PALEONTOLOGY AND EVOLUTIONARY LINEAGES OF THE DIAGNOSTIC BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL GENUS ORTHOKARSTENIA [PDF]
This work is focused on the members of the Late Cretaceous-Early Paleogene (K-Pg) diagnostic benthic foraminiferal genus Orthokarstenia which is regionally important in paleontology and stratigraphic correlations.

Employing magma ocean crystallization models to constrain structure and composition of the lunar interior [PDF]
The process of lunar magma ocean solidification provides constraints on the properties of distinct chemical reservoirs in the lunar mantle that formed during the early evolution of the Moon. We use a combination of phase equilibria models consistent with experimental results on lunar magma ocean crystallization to study the effect of bulk silicate Moon

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

Sedimentary Environment, Diagenesis, Sequence Stratigraphy, and Reservoir Quality of the Ilam Formation in Dezful Embayment and Abadan Plain in South-West Iran [PDF]
The Ilam Formation Cenomanian to Santonian in age is considered one of the main rock reservoirs of the Bangestan Group in the southwest of Iran. This formation mostly consists of carbonate rocks. To examine the sedimentary environment, diagenesis, sequence stratigraphy, and reservoir quality of Ilam Formation in Dezful embayment and Abadan Plain, four ...

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.

Digitizing the Sedimentary Record: Efficient Data Structures for Dynamic Stratigraphy
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.

Stratigraphy and eruption history of maars in the Clear Lake Volcanic Field, California
The Clear Lake Volcanic Field (CLVF) is the northernmost and youngest field in a chain of volcanic fields in the California Coast Range mountains. Effusive and explosive volcanic activity in the field has spanned at least 2.1 million years, with the ...
