The stratigraphy, correlation, provenance and palaeogeography of the Skiddaw Group (Ordovician) in the English Lake District [PDF]
A new lithostratigraphy is presented for the Skiddaw Group (lower Ordovician) of the English Lake District. Two stratigraphical belts are described. Five formations are defined in the Northern Fells Belt, ranging in age from Tremadoc to early Llanvirn.

First analytical evidence and replication of yet undescribed substantial change in gilding technology in the early modern period ‐ the replacement of imported red clay (bole) with locally available bauxite. Proof of its source ‐ Croatian Minjera, according to a unique find of mineral diaspore.

Sedimentology and fluvial styles of the uppermost Cretaceous continental deposits of the Austral-Magallanes Basin, Patagonia, Argentina [PDF]
The sedimentary infill of the Austral-Magallanes Basin since the onset of its foreland stage in the Lago Argentino region is dominated by deep-marine and coastal deposits. However, during the Late Cretaceous the basin accumulated a thick and poorly known

This paper provides a new facies model of gravelly cyclic steps that includes a facies model of lee side and variations deposited from hyperpycnal and surge‐type high‐density turbidity currents. Abstract Gravelly cyclic steps formed by turbidity currents have recently been widely recognised in the geological record.

Spatial evolution of Zagros collision zone in Kurdistan, NW Iran: constraints on Arabia–Eurasia oblique convergence [PDF]
Stratigraphy, detailed structural mapping and a crustal-scale cross section across the NW Zagros collision zone provide constraints on the spatial evolution of oblique convergence of the Arabian and Eurasian plates since the Late Cretaceous.

This study integrates and expands the U–Pb detrital zircon dataset from the Colton fluvial system to highlight spatial variations in provenance signals within the early Palaeogene infill of the south‐western Uinta Basin, in Utah. The provenance data sheds light on the origin of clastic sediment and on the relationship with potential palaeodrainage ...

Stratigraphy of Tithonian (Ohauan-Puaroan ) marine beds near Port Waikato, New Zealand, and a redescription of Belemnopsis aucklandica (Hochstetter). [PDF]
Some 1500 m of marine Ohauan and Puaroan strata in the Port Waikato region of New Zealand are restudied in an attempt to resolve lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic anomalies in published works.

Complexity penalized hydraulic fracture localization and moment tensor estimation under limited model information [PDF]
In this paper we present a novel technique for micro-seismic localization using a group sparse penalization that is robust to the focal mechanism of the source and requires only a velocity model of the stratigraphy rather than a full Green's function model of the earth's response. In this technique we construct a set of perfect delta detector responses,

An improved mapping of ice layer undulations for the IceCube Neutrino Observatory [PDF]
A precise understanding of the optical properties of the instrumented Antarctic ice sheet is crucial to the performance of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, a cubic-kilometer Cherenkov array of 5,160 digital optical modules (DOMs) deployed in the deep ice below the geographic South Pole.
