Microbial mats in dinosaur ichnocoenoses

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Until now, the significance of microbial mats in preservation of dinosaur tracks and in reconstructing the palaeoenvironment in which dinosaurs roamed was rarely studied. Dinosaur tracks are commonly found close to ancient aquatic bodies where moist sediment had once allowed footstep registration.

Sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on rock coast shore platforms

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite tufa deposits being widely distributed and increasingly recognised globally on rock coasts, their distribution in the tidal frame and geomorphology is poorly understood. The distribution, sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on supratidal rock coasts are assessed and their controls established.

Sedimentary record of submarine gravity‐flow events in the southern Ryukyu forearc during the last 200 000 years: archive of mega‐earthquakes and tsunamis

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite high convergence velocity, the southern Ryukyu subduction has relatively low and sparse instrumental seismicity, in contrast with the Yaeyama Islands, hit by huge tsunamis over the last few thousand years. This study explores the potential of deep marine sediments to record past large earthquakes and tsunamis.

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

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
