectonic regime of western North America that coincided with faunal diversification. The Railroad Canyon section in the northern Rocky Mountains provides a complete geologic record around this event. Our new magnetostratigraphic study in combination with published U‐Pb ages
