Global Series and Stages for the Ordovician System: A Progress Report

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2005
There is no global standard set of chronostratigraphic/geochronologic subdivisions for the Ordovician System/Period. British series/epochs are often used as de facto nomenclature on stratigraphic correlation charts and geologic time scales. However, they

Geotechnical Characteristic Assessments of Floodplain Soils Using SCPTU Data in Nanjing, China

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
In order to improve the understanding of such floodplain sediments and determining the validity of the tests, an extensive series of multifunctional seismic piezocone tests with pore pressure dissipation phase have been performed and supplemented with ...

The stratigraphy and origin of the portaskaig boulder bed series (Dalradian) [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Journal, 1965
AbstractThe late Pre‐Cambrian Portaskaig Boulder Bed Series shows a very uniform sequence for some 600 km along the Caledonian strike, from Connemara on the west coast of Ireland to Aberdeenshire in Scotland. The Series, which is divided into four groups of beds, comprises numerous individual boulder beds separated by stratified sediments.

An integrated biostratigraphy and seismic stratigraphy for the late Neogene continental margin succession in northern Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Our aim has been to develop an integrated biostratigraphy and seismic stratigraphy for the Pliocene and Pleistocene formations (Ariki, Mangaa, Giant Foresets) in northern Taranaki Basin to better understand the evolution of the modern continental margin ...

Sequence stratigraphy and uranium mineralization model of uranium-bearing rock series in the southern margin of Erlian Basin

open access: yes矿业科学学报, 2018
Based on drilling data, seismic sections and sample test results, the theory of continental to sequence stratigraphy was applied to investigate uranium accumulation of the Early Cretaceous uranium-bearing rock series in the southern margin of Erlian ...

The Geomorphological and Geological Structure of the Samaria Gorge, Crete, Greece—Geological Models Comprehensive Review and the Link with the Geomorphological Evolution

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The Samaria Gorge is a dominant geomorphological and geological structure on Crete Island and it is one of the national parks established in Greece. Due to the complex tectonics and the stratigraphic ambiguities imprinted in the geological formations of ...

High resolution carbon isotope stratigraphy of the basal Silurian stratotype (Dob's Linn, Scotland) and its global correlation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Since its designation as the Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the base of the Silurian System, the choice of Dob's Linn, Southern Scotland, has received criticism due to the difficulties of relating its well constrained graptolite ...

Depositional Sedimentary Facies, Stratigraphic Control, Paleoecological Constraints, and Paleogeographic Reconstruction of Late Permian Chhidru Formation (Western Salt Range, Pakistan)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The Upper Indus Basin, in Pakistan’s western Salt Range, is home to the Zaluch Gorge. The sedimentary rocks found in this Gorge, belonging to the Chhidru Formation, were studied in terms of sedimentology and stratigraphy, and provide new insights into ...

Cenozoic evolution of the eastern Black Sea: a test of depth-dependent stretching models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Subsidence analysis of the eastern Black Sea basin suggests that the stratigraphy of this deep, extensional basin can be explained by a predominantly pure-shear stretching history.

Application of palynological data to the chronology of the Palaeogene lava fields of the British Province: implications for magmatic stratigraphy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
New high-precision ages, determined from palynomorph assemblages within intercalated sedimentary deposits, are presented for the Palaeogene lava fields (Skye, Mull and Antrim) of the British Province. These data reveal very rapid averaged eruption rates (
