A sparsely encrusted hardground with abundant Trypanites borings from the Llandovery of the Velise River, western Estonia (Baltica) [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2016
The Päärdu hardground from the Telychian (Rumba Formation) of western Estonia is sparsely encrusted (0.4% of the studied surface) by possible tabulate corals, sheet-like bryozoans and discoidal echinoderm holdfasts.

Araguainha Dome, Brazil: A polygonal impact structure due to a complex pre‐impact regional structural framework

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the structural framework of the north–northwestern Paraná Basin in Brazil to test whether the pre‐impact structures in this region may have had any influence on the first‐order formation and morphostructure of the Araguainha impact structure (AIS).

Dynamics of Silurian Plants as Response to Climate Changes

open access: yesLife, 2021
The most ancient macroscopic plants fossils are Early Silurian cooksonioid sporophytes from the volcanic islands of the peri-Gondwanan palaeoregion (the Barrandian area, Prague Basin, Czech Republic).

Revisiting the Hummeln structure, Sweden—A shallow marine Cambrian impact structure

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Hummeln is a simple impact structure located in south‐eastern Sweden. It is approximately 1.2 km in diameter and almost completely covered by a lake. Here, we present the first detailed investigation of impactites and mapping of the 164.25 m deep drill core Hummeln‐1 with a focus on impact metamorphism and the impact process.

Recognition of fossil keratose sponges in carbonates using petrographic and machine‐learning classification

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Filamentous, anastomosing spar‐filled networks in Phanerozoic carbonates have been interpreted as the mineralised remains of keratose (non‐spiculate) sponges, yet their recognition remains contested because fabrics of broadly similar appearance may arise from microbial, diagenetic or physical processes. This study combines direct fossil–modern

Cruziana traces from the Late Silurian (Pridoli) carbonate shelf of Saaremaa, Estonia [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014
Late Pridoli Cruziana traces have recently been found in carbonate shelf sediments of the Ohesaare Formation on Saaremaa Island, Estonia. Cruziana isp. is interpreted here as a locomotory trace (repichnia) of an arthropod, possibly a trilobite.

Reservoir characterization and exploration potential of shale reservoir near denudation area: A case study of Ordovician–Silurian marine shale, China

open access: yesOpen Geosciences
The distribution of denudation areas has brought huge risks to the exploration and development of deep buried shale gas resources. The reservoir characterization and exploration potential near denudation areas is of great significance to the evaluation ...

Some new palynomorphs from the Silurian of the Quetame Massif, Cordillera Oriental, Colombia, South America

open access: yesBoletín Geológico, 1994
During a palynological investigation of Paleozoic series in the Colombian Cordillera Oriental Silurian-indicating fossils were found in Colombia. In this paper we describe four palynomorphs which were significant for the Silurian of the Quetame Massif.

Different desorption types and geological influencing factors of Silurian shale gas in southeastern Sichuan Basin

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi
The southeastern Sichuan Basin is a key area for the exploration and development of Silurian shale gas in China. In recent years, a number of shale gas wells have achieved good exploration results in this area, providing important support for the ...
