Sequence Stratigraphy towards its standardization—an important scientific scheme [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
In the Post-Exxon Era of sequence stratigraphy, various sequence models for the complex stratigraphic records with their response mechanisms are developed. All the models with strong pertinence are endowed, which lead to misapprehension in the conceptual

A new method to evaluate the effects of mechanical heterogeneity on fault architecture in sedimentary sequences

open access: yesNatural Gas Industry B, 2023
Geologists have long realized the important control of mechanical stratigraphy on fault nucleation, fault linkage and fault compartmentalization. However, uncertainties still exist concerning the mechanical heterogeneity of the stratigraphy because of ...

Hunger sweetens the beans: evidence of opportunistic feeding behaviour of the little owl (Athene noctua, Scopoli 1769) from Peloponnese, Greece

open access: yesRaptor Journal, 2022
The little owl (Athene noctua) is a common raptor in Mediterranean habitats. To acquire more information on its diet, this study identified cranial and post-cranial skeletal material from 70 owl pellets collected during the 2016 and 2017 breeding seasons.

Resolving the Tectonic Setting of South China in the Late Paleozoic

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
The tectonic setting of South China during the late Paleozoic is essential to understanding the geodynamics off the eastern margin of Pangea supercontinent due to its unique paleo‐position at the confluence of the Paleo‐Tethys and Panthalassic oceans ...

Digitizing the Sedimentary Record: Efficient Data Structures for Dynamic Stratigraphy

open access: yesJournal of Algorithms & Computational Technology, 2007
As the surface of the Earth evolves over geologic time sediment is transported from high mountains to low lying sedimentary basins, accumulating stratigraphy which stores a sedimentary record of past environments.

Probabilistic Flood Hazard Maps from Monte Carlo Derived Peak Flow Values—An Application to Flood Risk Management in Zamora City (Spain)

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
All flood hazard and risk assessment suffer from a certain degree of uncertainty due to multiple factors, such as flood frequency analysis, hydrodynamic model calibration, or flood damage (magnitude–damage functions) models. The uncertainty linked to the
