PETROGRAPHY AND THERMODYNAMIC REACTIONS OF SOME OF THE ROCKS IN THE BANKET SERIES OF THE TARKWAIAN SUPERGROUP [PDF]
The Banket Series, which is a paleoplacer deposit, is the third formation in the stratigraphy of Tarkwaian Supergroup. This project seeks to study petrographically; the lithologies in the banket series to confirm the rocks identity as already known or ...

Dielectric properties and stratigraphy of regolith in the lunar South Pole-Aitken basin: Observations from the Lunar Penetrating Radar [PDF]
We examine data obtained by the Lunar Penetrating Radar (LPR) onboard the Chang'E-4 (CE-4) mission to study the dielectric properties and stratigraphy of lunar regolith on the far side of the Moon. The data collected from January 2019 to September 2020 were processed to generate a 540 m radargram.

Lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene of Mazaterón (Soria, Spain)
Abstract The assemblage of lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene locality of Mazaterón (Spain) is described. Considering the rather limited material available for the study, the assemblage shows a moderate diversity with eight taxa corresponding to five different families.

Stochastic resetting by a random amplitude [PDF]
Stochastic resetting, a diffusive process whose amplitude is "reset" to the origin at random times, is a vividly studied strategy to optimize encounter dynamics, e.g., in chemical reactions. We here generalize the resetting step by introducing a random resetting amplitude, such that the diffusing particle may be only partially reset towards the ...

Quaternary stratigraphic regionalization and comprehensive framework in Nanling and adjacent areas
The Quaternary sediments in the Nanling and adjacent areas are dominated by alluvial, eluvium and cave deposits, which have lacked of a unified stratigraphic and chronological framework.Based on the results of field survey and research on profiles, the ...

Sensitivity of isochrones to surface mass balance and dynamics
The interior of an ice sheet consists of layers of accumulated snow, which contain important information on accumulation and ice dynamics that are imprinted on layer shapes over time.

Multi-scale virtual field experience: sedimentology and stratigraphy of Grand Ledge, Michigan, USA [PDF]
Field experiences are a critical component of undergraduate geoscience education; however, traditional onsite field experiences are not always practical due to accessibility, and the popularity of alternative modes of learning in higher education is ...
