Biogeochemical characterization of micritized carbonate grains in the shallow‐marine Al‐Kharrar Lagoon (Red Sea, Saudi Arabia)

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Micritization of marine carbonate grains is an early diagenetic process involving the alteration of the original carbonate fabric and the formation of cryptocrystalline textures through cycles of dissolution and reprecipitation. Microorganisms play a significant role in this process, actively contributing to the formation of constructive and ...

Development and factors controlling tropical carbonate barrier island systems—Bar Al Hikman; mid‐late Holocene, Oman

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern carbonate barrier island systems are crucial coastal geomorphological features increasingly affected by human activities and global environmental change. Predicting their evolution is essential for effective coastal management. In addition, in the subsurface, palaeo‐barriers may hold valuable reservoir potential; however, due to complex

The biostratigraphy of the Albian and Cenomanian succession in the Ventnor No. 2 borehole, Isle of Wight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This report describes the foraminifera found in the uppermost part of the Gault, Upper Greensand, Glauconitic Marl and West Melbury Marly Chalk of Ventnor No.2 Borehole (the "Carstone of the Isle of Wight" was barren of calcareous microfaunas).

Resolving allogenic forcings on shallow‐marine sedimentary archives of the Taiwan Western Foreland Basin

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An investigation of allogenic forcings on shallow‐marine strata of the Miocene–Pliocene Kueichulin Formation, Taiwan Western Foreland Basin, reveals that shifts in palaeoenvironments were strongly controlled by: (1) orogenesis and basin subsidence, (2) precession‐driven hydroclimate and (3) obliquity‐driven atmospheric and ocean circulation ...

The impact of a freshwater diluted plume on spatial halite accumulation in a hypersaline lake: Direct observations from the Dead Sea

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of freshwater inputs and salinity gradients in hypersaline basins is crucial for understanding the formation of evaporitic sequences. However, this role remains poorly understood, as it involves complex processes such as mixing across density gradients, plume dynamics and air–water interactions.

Sedimentological and biofabric patterns for hybrid coquina deposits: Insights from wave tank experiments

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hybrid bioclastic/siliciclastic coquinas are sedimentary accumulations typical of coastal‐ and shallow‐water settings, where wave breaking, longshore drift and wave shoaling drive sediment transport and control the final accumulations. These processes resulted in thick packages of sediments, as identified in the Lower Cretaceous depositional ...
